Introduction

This chapter explains the projector's features and the part names.

Projector Features

Quick and Easy Set up, Projection, and Storage

• Turn the projector on and off by simply plugging in or unplugging.

• Project onto large screens from a short distance.

• Make easy height adjustments with one lever.

• No cool down delay makes it easy to put away.

• Turn on the projector by simply receiving an image signal.

Connecting with a USB cable and projecting (USB Display)

By simply connecting a USB cable, you can project images from a computer's screen without a computer cable.

s "Projecting with USB Display" p.43

Detecting projector movements and automatically correcting image distortion

This projector automatically corrects vertical keystone distortion which occurs when positioning or moving the projector.

"Correcting automatically" p.48

Horizontal keystone adjuster

This allows you to quickly correct horizontal distortion in the projected image. This is useful if you cannot install the projector parallel to the screen.

"Correcting manually" p.48

Useful Functions for Projecting Images

Project two images simultaneously (Split Screen)

This function divides the projected screen in two and projects two types of image side-byside. By simultaneously projecting images from two sources on one screen, you can raise the impact of your message or proposition during video conferences or presentations.

s "Projecting Two Images Simultaneously (Split Screen)" p.59

Projector Features

Increasing projection content in wide (WXGA) screen (EB-955WH/ EB-950WH/EB-W29 only)

With a computer that has a 16:10 WXGA wide LCD display, the image can be projected in the same aspect. You can use whiteboards and other landscape format screens.

s "Changing the Aspect Ratio of the Projected Image" p.55

Connect a USB storage device and project movies or images (PC Free)

You can connect USB storage devices or digital cameras to the projector and project saved images.

A wide range of file formats are supported such as movies or images.

"Projecting Without a Computer (PC Free)" p.63

Various functions for excellent power saving

• Various functions to prevent wasting electricity The projector comes with a number of built-in functions to save power

such as dimming the projected image, an auto power off timer, and adjusting power consumption while the projector is standing by.

"ECO Menu" p.117

• Function for displaying the power-saving status on the projected screen When ECO Display is set to On from the Configuration menu, leaf icons (

) that indicate the power-saving status are displayed at the bottomleft of the projected screen when the lamp brightness has switched to low brightness.

ECO - ECO Display p.117

Making the most of the remote control

You can use the remote control to perform operations such as enlarging part of the image. You can also use the remote control as a pointer during presentations or as a mouse for the computer.

"Pointer Function (Pointer)" p.72

"Enlarging Part of the Image (E-Zoom)" p.73

Flip the image horizontally and project (Flip Horizontal)

You can temporarily flip the image horizontally and project. This is useful when projecting images for dance lessons and so on.

"Flipping the Image Horizontally (Flip Horizontal)" p.68

"Using the Remote Control to Operate the Mouse Pointer (Wireless

Mouse)" p.74

Enlarge and project your files with the Document Camera

You can project paper documents and objects using the optional Document Camera.

By connecting to a computer and using the software supplied, you can make full use of the projector's capabilities.

"Optional Accessories" p.154

"Connecting a LAN Cable" p.34

Connecting to a network and projecting images from the computer's screen

You can project your computer's screen over a network by using EasyMP Network Projection. Sharing the projector over the network allows you to project data from different computers without changing the signal cable. Even if the projector is away from the computer, you can still project data over a network.

You can find EasyMP Network Projection on the EPSON Projector Software CD-ROM.

Easy connection to a computer with Quick Wireless Connection (Windows only)

By simply connecting the optional Quick Wireless Connection USB Key to a computer, you can automatically setup a wireless LAN connection.

s "Installing the Quick Wireless Connection USB Key" p.37

"Installing the Wireless LAN Unit" p.36

Projecting images from portable devices over a network

If Epson iProjection is installed on your smart phone or tablet device, you can wirelessly project data from the device. Because you can operate these devices from any location, you can vary the way in which conferences or presentations are made.

Projector Features

You can download Epson iProjection for free from the App Store or from Google play. Any fees incurred when communicating with the App Store or Google play are the responsibility of the customer.

