Safeguards

WARNING - Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in

death or serious injury.

Caution - Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in

minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not leave

appliance unattended while in use.

3. Never look directly into the projector lens when the lamp is on. The metal halide lamp produces

a strong light which could damage your eyesight.

4. Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.

5. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if the appliance has been dropped or

damaged – until it has been examined by a qualified service technician.

6. Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.

7. If any extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the

appliance should be used. Cords rated for less amperage than the appliance may overheat.

8. Always unplug appliance from electrical outlet before cleaning and servicing and when not in

use. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.

9. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse this appliance in water or other liquids.

10. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance, but take it to a qualified

technician when service or repair work is required. Incorrect assembly can cause electric shock

when the appliance is subsequently used.

11. Connect this appliance to a grounded outlet.

12. Do not expose this projector to direct sunlight, or use it outside.

13. Keep all ventilation openings free of any obstructions.

14. Always open the lens shutter when the projection lamp is on.

15. Do not look directly into light beam of laser pointer. The pointer produces a strong light which

could damage your eyesight.

16. The projection lamp contains mercury. Always dispose of it in a proper manner according to local

regulations.

2.3 System Set Up - connecting various equipment

Turn power off to all devices before making connections. Never plug anything into the projector or

computer while any device is in operation.

The MP8730 must be powered down when making connections. The mouse emulation may not work if

the unit is not powered down before the mouse cable connections are made.

2.3.1 Apple™Desktop Mouse - The Macintosh operating system should recognize the MP8730 as a mouse

without any drivers being loaded.

VirtualMouse for PC Computer - For IBM™ compatible computers, the operating systems will need to

be set to "Serial Mouse" or "PS/2 Mouse" to recognize the projector as a mouse pointer device

Change mouse driver information to "Serial Mouse" or "PS/2 Mouse."

a) Windows™95 - Click "Start"; select "Settings"; select "Control Panel". Click on "Mouse"; select the

"General" tab; (see what driver is currently loaded and make note of it); select "Change"; select

"Show all devices"; (make note of the current Manufacturer and Model); select "Standard Mouse

Type" for Manufacturer; then select "Standard Serial Mouse" or "Standard PS/2 Mouse." Click OK

to change and apply the new driver. Restart Windows when prompted.

b) Windows™3.1 - From "Program Manager" click "Main"; then click "Windows Setup", (make note of

what the current mouse driver is); Click "Options"; then "Change Systems Settings". Choose

"Mouse". It should be listed as "Microsoft or IBM PS/2".

✔Note

For proper mouse operation, always turn the projector power on first and then power up the computer.

For some laptop computers you may need to disable the internal pointing device (IPD). This is done through

the BIOS level set up of the particular machine, or it could be listed in a "Utilities" program group, i.e., "Toshiba

Utilities™," or "Thinkpad Features™."
