Adjusting Colour for Several Projectors (Multi-Screen Colour Adjustment)

When several projectors are lined up and projecting images, you can adjust the brightness and colour tone of each projector's image with multi-screen colour adjustment so that the colours of images from each projector match closely. In some cases the brightness and colour tone may not match completely even after adjustment.

Summary of Adjustment Procedure

Make adjustments according to the following procedure.

1. Setting screen ID

Before setting up the projectors, set one screen ID for each. When making adjustments for two or more projectors using the remote control, you can operate them individually by setting individual screen IDs for each projector.

2. Making image corrections

After the projectors are setup, you can adjust the image for each projector. Using Image Correction you can adjust from black to white in five stages called levels 1 to 5, and in each level 1 to 5 you can adjust the following two points.

• Adjusting brightness Adjust each image by levels 1 to 5 so that they are all equal.

• Adjusting colour Adjust each image by levels 1 to 5 so that the colours match using "Color Correct. (G/R)" and "Color Correct. (B/Y)".

Setting Screen ID

For instance, after setting one projector as screen ID3, when you press button [3] while holding down the [Num] button, even if there is more than one projector setup, you can operate just the one set as screen ID3.

Procedure

Press the [Menu] button and select "Extended" "Multi-screen" - "Screen ID" from the configuration menu. s p.31

Using the remote control Using the control panel

Check the buttons you can use and the operations they perform in the guide under the menu.

Page 24

Adjusting Colour for Several Projectors (Multi-Screen Colour Adjustment)

Choose the ID you want to set and press the [Enter] button.

Press the [Menu] button to close the configuration menu.

• Point the remote control at the remote receiver on the projector you want to operate, press the numeric button corresponding to the screen ID set while holding down the [Num] button, and then you can operate only the projector specified with the ID number.

• You can operate all projectors regardless of the screen ID settings by pointing the remote control at the remote receiver on the projector, and pressing the [0] button while holding down the [Num] button.

• The screen IDs set here are only effective during "Image Correction" for "Multi-screen".

• If a projector that is not the object of operation reacts to the remote control, point the remote control at the remote receiver on that projector and press the number set as that projector's screen ID while holding down the [Num] button.

Image Correction Method

After setting up the projectors, adjust the brightness and tone for each image.

Procedure

Press the [Menu] button and select "Extended" "Multi-screen" - "Image Correction" from the configuration menu. s p.31

Select the level to be adjusted in "Adjustment Level".

• Each time a level is selected, the pattern of the level selected is displayed.

• You can start adjusting from any level, usually you can make it darker or lighter by adjusting 1 to 5 or 5 to 1.

Adjust the brightness with "Brightness Correct.".

• When you select level 5, it adjusts to the darkest image from several projectors.

• When you select level 1, it adjusts to the brightest image from several projectors.

• When you select level 2 to 4, it adjusts to the mid-range brightness image from several projectors.

• Each time the [Enter] button is pressed the image displayed changes between the pattern display and the actual image, and you can check the adjustment results and make corrections in the actual image.

Security Functions

The projector has the following security functions.

• Password Protect You can limit who can use the projector.

• Operation Lock You can prevent people changing the settings on the projector without permission.

Managing Users (Password Protect)

When Password Protect is activated, people who do not know the password cannot use the projector to project images even if the projector power is on. Furthermore, the user's logo that is displayed when you turn on the projector cannot be changed. This acts as an anti-theft device as the projector cannot be used even if it is stolen. At the time of purchase, Password Protect is not activated.

f Type of Password Protect

The following four kinds of password protect settings can be made according to how the projector is being used.

3. "User's Logo Protect"

When "User's Logo Protect" is set to "On" the user's logo cannot be changed and the following setting changes for user's logo are prohibited.

• Capturing a user's logo

• Settings for "Display Background", "Startup Screen", and "A/V Mute" from "Display" on the configuration menu.

4. "Network Protect" (EMP-1715/1705 only)

When "Network Protect" is set to "On" setting changes for "Network" in the configuration menu are prohibited.

1. "Power On Protect"

When "Power On Protect" is "On", the password must be entered whenever the projector is turned on after it has been disconnected from the power supply it was connected to the last time the password was entered. If the correct password is not entered, projection does not start.

2. "Password Timer"

When "Password Timer" is set to "On" and a time limit is set, the projector requests the password after the time limit has passed.

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods.

Attention

• 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 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 use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

• Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from in front of the screen. (Front/Ceiling projection)

• Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear/Ceiling projection)

• An optional ceiling mount is required when suspending

the projector from a ceiling.

• You can change the setting as follows by pressing down the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control for about five seconds.

"Front" "Rear"

• When set to "Front/Ceiling" or "Rear/Ceiling", you cannot disconnect the power cable immediately because cool down is performed after the power is turned off.

