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

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.

s "Correcting manually" p.48

Detecting projector movements and automatically correcting image distortion

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

s "Correcting automatically" 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-by- side. 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.

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

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.

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

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.

s "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.

s 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.

s "Pointer Function (Pointer)" p.72

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

s "Using the Remote Control to Operate the Mouse Pointer (Wireless Mouse)" p.74

Taking Full Advantage of a Network Connection

By connecting a LAN cable (except for EB-S29/EB-S27) or the optional Wireless LAN unit, you can connect to a network and access the following functions.

s "Connecting a LAN Cable" p.34

s "Installing the Wireless LAN Unit" p.36

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

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

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

a 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.

c Replace the battery cover.

Press the battery compartment cover until it clicks into place.

b Replace the old batteries with new batteries.

(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.

a• 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

 

25

 

 

 

• 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.

a• See the following if you cannot install the projector parallel to the screen.

s "Correcting Keystone Distortion" p.47

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.47

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.

s "Screen Size and Projection Distance" p.155

aWhen you correct keystone distortion, the projected image may be reduced.