Projecting images from multiple computers simultaneously

By using EasyMP Multi PC Projection, up to four screens from multiple computers connected to the network, or from smartphones or tablets with Epson iProjection installed, can be projected simultaneously adding a touch of dynamism to conferences that use projectors. By making yourself the host of a meeting, you can control the projected screens from other connected computers allowing you to advance the meeting smoothly.

You can also project the same screen from remote projectors on the network.

You can find EasyMP Multi PC Projection on the EPSON Projector Software CD-ROM.

Replacing the remote control batteries

If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new batteries. Have two AA size manganese or alkaline batteries ready. You cannot use other batteries except for the AA size manganese or alkaline.

Attention

Make sure you read the following manual before handling the batteries. s Safety Instructions

Remove the battery cover.

While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover up.

Caution

Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure the batteries are inserted the correct way.

If the batteries are not used correctly, they could explode or leak causing a fire, injury, or damage to the product.

Replace the old batteries with new batteries.

Replace the battery cover.

Press the battery compartment cover until it clicks into place.

Preparing the Projector

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

Installing the Projector

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location.

• Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)

• Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceiling projection)

• Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear 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 ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• If you use adhesives on 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 ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the ceiling mount and could damage the projector. When installing or adjusting the ceiling mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants 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.

Attention

Do not use the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

• An optional Ceiling mount is required when suspending the

projector from a ceiling. s "Optional Accessories" p.154

• The default Projection setting is Front. You can change from Front to Rear from the Configuration menu.

s Extended - Projection p.106

• 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.

Installing the Projector

• 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.

Screen Size and Approximate Projection Distance

Projection size is determined by the distance from the projector to the screen. See the illustrations on the right to select the best position according to the screen size. The illustrations show the approximate shortest distance at maximum zoom. See the following for more information on the projection distance.

"Screen Size and Projection Distance" p.155

Connecting Equipment

Illustrations in this section are of EB-965H.

The port name, number, location, and connector orientation differ depending on the source being connected.

Connecting a Computer

To project images from a computer, connect the computer using one of the following methods.

When using the supplied computer cable

Connect the computer's display output port to the projector's Computer port. You can output audio from the projector's speaker by connecting the audio output port on the computer to the projector's Audio port using a commercially available audio cable.

When using the supplied or commercially available USB cable

Connect the computer's USB port to the projector's USB-B port. You can send the computer's audio with the projected image.

When using a commercially available HDMI cable

Connect the computer's HDMI port to the projector's HDMI port. You can send the computer's audio with the projected image.

Connecting Equipment

• You can change the audio input source in Audio Output.

s Extended - A/V Settings - Audio Output p.106

• You can use a USB cable to connect the projector to a computer to project images from the computer. This function is called USB Display.

s "Projecting with USB Display" p.43

Connecting Image Sources

To project images from DVD players or VHS video and so on, connect to the projector using one of the following methods.

When using a commercially available video or S-video cable

Connect the video output port on the image source to the projector's Video port. Or, connect the S-video output port on the image source to the projector's S-Video port. You can output audio from the projector's speaker by connecting the audio output port on the image source to the projector's Audio-L/R port using a commercially available audio cable.

When using the optional component video cable

s "Optional Accessories" p.154 Connect the component output port on the image source to the projector's Computer input port. You can output audio from the projector's speaker by connecting the audio output

port on the image source to the projector's Audio port using a commercially available audio cable.

When using a commercially available HDMI cable

Connect the HDMI port on the image source to the projector's HDMI port. You can send the image source's audio with the projected image.

Connecting Equipment

Attention

• Turn off the equipment you want to connect before connecting. If the input source is on when you connect it to the projector, it could cause a malfunction.

• If the orientation or shape of the plug differs, do not try to force it in. The device could be damaged or could malfunction.

• You can change the audio input source in Audio Output.

s Extended - A/V Settings - Audio Output p.106

• If the source you want to connect to has an unusually shaped port, use the cable supplied with the device or an optional cable to connect to the projectors.

• When using a commercially available 2RCA(L/R)/stereo mini-pin audio cable, make sure it is labeled "No resistance".
