Introduction

our compact, lightweight EPSON EMP-9000/9000NL/ 8000/8000NL projector lets you project full-color images and video onto a large screen for presentations. You can connect it simultaneously to two image sources: one PC or Apple® Macintosh® computer image sources, plus one video source such as a video tape deck, camcorder, or digital camera. You can also connect audio for each image source.

Images are displayed in full color (16,670,000 colors) at a resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels (EMP-8000/8000NL) and 1366 × 1024 pixels (EMP-9000/9000NL). Your projector produces bright images that can be easily seen in rooms light enough to take notes. Your projector’s 3W+3W speakers employ a built-in SRS 3D Sound System for rich, powerful audio output. You can even connect an external speaker when further amplification is required. A totally new AVTSS™ (Automatic Video Tracking and Synchronization Sensing, patent pending) provides automatic set-up of image from a computer.

■

You can control your projector through a hand-held remote control unit, with menus being provided for image source switching and image adjustment. The remote control can also act as a wireless mouse to control mouse operations on your computer screen during presentations. Additionally, you can install the projector’s ELP Link IV software to control the projector’s setting from your computer and enhance your presentations with special effects.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■

vii

Your projector features the newest resizing technology DAR (Digital Active Resizing) which supports the true XGA (EMP8000/8000NL) and SXGA (EMP-9000/9000NL) computer output, as well as VGA, SXGA (EMP-9000/9000NL) output and SVGA, XGA (EMP-8000/8000NL) output. No matter what type of computer output is used, the result is a full-size video image of outstanding clarity.

The EMP-9000/9000NL/8000/8000NL projector supports IBM compatible PCs and laptops, as well as Apple® Macintosh®, Power Macintosh and PowerBook computers. The video source can be NTSC, PAL or SECAM in composite video, S-Video format. See Chapter 7 for details on supported computers and video formats.

Installation

This chapter describes how to unpack and set up your

projector, and connect it to other equipment. The projector must be connected to a computer or a video source such as a video tape deck, camcorder, digital camera or laser disk player before it can project any images. You may also want to set up the projector for one or more of the following:

• Connect the mouse cable to use the remote control as a

wireless mouse.

• Connect the projector to an audio source for one or both

image sources. The audio source can be the computer, video source, or another device such as a stereo.

• Connect the projector to an external speaker or PA system

to amplify the audio.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■

Unpacking the Projector

When you unpack the projector, make sure you have all these components:

• Projector

• Remote control

• 2 AA batteries

• Power cord

Depending on the configuration of your equipment, you may not need all these components.

Save all packaging materials in case you need to ship the projector in the future. It should be transported in its original packaging or the equivalent.

Additional Components

Depending on how you plan to use the projector, you may need these additional components:

• To receive an S-Video signal, you need an S-Video cable.

(One is usually provided with your video device.) A separate cable is required for each video source.

Unpacking the Projector

■ ■ ■ ■ ■

Setting Up the Projector

1. Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface within five

feet of the computer or video source.

♦

Caution:

Do not hold the projector by the lens. This can damage

the lens.

2. Place the projector at a correct distance from the screen.

The distance between the projector and the screen determines the actual image size. Use the general guidelines below to determine the correct distance.

Screen size Horizontal distance from projector to screen

300 inches (610x460cm)460.6 inches (11.7 m) ~ 586.6 inches (14.9m) 200 inches (410x300cm) 307.1 inches (7.8 m) ~ 389.8 inches (9.9 m) 100 inches (200x150cm) 153.5 inches (3.9 m) ~ 192.9 inches (4.9 m) 80 inches (160x120cm) 122.0 inches (3.1 m) ~ 153.5 inches (3.9 m) 60 inches (120x90cm) 90.6 inches (2.3 m) ~ 114.2 inches (2.9 m) 40 inches (81x61cm) 59.1 inches (1.5 m) ~ 74.8 inches (1.9 m) 30 inches (61x46cm) 43.3 inches (1.1 m) ~ 55.1 inches (1.4 m)

Note:

The projection distance described above is for a standard lens. When using the optional lens, refer to the Owner’s manuals attached to it.

3. Turn the projector so that the lens is at right angles to the

screen. If the projector is not angled correctly, the screen image will be crooked.

■ ■ ■ ■

4. Connect one end of the power cable to the projector’s

power connector. Connect the other end to an earthed electrical socket. The projector should be in sleep mode, indicated by an orange power indicator.

♦

Warning:

Never look into the lens when the projector is on. There is a risk that the projector might come on suddenly even though it is not in use. The light from the lamp can damage your eyes. It is especially important that children should not be allowed to look into the lens.

5. To insert the batteries in the remote control device, slide

off the battery compartment cover.

6. Insert the two AA batteries included with the projector.

Make sure the polarity of the batteries is correct.

7. Replace the battery compartment cover. When replacing batteries, take the following precautions:

• Do not recharge the used batteries or expose to fire or

water.

• Replace batteries as soon as they run out. If the batteries

leak, wipe away battery fluid with a soft cloth. If fluid gets on your hands, wash them immediately.

• Remove the batteries if you will not be using the projector

for a long period of time.

Setting Up the Projector
