Operating
the Sharp Video Projector
Turning on Projector
Connect computer cable to projector and
computer. Once the cable is connected turn on the projector first and
then the computer. The projector has 2 steps to turn on the power
supply:
- Press the power switch on the back of
the projector.
- Press the "on" button on top
of the projector.
If nothing is being projected check the
following:
- Projector Input selection –
check this by pressing the input selection button on top of the
projector. The current input selection will show up on the screen,
you should press the button until you see "RGB1"
- On your computer (laptops only) try pressing "FN" (function)
+ the numbered function key that has a picture of a monitor on or
above the key (usually – F3, F7 or F8). You may need to do this
twice.
- Computer Screen Resolution – If your screen
resolution is set higher than 800 x 600 you may need to reduce it
for the picture to be projected – do this in Windows by going to "my
computer", "control panel", "display",
"settings", "display area" – move the arrow to
the left until you see 800 x 600 and then "apply" the new
setting.
Turning off Projector
First turn off the computer, then press
the off button on top of the projector – the projector will then
prompt you to press the off button again if you are sure you want to
turn off the projector. After pressing the off button again the fan will
remain on for approximately 1 minute to cool the bulb. When the fan
stops press the power switch on the back of the projector, you may then
disconnect the cable. Please wait until the fan
has stopped before unplugging or disconnecting the projector!