"Front/Ceiling"

"Rear/Ceiling" sp.35

p.64

Page 54

Cleaning

You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of projected images starts to deteriorate.

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 discoloured.

Cleaning the Lens

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.

Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning classes to gently wipe the lens.

Attention

Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it can easily become damaged.

Cleaning the Air Filter and Air Intake Vent

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." s "How to replace the air filter" p.59

• If a message is frequently displayed, even after cleaning, it is time to replace the air filter. Replace it with a new air

filter.

• 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.

p.59

Page 55

Replacing Consumables

This section explains how to replace the remote control batteries, the lamp, and the air filter.

Replacing the Remote Control Batteries

If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new batteries. Have two spare AAA-size alkali batteries ready to use when required.

Attention

Make sure you read the Safety Instructions/World-Wide Warranty Terms before handling the batteries.

Procedure

Remove the battery cover.

While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover up.

Safety Instructions

Replace the old batteries with new batteries.

Attention

Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure the batteries are inserted the correct way.

Replace the battery cover.

Press the battery compartment cover until it clicks into place.

Replacing the Lamp

f Lamp replacement period

It is time to replace the lamp when:

• The message "Replace the lamp." is displayed when you start projecting.

A message is displayed.

• The lamp indicator flashes orange.

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 used continually at high brightness: About 1900 hours

·When used continually at low brightness: About 2900 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.

• Depending on the characteristics of the lamp and the way it has been used, the lamp may become darker or stop working before the lamp warning message appears. You should always have a spare lamp ready incase it is needed.

f How to replace the lamp

"Brightness Control" p.34

Flashing orange

• The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.

Attention

• 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 broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened. If pieces of glass get into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.

• 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.

Page 57

Replacing Consumables

Procedure

After you turn off the projector's power and the confirmation buzzer beeps twice, disconnect the power cable.

Glossary

This section explains easily terms that are used with the projector and difficult terms that are not explained in the text of this guide. For details, refer to other commercially available publications.

EMP Link21L A utility software program that allows the projector to be connected to a computer so that the computer can be used to control the

projector. For details on acquiring the software and for instructions on using the software and compatible projector models, go to http:// www.epson.com and select the support section of your local Epson Web site.

HDTV An abbreviation for High-Definition Television that refers to high-definition systems which satisfy the following conditions.

• Vertical resolution of 750p or 1125i or greater (p = progressive

• Screen aspect ratio

• Dolby Digital

SDTV An abbreviation for Standard Definition Television that refers to standard television systems which do not satisfy the conditions for

HDTV

SNMP 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.

S-video A video signal which has the luminance component and colour component separated to provide better image quality.

Refers to images that consist of two independent signals: Y (luminance signal) and C (colour signal).

sRGB An international standard for colour intervals that was formulated so that colours 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.

SVGA A type of video signal with a resolution of 800 (horizontal) ^ 600 (vertical) dots that is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. SXGA A type of video signal with a resolution of 1280 (horizontal) ^ 1024 (vertical) dots that is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. VGA A type of video signal with a resolution of 640 (horizontal) ^ 480 (vertical) dots that is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. XGA A type of video signal with a resolution of 1024 (horizontal) ^ 768 (vertical) dots that is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. Aspect ratio The ratio between an image's length and its height. HDTV images have an aspect ratio of 16:9 and appear elongated. The aspect ratio for

standard images is 4:3.

Interlace A method of image scanning whereby the image data is divided into fine horizontal lines that are displayed in sequence starting from left

to right and then from top to bottom. The even-numbered lines and odd-numbered lines are displayed alternately.

Contrast 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".

Component video A video signal which has the luminance component and colour component separated to provide better image quality.

Refers to images that consist of three independent signals: Y (luminance signal), Pb and Pr (colour difference signals).

Composite video Video signals that have the video brightness signals and colour signals mixed together. The type of signals commonly used by household

video equipment (NTSC, NTSC4.43, PAL, M-PAL, N-PAL, PAL60, and SECAM formats).

Squeeze mode In this mode, wide-screen images in 16:9 mode are compressed in the horizontal direction so that they are stored on the recording

medium as 4:3 images. When these images are played back by the projector in squeeze mode, they are restored to their original 16:9 format.

Glossary

Synchronization 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.

Security slot The security slot is compatible with the Microsaver Security System manufactured by Kensington. You can find details about the

Microsaver Security System on the Kensington homepage http://www.kensington.com/

Tracking 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.

Dolby Digital A sound format developed by Dolby Laboratories. Normal stereo is a 2-channel format that uses two speakers. Dolby Digital is a 6-

channel (5.1-channel) system which adds to this a centre speaker, two rear speakers, and a sub-woofer.

Progressive A method of image scanning whereby the image data from a single image is scanned sequentially from top to bottom to create a single

image.

Refresh rate The light-emitting element of a display maintains the same luminosity and colour 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).
