Projector Directions - Please read

Turning on and set-up: **See below for using your own laptop**

1. Lower the projection screen.

2. Plug in the cart power using the retractable power cord.

3. If you need network access connect the Ethernet cable on the cart to the Ethernet jack on the wall. The active wall jack is typically marked with a little round red sticker.

4. Remove the projector lens cover.

5. Turn on the projector’s “MAIN POWER” switch on the front, near the projector’s power cord (this turns on the main power and cooling fan)

6. Press the “POWER” button on the top control panel (this turns on the projection lamp - wait: it takes about 30 seconds for the lamp to warm up)

7. Press “INPUT” to select either the VCR (“VIDEO” appears on the screen) or computer (“RGB1” appears on screen). Turn on the VCR or laptop computer.

8. Power up the laptop. The image should appear on the projector.

9. Adjust the height of the image with the “LENS SHIFT” knob on top of the projector.

10. Adjust the picture size and focus with the controls on the top of the projector.

Using your own laptop computer:

3. If you need network access connect the Ethernet cable (in the drawer if you don’t have your own) to the Ethernet jack on the wall. The active wall jack is typically marked with a little round red sticker.
