Connect the projector's AC power cord into an AC outlet. The POWER indicator becomes red. Press the POWER ON/STAND-BY button on the top control or on the remote control. The POWER indicator becomes green and the cooling fans start to operate. The preparation display appears on the screen and the count down starts. After the countdown, the input source that was selected the last time and the Lamp mode status icon (see page 48) appears on the screen. If the projector is locked with a PIN code, PIN code Input Dialog Box appears. Enter the PIN code as instructed below. 16 The preparation display disappears after 30 seconds. Selected Input Source and Lamp Mode Lamp mode (See page 48 for Lamp mode.) To Enter a PIN code Select a number by pressing the Point ed buttons, and then press the Point 8 button to fix the number and move the pointer. The number changes to "". If you fixed an incorrect number, move the pointer to the number you want to correct by pressing the Point 7 button, and then select the correct number by pressing the Point ed buttons. Repeat this step to complete entering a four-digit number. "134" is set as the initial PIN code at the factory. After entering the four-digit number, move the pointer to "Set" by pressing the Point 8 button. Press the SELECT button so that you can start to operate the projector. If you entered an incorrect PIN code, "PIN code" and the number () turns red. Enter the correct PIN code all over again. PIN Code Input Dialog Box What is PIN code? PIN (Personal Identification Number) code that allows the person who knows it to operate the projector. Setting a PIN code prevents unauthorized use of the projector. A PIN code consists of a four-digit number. Refer to the PIN code lock function in the Setting on pages 49 and 50 for locking operation of the projector with your PIN code. CAUTION ON HANDLING PIN CODE If you forget your PIN code, the projector can no longer be started. Set a new PIN code with special care, write it down in column on page 66 of this manual, and keep it at hand. Should the PIN code be missing or forgotten, consult your dealer or service center. Note: After the OK icon disappears, you can operate the projector. 18 · When the Input Search function is set on On1 or On, the input signal will be searched automatically (p.46) · When the Logo select function is off, the logo is not shown on the screen. (p.43) · When the "Countdown off" or "Off" is selected in the Display function, the countdown is not shown on the screen. (p.43) · During the countdown period, all operations are invalid. · If the correct PIN code number is not input for three minutes after the PIN code dialog box appeared, the projector is turned off automatically. Basic Operation Turning Off the Projector 1 2 Press the POWER ON/STAND-BY button on the top control or on the remote control, and a message "Power off?" appears on the screen. Press the POWER ON/STAND-BY button again to turn off the projector.The POWER indicator starts to blink red, and it continues while the cooling fans are operating for about 90 seconds.
