Important Safeguards
These safety instructions are to ensure the long life of your projector
and to prevent fire and shock. Please read them carefully and heed all
warnings.
Installation
1. For best results, use your projector in a darkened room.
2. Place the projector on a flat, level surface in a dry area away from
dust and moisture.
3. Do not place your projector in direct sunlight, near heaters or heat
radiating appliances.
4. Exposure to direct sunlight, smoke or steam can harm internal com-
ponents.
5. Handle your projector carefully. Dropping or jarring can damage in-
ternal components.
6. Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector.
7. If you wish to have the projector installed on the ceiling:
a. Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
b. The projector must be installed by qualified technicians in order to ensure
proper operation and reduce the risk of bodily injury.
c. In addition, the ceiling must be strong enough to support the projector
and the installation must be in accordance with any local building codes.
d. Please consult your dealer for more information.
Power Supply
1. The projector is designed to operate on a power supply of 100-120
or 200-240 V 50/60 Hz AC. Ensure that your power supply fits this
requirement before attempting to use your projector.
2. Handle the power cable carefully and avoid excessive bending. A
damaged cord can cause electric shock or fire.
3. If the projector is not to be used for an extended period of time,
disconnect the plug from the power outlet.
Cleaning
1. Unplug the projector before cleaning.
2. Clean the cabinet periodically with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled,
use a mild detergent. Never use strong detergents or solvents such
as alcohol or thinner.
3. Use a blower or lens paper to clean the lens, and be careful not to
scratch or mar the lens.
CAUTION
Do not unplug the power cable from the wall outlet under any one
of the following circumstances. Doing so can cause damage to
the projector:
While the Hour Glass icon appears.
While the message "Please wait a moment." appears. This message
will be displayed after the projector is turned off.
Immediately after the power cable is plugged into the wall outlet (the
POWER indicator has not changed to a steady orange glow).
Immediately after the cooling fan stops working (The cooling fan con-
tinues to work for ONE minute after the projector is turned off with the
POWER button).
While the POWER and the STATUS indicators are alternately flashing.
CAUTION
Do not put the projector on its side when the lamp is turned on.
Doing so may cause damage to the projector.
Lamp Replacement
To replace the lamp, follow all instructions provided on page E-47.
Be sure to replace the lamp when the message "The Lamp has
reached the end of its usable life. Please replace the lamp."
appears. If you continue to use the lamp after the lamp has reached
the end of its usable life, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of
glass may be scattered in the lamp case. Do not touch them as the
pieces of glass may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC
dealer for lamp replacement.
Allow a minimum of ONE minute to elapse after turning off the pro-
jector. Then disconnect the power cable and allow 60 minutes to
cool the projector before replacing the lamp.
Fire and Shock Precautions
1. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation and that vents are unob-
structed to prevent the build-up of heat inside your projector. Allow
at least 3 inches (10 cm) of space between your projector and a
wall.
2. Prevent foreign objects such as paper clips and bits of paper from
falling into your projector. Do not attempt to retrieve any objects that
might fall into your projector. Do not insert any metal objects such as
a wire or screwdriver into your projector. If something should fall into
your projector, disconnect it immediately and have the object re-
moved by a qualified NEC service personnel.
3. Do not place any liquids on top of your projector.
Do not look into the lens while the projector is on. Serious damage
to your eyes could result.
Keep any items such as magnifying glass out of the light path of the
projector. The light being projected from the lens is extensive, there-
fore any kind of abnormal objects that can redirect light coming out
of the lens, can cause unpredictable outcome such as fire or injury
to the eyes.
Do not cover the lens with the supplied lens cap or equivalent while
the projector is on. Doing so can lead to melting of the cap and
possibly burning your hands due to the heat emitted from the light
output.
Do not look into the laser pointer while it is on and do not point the
laser beam at another person. Serious injury could result.

2. INSTALLATION
This section describes how to set up your MultiSync MT1055/MT1050/
MT850 projector and how to connect video and audio sources.
Setting up Your Projector
Your MultiSync MT1055/MT1050/MT850 Projector is simple to set up
and use. But before you get started, you must first:
1. Determine the image size.
2. Set up a screen or select a non-glossy white wall onto which you
can project your image.
Carrying the Projector: Always carry your projector by the handle.
Ensure that the power cable and any other cables connecting to video
sources are disconnected before moving the projector.
When moving the projector or when it is not in use, cover the lens with
the lens cap.

