Preparing the Projector
This chapter explains how to install the projector and connect projection sources.
Installing the Projector
Installation Methods
The projector supports the following four different projection methods.
Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location.
• Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)
• Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projec‐ tion)
• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceil‐ ing projection)
• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from behind a translucent screen.
(Rear/Ceiling projection)
Warning
• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.
• If you use adhesives on the Ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector.
When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.
• Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.
Attention
Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.
a
• An optional ceiling mount and attachment plate are required when suspending the projector from a ceiling.
s
• The default Projection setting is Front. You can change from Front to Rear from the Configuration menu.

• Install the projector so that it is parallel to the screen.
If the projector is installed at an angle to the screen, keystone distortion occurs in the projected image.
• Place the projector on a level surface.
If the projector is tilted the projected image is also tilted.
Screen Size and Approximate Projection Distance
Projection size is determined by the distance from the projector to the screen. See the illustrations on the right to select the best position according to the screen size. The illustrations show the approximate shortest distance at maximum zoom. See the following for more information on the projection distance.

Summary of correction procedure
When multiple projectors are set up and you need to make corrections, use the following procedure to correct one projector at a time.
1. Set the projector ID.
Set a unique projector ID for the target projector so that you can limit which projector is being corrected.
2. Correct the color difference.
You can carry out color correction when projecting from multiple projectors.
You can adjust from black to white in five stages called levels 1 to 5, and in each of these 5 levels you can adjust the following two points.
• Correcting brightness
You can correct the image brightness to make them all equal.
• Correcting color
You can correct the image color so that they match closely.
Correcting the Color Difference when Projecting from Multiple Projectors
When multiple projectors are lined up and projecting images, you can correct the brightness and color tone of each projector's image with multiscreen color adjustment so that the colors of images from each projector match closely.
a
In some cases the brightness and color tone may not match completely even after correction.
Setting an ID and using the remote control
By setting an ID for each projector, you can limit which projector is operated from the remote control.
You can set an ID for the projector within a range of "1" to "9". The default value is Off.
On the remote control, select the Projector ID from 0 to 9 for the projector you want to operate. The following examples show the combination of IDs for the Projector ID and the ID selected with the remote control.

Data is encrypted with a code key (WEP key). This mechanism prevents communication unless the encrypted keys for the access point and the projector match.
• WPA
This is an encryption standard that improves security which is a weak point of WEP. Although there are multiple kinds of WPA encryption methods, this projector uses TKIP and AES.
WPA also includes user authentication functions. WPA authentication provides two methods: using an authentication server, or authenticating between a computer and an access point without using a server. This projector supports the latter method, without a server.

Maintenance
This chapter provides information on maintenance procedures to ensure the best level of performance from the projector for a long time to come.
Cleaning
112
You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.
Caution
Turn off the projector's power before cleaning. Otherwise, it could cause an electric shock.
Attention
Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it can easily become damaged.
Cleaning the Projector's Surface
Clean the projector's surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth.
If the projector is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing a small amount of neutral detergent, and then firmly wring the cloth dry before using it to wipe the projector's surface.
Attention
Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner to clean the projector's surface. The quality of the case may change or become discolored.
Cleaning the Air Filter
Clean the air filter and the air intake vent when the following message is displayed.
"The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent, and clean or replace the air filter."
Attention
• If dust collects on the air filter, it can cause the internal temperature of the projector to rise, and this can lead to problems with operation and shorten the optical engine's service life. Clean the air filter immediately when the message is displayed.
• Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.
Cleaning the Lens
Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses to gently wipe the lens.
Warning
Do not use sprays that contain flammable gas to remove dust and lint from the lens. The projector may catch fire due to the high internal temperature of the lamp.
Cleaning
a
• If a message is frequently displayed, even after cleaning, it is time to replace the air filter. Replace it with a new air filter.
s
"Replacing the Air Filter" p.117
• It is recommended that you clean these parts at least once every three months. Clean them more often than this if using the projector in a particularly dusty environment.
113
Replacing Consumables
This section explains how to replace the lamp and the air filter.
Replacing the Lamp
Lamp replacement period
It is time to replace the lamp when:
• The following message is displayed.
"It is time to replace your lamp. Please contact your Epson projector reseller or visit www.epson.com to purchase."
• The lamp indicator flashes orange.
The message is displayed for 30 seconds.
114
• The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
Attention
• The lamp replacement message is set to appear after the following time periods in order to maintain the initial brightness and quality of the projected images.
Lamp operating life: about 3900 hours
• If you continue to use the lamp after the replacement period has passed, the possibility that the lamp may explode increases. When the lamp replacement message appears, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if it is still working.
• Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning the power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.

