Setting Up the Projector
Follow the instructions in these sections to set up your projector for use.
Projector Placement
Attaching and Removing the Cable Clips
Connecting to a Computer for HDMI Video and Audio
Connecting to an HDMI Video Source
Connecting to External Speakers
Inserting an SD Card
Installing Batteries in the Remote Control
Projector Placement
Your projector is designed to be installed on a wall or ceiling (with the included mount).
You can also place the projector on almost any flat surface (with the optional floor stand) to project an
image in a portable setup, or on a lighting track (with the optional lighting track mount).
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Follow the instructions in the Installation Guide to install the projector on a wall or ceiling.
• If installing on a lighting track, use only the optional lighting track mount (ELPMB54).
• If the projector is not mounted, place it on a sturdy, level surface using the optional floor stand
(ELPMB55).
• Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or
next to anything that could block the vents.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.

Projector Setup and Installation Options
You can set up or install your projector in the following ways:
23
Mounted on a ceiling or lighting track
Mounted on a wall
Placed on the floor or on a table or portable cart
24
Note: Use the direct mount (included) only for mounting the projector on a wall or ceiling. If installing on
a lighting track, use only the optional lighting track mount (ELPMB54). If you do not mount the projector,
use only the optional floor stand (ELPMB55).
Note: Be sure to leave at least the following amount of space around the projector to avoid blocking the
air exhaust and intake vents.
111.8 inches (30 cm)
27.8 inches (20 cm)
If you are installing multiple projectors next to each other, be sure to leave at least 20 inches (50 cm) of
space between the projectors. Also make sure heated air from an exhaust vent does not go into the air
intake vent of another projector.
25
You can rotate the projection unit 360 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically. You can also tilt
the image 90 degrees in either direction.
Make sure to select the correct Projection setting in the Extended menu.
Adjusting the Projection Angle
Parent topic: Projector Placement
Adjusting the Projection Angle
You can adjust the projection angle using the ball joint on the projection unit.
1.Turn the projector on.
26
2.Loosen the ball joint screw using the supplied hexagonal wrench. Make sure to support the
projection unit while loosening the screw so that it does not move suddenly.
Warning: Do not grip the ball joint with your fingers while loosening the screw or your fingers could
get pinched.
27
3.Tilt the projection unit to adjust the projection angle.
Caution: Make sure the cables do not tangle around the ball joint or you may damage the projector.
4.When you finish, tighten the ball joint screw using the supplied hexagonal wrench. Make sure to
support the projection unit so that it does not move.
Caution: Do not force the ball joint to move after tightening the ball joint screw or you may damage
the projector.
Parent topic: Projector Setup and Installation Options
Projection Distance
The distance at which you place the projector from the screen determines the approximate size of the
image. The image size increases the farther the projector is from the screen, but can vary depending on
the zoom factor, aspect ratio, and other settings.
Refer to the tables in the Installation Guide to determine approximately how far to place the projector
from the screen based on the size of the projected image. (Conversion figures may have been rounded
up or down.) You can also use the Projection Distance Calculator here (U.S.), here (Canada), or here
(Caribbean).

Attaching and Removing the Cable Clips
You can install the cable clips that came with your projector to provide additional support to the power
cord and HDMI cable.
1.Connect the power cord and HDMI cable to the projector.
2.Insert the end of each cable clip anchor into the cable clip slot above the power inlet and HDMI port
as shown.
1Cable clip slot
2Cable clip anchor
3Power cable clip
4HDMI cable clip
29
3.Place the open cable clips around the power cord and HDMI cable, but do not lock them.
4.Slide each cable clip onto the anchors and lock the clips onto the power and HDMI anchors as
shown.
To remove the cable clips, open the clips and disconnect the cables. Then pinch the sides of each cable
clip anchor and carefully pull them out of the cable clip slots.
Parent topic: Setting Up the Projector
Connecting to a Computer for HDMI Video and Audio
If your computer has an HDMI port, you can connect it to the projector using an optional HDMI cable.
Note: To connect a Mac that does not include an HDMI video output port, you need to obtain an adapter
that allows you to connect to the HDMI input port on the projector. Contact Apple for compatible adapter
options. To connect a smartphone or tablet, you may need to obtain an adapter that allows you to
connect to the HDMI input port on the projector. This allows you to mirror your smartphone or tablet
screens, watch movies, and more. Contact your device manufacturer for compatible adapter options.
1.Connect the HDMI cable to your computer's HDMI output port.
2.Connect the other end to the projector's HDMI port.
Note: The projector converts the digital audio signal sent from your computer into a stereo analog signal
if you are connecting to external speakers. (Make sure the HDMI audio playback device on your
computer's audio settings is set to EPSON PJ.)