Attaching the lens cap to the lens hood
with the supplied string and rivet.
Selecting a Location
The further your projector is from the screen or wall, the larger the
image. The minimum size the image can be is approximately 30" (0.76
m) measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 4 feet (1.3 m)
from the wall or screen. The largest the image can be is 300" (7.6 m)
when the projector is about 36.8 feet (11.2 m) from the wall or screen.
Using a Tabletop or Cart
1. Place your projector on a flat level surface at the optimal dis-
tance from the screen or wall so you realize the size image you
want.
(Avoid having bright room lighting or sun light directly on the screen
or wall where youll be projecting the image.)
2. Connect the power cable, remove the lens cap and turn the pro-
jector on. (If no input signal is available, the projector will display a
background image.)
3. Ensure that the projector is square to the screen.
Lens cap
String
4. Move the projector left or right to center the image horizontally
on the screen.
5. To center the image vertically, lift the front edge of the projector
and press the One-Touch Tilt button on the front-left side of the
projector to release the Front Adjustable foot.

WARNING
Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a quali-
fied technician. Contact your NEC dealer for more information.
* Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector
falls to the ground, you can be injured and the projector se-
verely damaged.
Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The
projector must be used at temperatures between 32˚F (0˚C)
and 104˚F (40˚C).
Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This
will harm the screen image.
Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projec-
tor so heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the side or
the front of the projector.
If your projector is mounted on the ceiling and your image is upside
down, use the Menu and Select buttons on your projector cabinet or
▲▼ button on your remote control to correct the orientation. (See page
E-36.)
Reflecting the Image
Using a mirror to reflect your projectors image enables you to enjoy a
much larger image. Contact your NEC dealer if you need a mirror. If
youre using a mirror and your image is inverted, use the Menu and
Select buttons on your projector cabinet or ▲▼ buttons on your re-
mote control to correct the orientation. (See page E-36.)

Terminology
PC card
ATA card
CompactFlash
TYPE (I, II and III)
BMP
JPEG
This is the name of a card currently being standardized by the Japan Electronic Industry Association (JEIDA) and PCMCIA
(Personal Computer Memory Card Interface Association) of the United States.
A type of PC card. ATA was originally a type of interface between computers and fixed disk devices. The ATA card is a standard
card-type recording medium.
CompactFlash card is a small removable card conforming to ATA specifications. It is one-fourth the volume of a PCMCIA card.
PCMCIA 2.1 PC cards are divided into three types according to their thickness: Type I (3.3 mm), Type II (5.0 mm) and Type III
(10.5 mm).
A type of image format. The standard Windows Bit Map format used for MS-DOS/Windows-compatible computers.
A type of image format. "JPEG" is the abbreviation of Joint Photographic Experts Group. JPEG compression offers efficient
data storage. The data not required for displaying the image is identified and deleted. Since the data is deleted, JPEG
algorithms are said to be irreversible. This means that once the image is compressed, the decompressed image it is not the
same as the original image.

This section describes the simple maintenance procedures you should
follow to replace the lamp and clean the filter.
Replacing the Lamp
After your lamp has been operating for 1500 hours (2500 hours : Eco
mode) or longer, the Status light in the cabinet will go on and the
message will appear. Even though the lamp may still be working, re-
place it at 1500 (2500 hours : Eco mode) hours to maintain optimal
projector performance.
CAUTION
DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will
be extremely hot. Turn the projector off, wait a full minute, and then
disconnect the power cable. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to
cool before handling.
DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS except the lamp cover screw and two
lamp housing screws. You could receive an electric shock.
The projector will turn off and go into stand by mode after 1600 (2600
hours : Eco mode) hours of service. If this happens, be sure to replace
the lamp. If you continue to use the lamp after 1500 hours (2500 hours
: Eco mode) of use, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may
be scattered in the lamp housing. Do not touch them as the pieces of
glass may cause injury. If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for
lamp replacement.
To replace the lamp:
1. Loosen the lamp cover screw until the screwdriver goes into a
freewheeling condition and remove the lamp cover. The lamp cover
screw is not removable.

Cleaning or Replacing the Filters
The air-filter sponge keeps the inside of the MultiSync MT1055/MT1050/
MT850 Projector free from dust or dirt and should be cleaned after
every 100 hours of operation (more often in dusty conditions). If the
filter is dirty or clogged, your projector may overheat.
CAUTION
Turn off the power and unplug the projector before replacing the filter.
Only clean the outside of the filter cover with a vacuum cleaner.
Do not attempt to operate the projector without a filter cover.
Your projector will not operate unless the filter cover is installed cor-
rectly.
To clean the air-filter:
Vacuum the filter-through the filter cover.
