Caution

To reduce the risk of injury to the eyes, do not look directly into the remote
control laser light and do not point the laser light into anyone’s eyes. The
remote control is equipped with a Class II laser that emits radiation.

To operate the remote control, point the remote at the projection screen or at the
projector (not at the computer). The range of optimum operation is about 15 feet
(4.5m).

To use the laser pointer, press and hold the Laser button. The laser turns off when
the button is released, or times out after two (2) minutes of continuous operation.

Pressing the remote’s power button when the projector’s power toggle switch is in
the Off position does not cause the projector to power up. You need to put the
projector’s power toggle switch in the On position to use the remote to power on
the projector.

When the projector is running, you can press the remote’s Power button to place
the projector in the Off state and power it off. For more information, see “Shutting
down the projector” on page 4-7.

Left and right remote mouse buttons are used to mimic the actions of the left and
right mouse buttons on your computer. Mouse cursor movement is managed via
the remote’s cursor control. Connect a USB cable to the USB connector on the
computer and to the projector to use these buttons and control your computer’s
mouse. When you do this for the first time, the Add New Hardware wizard may
appear. See “Using the projector with Windows 98” on page 2-4 for details on
loading the correct USB drivers.

Press the remote’s Menu button to open the projector’s menu system. Use the
arrow buttons to navigate, and the Select button to select features and adjust
values in the menus. See Chapter 5, “Using the menus”, on page 5-1 for more
information on the menus.

The remote also has Volume and Mute buttons to control the sound, a backlight
button to light the remote’s buttons in the dark, and Video and Computer buttons
to switch between sources.

Two presentation-specific features are also provided. Use the Blank button to
display a blank screen instead of the current slide (you can choose which color is
displayed, see “Settings menu” on page 5-5); use the Effect button to invoke a
user-definable action, such as freeze, zoom or change your aspect ratio for viewing
DVDs (see “Settings menu” on page 5-5) to learn to program this button).
