1. What’s in the Box? and the Names of the Projector Parts
   1-1. Features
   · DLP Cinema® projector
   Complies with the strict projection standards defined by the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) industry group in the United States using leading imaging technology of NEC. It also supports 3D projection and high frame rates (HFR).
   · Employs a long life laser light source
   The projector employs a newly developed laser light source offering excellent reliability and redundancy. Since the laser light source has a long life, this delivers low cost operation by removing the need for maintenance such as replacing and adjusting the light module over extended periods of time. Furthermore, it reduces the risk of the light source suddenly shutting off and leaving a black screen.
   · Delivers reduced installation space and increased freedom through a more compact and lightweight body
   The use of a 0.69″ DLP cinema chip together with integration of the light module into the projector main unit both delivers a reduced installation area as well as improving the degree of freedom of installation, such as removing the need to connect to external ventilation ducting and supporting both pedestal-mounted and ceiling-suspended installation. A wide variety of optional lenses (sold separately) are also available for the projector in order to support a wide variety of installation methods (a lens is not mounted when the projector is shipped from the factory).
   · Equipped with easy to use functions
   (1) Lens memory function and light memory function that can be operated with one touch. The projector is equipped with a lens memory function that can save the zoom position and shift position of the lens and a light memory function that can save the brightness setting separately for each input signal. This makes it possible to project using preconfigured settings simply by selecting the signal when projecting multiple different input signals each with different screen size and brightness settings (Refer to “6-9. Related products list” (page 79) for details on the lenses that support the lens memory function).
   (2) Built-in automatic adjustment function that makes the brightness and color of the light source uniform Degradation of brightness and variations in color that occur as the light source is used for longer periods of time are kept to a minimum (the period over which variations in brightness can be limited varies depending on the brightness setting).
   12

1. What’s in the Box? and the Names of the Projector Parts
(3) Frequently used titles can be registered in preset buttons The projector has been equipped with 8 preset buttons that make it easy to select registered title (input signal). To this projector, 100 titles at most can be registered (input signal registration). Among the registered titles, any 16 titles can be assigned to the preset buttons.
(4) You can operate and configure the projector via a network from a PC You can operate and configure the projector via a network from a PC by using the separately supplied software Digital Cinema Communicator (DCC) V2.
· Advanced Dust Protection
A dust control shield is arranged between each DMD chip of R, G and B, and the spectroscopic/condenser prism. It prevents dust and dirt in the air, and oily particles in smoke associated with event halls from coming into contact with the face of the DMD and causing operating problems.
· Reduced running cost thanks to the use of metal filters
The filters are made of metal, so they can be used repeatedly and do not have to be replaced when performing periodic cleaning. This not only reduces running costs, but also contributes to preserving the environment since no spent filters are discarded.

5. Maintenance of Your Projector
   NOTE Please request your dealer to perform cleaning of the projector inside.
   5-1. Cleaning the Cabinet
   Before carrying out maintenance of your projector, be sure to always check that the projector is turned off and the power plug is unplugged from the electrical outlet. · Wipe with a dry, soft cloth without nap.
   When the cabinet is excessively dirty, wipe with cloth well wrung after being dampened with a neutral detergent diluted with water and then finish up with a dry cloth. When you use a chemical dust cloth, follow the instructions in the manual attached to it. · Do not use a solvent, such as thinner or benzene. The coating may deteriorate or peel off. · When removing dust on the ventilation opening, suck it off using an adapter with a brush on a vacuum cleaner. Never allow the cleaner without an adapter to come into direct contact or use a nozzles adapter in cleaning. · Clean the ventilation opening at regular intervals. Dust, if allowed to accumulate there, may cause heating inside, which leads to functional trouble. The interval, which can vary with the location of your projector, is about 100 hours. · Do not damage the cabinet by scratching it or allowing hard objects to hit it. This can scratch the projector. · Consult your dealer/distributor about cleaning the inside of the projector. NOTE Do not allow insecticide or other volatile liquid to splash on the cabinet, lens or screen. Also, do not allow any rubber or
   plastic object to remain in contact with the cabinet for a long time. The coating may deteriorate or peel off.