How to replace the lamp
The lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a ceiling.
Warning
• When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may be broken. If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that the lamp is cracked, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Be careful when removing the lamp cover as shards of glass may fall out and could cause an injury. If any shards of glass get into your eyes or mouth, contact your local physician immediately.
• Never disassemble or remodel the lamp. If a modified or disassembled lamp is installed in the projector and used, it could cause a fire, electric shock, or an accident.
Caution
Wait until the lamp has cooled down sufficiently before removing the lamp cover. If the lamp is still hot, burns or other injuries may result. It takes about one hour after the power has been turned off for the lamp to be cool enough.
a
After you turn off the projector's power and the confirmation buzzer beeps twice, disconnect the power cord.
b
Wait until the lamp has sufficiently cooled down, and then remove the lamp cover at the top of the projector.
Loosen the lamp cover fixing screw with the screwdriver supplied with the new lamp unit or a cross-head screwdriver.
Then slide the lamp cover straight forward and lift it to remove.

The ratio between an image's length and its height. Screens with a horizontal:vertical ratio of 16:9, such as HDTV screens, are known as wide screens.
SDTV and general computer displays have an aspect ratio of 4:3.
A method that separates the video signal into a luminance component (Y), and a blue minus luminance (Cb or Pb) and a red minus luminance (Cr or
Pr).
A method that combines the video signal into a luminance component and a color component for transmission down a single cable.
The relative brightness of the light and dark areas of an image can be increased or decreased to make text and graphics stand out more clearly, or to make them appear softer. Adjusting this particular property of an image is called contrast adjustment.
to equipment connected to a network.
An acronym for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. An international standard that defines image standards and a communications protocol for medical images.
This is a server (router) for communicating across a network (subnet) divided according to subnet mask
HDCP is an abbreviation for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. It is used to prevent illegal copying and protect copyrights by encrypting digital signals sent over DVI and HDMI ports. Because the HDMI port on this projector supports HDCP, it can project digital images protected by
HDCP technology. However, the projector may not be able to project images protected with updated or revised versions of HDCP encryption.
An abbreviation for High-Definition Television that refers to high-definition systems which satisfy the following conditions.
• Vertical resolution of 720p or 1080i or greater (p = Progressive
of 16:9
A method for wireless LAN connection in which devices communicate through access points.
Transmits information needed to create one screen by sending every other line, starting from the top of the image and working down to the bottom.
Images are more likely to flicker because one frame is displayed every other line.
A number to identify a computer connected to a network.
Projects information to create one screen at a time, displaying the image for one frame. Even though the number of scan lines is the same, the amount of flicker in images decreases because the volume of information has doubled compared with an interlace system.

High-Definition Television.
An abbreviation for Simple Network Management Protocol, which is the protocol for monitoring and controlling devices such as routers and computers connected to a TCP/IP network.
An international standard for color intervals that was formulated so that colors that are reproduced by video equipment can be handled easily by computer operating systems (OS) and the Internet. If the connected source has an sRGB mode, set both the projector and the connected signal source to sRGB.
SSID is identification data for connecting to another device on a wireless LAN. Wireless communication is possible between devices that correspond to SSID.
This is a numerical value that defines the number of bits used for the network address on a divided network (subnet) from the IP address.
A screen size standard with a resolution of 800 (horizontal) x 600 (vertical) dots.
A method that separates the video signal into a luminance component (Y) and a color component (C).
A screen size standard with a resolution of 1,280 (horizontal) x 1,024 (vertical) dots.
The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images are not of a good quality. The process of matching the phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and the troughs in the signal) is called
Synchronization. If the signals are not synchronized, flickering, blurriness, and horizontal interference occur.
The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images are not of a good quality. The process of matching the frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called Tracking. If Tracking is not carried out correctly, wide vertical stripes appear in the signal.
This is the IP address
for the destination computer used for error notification in SNMP.
A screen size standard with a resolution of 640 (horizontal) x 480 (vertical) dots.
A screen size standard with a resolution of 1,024 (horizontal) x 768 (vertical) dots.
