Part Names and Functions

Replacing the remote control batteries

If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new batteries. Have two AA size manganese or alkaline batteries ready. You cannot use other batteries except for the AA size manganese or alkaline.

Attention

Make sure you read the following manual before handling the batteries. s Safety Instructions

Remove the battery cover.

While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover up.

Caution

Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure the batteries are inserted the correct way.

Remote control operating range

Replace the battery cover.

Press the battery compartment cover until it clicks into place.

Replace the old batteries with new batteries.

Preparing the Projector

This chapter explains how to install the projector and connect projection sources.

Installing the Projector

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location.

• Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceil‐ ing projection)

• Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projec‐ tion)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear/Ceiling projection)

Warning

• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• If you use adhesives on the Ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector. When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants and so on.

Attention

• Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

• Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of

the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.

• An optional ceiling mount and attachment plate are required when

suspending the projector from a ceiling. s "Optional Accessories" p.110

• You can change the setting as follows by pressing down the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control for about five seconds.

FrontWFront/Ceiling Set Rear or Rear/Ceiling from the Configuration menu. s Extended - Projection p.74

Installation methods

Install the projector so that it is parallel to the screen.

Installing the Projector

If the projector is installed at an angle to the screen, keystone distortion occurs in the projected image. See the following for more information on correcting keystone distortion.

"Automatically Adjust to Fit the Screen Frame - Screen Fit - (EB-1775W

only)" p.31

By pressing the [Screen Fit] button on the remote control or the control panel, the projected image is adjusted to fit the screen, and keystone correction and focus adjustments are performed automatically.

The following conditions are necessary to correct the projected image using Screen Fit.

Screen size: less than or equal to 100"

Distance between projector and screen: approx. 1.0 to 2.5 m

• If you exceed the above mentioned range, the projected image

cannot be corrected properly. Correct the projected image manually.

• Screen Fit does not function if the projector is suspended from a ceiling. Correct the projected image manually.

Press the [Screen Fit] button on the remote control or the control panel during projection.

Adjusting Projected Images

• Screen Fit corrects the projected image when it detects two or more sides inside the projected area, and aligns with the detected frame. For example, when projecting onto a wide screen in a small room, you can make corrections by fitting the top and bottom sides of the screen into the projected area.

• Screen Fit may not work well in dark environments, such as a room with lights turned off. In this case, make the room brighter, and then try executing Screen Fit again.

• Because Screen Fit uses a sensor, it may not work properly depending on the condition of the projection surface (deflections, patterns, and so on) or the effects of outside light. In this case, make the adjustments manually.
