*1 When the standby mode is set to eco, network functions such as power on over the LAN network will not operate, and the serial output terminal cannot be used. Also, only certain commands can be received for external control using the serial terminal.

*2 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO 21118 international standards.

*3 WUXGA resolution is supported only when the signals are compliant with VESA CVT-RB (Coordinated Video Timing-Reduced Blanking).

*4 With legs at shortest position.

*5 Operation range differs depending on environments.

• The value for L (distance to screen) varies slightly within ±5% depending on the zoom lens characteristics.

• The zoom lens characteristics may cause slight image distortion.

• When vertical keystone correction is used, the image is corrected in the direction that reduces its projected size.

• The brightness varies depending on the zoom setting.

Note: When the fixed-focus lens ET-ELW21 is mounted, the optical lens shift function cannot be used.

List of compatible signals

The signals that can be input to this projector are shown in the table below. Horizontal scanning frequencies of 15 kHz to 100 kHz (15 kHz to 120 kHz for RGB signals), vertical scanning frequencies of

24 Hz to 120 Hz (48 Hz to 100 Hz for RGB signals), and a dot clock of 162 MHz maximum (230 MHz maximum for RGB signals) can be input.

NOTE: The native resolution of this projector is 1,024 × 768 pixels. If the display resolution of the input signal is different from the native resolution, image compression or expansion will be used to convert the input signal to a level within the native resolution.

CAUTION

• It may not be possible to send or receive commands for about 10 to 60 seconds when the lamp is first turned on. If this occurs, wait for 60 seconds, then try sending or receiving again.

• When sending multiple commands, be sure to wait for at least 0.5 second after receiving a response from the projector before sending the next command.

• Additional time is sometimes required for response due to processing inside the projector. Set the time-out period for command response to 10 seconds or more.

• When using two or more units, set different IDs for each unit.

Notes on projector placement and operation

The projector uses a high-wattage lamp that becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the following precautions.

1.

Never place objects on top of the projector.

2.

Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 1,000 mm (3 feet 3 inches) or more around the projector’s exhaust openings.

3.

Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another for the purpose of multiple (stacked) projection. When stacking projector units, be sure to provide the amount of space indicated below between them. These space requirements also apply to installations where only one projector unit is operating at one time and the other unit is used as a backup.

4.

Make sure that nothing blocks the projector’s air intake and exhaust openings. Also, install the projector so that cool or hot air from other air conditioning equipment does not flow directly toward the projector’s air intake or exhaust openings.

5.

Do not install the projector in an enclosed space. If it is necessary to install it in an enclosed space, add a separate ventilation system. If ventilation is insufficient, hot air will accumulate at the intake opening. This may cause the projector’s protective circuit to interrupt projector operation.

6.

If the projector is installed in an enclosed space, ensure that the projector’s intake and exhaust openings are not blocked. Take particular care to ensure that hot air from the exhaust openings is not sucked into the intake openings.

7.

When installing the projector in any manner other than floor mounting with the adjuster legs, use the five threaded ceiling mount holes (screw diameter: M6, projector interior thread length: 12 mm) to secure the projector.

1000 mm ( 3 f t 3 in ) or more

500 mm

(1 f t 8 in ) or more

1000 mm

( 3 f t 3 in ) or more

500 mm

(1 f t 8 in ) or more

Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another.

Operating the projector continuously

1. If the projector is to be operated continuously 12 hours or more, lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter.

2. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short periods.
