Safety Instructions
• Installation of the product on the wall should be performed by qualified technicians using only
approved mounting equipment.
• Incomplete or incorrect installation could cause the product to fall and cause personal injury or property damage.
• If you apply adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use lubricants or oils on the wall
plate, the housing may crack and cause the product to fall, resulting in personal injury or property
damage.
• Handle the USB cable carefully to avoid fire or electric shock. Observe the following precautions when
handling:
Do not handle the cable with wet hands.
Do not use a cable that is damaged or modified.
Do not pull the cable with too much force when routing it or connecting it to a computer.
• Do not hang on the arm or hang a heavy object on it.
• If the product or wall plate falls, it could cause personal injury or property damage.
• When you mount the product on the wall with the wall plate, the wall requires enough strength to
hold the product and the wall plate. Confirm the weight of the product and the wall plate before
installation, and maintain the strength of the wall. If the wall is not strong enough, reinforce the wall
before installation.
• Do not install the product in a location where there is excessive humidity or dust, near cooking or heating appliances, or in a location exposed to smoke or steam. Fire or electric shock may result.
• Do not install the product in a location where it might be exposed to vibration or shock, which could
cause damage to the product or mounting surface. It could also cause the product to fall, resulting in
personal injury or property damage.
• Tighten all screws firmly after adjustment. Otherwise, the product or wall plate may fall and cause personal injury or property damage.
• Never loosen the bolts and nuts after installation.
• Confirm on a regular basis that the screws have not become loose. If you find any loose screws, tighten
them firmly. Otherwise, the product or wall plate may fall and cause personal injury or property damage.
• Follow the instructions in this guide when installing the wall plate. Otherwise, the wall plate may fall,
resulting in personal injury or property damage.
• Do not use excessive force when adjusting the product. Otherwise, the product may cause personal
injury.

Positioning the Interactive Module
The interactive module mounts on a wall and works with images projected on a pre-installed whiteboard or
directly on the wall. For interactive use, your images must be projected on a hard surface, rather than a
screen.
Note
If you normally project on a screen, you need to move or retract it so that you can project directly on a wall or preinstalled whiteboard; this may require refocusing your projector.
The projected image must be between 58 and 102 inches (147 and 259 cm), measured diagonally. You may
need to adjust your image size (using your projector’s zoom feature) to work with the interactive module. If
you project on a whiteboard, the image may not fill the entire board, depending on the size and aspect
ratio.

Note
Interactivity cannot be guaranteed if the screen is smaller than 58 inches (147 cm) measured diagonally
(minimum screen size for 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio).
Projector Position
The interactive module is designed to work with a ceiling-mounted projector. However, you can also use it
with a portable projector on a table or cart.
With any type of projector, you will need to recalibrate if you change the size, position, or resolution of the
image. This may happen more frequently when you use a portable projector.
If you use the interactive module with a portable projector, be aware of the following:
• You need to know the size, position, and location of the projected image before you can decide where
to mount the interactive module. Epson recommends that you determine the best position for your
portable projector, and mark the location on the table or floor so that you can always set it up in the
same place.
• Reflection of the light from the projector may cause the interactive module to malfunction.
• Epson recommends that you position the interactive module for the largest possible image size from
your portable projector(s).
• The person interacting with the image must avoid looking into the projector lens.
Warning
Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your eyes.
Projection Surface
• Your images must be projected on a hard surface, rather than a screen.
• If you are projecting on a wall-mounted board, make sure the distance
between the wall and the board is less than 6 inches (150 mm)
• Whether you are projecting on a wall-mounted board or a plain wall,
make sure the wall is flat and free from any obstructions, bulges, or
protrusions.

Projection Angle for Ceiling Mounted Projectors
Make sure your projector is positioned so that the interactive module will not interfere with the projected
image. You may need to adjust your projector’s position to avoid possible interference.
Refer to the table on page 9 or 10 and formulas on page 11 to determine whether you need to adjust
your ceiling-mounted projector’s position. For additional support tools and information, visit
www.epson.com/support (U.S.) or www.epson.ca/support (Canada).
AVOID
Projector
English
Note
No matter where your projector and interactive module are located, the person using the pen will cast a shadow on
the image. The shadow will not interfere with the interactive function, as long as the signal itself is not blocked.
Determining the Height of the Interactive Module
You need to determine the required distance between the top of the image area and the bottom of the wall
plate, based on the diagonal image size and aspect ratio. This distance indicates how high you need to
mount the interactive module on the wall.
1 Determine the aspect ratio of your whiteboard or projected image. For new projectors and computers,
this will most likely be WXGA (16:10). For older equipment, this will most likely be XGA (4:3).
If you are planning to project on a whiteboard, check the measurements on page 9 or 10 and select the
image size that most closely matches your whiteboard. If the size and aspect ratio of your board do not
not match any of the listed dimensions, the image may not fill the entire board.
2 Measure the size of the projection area, including the height (

Confirming the Projector Position
Once you have determined where to install the interactive module, you can determine whether the
projector’s position needs to be adjusted to avoid possible interference.
AVOID
Projector
You can mount the interactive module and then test the installation with your projector turned on. Or, you
can follow the steps below to calculate whether your projector’s position needs to be adjusted.
1 Measure the following projector distances:
English
• The distance from top of the projection area to the top edge of the projector’s lens (
• The distance from the wall to the top of the projector’s lens (
Arm length is 41.73 inches (1060 mm)
c)
a)
2 Make sure the distance from the top of the projector lens to the top of the image (a) is less than:
b –5.9 inches) × c/41.73 inches
(
b –150 mm) × c/1060 mm
or (
If the distance from the top of the projector lens to the top of the image (
a) is less than the calculated
value, the interactive module can be used without adjusting the projector position.
11
If not, change the projector’s position so that the distance from the top of the projector lens to the top
of the image is less than the calculated value. For example, you may need to lower the projector or tilt
it down as shown:
Note
Consult a qualified projector specialist if you need to adjust your projector’s position.
Sample Calculation
For example, if your projector is mounted 10 feet (3 m) away from the wall (distance c) for a 96-inch
WXGA image, the interactive module would be mounted 15.6 inches (396 mm) above the image area
(distance
top of the image (
b), according to the table on page 9. The distance from the top of the projector lens to the
a) might be 30 inches (762 mm). You would calculate the following:
15.6 –5.9 inches × 120/41.73 inches = 27.9 inches.
or 396 –150 mm × 3048/1060 mm = 709 mm.
a distance (30 inches or 762 mm) is more than 27.9 inches (709 mm). You would need to lower
The
the projector by 2.1 inches (53 mm).
