INTRODUCTION

The InFocus®LP™425z and LP435z lightweight multimedia pro-

jectors are specifically designed for the mobile presenter. They

generate crisp, clear images using Digital Light Processing™

(DLP) technology. The projectors are easy to connect, easy to use,

and easy to maintain. The soft carry case makes it easy to trans-

port the 7.4 pound projectors. The 425z has SVGA 800x600 graph-

ics, the 435z has XGA 1024x768 graphics. The user interfaces of

the two products are identical; information in this User’s Guide

applies to both products.

NOTE: The 425z automatically

expands 640x480 images to

800x600. You can display these

images at 640x480 by turning off

the Auto Resize feature. See “Auto

Resize” on page 28.

expands 640x480 and 800x600

images to 1024x768. You can dis-

Usage Guidelines

•Do not look directly into the projection lens when the projector

is turned on. The bright light may harm your eyes.

•Do not block the grills on the projector. Restricting the air flow

can cause it to overheat and turn off. If this happens, you must

wait a minute before attempting to turn it back on.

•Handle the projector as you would any product with glass

components. Be especially careful not to drop it.

•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.

•This projector is not intended for use in mainframe computer

rooms as defined in the Standard for the Protection of Elec-

tronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment, ANSI/NFPA 75.

•Transport the projector in a vendor-approved hard or soft case.

Part numbers for these cases are listed on page 48.
