Preface About this manual This manual is designed for use with the PREMIERE 50HD DLP Projector. Informa- tion in this document has been carefully checked for accuracy; however, no guaran- tee is given to the correctness of the contents. The information in this document is subject to change without notice. Copyright © Copyright 2003 This document contains proprietary information protected by copyright. All rights are reserved. No part of this manual may be reproduced by any mechanical, electronic or other means, in any form, without prior written permission of the manufacturer. Trademarks All trademarks and registered trademarks are the property of their respective own- ers. FCC COMPLIANCE This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the fol- lowing two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference. (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installa- tion. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful inter- ference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter- ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. • Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Preface NOTICES Warning! To meet FCC requirements, a shielded power cord is required in order to prevent interference. It is essential that only the supplied power cord be used. Use only shielded cables to connect I/O devices to this equipment. You are cautioned that changes or modifications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment. Warning! The projector cooling fan continues to run for approxi- mately two minutes after the projector is turned off using the Power button on the control panel or remote control. Never turn off the projector using the power switch on the projector while the lamp is lit. This can damage the lamp or power supply. Warning! High brightness light source. Do not stare into the beam of light, or view directly. Do not allow children to stare directly into the beam of light. Warning! To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. Caution! For minimal servicing and to maintain high image quality, we rec- ommend that you use the projector in an environment that is smoke and dust free. When used in areas where there is a lot of smoke or dust, the filter and lens should be cleaned often to lengthen the ser- vice life of the projector. Warning! The ventilation slots, lamp, and objects next to them may get extremely hot during operation. Do not touch these areas until they have sufficiently cooled down. Warning! When replacing the lamp, turn off the power switch and disconnect the input power. Allow the lamp to cool at least 15 min- utes prior to opening the lamp door.
Preface Warning! Be careful when removing the lamp. In the event of a lamp rupture there may be small fragments of glass in the lamp housing and the projector. Clean out the fragments as much as possible tak- ing care not to touch the fragments. Alternately, you can contact Technical Support to have the projector serviced.
Precautions When using the projector, refer to the following instructions : • Read and follow all instructions and warnings provided. • Save these instructions for future use. • When servicing or replacement parts are required, ensure work is done by a qualified technician. • Do not use this unit near water or in a rainy/moist environment, or near heat sources such as radiators, stoves, or space heaters. • Use supplied cables only. • Never insert any objects through ventilation holes. • The projector power cable is equipped with a three-prong plug for grounding. Do not alter the plug and defeat this safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate a three-prong grounding type plug, contact an electrician to replace it. • Only mount the projector on a tabletop or ceiling as recommended by the manufacturer. • Do not place the projector on an unstable cart or stand. • Allow at least 0.3 foot (10 cm) space between the ventilation slots and the nearest object or wall. • When the ventilation slots are obstructed, the projector lamp automatically turns off as a safety precaution. When this happens, the over temperature alarm LED will light. Remove the obstruction and push the power button again to return the projector to normal operating condition. Any electrical equipment is hazardous if handled improperly. Ensure that you follow the preceding safety instructions to avoid harm to yourself and damage to the unit. Note: The projector has an over temperature warning LED on the control panel. If the projector overheats because of a dirty filter or other problem, the LED will flash, and the projector lamp will turn off, after which a 2- minute cooling off period occurs. If, after correcting the over temperature condition and restarting the projector, the projector still doesnt function properly, contact technical support to arrange for service.
INTRODUCTION Chapter 1 Introduction Congratulations on selecting the Premiere 50HD DLP Projector. The Premiere 50HD DLP is the first mainstream projector to offer Silicon Optix AnyPlace™ technology, which provides flexibility in projector place- ment while displaying a high-definition image. The projector is equipped with a full set of I/O connectors, enabling you to attach a wide variety of input devices including Composite Video, S-Video, Digital Video Interface (DVI), Computer VGA, and Component Video. The control panel and remote control enable you to easily set up functions such as input source, aspect, gamma correction, and color temperature. The keystone fea- ture provides maximum flexibility in projector placement while still providing a flat image. The menu driven OSD (On-Screen Display) provides a suite of functions that enable you to set such items such as the source input device, gamma, brightness, contrast, clock, and phase. The RS-232 port enables easy upgrades to ensure that the projec- tor firmware is always up-to-date. The Silicon Optix image processor is incorporated in the design with its unique Any- Place™ technology, which adjusts for the vertical and horizontal projection angles to the screen, allowing users to place the projector anywhere in the room and still dis- play a perfect image. This eliminates the need for room remodelling, and enables the projector to naturally blend into a room. In addition to AnyPlace placement flexibility, the Premiere 50HD DLP projector delivers superior keystone and scaling image quality. The Premiere 50HD DLP Projector is supported by a standard two-year limited war- ranty.
