Additional Components

Depending on how you plan to use the projector, you may need to obtain the following additional components:

To receive an S-Video signal, you need an S-Video cable compatible with your device. See your local computer or electronics dealer for purchase information.

To receive a component video signal, you need a D-sub, 15-pin, component-to-VGA video cable. You can purchase one from Epson or an authorized EPSON reseller.

To receive an HDMI signal, you need a compatible HDMI cable. See your local computer or electronics dealer for purchase information.

15

Note: To connect a Mac that includes only a Mini DisplayPort or Mini-DVI port for video output, you need to obtain an adapter that allows you to connect to the projector's HDMI port. Contact Apple for compatible adapter options. Older Mac computers (2009 and earlier) may not support audio through the HDMI port.

To project with audio from certain ports, you may need a commercially available audio cable compatible with your device. See your local computer or electronics dealer for purchase information.

Note: To connect a Mac that includes only a Mini DisplayPort or Mini-DVI port for video output, you need to obtain an adapter that allows you to connect to the projector's VGA video port. Contact Apple for compatible adapter options.

Setting Up the Projector

Follow the instructions in these sections to set up your projector for use.

Projection Distance

Projector Connections

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

Installing Batteries in the Interactive Pens

Projection Distance

The distance at which you place the projector from the screen determines the approximate size of the image. The image size increases the farther the projector is from the screen, but can vary depending on the zoom factor, aspect ratio, and other settings.

Refer to the tables in the Installation Guide to determine approximately how far to place the projector from the screen based on the size of the projected image. (Conversion figures may have been rounded up or down.) You can also use the projector Throw Distance Calculator at www.epson.com/support (U.S.) or www.epson.ca/support (Canada).

Parent topic: Setting Up the Projector

Projector Connections

You can connect the projector to a variety of computer, video, and audio sources to display presentations, movies, or other images, with or without sound.

Connect any type of computer that has a USB port, standard video output (monitor) port, or HDMI port.

For video projection, connect devices such as DVD players, gaming consoles, digital cameras, and camera phones with compatible video output ports.

If your presentation or video includes sound, you can connect audio input cables, if necessary.

For slide shows without a computer, you can connect USB devices (such as a flash drive or camera) or an optional EPSON document camera.

Caution: If you will use the projector at altitudes above 4921 feet (1500 m), turn on High Altitude Mode to ensure the projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.
