Various Setting 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 items such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the outer projector case may crack, which causes it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the projector and also damage the projector.

•

Do not set up the projector in locations exposed to high humidity and dust, such as on a kitchen counter, in the kitchen, or near a humidifier, or in locations exposed to oil smoke or steam. Doing so could cause fire or electric shock. In addition, the oil content could cause the projector’s outer case to deteriorate and could cause the projector to fall off from the ceiling where it is suspended.

•

Do not install it on an unstable shelf or in a place out of load range. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.

•

When installing it in a high position such as on a shelf, take measures against falling by using wires to ensure the safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

•

Do not block the air intake vent and air exhaust vent of the projector. Blocking its air intake vent and air exhaust vent may trap heat inside causing fire.

Attention

•

Do not use the projector installed vertically. Doing so could cause a malfunction.

•

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

p.100

Placing on a table and projecting

You can install the projector on a table in your living room or on a low shelf to project images.

Useful Functions

Using 3D Glasses

You can view 3D images by using a pair of commercially available 3D Glasses (with an active shutter system that supports radio waves (RF/Bluetooth) communication system).

To view 3D images, you first need to pair the 3D Glasses with the projector. See the User's Guide supplied with your 3D Glasses for more information.

Warnings Regarding Viewing 3D Images

Note the following important points when viewing 3D images.

Caution

Viewing Time

•

When viewing 3D images, always take periodic breaks during extended viewing. Long periods of viewing 3D images may cause eye fatigue. The amount of time and frequency of such breaks varies from person to person. If your eyes still feel tired or uncomfortable even after taking a break from viewing, stop viewing immediately.

Caution

Watching 3D Images

•

If your eyes feel fatigued or uncomfortable when viewing 3D images, stop viewing immediately. Continuing to view the 3D images could cause you to feel unwell.

•

When viewing 3D images be sure to always wear 3D Glasses. Do not attempt to view 3D images without 3D Glasses. Doing so could cause you to feel unwell.

•

Do not place any breakable or fragile objects around you when using 3D Glasses. 3D images may cause you to move your body involuntarily, resulting in damage to nearby items or personal injury.

•

Only wear 3D Glasses when viewing 3D images. Do not move around while wearing 3D Glasses. Your vision may appear darker than normal, causing you to fall or injure yourself.

•

Try to stay as level with the viewing screen as possible when viewing 3D images. Viewing 3D images at an angle reduces the 3D effect and may cause you to feel unwell due to unintended color changes.

•

If using 3D Glasses in a room with fluorescent or LED lighting, you may see flashing or flickering throughout the room. If this should occur, reduce the lighting until the flickering goes away or turn off the lights completely when viewing 3D images. In some very rare cases, this flickering could trigger seizures or fainting for some individuals. If you begin to feel uncomfortable or unwell at any time when viewing 3D images, stop immediately.

•

Stay at least three times the height of the screen away from the screen when viewing 3D images. The recommended viewing distance for an 80-inch screen is at least 3 meters, and at least 3.6 meters for a 100-inch screen. Sitting or standing any closer than the recommended viewing distance may result in eye fatigue.

Useful Functions

Caution

Health Risks

•

You should not use 3D Glasses if you are sensitive to light, have a heart condition, or are unwell. Doing so could aggravate your pre-existing conditions.

Caution

Recommended Age of Use

•

The minimum recommended age to view 3D images is six years old.

•

Children under the age of six are still developing and viewing 3D images may cause complications. Consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

•

Children viewing 3D images through 3D Glasses should always be accompanied by an adult. It is often difficult to tell when a child is feeling tired or uncomfortable, which could result in them feeling suddenly unwell. Always check with your child to ensure that they are not experiencing any eye fatigue during viewing.

Troubleshooting

Check Remedy

Is the power switch on t he side of the supplied WirelessHD Transmitter turned on?

Is the WirelessHD indicator for the supplied WirelessHD Transmitter off?

Is the Link indicator for the supplied WirelessHD Transmitter off?

Are the projector and the WirelessHD Transmitter facing the correct way?

Check the On/Standby indicator on the WirelessHD Transmitter. If there is no power being supplied, make sure the connector for the AC adapter is securely connected, and then turn on the power switch.

The WirelessHD cannot communicate with the projector. Check the range within which the WirelessHD's transceiver can communicate, and setup within that range.

No signal is output from the AV device connected to the Wirel es s HD T r an s mi t te r . C h ec k t ha t th e ca b le s fr o m t h e A V d e vi c e a nd the WirelessHD Transmitter are securely connected.

Setup the projector and the WirelessHD Transmitter so that they are facing each other.

Interference, distortion, or interruption appear in WirelessHD

Check Remedy

Are signals being received within the WirelessHD transmission range?

Are there any obstructions between the WirelessHD Transmitter and the projector?

Check the range within which the WirelessHD's transceiver can communicate, and view within that range.

Because WirelessHD communicates using a tight beamed electromagnetic wave, if there are any people or objects and so on obstructing the communication path, this could have an adverse affect on the image. Make sure that there are no obstacles between the WirelessHD Transmitter and the projector within the WirelessHD transmission range.

Is the reception too low? If the transmissions are not strong enough, communication may

be unstable. Check Video Reception as you set up the transmitter as it is sometimes possible to improve the strength of the transmission by moving the WirelessHD Transmitter or changing its direc-

tion.

Transmission strength may differ depending on the surroundings, or they may be unstable. While checking Video Recep- tion, set up the transmitter at a location where the displayed value stabilizes. tion p.75

Check Remedy

Are there any obstacles between the access point and the connected device?

Is the distance between the access point and the connected device too far?

Are there any Bluetooth devices or microwave oven in the vicinity?

Check for any obstacles between the access point, the mobile device, the computer, and the projector, and change their positions to improve communication.

Make sure that the access point, the mobile device, the computer, and the projector are not too far apart. Move them closer together and try to connect again.

If the wireless connection is slow or your projected image contains noise, check for interference from other equipment, such as a Bluetooth device or microwave. Move the interfering device farther away or expand your wireless bandwidth.
