Using the Remote Control
Before using the remote control, pull out the tape from the
battery tray as shown below.
When using the remote control, stand within 20 feet of the
projector. Point the remote control either at the front or back
of the projector or at the screen (the projector’s front sensor
can detect signals bounced off the screen). Press the button for
the function you want to use. See the following pages for
instructions.
Note
Most of the projector’s features can only be accessed with the remote
control. To avoid losing the remote control, place it in the remote
control storage compartment beneath the side of the projector.
Switching Between Picture Sources
If you’ve connected your projector to a computer and a video
source, you can use the buttons on the remote control to
switch between the different sources.
❏ Press the
Computer button to select your computer source.
❏ Press the
S-Video/Video button to select an S-Video or
standard composite video source.
After you select a source, the screen goes dark for a moment
before the image appears.
