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 compatible component 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.

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 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 (PowerLite Home Cinema 3500/3510/3600e).

• To receive and view a 3D signal, you need a compatible HDMI cable and active shutter 3D glasses (3D glasses not included with PowerLite Home Cinema 3000). You can purchase them from Epson or an authorized Epson reseller. If your video source is a 3D Blu-ray disc, you also need a Blu-ray player that supports 3D playback. See your local computer or electronics dealer for purchase information.

• To project with audio from certain ports, you may need a commercially available audio cable compatible with your device (PowerLite Home Cinema 3500/3510/3600e). 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.

Projector Placement Projector Connections Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

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.

Projector Setup and Installation Options Projection Distance

Projector Setup and Installation Options

You can set up or install your projector in the following ways: Front

Rear

Front Ceiling

Rear Ceiling

Wherever you set up the projector, make sure to position it squarely in front of the center of the screen, not at an angle, if possible. If the projector cannot be centered in front of the screen, use lens shift to reposition the image instead of using keystone correction for better image quality.

If you project from the ceiling or from the rear, be sure to select the correct Projection option in the projector's menu system.

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.)

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: 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, 720p, or higher. 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 control 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 or WirelessHD transmitter using either an MHL cable or an HDMI cable with a device-compatible MHL adapter (PowerLite Home Cinema 3500/3510/3600e). If you have a device with a built-in MHL connector, plug it directly into the projector's HDMI 1/MHL port or the WirelessHD transmitter's HDMI 5 / MHL (IN) port. (WirelessHD connection available only for the PowerLite Home Cinema 3600e.)

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 projector's HDMI 1/MHL port or the WirelessHD transmitter's

HDMI 5 / MHL (IN) port.

Connecting to a Component Video Source

If your video source has component video ports, you can connect it to the projector using an optional component 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 other end to the projector's color-coded Component video input ports.

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, 720p, or higher. See your game console documentation for instructions.

You can also select the Fast Image Processing setting 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.

Parent topic: Connecting to Video Sources Related tasks

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 (PowerLite Home Cinema 3500/3510/3600e). 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. You can also connect externally powered speakers or headphones to the Audio Out port using a 3.5 mm stereo mini jack cable.

Adjusting the Image Position Using Lens Shift

If you cannot install the projector directly in front of the screen, you can adjust the position of the projected image using the lens shift feature.

Note: Wait 30 minutes after turning on the projector before setting the focus, zoom, and lens shift for maximum accuracy.

4 H × 24%

Note: You cannot move the image to both the horizontal and vertical maximum values.

Follow these guidelines when using lens shift to adjust your images:

• When adjusting the image height, position the image lower than where you want it to be and then

move it up using the vertical lens shift dial. This will help prevent the image from moving down after adjustment.

• Keeping the vertical and horizontal lens shift dials in their center positions produces the clearest

picture.
