Suspend the projector from a wall or ceiling and project im­ages from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceiling projection)
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 wall or ceiling. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.
If you use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or 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 mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the mount and could damage the projector. When installing or adjusting the mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use lubricant or oil 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.
a
When installing the projector on a wall or on the ceiling, make sure you use the correct tools for the installation method. s "Optional Accessories" p.138
You can change the setting as follows by pressing down the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control for about five seconds.

Hiding the Image and Sound Temporarily (A/V Mute)
You can use this when you want to focus the audience's attention on what you are saying, or if you do not want to show details such as when you are changing between files during presentations from a computer.
Each time you press the [A/V Mute] button, A/V Mute turns on or off.
Remote control
a
If you use this function when projecting moving images, the images and sound continue to be played back by the source, and you cannot return to the point where A/V Mute was activated.
Microphone audio is still output even when A/V Mute is turned on.
You can select the screen displayed when the [A/V Mute] button is pressed from the Configuration menu.
s Extended - Display - A/V Mute p.80
The lamp is still lit during A/V Mute, so the lamp hours continue to accumulate.
Freezing the Image (Freeze)
When Freeze is activated on moving images, the frozen image continues to project on the screen, so you can project a moving image one frame at a time like a still photo. Also, you can perform operations such as changing between files during presentations from a computer without projecting any images if the Freeze function is activated beforehand.
Each time you press the [Freeze] button, Freeze turns on or off.

Managing Users (Password Protect)
When Password Protect is activated, people who do not know the password cannot use the projector to project images even if the projector power is on. Furthermore, the user's logo that is displayed when you turn on the projector cannot be changed. This acts as an anti-theft device as the projector cannot be used even if it is stolen. At the time of purchase, Password Protect is not activated.
Kinds of Password Protect
The following three kinds of Password Protect settings can be made according to how the projector is being used.
Power On Protect
When Power On Protect is On, you need to enter a preset password after the projector is plugged in and turned on (this also applies to Direct Power On). If the correct password is not entered, projection does not start.
User's Logo Protect
Even if someone tries to change the User's Logo set by the owner of the projector, it cannot be changed. When User's Logo Protect is set to On, the following setting changes for the User's Logo are prohibited.

WEP
Data is encrypted with a code key (WEP key). This mechanism prevents communication unless the encryption keys for the access point and the projector match.
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.
