Setup

Getting the Projector Ready

To set up the projector:

  1. Power up the projector by flipping Projector Deluxe™ HD’s Power Switch to the on position and then pressing the Projector button.

  2. Position Projector Deluxe™ HD in front of your projection screen, making sure that the lens is facing the screen. The closer that Projector Deluxe™ HD is to the projection screen, the smaller the projected video will be. You’ll get a clear picture when the size of the projected video is between 4 feet and 16 feet.
    Note: The lens should be at the same height as the center of the projected video (as pictured below).

  3. Focus the lens as needed by turning the Focus Ring until you achieve a clear picture.

Some tips on using the projector:

  • The projector will work best when used in a dimly lit environment.
  • White is the ideal color for the surface of the projection screen.
  • The lens should be perpendicular to the projection screen. If Projector Deluxe™ HD is not sitting on a level surface, you can correct the angle of the lens by using the Keystone Adjustment or by raising/lowering the adjustable foot on the bottom of the unit.
  • When you are done using the projector, fasten the included lens cap to the lens. If you are having trouble, use the Focus Ring to make sure that the lens is extended enough in order for the lens cap to latch onto it.

Listening to Music from a Bluetooth Device

When Projector Deluxe™ HD is paired with a Bluetooth device (such as a smartphone), it can play music from the device through its speaker. You can play music from the Bluetooth device while the projector is on and operating or while the projector is off.
To pair with a Bluetooth device:

  1. Turn on your Bluetooth device and power on Projector Deluxe™ HD, which will automatically begin the pairing process (Projector Deluxe™ HD is always in pairing mode).
    • You will know that Projector Deluxe™ HD is not yet paired to a Bluetooth device if the Bluetooth LED is blinking.
  2. Navigate to the Bluetooth device’s setup screen. Then find and select Projector Deluxe™ HD.
  • You will know that Projector Deluxe™ HD is paired with your Bluetooth device when the
  • Bluetooth LED is lit solid blue. Also, the speaker will play a brief tone once the pairing is complete.
  • Note: If your Bluetooth device prompts for a pairing code, enter “0000”.
  • Note: If you have previously paired to the Bluetooth device, you may be able to skip Step 2 and simply wait for it to connect with Projector Deluxe™ HD after powering on.
  • To disconnect the paired Bluetooth device, press and hold the Bluetooth button.
  • To pair with a different Bluetooth device, repeat step 2 after disconnecting from the first device.
  • During the pairing process, it may help to move the first device out of range or to disable its Bluetooth capacity.
  • Note: Maximum range will be achieved when using devices with Bluetooth 5.0.
  • Note: Users should consider updating their Bluetooth device’s operating system if experiencing trouble with pairing or playing music.

Listening to Music from an Auxiliary Device

  • You can play music from an auxiliary device (such as an iPod or other MP3 player) through Projector
  • Deluxe™ HD. You can play music from the auxiliary device while the projector is on and operating or while the projector is off.
  • To play an auxiliary device through Projector Deluxe™ HD:
  1. Use a standard 1/8” / 3.5 mm cable to connect the output jack on your aux device to the Aux Input on Projector Deluxe™ HD.
  2. Use the controls on your auxiliary device to play/pause a track, skip tracks, etc.

Note: If the sound from your auxiliary device is distorted, try lowering the volume on the device.
The volume on your auxiliary device should not be at full level.
Using a Microphone

  1. Connect the included microphone to one of the two MIC inputs.
  2. Turn the microphone switch to ON.
  3. Adjust the volume from the top panel using the +/- MIC volume buttons and the +/- main Volume (VOL) buttons.
  4. Press the ECHO button to enhance your voice.

Note: Two microphones can be used simultaneously (the second microphone not included).

Troubleshooting

  • If the unit is not charging: Make sure the power cable is properly connected to the power input and the power outlet.
  • If the sound is distorted: Try lowering the volume control of your sound source, musical instrument, or microphone. Also, try to reduce the overall volume of Projector Deluxe™ HD using the Volume controls.
  • If there is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control on your sound source to lower the bass level. This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs.
  • If there is a high-pitched whistling noise when using microphones: This is probably feedback. Point the microphone away from the speaker.
  • If you can’t hear the microphone over the music volume: Turn down the music volume from your source.
  • If you cannot connect your audio device to Projector Deluxe™ HD via Bluetooth:
  • Have your audio device (e.g., smartphone or tablet) and Projector Deluxe™ HD as close together as possible while trying to connect. Make sure both the audio device and Projector Deluxe™ HD are unobstructed by walls, furniture, etc.
  • Reset the Bluetooth connection on Projector Deluxe™ HD to disconnect Projector Deluxe™ HD from any other audio device and restart the search process. If this does not work right away, power off Projector Deluxe™ HD and then power it back on.
  • Reset the Bluetooth connection on your audio device by turning Bluetooth off and back on. You can find this under the Bluetooth menu in the Settings for your phone or other audio device.
  • If this does not work, and you have connected to Projector Deluxe™ HD before, find Projector Deluxe™ HD in the list of available or previously connected devices in your audio device’s Bluetooth menu, tap the “gear” or “i” icon located next to it and then select Unpair or Forget. Turn Projector Deluxe™ HD off and back on and try pairing again once it reappears in the list of your available devices.
  • Note: If Projector Deluxe™ HD has been paired to another audio device recently that is still within range, you may need to repeat this process with that audio device to fully disconnect.
  • How do I use the USB input for file playback? (1) Connect the USB flash drive to the USB port on the projector.

(4) Use the streaming device’s suggested controls to navigate content (e.g. remote control).
  • Can I connect a phone/tablet via HDMI? Yes. An adapter cable connector (sold separately) is needed. Consult your device’s manual for the recommended cables.

I see video but cannot hear audio:

  • Check the volume setting on your streaming device, software, and projector.
