Projector Features

Stacking Two Projectors
Two projectors are stacked one on top of the
other to project one image. By usin g thi s stacke d
projection, you can realize a brighter, clearer
image.
Because the projectors are linked together, you
can operate both projectors as if you were only
operating one.
Superimpose Two Images with Ease
This device comes equipped with a function that allows you to easily
superimpose two images. See the following manual when superimposing
images for the first time after installation.
s
Startup Guide
Project Realistic 3D Images
Project stunning 3D content from media such as
3D Blu-ray discs or 3D games. You need the
supplied or optional 3D Glasses (ELPGS02A/
ELPGS02B) and a commercially available silver
screen to view 3D images.
s "Projecting 3D Images" p.42
Useful Functions for Projecting Images
Increasing projection content in wide (WXGA) screen
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.39
Making the most of the remote control
You can use the remote control to perform operations such as enlarging
part of the image.

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.

Installation Methods
Before installing, you first need to setup the top and bottom projectors. See
the following manual for more information on setting up the projectors and
the installation methods.
s
Startup Guide
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 projectors 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 projectors 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.
• You cannot view 3D images when projecting onto a rear screen. To
a
view 3D images, project onto the front of a silver screen designed
for passive 3D images.
