Preparing the Projector

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

Installing the Projector

23

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location.
Turn the projector off when installing the projector or changing the installation method. Turn the power back on after completing installation.
Project images from in front of
the screen. (Front projection)
Suspend the projector from a
wall or ceiling and project im‐ ages from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceiling 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 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.
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.
Do not use the projector in a location subject to combustible or explosive gas.
The projector may catch fire due to the high internal temperature of the lamp.
Attention
Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.
Installing the Projector
24
We recommend using a smooth, board type screen without any
a
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 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.172
The default Projection setting is Front. You can change from Front
to Rear from the Configuration menu. s Extended - Projection p.120
You can change the Projection mode as follows by pressing down
the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control for about five seconds.
FrontWFront/Ceiling RearWRear/Ceiling
Installation Methods
Install the projector as follows.
Install the projector so that it is parallel to the screen.
If the projector is installed at an angle to the screen, keystone distortion occurs in the projected image.
Place the projector on a level surface.
If the projector is tilted the projected image is also tilted.
See the following if you cannot install the projector parallel to the
a
screen. s "Correcting Keystone Distortion" p.48
See the following if you cannot install the projector on a level
surface.
s "Adjusting the Horizontal Tilt" p.52 s "Correcting Keystone Distortion" p.48
When Using the Interactive Features (EB-536Wi only)
Project from in front of the screen when using the interactive features. Set the Projection mode to Front or Front/Ceiling.
Install the projector so that the angle of tilt is ±7° vertically and ±5° horizontally against the projection side.
Installing the Projector
Attention
The interactive features operates by infrared communication. Note the following points when installing the projector.
Make sure there is no strong light or sunlight shining on the Easy Interactive
Function receiver, the projection screen, the projector itself, or the rear of the projector.
Do not install the projector in direct sunlight through a window. This could
cause the interactive features to malfunction.
If there is any dust stuck to the Easy Interactive Function receiver, it could
interfere with infrared communication and you may not be able to use the function normally. Clean the receiver if it is dirty.
Do not put paint or any stickers on the cover of the Easy Interactive
Function receiver.
Install the projector so that the Easy Interactive Function receiver is not too
close to fluorescent lights. If the surrounding area is too bright, the interactive features may not operate correctly.
When using the interactive features, do not use an infrared remote control or
microphone in the same room. The Easy Interactive Pen could malfunction.
Do not use devices that generate powerful noise, such as rotary devices or
transformers, near the projector. You may not be able to operate the interactive features.
a
25
When using the interactive features, install so that the projected
screen is a rectangle without any distortion.
When using the interactive features in the same room as multiple
projectors, Easy Interactive Pen operations may become unstable. In this situation, connect the optional Remote control cable set (ELPKC28) to the projectors, and change Sync of Projectors to Wired from the Configuration menu.
