Compatible Video Formats

The projector supports computer displays ranging from VGA through UXGA. EPSONs patented SizeWise
chip automatically resizes images as needed to display in the projectors native format. The projector also supports the new Digital Visual Interface (DVI) format, as well as NTSC, PAL, SECAM, and HDTV international video standards.
To project images output from a computer, the computer’s video card must be set at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) thats compatible with the projector; see the following table for compatible formats. Note that the frequencies of some computers may not allow images to be displayed correctly; see your computers documentation for details.

Positioning the Projector

The projector can be installed in three ways:
front projection
Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, making sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and under the projector.
overhead projection
To project from overhead, select Advanced menu. To mount the projector, use the special attachments and adapters listed in Optional Accessories on page 14.
rear-screen projection
To project from behind a semi-transparent screen, select
Rear Proj. in the projectors Advanced menu.
When equipped with the standard lens, you can place the projector anywhere from 21 inches to 48 feet from the screen. Image size varies with projection distance, as shown below; for more information, see page 5.
Ceiling in the projector’s
Adjust the height of the image using the lens shift knob, as shown below. If the knob is recessed, press and release it so that it extends; then turn it clockwise or counterclockwise to move the image up or down. When youre finished, press the knob back in.

If the image still isnt high enough, you can raise it further using the projectors feet. Pull up on the blue foot release levers to release the feet.

distance from screen
Be sure to center the projector in front of the screen (not off to one side at an angle), or your image wont be square.

Adjusting the Height of the Image

You wont need to tilt the projector upward as long as you position it so that its lens is at least as high as the bottom of the screen, but no higher than the middle of the screen, as shown. This delivers the best-looking picture.
no higher than middle of screen

no lower than
bottom of screen
Once the image is positioned where you want it, release the levers to lock the feet in position. You can fine-tune the height of the projector by turning the feet.
If the image is no longer square after raising it, see the following section.

Correcting Keystone Distortion

If the projected image isnt square or has keystone shape, press the
Keystone button on top of the

projector to correct it. Press on the right + or left – side of the
