Setting Up the Projector
Follow the instructions in these sections to set up your projector for use.
Projector Placement
Projector Connections
Attaching and Removing the Cable Cover
Attaching and Removing the HDMI Cable Clip
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
You can set up or install your projector in the following ways:
Front
26
Rear
Front ceiling
Rear ceiling
27
Note: Be sure to leave at least 20 inches (50 cm) of space in front of the air exhaust and intake vents
and, when setting up multiple projectors, 20 inches (50 cm) of space between the projectors.
If you mount the projector to the ceiling, it can be installed at the following angles:
• Vertically: Any angle up to ±30°.
28
• Horizontally: Can be tilted within the range of the rear feet.
If you project from the ceiling, set the Inv Direction Button setting (Extended > Operation) to On so
that the operations on the screen match the control panel button commands.

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).
