Convenient Equipment Designed for Ease of Use
Easy to handle
• Easy wall mounting
The projector is supplied with a dedicated slide plate that makes
troublesome wall mounting easy.
The slide plate is integrated into the projector main unit, so mounting is
easy and installation time has been reduced compared to previous models.
s
Installation Guide
You can also perform maintenance such as replacing the air filter and
lamp simply while projector is mounted to a wall.
• No special screen required
Installation in a wide range of places is possible because you can project
images onto a projection surface such as a wall if there is no projector
screen.
• Short distance projection
At 47 cm, the recommended shortest projection distance allows you to
place the projector close to the screen.
If you mount the projector to a wall and project images from diagonally
above, you can give your presentation without the shadow of anybody
who stands up near the projection surface appearing in the images.
Furthermore, when your back is facing the screen, the projector light does
not dazzle you because it does not interfere with your field of view.
s
p.118
• Display of projection lines on the projection surface
The pattern function for projecting ruled lines or a grid enables effective
use of the projection surface in lessons and presentations.
• Speaker
The incorporation of a high-output speaker allows your voice to reach the
edges of the room even in spacious classrooms.
• Projection screen for WXGA (EB-455Wi/450W/440W only)
With a computer that has a 16:10 WXGA wide LCD display, the image
can be projected in the same aspect. This allows you to effectively use the
width of whiteboards and other landscape-oriented projection surfaces.
• Control the projector from a computer
You can use the Web Control function and Web Remote function to
perform the same operations on a computer as with the projector's
s
control panel or remote control.
p.64
Enhanced security functions
• Password Protect to restrict and manage users
By setting a Password you can restrict who can use the projector.
s
p.50
• Control Panel Lock restricts button operation on the Control panel
You can use this to prevent people changing projector settings without
permission at events, in schools, and so on.
s
p.52
• Pointing down projection is useful for group tutorials (EB-465i/
455Wi only)
By setting up the projector vertically, you can project down onto the
surface of a table.
• Direct power on/off
In places where power is managed centrally, such as in a conference
room, you can set the projector to turn on or off when the main power
source to which the projector is connected is switched on or off.
s
p.20
• Equipped with anti-theft security devices
The projector is equipped with the following types of anti-theft security
functions.
• Security slot

Network Projection (software) to perform efficient and varied presentations
s
and meetings.
• Connect a Computer to the projector via a network
You can project by connecting to an already constructed network system.
You can hold efficient meetings by projecting from multiple computers
connected to a network system without having to change any cables.
• Connecting wirelessly to a computer
When you install the optional wireless LAN unit in the projector, you can
connect wirelessly to a computer.
• Connection method for various networks
The following methods are available for connecting the projector to a
network. Select whichever method suites your environment.

WEP: An encryption key (WEP key) is used to encrypt data.
This mechanism prevents communication unless the encryption keys for the access point and the projector match.
WPA/WPA2: This is an encryption standard that improves security, which is considered 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 a using server. This projector supports the latter method, without a server.
