WARNING: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your eyes.
Never let children look into the lens when it is on. Never open any cover on the projector, except the lamp and
filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the projector can severely injure you. Except as specifically
explained in this User’s Guide, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
WARNING: The projector and its accessories come packaged in plastic bags. Keep plastic bags away from small
children to avoid any risk of suffocation.
Caution: When you replace the lamp, never touch the new lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by
the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.

Remote control
USB cable
Carrying case
Save all packaging in case you need to ship the projector. Always use
the original packaging (or the equivalent) when you need to send the
projector to another location. See page 91 for transportation
instructions. If you are moving the projector by hand, use a carrying
case (included with the EX3200/EX5200/EX7200 only).
Additional Components
Depending on how you plan to use the projector, you may need
additional components:
■To receive an HDMI signal from your video device, you’ll need
an HDMI cable (EX5200/EX7200 only). One may be provided
with your video equipment.
■To receive a component video signal from a DVD player or other
video device, you’ll need a component-to-VGA video cable. One
may be included with your video equipment, or you can purchase
the ELPKC19 cable from Epson. See “Optional Accessories” on
page 18.
■To receive an S-Video signal, you’ll need an S-Video cable. One
may be included with your video equipment, or you can purchase
one from Epson. See “Optional Accessories” on page 18.
■To receive an audio signal, you’ll need an RCA-type audio cable
with two male plugs (EX5200/EX7200), or a stereo mini-jack to
RCA-type audio adapter cable (with red and white jacks on one
end; VS200/EX3200).
Setting Up the Projector23
Positioning the Projector
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re using, you’ll
probably want to place it on a table in front of the screen. This lets
you stand in the front of the room, face the audience, and remain
close enough to the equipment to be able to control it.
Keep these considerations in mind as you position the projector:
■Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface.
■Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and
under the projector.
■Make sure the projector is within 5.9 feet (1.8 meters) of a
grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
Image size increases with distance, but can vary depending on the
aspect ratio (image shape), how you zoom into the image, and
whether you’ve adjusted other image settings. Use the illustrations and
tables below to help you determine the projection distance.

Projector Placement Options
When projecting from the front, you should place the projector
directly in front of the center of the screen, facing the screen squarely.
The center of the lens should be about level with the bottom of the
screen.
Front projection
If you place the projector below screen level, you may need to tilt it up
by extending the front adjustable foot. Tilting the projector causes the
image to become “keystone” shaped, but you can correct the
distortion (see page 51). The EX5200/EX7200 may be able to correct
the distortion automatically.
You can also install the projector in three other viewing setups: ceiling
projection, rear projection onto a semi-transparent screen, or rear/
ceiling projection.
