Additional Components

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

•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. You can purchase one from Epson or an authorized Epson reseller.

•To receive an HDMI signal via MHL, you need an MHL-compatible device, an MHL cable or an HDMI cable and an MHL adapter compatible with your device. Devices with an integrated MHL connector may not require a cable.

•To receive and view a 3D signal, you need a compatible HDMI cable and active shutter 3D glasses. You can purchase them from Epson or an authorized Epson reseller. If your video source is a 3D Bluray disc, you also need a Blu-ray player that supports 3D playback. See your local computer or electronics dealer for purchase information.

Note: To connect a Mac that includes only a Mini DisplayPort, Thunderbolt port, 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.

•To add additional sound, you need speakers, an audio video receiver or a video source with speaker connections, and the cables necessary to connect to the speakers and the projector. See your local computer or electronics dealer for purchase information.

Setting Up the Projector

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

Opening the Lens Cover

Projector Placement

You can place the projector on almost any flat surface to project an image.

You can also install the projector in a ceiling mount if you want to use it in a fixed location.

Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:

•Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.

•Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or next to anything that could block the vents.

•Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.

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.

Use the tables here 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 epson.com/support (U.S.) or epson.ca/support (Canada).

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.

•For video projection, connect devices such as DVD players, gaming consoles, streaming devices, digital cameras, smartphones, and tablets with compatible video output ports.

Note: To connect a smartphone or tablet, you may need to obtain an adapter that allows you to connect to the projector. This allows you to mirror your smartphone or tablet screens, watch movies, and more. Contact your device manufacturer for compatible adapter options.

•For sound, you can connect audio input cables, if necessary.

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

•For slide shows without a video source or computer, you can connect USB devices such as a flash drive or 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.

Parent topic: Projector Connections

Connecting to an HDMI Video Source

If your video source has an HDMI port, you can connect it to the projector using an optional HDMI cable. The HDMI connection provides the best image quality.

1.Connect the HDMI cable to your video source's HDMI output port.

2.Connect the other end to one of the projector's HDMI ports.

Note: The projector converts the digital audio signal sent from your video source into a mono analog signal for the internal speaker or a stereo analog signal if you are connecting to external speakers.

Note: If you connected a game console, it may take a few seconds for your image to appear when you switch to the game console's input source. To reduce the potential lag in response time to game

commands, set your game console's output format to a progressive signal of 480p or 720p. See your game console documentation for instructions.

You can also select the Fast setting using the Fast/Fine button on the remote control to reduce lag time.

Note: When an audio/video source that meets the HDMI CEC standard is connected to the projector's HDMI port, you can use the projector's remote control to control certain features of the linked device by pressing the HDMI Link button on the remote and setting HDMI Link to On.

Connecting to an MHL-Compatible Device

If you have an MHL-compatible smartphone or tablet, you can connect it to the projector using either an MHL cable or an HDMI cable with a device-compatible MHL adapter. If you have a device with a built-in MHL connector, you may plug it directly into the HDMI 1 / MHL port.

Note: Some connected devices may not charge when using an MHL adapter.

1.Connect the MHL cable or adapter to your device's micro-USB port.

2.If you are using an MHL adapter, connect it to an MHL-compatible HDMI cable.

3.Connect the other end of the cable to the projector's HDMI 1 / MHL port.

Connecting to a Component-to-VGA Video Source

If your video source has component video ports, you can connect it to the projector using an optional component-to-VGA video cable. Depending on your component ports, you may need to use an adapter cable along with a component video cable.

1.Connect the component connectors to your video source's color-coded component video output ports, usually labeled Y, Pb, Pr or Y, Cb, Cr. If you are using an adapter, connect these connectors to your component video cable.

2.Connect the VGA connector to a PC port on the projector.

3. Tighten the screws on the VGA connector.

If your image colors appear incorrect, you may need to change the PC Signal setting in the projector's Extended menu to Component.

Note: If you connected a game console, it may take a few seconds for your image to appear when you switch to the game console's input source. To reduce the potential lag in response time to game commands, set your game console's output format to a progressive signal of 480p or 720p. See your game console documentation for instructions.

You can also select the Fast setting using the Fast/Fine button on the remote control to reduce lag time.

Connecting to a Composite Video Source

If your video source has a composite video port, you can connect it to the projector using an optional RCA-style video or A/V cable.

1.Connect the cable with the yellow connector to your video source's yellow video output port.

2.Connect the other end to the projector's Video port.

Connecting to a Video Source for Sound

You can play sound through the projector's speaker system if your video source has audio output ports. Connect the projector to the video source using an RCA audio cable.

Note: If you connected your video source to the projector using an HDMI or MHL cable, the audio signal is transferred with the video signal; you do not need an additional cable for sound.

1. Connect the audio cable to your video source's audio-out ports.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the projector's Audio port or ports.

Note: To add additional sound, connect your video source and speakers to an audio video receiver, then connect the receiver to the projector using one of the receiver's compatible video outputs (an HDMI connection provides the best image quality, if available). You can also connect speakers to any video source that has its own speaker connections. External powered speakers or headphones can also be connected to the Audio Out port using a 3.5 mm stereo mini jack cable.
