Introduction

Projector Features

Dynamic 3D Display

Enjoy 3D contents on Blu-ray and images filmed with a 3D camera through a stunning projection display. s p.42

You need dedicated 3D Glasses based on 3D Active Shutter Eyewear Technology to view 3D images. s p.43

Selecting Modes to Match what you are Watching (Color Mode)

By simply selecting the Color Mode, you can project the optimum image to suit your surroundings. s p.29

Setting Example

	Living Room								Cinema
For use in a bright room						For movies and concerts in a dark room

Absolute Color Adjustment

As well as using Color Mode, you can also adjust the absolute color temperature of the image and skin tones to suit your taste.s p.35

What's more, you can obtain colors that match the image and achieve the colors you want through a combination of gamma adjustment, RGB offset or gain adjustment for each color, and hue, saturation, and brightness adjustment for each RGBCMY color. s p.32

Introduction

Conforms to Wireless Transmissions for the WirelessHD Standards (EH-TW6100W Only)

The projector can wirelessly receive data for images and audio from WirelessHD compatible AV devices. You do not need to connect a cable directly to the main projector unit.

You can connect up to five AV devices to the WirelessHD Transmitter at the same time, and switch images using the remote control.

You can also connect other output devices such as televisions, and switch the device. This allows other output devices to project images from the connected AV device, even if the projector is off. s p.49

Projector	Transmitter	Multi-media players, game consoles,
		and so on

Other Useful Functions

In addition, the following useful functions are provided.

•The remote control contains a backlight function allowing for easy use even in dark rooms. Operations are also simplified by only pressing the button. s p.10

•Audio is played back via the built-in speaker eliminating the need for external speakers. The Inverse Audio function also allows you to switch the left and right audio streams when the projector is suspended from a ceiling. s p.71

•You can view slideshows by simply connecting a USB memory to the projector. When a digital camera is connected, you can view the photos on the camera using Slideshow. s p.63

•The H-Keystone slider allows you to quickly correct keystone distortion when the projector cannot be setup directly in front of the screen. Because it is a slider, you can make corrections intuitively. s p.26

Preparing

Installing

Various Projection Methods

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, lubricants, or oil on the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent 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 projector and also damage the projector.

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

•Try not to setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Attention

Clean the air filter once every three months. Clean it more often if the environment is particularly dusty. s p.91

Placing on a table and so on and projecting Suspending from the ceiling and projecting

c	•	When projecting from a ceiling, change Projection to a ceiling setting. sSettings - Projection p.71
	•	Set Inverse Audio to On to use the built-in speaker when the projector is suspended from a ceiling.
		s Settings - Audio - Inverse Audio p.71
	•	When the projector cannot be setup directly in front of the screen, you can correct keystone distortion
		with the H-Keystone slider. s p.26

Connecting to a Device

Attention

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

•Check the shape of the cable's connector and the shape of the port, and then connect. If you force a connector of a different shape into the port, it could cause damage and a malfunction to occur.

EH-TW6100W comes with an interface cover allowing you to clearly see the connector section on the rear. Remove the interface cover before connecting any cables. s p.20

Connecting to Video Equipment

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

When using an HDMI cable

Fix the HDMI cable in place using the HDMI cable clamp. s p.20

When using a video cable

When using a component video cable

c• The cable differs depending on the output signal from the connected video equipment.

• Some types of video equipment are capable of outputting different types of signals. Check the user's guide supplied with the video equipment to confirm which signals can be output.

Connecting to a Computer

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

When using a computer cable

When using an HDMI cable

Fix the HDMI cable in place using the HDMI cable clamp. s p.20

Connecting to External Devices

Connecting USB devices

You can connect USB devices such as USB memories, and USB compatible digital cameras.

Using the USB cable supplied with the USB device, connect the USB device to the USB (TypeA) port on the projector.

When the USB device is connected, you can project image files on the USB memory or digital camera as a slideshow. s p.63

When you have finished projecting, remove USB devices from the projector. For devices with a power switch, make sure you turn them off before disconnecting the USB device.

Attention

•If you use a USB hub, the connection may not operate correctly. Devices such as digital cameras and USB devices should be connected to the projector directly.

•Connect a digital camera using a USB cable specified for use with the device.

•Use a USB cable less than 3 m in length. If the cable exceeds 3 m, slideshow may not function correctly.

Preparing

Connecting WirelessHD devices (EH-TW6100W only)

The projector receives transmissions from the WirelessHD Transmitter, and projects the images. s p.49

Change the projected image by pressing the button on the remote control or the button on the control panel.

c• When receiving WirelessHD images, make sure WirelessHD is set to On. s Settings -

WirelessHD p.71

•You can change which device is displayed by selecting a device from Device Connections in HDMI Link. s HDMI Link-Device Connections p.60

Removing the Interface Cover

The interface cover is attached to the connector section on the rear of EH-TW6100W. Remove this cover when using a cable to connect a device.

There are gaps at the bottom of the interface cover that allows you to pull the cover forward and lift it from the grooves at the top.

c	•	When reattaching, first insert the protruding sections into the grooves at the top.
	•	Make sure you store the interface cover safely, as you need this when transporting the projector.

Connecting an HDMI Cable Clamp

If the HDMI cable is thick and hangs down, make sure you secure it to the cable holder with an HDMI clamp so that the cable's weight does not disconnect it from the port.
