Important Information About Your Projector

Important Safety Information

WARNING: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your

eyes. Never let children look into the lens when it is on. Never open any cover on the projector, except the

lamp and filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the projector can severely injure you. Except as

specifically explained in this User’s Guide, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing

to qualified service personnel.

WARNING: The projector and its accessories come packaged in plastic bags. Keep plastic bags away from

small children to avoid any risk of suffocation.

Caution: When you replace the lamp, never touch the new lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue

left by the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.

Remote Control Information

You can operate the projector by remote control via a line-of-sight infrared (IR) receiver at the front and rear

of the projector. The projector may not respond to remote control commands under the following conditions:

❐There is an object between the remote control IR emitter and the IR receiver on the projector.

❐Ambient light is too bright.

❐Certain types of fluorescent lighting are used.

❐A strong light source shines into the IR receiver.

❐Other equipment that emits infrared energy, such as a radiant room heater, is in the room.

These conditions commonly cause problems for most infrared-controlled equipment. Try the following:

❐The remote control unit’s batteries may be low on power; replace them.

❐Dim the ambient lighting and/or turn off any fluorescent lights.

❐Close any window coverings and/or move the projector out of direct sunlight.

❐Turn off other equipment that emits infrared energy.

If the remote control still does not work properly, remember you can always control your computer-based

presentation directly from the computer, even in an environment containing one of the conditions listed above.

Introduction

Your PowerLite®projector is a brilliant, lightweight, portable

projector that allows you to project full-color images and video onto a

large screen for presentations. You can connect it simultaneously to

three image sources: two computers or workstation sources, plus one

video source, such as a VCR or camcorder. You can also connect audio

for each image source.

Images are displayed in full color (16,770,000 colors) at an SVGA

resolution of 800 ×600 pixels on the PowerLite 5300, or an XGA

resolution of 1024 ×768 pixels on the PowerLite 7200 and PowerLite

7300. The projector supports a wide variety of video inputs, from

VGA to SXGA with resolutions up to 1280 ×1024. It produces bright

images that can be easily seen in rooms light enough to take notes.

Your projector’s two speakers employ a built-in 3D Sound System for

rich, powerful audio output. You can even connect an external speaker

when further amplification is required.

5300.book Page 1 Tuesday, April 13, 1999 4:19 PM

Introduction

For your presentations, you can select front, rear, or ceiling projection.

This provides maximum flexibility in choosing the best display

method for each environment.

You control your projector through a hand-held remote control unit,

with menus provided for image source switching and image

adjustment. The remote control can also act as a wireless mouse to

control operations on your computer screen during presentations.

Additionally, you can install the projector’s ELP Link III software to

control the projector’s settings from your computer and enhance your

presentations with special effects.

Your projector features a new patented SizeWise™chip for support of

VGA, SVGA, XGA, and SXGA output. No matter what type of

computer output is used, the result is a full-size video image of

outstanding clarity.

The projector supports a wide range of computers and workstations:

IBM® compatible PCs and laptops, Apple®Macintosh,

Power

Macintosh,

™and PowerBook™computers, and workstations such as

the Sun®SPARCstation™(The PowerLite 5300 is not recommended

for use with high-end workstations). The video source can be NTSC,

PAL, or SECAM. The projector automatically senses the video format,

which can be composite video, S-Video, or component video. See

Chapter 7 for details on supported computers and video formats.
