Detailed Usage Guide

Machine
How to charge the machine
Plug the machine’s charging cable into the DC15V (18) charging port and then plug the cable into the power adaptor. Plug the power adaptor into a polarized wall outlet. Be sure to charge fully before each use. The Charging Indicator Light (4) will turn on to indicate charging.

How to turn on the machine
There are two steps to powering on the Illuminate Q4
Flip the Machine Power (26) switch towards the side labeled On to turn the machine on.
Then push the Projector Power (12) button to turn on the projector.
The Power Indicator Light (5) will turn on.

How to turn the machine off
There are two ways to turn the machine completely off.
A. Press the Projector Power (12) button again and flip the Machine Power (26) switch towards the side labeled Off.
B. Press the Power button on the remote control. Be sure to flip the Machine Power switch back into the off position before storing.
Please note that pressing the Projector Light (11) button will only put the projector in sleep mode. Pressing this button does not turn the machine itself off.

How to adjust the machine’s volume
Spin the Machine Volume knob clockwise to increase the machine’s volume and counterclockwise to decrease it. If the projector light is on, a bar will also appear indicating volume level.

How to access the machine’s settings
Please note: The machine’s settings are distinct from the Smart OS settings. For more information on the Smart OS settings, please see the ‘Smart OS ‘section.

You can enter the machine settings in one of three ways: by pressing the Settings (K) button on the remote, by pressing the Menu (14) button on the machine’s control panel, or by navigating to the “Settings” tile in the DMP system.

How to alter the machine’s settings
Once you are in the settings menu as instructed above, you will be able to use the side Navigation Controls on the remote (B) or the machine (8) to switch between “Picture,” “Sound,” and “Option” modes.

“Picture” mode adjusts the screen’s contrast, brightness, color, sharpness, temperature, aspect ratio, and noise reduction.

“Sound” allows you to choose from present settings which optimize the sound balance for different types of media.

“Option” allows you to modify the display language, obtain software updates, and reset the machine to its factory defaults.

You can use the up and down Navigation Controls in conjunction with the OK (9 or G) button to select specific settings in this mode, the side Navigation Controls again to shuffle through each setting, and the OK button once more to select the setting of your choice. Press the Return button on the remote control (C) or panel (10) to return to the previous screen or the Home (E) button to return to the Smart OS system.

Projector
How to begin setting up the projector
A. Carefully remove the machine’s lens cover
B. Power on the machine as instructed in “How to turn on the machine” above.
C. Connect to your preferred WiFi network (see the “How to connect to WiFi” section below)
D. Place your projector in front of a projector screen or blank wall (see chart below)

How far from the screen should you place the projector?
Your projector should be 3 to 10.4 feet from your screen depending on the desired screen size. Please see the accompanying size and distancing chart.

Please note that this chart is an approximate guideline. All distances and sizes might vary by up to 3% depending on keystone, focus, brightness, etc.

How to reduce image distortion

Aim your projector as close to the center of the screen as possible.

For a square or rectangular image, the projector should be as close to the same height as the center of the screen as possible. If the projector is below the screen, please adjust the keystone accordingly (see “How to adjust the keystone” below).

How to adjust the keystone
When the projector beam is at an angle to the screen, the result can be a distorted or trapezoidal image. The Lens Keystone (2) can adjust this shape to accommodate the angle. Spinning the Lens Keystone to the right (when one is behind the machine) will pitch the image up while spinning it to the left will pitch the image down.

How to adjust the focus
The Lens Focus is adjusted by the Lens Focus (1) ring. Spin ring to the left (when standing behind the machine) if the projector is too far from the screen. Spin the Lens Focus ring to the right if it is too close.

How to adjust the angle of the projector machine itself

The Illuminato Q4 comes with a large angle adjustment knob at the bottom front of the machine. Twist the knob to raise or lower the front angle of the machine.

PLEASE NOTE: If the knob is twisted too far, it will unscrew completely from the base, and the machine will become unstable. Use caution, twisting it a little at a time until the desired angle is reached.

How to turn off the projector light/How to put the projector in sleep mode

To use the machine’s speaker with the projector light powered down, press the Projector Light (11) button. This function works best for Bluetooth and Aux playback modes. To reactivate the light, simply press the Projector Light (11) button again.

Microphone
How to turn the microphone(s) on/off
Long press the translucent button on each of the microphones to turn them on or off. When the microphone is powered on, the button should light up.

How to replace the microphone batteries

Turn the microphone off. Flip the microphone so the head is facing perpendicularly towards you and the battery panel on the back is facing upward. Using your thumb, slide the panel on the bottom back of each microphone away from you so that it exposes the batteries. Remove the panel completely before removing the old batteries. Install 2 fresh AA batteries with their positive ends facing towards the bottom of the mic.
Slide and lock the battery panel back into place.

How to adjust the microphone volume
To adjust the volume level for the microphones, turn the knob labeled Mic Vol (7) on the machine’s function board to your desired volume level.

Alternatively, you can use the pill slider on each microphone to adjust their volumes individually. Move the pill slider up to increase that mic’s volume and down to decrease it.

How to add a third microphone

You can add a third microphone to the Illuminato Q4 in the following ways

A. For wired microphones or wireless microphones with plug-in adaptors, simply plug the microphone into the appropriate port, either the 6.5 mm Input (22) port for 6.5 mm mics or the USB Slot (16 or 19) for USB mics.

B. For Bluetooth microphones, turn the microphone to pairing mode, and go to “Accessories” in the SmartOS settings. Select your Bluetooth mic to pair.
