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

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.

Connecting to a Computer for USB Video and Audio

If your computer meets the system requirements, you can send video and audio output to the projector
through the computer's USB port (preferably USB 2.0). Connect the projector to your computer using a
USB cable.

Note: You may experience slow interactive pen function when connecting the projector to your computer
using a USB cable. For the best interactive performance, VGA or HDMI cable connections are
recommended.

1. Turn on your computer.

2. Connect the cable to your projector's USB TypeB port.

3. Connect the other end to any available USB port on your computer.

4. Do one of the following:

• Windows 7/Windows Vista: Select Run EMP_UDSE.exe in the dialog box that appears to install
the EPSON USB Display software.

• Windows XP: Wait as messages appear on your computer screen and the projector installs the
EPSON USB Display software on your computer.

• Windows 2000: Select Computer, EPSON_PJ_UD, and EMP_UDSE.EXE toinstall the EPSON
USB Display software.

29

• Mac OS X: The USB Display setup folder appears on your screen. Select USB Display Installer
and follow the on-screen instructions to install the EPSON USB Display software.

Follow any on-screen instructions. You need to install this software only the first time you connect
the projector to the computer.

The projector displays the image from your computer's desktop and outputs sound, if your presentation
contains audio.
