Projector Placement

You can install the projector on a wall or ceiling, or place it on a table to project images.

Warning

To install the projector on a wall, you must use an optional mount. To mount the projector from a ceiling or vertically on a desk, you can use a commercially available mount compatible with the VESA Mounting Interface Standard (100 × 100 mm).

Note the following points when selecting a projector location:

• Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.

• 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.

• Place the projector so it squarely faces the screen, not at an angle.

If you cannot install the projector squarely facing the screen, correct

any resulting keystone distortion using the projector controls. For the best quality images, we recommend adjusting the installation position of the projector to achieve the correct image size and shape.

• A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a wall or ceiling. If you do not install the projector correctly, it could fall and cause damage or injury.

• Do not use adhesives on the wall mount plate fixing points or other mount fixing points to prevent the screws from loosening, or use lubricants, oils, or similar substances 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.

• Failure to install the ceiling mount and projector may cause the projector to fall. After installing the specific Epson mount that supports your projector, make sure you secure the mount to all of the projector's ceiling mount fixing points. Also, secure the projector and the mounts using wire that is strong enough to hold their weight.

• Do not install the projector in a location subject to high levels of dust or humidity, or in a location subject to smoke or steam. Otherwise, it could cause a fire or electric shock to occur. The projector's case could also deteriorate and be damaged causing the projector to fall from the mount.

Examples of environments that could cause the projector to fall due to case deterioration

• Locations subject to excessive smoke or airborne oil particles, such as factories

or kitchens

• Locations containing volatile solvents or chemicals, such as factories or

laboratories

• Locations where the projector could be subjected to detergents or chemicals,

such as factories or kitchens

• Locations in which aroma oils are often used, such as relaxation rooms

• Near devices that produce excessive smoke, airborne oil particles, or foam at

events

• When you install the projector to a fixed location, turn on the Fixed Installation setting in the projector's Installation menu.

• When you place the projector vertically, turn on the Vertical Installation setting in the projector's Installation menu.

Projector Placement

Warning

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

• Do not use or store the projector in locations where it will be subject to dust or dirt. Otherwise, the quality of the projected image may decline, or the air filter may become clogged, resulting in a malfunction or fire.

• Do not install the projector on an unstable surface or in a location beyond the weight specifications of the projector. Otherwise, it could fall or topple causing an accident and injury.

• When installing the projector in a high position, take measures to prevent falling by using wires to ensure safety in an emergency, such as an earthquake, and to prevent accidents. If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

• Do not install in locations where salt damage could occur, or in locations subject to corrosive gas such as sulphuric gas from hot springs. Otherwise, corrosion could cause the projector to fall. It could also cause the projector to malfunction.

Attention

• If you are using the projector at altitudes above 1,500 m, set the High Altitude Mode setting to On in the projector's Installation menu to ensure the projector's

internal temperature is regulated properly.

• Try not to setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Set Projection to Front/Upside Down or Front.

Attention

The interactive features are operated using infrared communication. Note the following points when installing the projector.

• Do not install the projector tilted at an angle of 3˚ or more. The interactive features may not operate correctly.

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

• Do not install the projector where it could be subjected to direct sunlight through a window. This could cause the interactive features to malfunction.

• Install the projector so that the interactive pen receiver is not too close to fluorescent lights. If the surrounding area is too bright, the interactive features may not operate correctly.

• If there is any dust stuck to the interactive pen receiver, it could interfere with infrared communication and the interactive features may not operate correctly. Clean the receiver if it is dirty.

• Do not put paint or any stickers on the cover of the interactive pen receiver.

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

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

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

• When using the interactive features in the same room as multiple projectors, interactive pen operations may become unstable. In this case, connect the optional remote control cable set to the projectors, and change Sync of Projectors to Wired in the projector's Pen/Touch menu.
