Chapter 1. Installation and user’s guide

Introduction

The iL1210 IBM

®

MicroPortable Projector is specifically designed for the

mobile presenter. It generates crisp, clear images using Digital Light

Processing (DLP) technology and features an M1-DA connector. The projector

is easy to connect, use, transport, and maintain.

Image resolution

The XGA resolution of the iL1210 projected image is 1024 x 768. The projector

is compatible with screen resolutions up to 1280 x 1024. If your computer

screen resolution is higher than 1280 x 1024, reset it to a lower resolution

before you connect the projector.

Note: The iL1210 automatically expands 640 x 480 and 800 x 600 images to

1024 x 768. You can display these images at their native resolutions

using the Resize option in the Image menu. See “Image menu for

computer sources” on page 20.

Compatibility

The projector is compatible with a wide variety of computers and video

devices, including:

v IBM-compatible computers, including mobile computers, up to 1280 x 1024

resolution.

v Apple Macintosh and PowerBook computers up to 1280 x 1024 resolution.

v Most standard VCRs, DVD players, HDTV sources, camcorders, and laser

disc players.

Note: The projector is compatible with 1080i and 720P HDTV formats.

Unpacking the projector

The projector comes with the items shown in the following illustration. Check

to make sure that all items are included. Contact your dealer immediately if

anything is missing.

If you are experienced in setting up presentation systems, use the Quick Start

card that was included with this option. For complete details on connecting

and operating the projector, refer to the User’s Guide on CD.

Usage guidelines

Observe the following guidelines when using the projector.

Caution: Do not look directly into the projection lens when the lamp is turned

on. The bright light might harm your eyes.

Attention: Follow these guidelines for handling the projector.

v Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the airflow can cause it

to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must wait one minute before

attempting to turn it back on.

v Handle the projector as you would any other product with glass

components. Be especially careful not to drop it.

v Avoid leaving the projector in direct sunlight or extreme cold for extended

periods of time. If this happens, allow it to reach room temperature before

use.

v Transport the projector in a carrying case. See ‘‘Accessories’’ in Appendix A

for information on ordering accessories for your projector.

Chapter 1. Installation and user’s guide 3

Setting up the projector

Before turning on your projector, make sure all connections are made. Use the

following procedure to set up the projector:

1. Place the projector on a flat surface.

v The projector must be within 3 meters (10 feet) of your power source

and within 1.8 meters (6 feet) of your computer.

v If you want to project from behind a translucent screen, set up the

projector behind the screen. See “Rear projection” on page 24 for

instructions on reversing the image.

2. Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.

v If the image is too big or too small, set the zoom ring to adjust the size

or move the projector forward or backward. Once you have made all

connections described in this section, you can make adjustments. The

following illustration shows three projected image sizes. For more

information about image size, see “Appendix E. Projected image size”

on page 47.

coaxial cable connection. DO NOT use this to connect to the projector.

1. Plug the yellow composite video cable connector into the Video Out

connector on your video player. This connector might be labeled To

connector to the Video Out connector on the video player.

2. Plug the square yellow connector into the Composite Video connector on

the projector.

Note: High Definition Television (HDTV) sources must be connected to the

projector using the computer cable (not the video cable).

1Video cable
