- Press the power button on the projector or the remote control to turn on the device.
Connecting Devices

- USB: Insert USB flash drives or external SSD hard drives into the USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 ports for media playback. You can also connect a mouse, keyboard, or gamepad for easier navigation and control.
- Network: Connect an Ethernet cable to the Network port for a stable internet connection.
- Audio Out: Use the 3.5mm headphone jack to connect external speakers or headphones.
Wireless Connectivity (WiFi Display)
The projector supports Airplay, Miracast, and DLNA for wireless screen mirroring from your smartphone, tablet, or PC. EShare is pre-installed for convenient wireless display.
- Ensure your projector and smart device are connected to the same WiFi network.
- Select the appropriate WiFi display option (Airplay for iOS, Miracast for Android/Windows, DLNA for compatible devices) from your device's settings or the projector's interface.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to establish the connection.
Focus and Keystone Correction
Achieve a clear and perfectly rectangular image using the following adjustments:
- Auto Focus: The projector features automatic focus adjustment.
- Remote Electric Zoom: Use the remote control to fine-tune the zoom level.
- Auto/Manual Vertical Keystone: The projector can automatically correct vertical trapezoidal distortion. Manual adjustment is also available.
- Manual Corner Keystone: For more precise image alignment, especially when projecting from an angle, use the manual corner keystone correction. This allows you to adjust each corner of the projected image independently.
Operating Instructions
Android 9.0 OS Navigation
The projector runs on Android 9.0, providing a smart interface similar to a smartphone or tablet. Use the remote control, or a connected mouse/keyboard, to navigate the menus and launch applications.
3D Functionality
The BYINTEK R17 supports Real 3D (DLP Shutter Active 3D) for an immersive viewing experience. To enjoy 3D content, you will need compatible active shutter 3D glasses (sold separately).
Projection Modes
The projector offers multiple projection modes to suit different setups:
- Front: Standard projection from in front of the screen.
- Rear: Projection from behind a translucent screen.
- Ceiling Front: Inverted projection for ceiling mounting in front of the screen.
- Ceiling Rear: Inverted projection for ceiling mounting behind a translucent screen.
MEMC and HDR10
The projector incorporates MEMC (Motion Estimation, Motion Compensation) technology for smoother video playback, especially for fast-moving scenes. HDR10 display technology enhances image details and color reproduction, providing a more vibrant and realistic picture.
Maintenance
General Care
- Keep the projector in a clean, dust-free environment.
- Clean the lens gently with a soft, lint-free cloth designed for optical surfaces.
- Ensure proper ventilation around the projector to prevent overheating.
- When not in use, store the projector in a protective case or cover.
LED Lamp Life
The projector uses an OSRAM RGB 3LED light source with an impressive lifespan of 50,000 hours. This means you can enjoy approximately 20 years of use if the projector is used for 4 hours per day, significantly reducing the need for lamp replacement.
Troubleshooting
- No Image/Poor Image Quality: Check all cable connections (HDMI, power). Ensure the lens is clean and adjust focus and keystone correction. Verify the input source is correctly selected.
- No Sound: Check the volume settings on both the projector and the connected device. Ensure external speakers are properly connected if used.
- Remote Control Not Working: Check battery levels in the remote. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the projector's IR receiver.
- WiFi Display Issues: Confirm both devices are on the same WiFi network. Restart both the projector and the casting device.
- App Compatibility: While the projector runs Android 9.0, some newer streaming applications may not be fully compatible or may require specific versions. Consider using external streaming devices connected via HDMI for broader app support.
- 3D Not Working: Ensure you are playing compatible 3D content and using active shutter 3D glasses.
User Tips
- For the best 3D experience, ensure you have active shutter 3D glasses, as they are typically not included with the projector.
- If you encounter issues with certain streaming apps or features like Chromecast, consider connecting an external streaming stick (e.g., Fire TV Stick, Roku, Apple TV) to the projector's HDMI port for broader compatibility and up-to-date app versions.
- When using the projector outdoors on battery power, keep an eye on the battery indicator. The 1.5-2.5 hour battery life is suitable for a single movie or a short presentation.
- Utilize the corner keystone correction feature for flexible placement, allowing you to project a perfectly rectangular image even when the projector is not directly centered with the screen.
