SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR USER Make sure to provide ground line from the ground terminal of the power plug. Otherwise, electric shocks may result. Always calculate the total loading of any installed equipment and ensure that the power supply, (sockets or other outlets) are suitable for the installation.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE Request to User Plastic Screen The P503DL screen is made of a plastic material and can be easily scratched. During manufacture and packing, every care is taken to ensure that no hard objects that could scratch or otherwise cause damage are allowed to touch the screen when opening the carton box and taking out the product.

ACCEPTABLE SIGNAL TYPE The following are acceptable input signal types. Projection unit automatically distinguishes mode according to frequency of input signal. All the signals accepted are displayed on screen with 1024x768 dot by internal resolution converter. The Digital Signal Link function may not support NTSC/PAL/SECAM signal supplied from RGB-1 and RGB-2 input terminal.

Note: Maximum length of the RS232C cable in total length is about 20-30 meters. If the length becomes much more than its specification, the communication error may occur. When some miss-reading of commands start to occur, then use better quality wire than its standa rd may reduce trouble and possible to extend the communication wire length.

screen lock is un-locked and open before attaching the screen. This is an example of 4 sets attached together by 2x2 configuration. When 4 sets are combined together with the screws fastened, a gap between cubes becomes small and also stable for entire wall. The internal locking screws need to be fastened while front screen has removed, carefully watching frame of each cubes.
DISASSEMBLE 1. HOW TO REPLACE THE LAMP Turn off the power switch and disconnect AC cord. Make loose 3 screws at the lamp door. Open Lamp door as right picture arrows show. 3) Rotate Locking Lever as shown as arrow (1) below. 4) Gently pull the lamp housing to the right as picture below, Lamp door screws...
AIR FILTER Air filter needs to be maintained periodically by washing it or replace when the filter is damaged. 1) Turn off the power switch and remove one screw. 2) Lift up and pull the air filter case from its pocket as arrow in the picture shows.

WIRING BETWEEN FUNCTION BLOCKS Note: Colors of drawing are not Representing the color of wires Note: 100W/120W lamp power selection ** selection of lamp power while lit will damage lamp** At the left side of the optical engine, there is a slide switch located and indicated that the lamp power switch is set to 100W position.
6. LIGHT ENGINE BLOCK CAUTION Be careful to prevent the ESD (Electro Static Discharge) before touching the DLP Engine. If ESD happened, important key components including DMD device may easily damaged. This electro-static destruction will not be covered by Texas Instruments guarantee. For ESD prevention, use conductive wrist strap and connect the wire to the metal frame of the projection engi ne.
ADJUSTMENT Locate the screw at the lens barrel to adjust focus Rotate thumb screw to counter clockwise, then move the screw head to and fro to rotate so that lens focus can be adjusted. Tighten the same screw to clockwise to fix the adjustment. Engine mount adjustment preparation Before doing Engine Mount mechanical adjustment, it is better to adjust an electronic position adjustment at the center.

4) Picture rotation adjustment Make loose of (J) screw and rotate the screw (A) and (B) to the same amount but the opposite direction so that picture rotation can be changed. If rotated to the same direction Vertical position will change. Tighten (J) after the adjustment.
Upper portion Pin-cushion adjustment This adjustment is to bent the mirror and make the adjustment, do not over do it. This adjustment is easy to do while cube is not assembled to wall but even assembled, it is possible to perform removing the screen of the cube, attached on it. Important Notice: Do not exceed the adjustment too much, when mechanism comes to an end of its adjustment area, there is no stopper mechanism provided and further forcing to do so will make fatal damage to the...
This remote control is compatible for most of Toshiba data-wall display cube. The GUI of cube commander is also similar layout of the push buttons so that once the position of these key pads are getting familiar, both can be used without any difficulty.

Saving adjustments Adjusted value will be memorized into its non-volatile memory when WRITE button is clicked. In case if the new adjustment value is not acceptable, simply shut off the power by rocker switch so that this new adjusted value will be erased and go back to “before adjustment”...
Display flat field test signal and press “cutoff” or “drive”, then adjustment is possible. In case of “offset” and “Gain” adjustments are placed at early signal process area and internal test signal is generated later stage than this adjustment, thus flat field test signal needs to generate from PC.
