Introduction to the Projector
Thissectionintroducesyoutoyournewprojectoranddescribesthefeaturesandcontrols.
Congratulations on Your Purchase of the Projector
This projector is one of the very best projectors available today. The projector enables you to project precise images
upto300inches(110inchesonNP610S;104inchesonNP510WS)across(measureddiagonally)fromyourPCor
Macintoshcomputer(desktopornotebook),VCR,DVDplayer,ordocumentcamera.
Youcanusetheprojectoronatabletoporcart,youcanusetheprojectortoprojectimagesfrombehindthescreen,
and the projector can be permanently mounted on a ceiling*
