Usage Features:

The Lyte cube480 projector is designed for ease of use, offering several features for setup and operation:

Getting Started:

Power Supply and Charging: The projector uses a 5V 2A AC adapter for charging. It is recommended to use the included USB power adapter to ensure proper charging. A 5V portable power bank with 2A or more output can also be used. For first-time use, the projector should be charged for 3 hours before turning it on.
Turning On/Off: To turn on, press and hold the power button on the projector for 5 seconds. To turn off, press and hold the power button on the projector or the remote for 3 seconds. The remote's power button cannot power on the projector; it only works once the projector is already on.

Remote Control:

Bluetooth® Air Mouse Remote: The projector comes with a Bluetooth® Air Mouse Remote.
Pairing: For first-time use, the remote needs to be paired. This is typically guided by the system upon initial power-on. To pair, press and hold the OK button and the Volume - button on the remote simultaneously for 5 seconds until the remote control LED flashes rapidly. If manual pairing is needed, navigate to "Settings" -> "Bluetooth® setting" on the projector, then repeat the button combination on the remote and select "SONG-1" on the projector.
Air Mouse Mode: Press the Air Mouse button to turn Air Mouse mode on. Press any navigation button to turn it off.
LED Indicator:
- Slow flash: Unpaired mode.
- Fast flash: Enter pairing mode.
- Single flash: Each button press will flash once.
Battery: The remote uses 2 x AAA batteries. To open the battery cover, slide the case as shown in the manual. The remote will disconnect after a few minutes of inactivity to save battery; press any button to reconnect.

Adjustments:

Focus Adjustment: The projector has a focus adjustment mechanism (likely a wheel or slider) to sharpen the image.
Keystone Correction: To adjust keystone, go to "Settings" -> "Keystone". A red dot highlights the selected corner, which can be adjusted using navigation buttons on the projector or remote. Press OK to move to the next corner. Press Return or Home to confirm and exit. The Menu button can reset keystone to its original state.
Brightness Adjustment: The projector has two brightness modes: "Brightest mode" and "Standard mode". To change, go to "Settings" -> "Picture" -> "LED Brightness". For improved battery life, "Standard Mode" is recommended.

Connectivity:

Wi-Fi: Connect to a 5G or 2.4G Wi-Fi network via "Settings" -> "Wi-Fi".
Airplay (iOS/macOS):
- Via Wi-Fi: Ensure both the iOS/macOS device and projector are on the same Wi-Fi network. On the projector, open the 'iOS Cast' app and select 'iPhone' or 'Mac'. On the iOS device, slide up for the menu and select "Screen Mirroring" -> "CUBE480". On Mac, turn on Airplay from the top taskbar and select "CUBE480".
- Via Personal Hotspot (iOS): Turn on Personal Hotspot on the iOS device. On the projector, connect to the Wi-Fi shared by the Personal Hotspot. Then, on the iOS device, select "Screen Mirroring" -> "CUBE480".
Miracast (Android): On the projector, open the Miracast app. On the Android device, go to "Settings" -> "Display" -> "Cast" (or "More Settings" -> "Enable wireless display" depending on Android version). Select "CUBE480" to mirror the screen.

Youtube App: Select "Youtube" on the home screen to open. Requires an internet connection.

Uninstalling Apps: Go to "Settings" -> "General" -> "Application Management". Use the Air Mouse remote to point at the app, press and hold the Air Mouse button until a pop-up menu appears, then select "Uninstall".
