Installation Methods

The projector supports the following six different installation methods. Install the projector according to the installation location.
Turn the projector off when installing the projector or changing the installation method. Turn the power back on after completing installation.
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 because of the high temperature of the lamp inside the projector.
We recommend using a smooth, board type screen without any

Using the Interactive Features over a Network

92
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 network:
EasyMP Network Projection version 2.85 or later (for Windows) or 2.83 or later (for OS X)
See the EasyMP Network Projection Operation Guide for instruc‐ tions.

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.
Page 93
Using the Interactive Features over a Network
Make sure the following ports are opened.
Port Protocol Usage Communication
93
3620 TCP/UDP For connection and con‐
trol
3621 TCP For transferring images Duplex
3629 TCP For controlling projector Duplex
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.
Epson does not guarantee the connection to the projector on a
a
different subnet using EasyMP Network Projection even if you meet the above requirements. When considering the implementation, be sure to test the connection in your network environment.
