Preparing the Projector

This chapter explains how to install the projector and connect projection sources.

Installing the Projector		23

Installation Methods

The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location.

Turn the projector off when installing the projector or changing the installation method. Turn the power back on after completing installation.

•Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection)

•Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projection)

•Suspend the projector from a wall or ceiling and project images from in front of a screen. (Front/Ceiling projection)

•Suspend the projector from the ceiling and project images from behind a translucent screen.

(Rear/Ceiling projection)

Warning

•A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a wall or ceiling. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

•If you use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or the ceiling mount fixing points to prevent the 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 mount. This could cause serious injury to

anyone under the mount and could damage the projector.

When installing or adjusting the mount, do not use adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use lubricant or oil and so on.

• Do not cover the projector's air intake vent or air exhaust vent. If either of the vents are covered, the internal temperature could rise and cause a fire.

•Do not use the projector in a location subject to combustible or explosive gas. The projector may catch fire due to the high internal temperature of the lamp.

Attention

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

Installing the Projector		24

a• We recommend using a smooth, board type screen without any unevenness. If the projection screen is uneven, there may be distortions in the projected image.

• Distortions may occur in the projected image depending on the material of the screen and the installation method.

•When installing the projector on a wall or on the ceiling, make sure you use the correct tools for the installation method.

s "Optional Accessories" p.172

•The default Projection setting is Front. You can change from Front to Rear from the Configuration menu.

s Extended - Projection p.120

•You can change the Projection mode as follows by pressing down the [A/V Mute] button on the remote control for about five seconds.

FrontWFront/Ceiling RearWRear/Ceiling

Installation Methods

Install the projector as follows.

• Install the projector so that it is parallel to the screen.

If the projector is installed at an angle to the screen, keystone distortion occurs in the projected image.

•Place the projector on a level surface.

If the projector is tilted the projected image is also tilted.

a• See the following if you cannot install the projector parallel to the screen.

s "Correcting Keystone Distortion" p.48

•See the following if you cannot install the projector on a level surface.

s "Adjusting the Horizontal Tilt" p.52 s "Correcting Keystone Distortion" p.48

When Using the Interactive Features (EB-536Wi only)

Project from in front of the screen when using the interactive features. Set the Projection mode to Front or Front/Ceiling.

Install the projector so that the angle of tilt is ±7° vertically and ±5° horizontally against the projection side.

Installing the Projector		25

Attention

The interactive features operates by infrared communication. Note the following points when installing the projector.

•Make sure there is no strong light or sunlight shining on the Easy Interactive Function receiver, the projection screen, the projector itself, or the rear of the projector.

•Do not install the projector in direct sunlight through a window. This could

cause the interactive features to malfunction.

• If there is any dust stuck to the Easy Interactive Function receiver, it could interfere with infrared communication and you may not be able to use the function normally. Clean the receiver if it is dirty.

•Do not put paint or any stickers on the cover of the Easy Interactive Function receiver.

•Install the projector so that the Easy Interactive Function receiver is not too

close to fluorescent lights. If the surrounding area is too bright, the interactive features may not operate correctly.

•When using the interactive features, do not use an infrared remote control or microphone in the same room. The Easy Interactive Pen could malfunction.

•Do not use devices that generate powerful noise, such as rotary devices or transformers, near the projector. You may not be able to operate the interactive features.

a• When using the interactive features, install so that the projected screen is a rectangle without any distortion.

•When using the interactive features in the same room as multiple projectors, Easy Interactive Pen operations may become unstable. In this situation, connect the optional Remote control cable set (ELPKC28) to the projectors, and change Sync of Projectors to Wired from the Configuration menu.

Connecting Equipment		26

The port name, location, and connector orientation differ depending on the source being connected.

Connecting a Computer

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

AWhen using the supplied or optional computer cable

Connect the computer's display output port to the projector's Computer1 or Computer2 port. You can output audio from the projector's speaker by connecting the computer's audio output port to the projector's Audio1 or Audio2 port using a commercially available audio cable.

BWhen using the supplied or commercially available USB cable

Connect the computer's USB port to the projector's USB-B port. Audio from the computer is output from the projector with the projected image.

CWhen using a commercially available HDMI cable

Connect the computer's HDMI port to the projector's HDMI port. Audio from the computer is output from the projector with the projected image.

Connecting Equipment		27

a• You can also set the port used for audio input from the Configuration menu. s Extended - A/V Settings - Audio Output p.120

•If audio is not output when an HDMI cable is connected, connect a commercially available audio cable to the audio input port. After connecting the cable, select the input port you connected to from HDMI Audio Output from the Configuration menu.

s Extended - A/V Settings - HDMI Audio Output p.120

• You can use a USB cable to connect the projector to a computer to project images from the computer. This function is called USB Display. s "Projecting with USB Display" p.45

Connecting Equipment		28

Connecting Image Sources

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

AWhen using a commercially available video or S-video cable

Connect the video output port on the image source to the projector's Video port. Or, connect the S-video output port on the image source to the projector's S-Video port. You can output audio from the projector's speaker by connecting the audio output port on the image source to the projector's Audio-L/R port using a commercially available audio cable.

BWhen using the optional component video cable s "Optional Accessories" p.172

Connect the component output port on the image source to the projector's Computer1 or Computer2 port. You can output audio from the projector's speaker by connecting the audio output port on the image source to the projector's Audio1 or Audio2 port using a commercially available audio cable.

CWhen using a commercially available HDMI cable

Connect the HDMI port on the image source to the projector's HDMI port. Audio from the image source is output from the projector with the projected image.

Connecting Equipment		29

Attention

• Turn	off the equipment you want to connect before connecting. If the input source is on when you connect it to the projector, it could cause a malfunction.
• If the orientation or shape of the plug differs, do			not try to force it in. The device could be damaged or could malfunction.
a	• You can also set the port used	for audio	input from the Configuration menu.
