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
a
suspending the projector from a ceiling.

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

• WEP
Data is encrypted with a code key (WEP key). This mechanism prevents
communication unless the encrypted keys for the access point and the
projector match.
Key ID
Selects the WEP encryption ID key.
List of Functions
• WPA
This is an encryption standard that improves security which is a weak
point of WEP. Although there are multiple kinds of WPA encryption
methods, this projector uses TKIP and AES.
WPA also includes user authentication functions. WPA authentication
provides two methods: using an authentication server, or authenticating
between a computer and an access point without using a server. This
projector supports the latter method, without a server.
