• 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
137
You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.
Attention
Turn off the projector's power before cleaning.
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 Obstacle Sensor
Clean the obstacle sensor when the message "Remove any obstacles that are interfering with the projection area." is displayed along with a warning sound. Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses to gently wipe the obstacle sensor.
Cleaning the Projection Window
Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses to gently wipe the projection window.
Warning
Do not use sprays that contain flammable gas to remove dirt and dust from the lens. The projector may catch fire because of the high temperature of the lamp inside the projector.
Warning
Do not use sprays that contain flammable gas to remove dirt and dust from the obstacle sensor. The projector may catch fire because of the high temperature of the lamp inside the projector.
Cleaning
Attention
Do not rub the obstacle sensor with harsh materials or subject the sensor to shocks.
Damage on the surface of the sensor may cause malfunctions.
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
• Dust collecting on the air filter may cause the internal temperature of the projector to rise, leading to a malfunction or early deterioration of optical parts. Clean the air filter immediately when the message is displayed.
• Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.
138 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.142
• 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.
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.
139
• 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.
When Power Consumption is set to Normal: Approx. 2900 hours
When Power Consumption is set to ECO: Approx. 3900 hours s Settings - Power Consumption
• If you continue to use the lamp after the replacement period has passed, the possibility that the lamp may blow increases. When the lamp replacement message is displayed, 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.
• Depending on the individual characteristics of the lamp and the way it has been used, the lamp may become darker or stop working before the message is displayed. You should always have a spare lamp unit ready in case it is needed.
Replacing Consumables
How to replace the lamp
The lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a wall or ceiling.
Warning
• When replacing the lamp because it has stopped working, there is a possibility that the lamp may be cracked. When replacing the lamp of a projector that has been installed on a wall or ceiling, assume that the lamp is cracked and stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Also, remove the lamp cover gently.
• Never disassemble or modify a 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 approximately one hour after the power has been turned off for the lamp to sufficiently cool down.

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.
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
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.
The light-emitting element of a display maintains the same luminosity and color for an extremely short time. Because of this, the image must be scanned many times per second to refresh the light-emitting element. The number of refresh operations per second is called the Refresh rate and is expressed in hertz (Hz).
An abbreviation for Standard Definition Television that refers to standard television systems which do not satisfy the conditions for HDTV
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 with the same
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.
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.
