     8.1  SWITCH ON FROM STAND-BY
    By remote control: press one of 1...9
    By keyboard: press Arrow Up or Arrow Down.
    Fig. 32
    When switching on from stand-by, the projector will turn
    on the lamp (flashing green LED); after a brief warm up
    period the image will be displayed (green LED on).  The
    input automatically selected will be the last one memorised
    prior to switch off 
    (Fig. 32).
      8.2 SWITCHING OFF AND RETURNING TO STAND-BY
    By remote control: press 
    By keyboard: press key 
    When switching off, the projector goes in to stand-by (red
    and green LED flashing) memorising the input selection
    at the time of switch-off.
    The fans will continue to work until the lamp has cooled
    down. They will stop automatically after this period.
      8.3  FAILURE OF THE LAMP TO LIGHT
    Switching on from stand-by. If the lamp fails to come on
    (the projector will automatically make five attempts), an
    error will be registered by a flashing red LED. This can be
    reset by switching the power switch to position O.
    9. DESCRIPTION OF CONNECTIONS
    To obtain the best performance from your projector, we
    recommend the use of good quality “video cables” to the
    various signal sources (75 ohm Impedance).
    Poor quality cables will cause inferior picture performance.
    For optimum connectivity we recommend you follow these
    simple steps:
    - With exception of coaxial RCA/Phono type connectors,
    always double-check that the plug is inserted the correct
    way round to avoid damaging the plugs or the sockets
    on the projector 
    (Fig. 33).
    75 
    Fig. 33
    -   Remove cables by the plug and do not pull on the
    cable itself.
    - Avoid tangled cables.
    - Position the cables carefully to avoid a trip hazard -
    especially in low light areas 
    (Fig. 34).
    Fig. 34
    You may experience difficulties switching on
    the projector shortly after turning off into stand-
    by mode. This is not a fault. The lamp is still
    too hot for the switch-on procedure to take
    place.
    Wait a few minutes before turning on again (position I),
    this will allow the lamp to cool down to the correct tempe-
    rature.
    The life of the lamp is dependant on the number
    of times the projector is switched ON and OFF.

    10 INPUT SIGNALS
     10.1  COMPOSITE VIDEO INPUT
    CVBS 
    COMPOSITE VIDEO
    Fig. 35
    This input is suitable for a “Composite Video CVBS”. Via
    a cable with an RCA/Phono connector 
    (Fig. 35).
     10.2  S-VIDEO INPUT
    S-VHS
    S-VIDEO
    Fig. 36
    This input is suitable for equipment fitted with a S-Video output
    to give improved picture performance (S-VIDEO / S-VHS)
    Connection is made via a 4-pin mini-DIN  (
    Fig. 36).
      10.3 VGA INPUT
    Fig. 37
    Personal Computers, Video Processors (scalers) and Vi-
    deo Game consoles can be connected to the projector
    via the HDB 15-Pin (VGA) terminal. Ensure the output ofequipment connected is RGB with one of the following
    synchronisation options: separate H/V Sync, H+V Composite
    Sync, (RGsB) composite sync on the green signal (
    Fig. 37).
    This input accepts a Horizontal Scan Frequency of
    between 15-80 kHz and a Vertical frequency of between
    40-100 Hz. Computer Resolutions of VGA, SVGA, XGA,
    SXGA and UXGA can be displayed. The true native
    resolution of the HT200 is SVGA (800 x 600) and the true
    native resolution of the HT250 is XGA (1024 x 768).
    10.4  RGB/YCRCB INPUT
    RGSB - YS CR CBCOMPONENT 
    VIDEO
    Fig. 38
    This input is suitable for a RGB video signal, or for a
    Component Video (YCrCb) type, with composite
    synchronisation on the green signal (RGsB) or on the
    luminance (Y) signal (YsCrCb) through a cable with RCA/
    Phono type connector 
    (Fig. 38).
    Only horizontal scanning frequencies of 15 kHz (standard
    video resolution) or 32 kHz (high definition video, with pro-
    gressive scanning) can be applied to this input.
      10.5 REMOTE INPUT INTERFACE CONNECTING CABLE
    With a special cable (optional), it is possible to connect
    the Remote Input Interface (optional) to the projector.
    CAUTION: Connect/disconnect the special
    Remote Input Interface cable only when the
    projector is switched off and disconnected Upon switch on via the power switch, the projector
    will automatically detect the Remote Input Interface,
    identify which inputs are connected and these will
    be added to the Input selection on the menu. If a single signal is applied to the projector and
    that source was selected, the image coming
    from that input will be projected.
    If signals are applied to several inputs, you can
    select the desired input by one of the following
    methods:
    - browsing the Source Selection menu, by re-
    mote control or rear key pad
    - pressing the remote controls digit key
    corresponding to the desired input

    from the mains (switch in position O).
    This is not a vesa “Plug & Display” connector.
    never connect a computer to this socket. the
    projector and the computer may be damaged
    (Fig. 40).  10.7 RS232 INTERFACE CONNECTOR
    RS 232
    Fig. 42
    It is possible to control the projector through a personal
    computer. First, load the appropriate projector control
    software onto your PC, then simply connect this input to
    a cable from your PC’s RS232 serial port 
    (Fig. 42).
    The CD-ROM enclosed in the manual, provides all the
    information needed to prepare the PC for RS232
    connection, including the interface protocol and the
    communication software.
    Fig. 40
      10.6 MOTORISED PROJECTION SCREEN OUTPUT
    Fig. 41
    The projector is equipped with two outputs (Voltage: 12
    Vdc) for motorised projection screen and screen masking
    systems. These 12V outputs should be connected to the
    appropriate screen interface provided by the screen
    manufacturer 
    (Fig. 41).
    The +12V output is activated when the projector is
    switched on (green LED on) and is de-activated when the
    projector is in stand-by mode (red LED on).
    The output 
     is active when one of the following modes,
    from the Image Aspect Ratio Selection Menu, is
    selected: Normal, Letterbox and Zoom.
    The output is inactive when the Anamorphic mode is
    selected on the same Image Aspect Ratio Selection
    Menu.
    This output allows reduction in the area of a 16:9 screen,
    into a 4:3 format, by activating a screen masking system
    (refer to screen manufacturer for further information).

    If the remote control is not to be used for a long period of
    time remove the batteries. Replace all batteries at the
    same time; do not replace one new battery with a used
    battery. If the batteries have leaked, carefully wipe the
    case clean and replace with new batteries.
    The remote control sends commands to the projector via
    infrared signals.
    It is possible to control the projector by pointing the remote
    control at the screen; the sensor at the front of the projector will
    pick up the reflected infrared commands. 
    (Fig. 44).

    Avoid placing obstructions between the remote control
    and the infrared sensor at the front of the projector; this
    will impair the remote control performance.

    that the picture is not correctly positioned use the lens
    shift feature.
    Should it not be possible to centralize the image by
    adjusting the lens height, tilt the projector, but this will
