BenQ recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you
should physically test the projection size and distance using the actual
projector before you permanently install it, so as to make allowance for this
projector’s optical characteristics.This will help you determine the exact
mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.

Notice (when edge blending)
· To avoid the image shaking or some pixels in the display may be misaligned,
do not use the projector in the following location: · In a building close to a
construction site. · In a room where an air conditioner unit is working and it
vibrates. · In a place where the temperature changes dramatically that may
cause thermal contraction.
· Before making any adjustment, leave the projector lit for at least 45
minutes after its light source is turned on. This allows he internal
temperature of the projector to stabilize.
Adjusting the Zoom/Focus
You may turn the zoom ring to zoom in or out. To focus the image, rotate the
focus ring until the image is clear. The projector will focus at distances.

Connection
Before connecting
· Before connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for connecting
the external device · Turn off the power to all devices before connecting
cables. · Take note of the following before connecting cables. Failure to do
so may result in
malfunctions. · Before connecting a cable to the projector or to a device that
is connected to the
projector, touch any nearby metallic objects to remove any static electricity
from your body. · Do not use unnecessarily long cables to connect the
projector or a device to the projector. Using a longer cable that is wound
makes it act like an antenna, making it more susceptible to noise. · When
connecting cables, connect GND first and then insert the connecting terminal
of the connecting device.
· Acquire any connection cables necessary to connect external devices to the
system that are not supplied.
· The images on the screen may wobble if the video signal contains too much
jitter. In this case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
· If synchronization signal outputs from computers or video equipment are
disrupted due to changes in the video output settings or any other reasons,
the colors of projected images may be temporarily disrupted.
· The projector accepts video signals, Y/C signals, YCBCR/YPBPR signals,
analog RGB signals (synchronization signals are TTL level), and digital
signals.
· Some computer models are not compatible with the projector. · Use a cable
compensator when you connect devices to the projector with long cables. If a
cable compensator is not used, the image may not display properly.

3D Color Management
In most installation situations, color management will not be necessary, such as in classroom,
meeting room, or lounge room situations where lights remain on, or where building external
windows allow daylight into the room.
Only in permanent installations with controlled lighting levels such as boardrooms, lecture
theaters, or home theaters, should color management be considered. Color management provides fine color control adjustment to allow for more accurate color reproduction, should
you require it.
Proper color management can only be achieved under controlled and reproducible
viewing conditions. You will need to use a colorimeter (color light meter),
and provide a set of
suitable source images to measure color reproduction. These tools are not provided with
the projector, however, your projector supplier should be able to provide you with suitable
guidance, or even an experienced professional installer. The Color Management provides six sets (RGBCMY) of colors to be adjusted. When you
select each color, you can independently adjust its range and saturation according to your
preference.
If you have purchased a test disc which contains various color test patterns and can be used to
test the color presentation on monitors, TVs, projectors,
etc. You can project any image from the disc on the
screen and enter the 3D Color Management menu to
make adjustments.

only pure red in the projected picture will be selected. Increasing its range
will include red close to yellow and red close to magenta.
5. Press to highlight Saturation and adjust its values to your preference by
press /. Every adjustment made will reflect to the image immediately. For
example, if you select Red and set its value at 0, only the saturation of pure
red will be affected.
