Warning

Do not use the Touch Unit near medical equipment such as pace makers. Furthermore, when using the Touch Unit, make sure there is no medical equipment such as pace makers, in the surrounding area. Electromagnetic interference may cause medical equipment to malfunction.

Caution

•Do not use the Touch Unit near magnetic storage media such as magnetic cards, or precision electronic devices such as computers, digital watches, or cell phones. Data could be corrupted or a malfunction could occur.

•When installing the Touch Unit on a magnetic surface, be careful not to trap your fingers or any other part of your body between the magnet and the installation surface.

23

Attention

•Do not connect the Touch Unit to any devices except for EB-1460Ui/EB-1450Ui. The device could malfunction, or laser light could leak beyond the limit.

•Make sure you use the supplied Touch Unit connection cable. Operations are not possible with a commercially available cable.

•When disposing of the Touch Unit, do not disassemble it. Dispose according to your local or national laws and regulations.

aSee the Installation Guide for the Touch Unit installation methods and angle adjustment methods.

Setting Up the Projector

Follow the instructions in these sections to set up your projector. g Related Links

Projector Placement	25

You can install the projector on a wall, or place it on a table to project images.

You need the optional mounts when suspending the projector from a ceiling, installing it on a wall, or placing it vertically on a table.

Note the following points when selecting 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.

•Place the projector parallel to the screen.

aIf you cannot install the projector parallel to the screen, correct keystone distortion using the projector controls.

Warning

•A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a wall or ceiling. If you do not install the projector correctly, it could fall and cause damage or injury.

•Do not use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or use lubricants, oils, or similar substances on the projector; the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the mount and could damage the projector.

•Do not cover the projector's air intake or air exhaust vents. If the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.

•Do not install the projector on an unstable surface or in a location beyond the weight specifications of the projector. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.

•When installing the projector in a high position, take measures to prevent falling by using wires to ensure safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and to prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

Attention

•If you are using the projector at altitudes above 1500 m, set the High Altitude Mode setting to On in the projector's Extended menu to ensure the projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.

s Extended > Operation > High Altitude Mode

•Try not to setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Settings when Using the Interactive Features

When using the interactive features, project from in front of the screen. Set Projection to Front/Upside Down or Front.

Attention

The interactive features are operated using infrared communication. Note the following points when installing the projector.

•Do not install the projector tilted at an angle of 3˚ or more. The interactive features may not operate correctly.

•Make sure there is no strong light or sunlight shining on the interactive pen receiver, the projection screen, the projector itself, or the rear of the projector.

•Do not install the projector where it could be subjected to direct sunlight through a window. This could cause the interactive features to malfunction.

•Install the projector so that the interactive pen receiver is not too close to fluorescent lights. If the surrounding area is too bright, the interactive features may not operate correctly.

•If there is any dust stuck to the interactive pen receiver, it could interfere with infrared communication and the interactive features may not operate correctly. Clean the receiver if it is dirty.

•Do not put paint or any stickers on the cover of the interactive pen receiver.

•When using the interactive features, do not use an infrared remote control or microphone in the same room. The interactive pen could malfunction.

•Do not use devices that generate powerful noise, such as rotary devices or transformers, near the projector, as the interactive features may not operate correctly.

Projector Placement	27

a• We recommend using a smooth, board type screen without any unevenness. If the projection screen is uneven, there may be distortions in the projected image.

•Distortions may occur in the projected image depending on the material of the screen and the installation method.

•When using the interactive features, install the projector so that the projected screen is a rectangle without any distortion.

•When using the interactive features in the same room as multiple projectors, interactive pen operations may become unstable. In this case, connect the optional remote control cable set to the projectors, and change Sync of Projectors to Wired from the projector's

Extended menu.

Settings when Using the Touch Unit

When using the Touch Unit, install the projector using one of the following methods (EB-1460Ui/EB-1450Ui). The Touch Unit cannot be used if another installation method is used.

•Mount the projector on a wall or suspend it from a ceiling and project images from in front of the screen (the setting plate or ceiling mount is required).

•Install vertically on a desk and project from the front of the desk (the interactive table mount is required).

Projector Connections	28

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.

Attention

Check the shape and orientation of the connectors on any cable you plan to connect. Do not force a connector into a port if it does not fit. The device or your projector could be damaged or could malfunction.

aSee the Quick Start Guide for a list of cables supplied with your projector. Purchase optional or commercially available cables when necessary.

•Connect a 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 smartphones with compatible video output ports.

•If your presentation or video includes sound, you can connect audio input cables.

•For slide shows or presentations without a computer, you can connect USB devices (such as a flash drive or camera) or the optional Epson document camera.
