IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for your purchase of this quality product! For best performance, please read this manual carefully as it is your

guide through the menus and operation.

1. Read and Keep these instructions.

2. Heed all warnings.

3. Follow all instructions.

4. Do not use this apparatus near water. And not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

5. Clean only with a dry cloth.

6. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

7. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with

one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or

the third prong is provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electri-

cian for the replacement of the obsolete outlet.

8. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and the

point where they exit from the apparatus.

9. Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

10. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus.

When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus to avoid injury from tip-over.

11. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

12. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in

any way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the ap-

paratus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

13. The +12V trigger only outputs 12V DC signal for triggering. Do not connect to any other power input or output.

This could cause damage to this unit.

14. Keep the packing material in case the equipment should ever need to be shipped.

15. Never look into the lens when the projector is on.

Notes on Remote Control Operation

y In most situations, you can simply point the remote control at the screen which will reflect the IR signal from the re-mote back

toward the IR receiver on the projector. In some cases, however, ambient conditions may prevent this. If so, point the remote

control at the projector and try again.

y If the effective range of the remote control decreases, or it stops working, replace the batteries with new ones.

y The remote control may fail to operate if the infrared remote sensor is exposed to bright sunlight or fluorescent lighting.

13

DLP Projector - User’s Manual

To install batteries in the remote control

STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3

1. Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it.

2. Install two AA batteries with the correct polarity.

3. Replace the cover.

Notes on Batteries

y Make sure that the battery polarities are correct when installing the batteries.

y Do not mix an old battery with a new one or different types of batteries.

y If you will not use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to avoid damage from battery leakage.

Installation Considerations

Proper installation of your projector will ensure the quality of your display. Whether you are installing a projec-

tor temporarily or permanently, you should take the following into account to ensure your projector performs

optimally.

Ambient Light

In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the screen. Contrast ratio in your images will be noticeably

reduced if light directly strikes the screen, such as when a shaft of light from a window or floodlight falls on the image.

Images may then appear washed out and less vibrant.

Requires separate room Installation cost is usually higher.

Throw Distance

Throw distance is the distance measured from the front of the projector to the screen. This is an important calculation in

any projector installation as it determines whether or not you have enough room to install your projector with a de-sired

screen size and if your image will be the right size for your screen. You can quickly estimate the throw distance by taking

the width of the screen and multiplying it by the lens throw ratio; see the image as following. The result of this calcula-

tion tells you roughly how far back the projector should be positioned from the screen in order to project a focused im-

age large enough to fill the screen.

Screen Width (W)

Throw Distance (TD) = Screen Width (W) x Throw Ratio (TR)

Throw Distance (TD)

Two models of the D8800/D8900/D8010W are available, one with 1.56-1.86:1 lens and the other with 1.85-2.40:1 lens

With optional zoom adaptors throw ratios of 1.24 – 3.0 can be achieved. The standard D8800/D8900/D8010W offer

throw ratios between 1.85:1 and 2.40:1. With the optional, short-throw lens, the D8800/D8900/D8010W offer throw

ratios between 1.56:1 and 1.86:1.

Modes of installation

 Frontal projection - desktop installation

Advantages: easy to install can be easily moved or adjusted

easy to operate.

Disadvantage: occupies floor space and limits seating

capacity.

Projector

 Rear projection - desktop installation

Advantage: the projector is completely hidden from plain

view the projector can be easily operated this

setup usually offers better reduction of ambi-

ent noise.

Disadvantage: requires an additional room for installation

relatively higher costs for installation.

Projector

 Frontal projection - ceiling mode

Advantage: does not occupy floor space does not draw

attention to it. Eliminates the possibility that

someone would accidentally move the projec-

tor.

Disadvantage: stricter installation requirements and

conditions; care should be taken during

the installation to ensure the projector has

been securely mounted. Operation of the

projector becomes inconvenient without the

remote control.

Lens Shift

Vertical Lens Shift

The D8800/D8900/D8010W have a lens shift capability which allows the vertical movement of the image without mov-

ing the projector. Lens shift is generally expressed as a percentage of the screen height. For ceiling mounted projectors,

the lens can be moved 50% (0.6V) downward, while the lens can be moved 50% (0.6V) up or down on a desktop mount-

ed projector.

Connecting the projector to other devices.

Proceed as follows to connect the D8800/D8900/D8010W to your video sources, external controller(s) - if present - and

AC power. When connecting your equipment: •Use the correct signal cables for each source. •Ensure that the cables are

securely connected. Tighten the thumbscrews on connectors that have them. Connecting Source Components to the

D8800/D8900/D8010W Connect your video sources to the D8800/D8900/D8010W as shown and described in the sec-

tions that follow.
