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.

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.

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.

Warning
Do not look into the projector's lens during projection. Doing so could
damage your eyes. Take particular care when there are children present.
During projection, do not block the light from the projector with the lens
cover or a book and so on. If the light from the projector is blocked, the area
on which the light shines becomes hot which could cause the lens cover to
melt, burn, or start a fire. Also, the lens may get hot due to the reflected light
which could cause the projector to malfunction. To stop projection, use the
A/V Mute function, or turn off the projector.
A mercury lamp with high internal pressure is used as the projector's light
source. If the lamp is subjected to vibrations, shocks, or if it is used for an
overly extended length of time, the lamp may break or it may not turn on. If
the lamp explodes, gases may escape and small fragments of glass may be
scattered which could cause an injury. Be sure to observe the instructions
below.
- Do not disassemble or damage the lamp or subject it to any impacts.
- Do not bring your face close to the projector while it is in use.
- Particular care should be taken when the projector is installed to a ceiling,
as small pieces of glass may fall down when the lamp cover is removed.
(When cleaning the projector or replacing the lamp yourself, be very careful
not to allow such pieces of glass to get into the eyes or mouth.)
If the lamp breaks, ventilate the area immediately, and contact a doctor if any
fragments of broken glass are inhaled or get into the eyes or mouth.

The interactive features turn any wall into an interactive whiteboard, either
with or without a computer. Three interactive modes are available and it's
easy to shift between each mode:
In annotation mode, you can use interactive pens to add notes to
content projected from a computer, tablet, document camera, or other
source. This helps you emphasize projected information or include
additional notes for more effective lessons or presentations.
In whiteboard mode, you can use interactive pens to write on the
projected "whiteboard." You do not need to use a computer or install
any additional software to use the built-in whiteboard drawing feature.

Using the Interactive Features over a Network
80
You can use your projector in computer interactive mode over a network.
If you want to annotate when using computer interactive mode over a
network, you need to use Easy Interactive Tools (or another annotation
program). Easy Interactive Tools allows you to use various drawing tools,
treat the drawing area as a page, and save your drawings as a file for a later
use. You can install Easy Interactive Tools from the EPSON Projector
Software for Easy Interactive Function CD. You can also download the
software from the Epson website.
Use one of the following software applications to setup your projector
on a computer network and use computer interactive mode over the

Precautions When Connecting to a Projector on a
Different Subnet
Follow these precautions when you connect to a projector on a different
subnet using EasyMP Network Projection and use interactive features:
Search for the projector on the network by specifying the projector's IP
address. You cannot search for it by specifying the projector name.
Make sure that you get an echo reply back from the network projector
when sending an echo request by the ping command. When the
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) option is disabled on the
router, you can connect to the projector at remote locations even if you
cannot get the echo reply back.
Using the Interactive Features over a Network
Make sure the following ports are opened.

Make sure that the MAC address filtering and application filtering
options are disabled on the router.
Make sure that Network Address Translation (NAT) technology is not
used in your network environment. With Internet VPN and IP-VPN,
you can connect to the network projector remotely when you meet the
above requirements.
When bandwidth management is applied for communications between
locations, and EasyMP Network Projection goes over the controlled
bandwidth, you may not be able to connect to the projector at remote
locations.
