This chapter explains the projector's features and the part names.
Projector Features
Centered lens
The lens is positioned in the center of the projector so it is well balanced and is easy to mount on a ceiling. This also makes it easy to line up the screen and the projector.
Equipped with electric lens shift, zoom and focus functions
The lens shift function allows you to adjust the position of the projected image along the horizontal and vertical axes which opens up a wide variety of installation locations. s p.161
The lens shift, zoom, and focus functions can be operated with a remote control so operation is easy even if the projector is mounted on the ceiling.
Variety of optional lenses available
9
Various angles of projection
The projector can be pointed up, down, or angled to project images on the ceiling or floor, in addition to normal horizontal projection. This makes it an effective communication tool that lets you express your ideas with great impact. s p.152
A design that harmonizes with the surrounding environment, and makes the installation easy
The projector's sophisticated design has a cable cover in which cables are hidden for a clean exterior appearance.
The bar type handles are designed to make moving and installing the projector easy so it can be handled safely. The ceiling mount is attached to these handles when you mount the projector on the ceiling. The projector does not need to be turned upside down so installation is easy. The initial settings can be easily set as you look at the screen because the control panel is located on the back of the projector.
Easy maintenance
You can select the best lens according to the projection distance and purpose. The bayonet type lenses allow you to simply and easily exchange and install the optional lenses. s p.188, p.197
You can replace the lamp by opening a cover and pulling it straight out of the back of the projector without using a screwdriver.
There is only one air filter so cleaning and replacement are easy. The lamp and air filter can be safely replaced even when mounted on the ceiling because their covers do not fall off even if you release them.
Projector Features |
10 |
Dual lamps to reduce risk of shutdown
The projector is equipped with two lamps. Even if one of the lamps breaks, you can continue projecting with the other lamp and avoid disrupting important presentations.
Operating temperature of 32–122°F (0–50°C)
Special coolant and fan in cooling system work against a high temperature environment during operation and improve reliability in normal use.
Depending on projector settings and environmental conditions, you can use this projector in a place up to 122°F (50°C).
Projector Features
Equipped with a high-resolution WUXGA panel (PowerLite Pro Z8450WUNL/Z8455WUNL only)
You can project a large amount of information on the screen. Viewers can see the information at a glance without having to scroll or switch screens.
The frame interpolation feature helps reduce motion blur or jumpiness in fast moving video, such as sports and action movies, so that it plays more smoothly.
Project two images simultaneously (Split Screen)
You can simultaneously project the images from two video sources next to each other. For example, you can hold a video conference while projecting presentation materials. s p.35
11
Clearly reproduce medical images
"DICOM SIM" is a color mode used to project medical images such as X-ray photographs. This mode produces image quality that approaches the DICOMgstandard.
(The projector is not a medical device and cannot be used for medical diagnosis.) s p.34
Epson Cinema Filter supports the color gamut for digital cinema.
Select Theatre or sRGB in Color Mode to use Epson Cinema Filter. When color mode is set to Theatre, 100% reproduction of the color gamut used for digital cinema is possible. As a result, this reproduces colors that are full and deep.
Precise color adjustments
As well as Color Mode, you can adjust the image's absolute color temperature and the strength of each RGB color. Also, you can adjust the hue, saturation, and brightness of R,G,B,C,M, and Y.
The image settings can be saved in memory and recalled when needed. If you use the projector in several places, you can easily use the previous settings again.
Seamlessly project multiple images together
When projecting on one screen from multiple projectors, color tone differences between each projected image can be adjusted, using Multi-screen and Edge Blending, to create a seamless screen. s p.175

Password Protect to restrict and manage users
By setting a password you can restrict who can use the projector. s p.45
Control Panel Lock restricts button operation on the control panel
You can use this to prevent people changing projector settings without permission at events, in schools, and so on. s p.47
Equipped with various theft-deterrent devices
The projector is equipped with the following types of theft-deterrent security devices. s p.50
•Security slot
•Security cable installation point
Direct power On/Off
In places where power is managed centrally, such as in a conference room, the projector can be set to power on and off automatically when the power source to which the projector is connected is switched on or off.
No cool down delay
After turning the projector's power off, you can disconnect the projector's power cable without having to wait for the projector to cool down.
Schedule
You can schedule events to turn the projector power on/off and switch the input source. Registered events are executed automatically at the specified time and date every week. s "Setting Schedule" p.185
Various monitoring and control options
A variety of monitoring and control options are supported, such as the Epson EasyMP Monitor software. This software allows you to use the projector according to your system environment. s "Monitoring and Controls" p.127
Simultaneously project four images for dynamic conferences
By using the included EasyMP Multi PC Projection software, you can select up to 4 images from up to 32 computers that are connected to the network, and divide the projector's screen to show them together. Anyone can freely and easily project images from connected computers to make conferences and meetings more lively. See your EasyMP Multi PC Projection Operation Guide for more information.
Transferring images over the network
The included EasyMP Network Projection software can be used to connect to network computers and transfer video and movies. A variety of transfer functions are available to increase presentation possibilities. See your
EasyMP Multi PC Projection Operation Guide for more information.
* This unit cannot transfer audio.

Installing the batteries
The remote control uses the two AA batteries that came with the projector.
Caution
Make sure you read the Safety Instructions before handling the batteries. s p.211
Procedure
A Remove the battery cover.
While pushing the battery compartment cover catch, lift the cover up.
B Insert the batteries in the correct direction.
Warning
Check the positions of the (+) and (-) marks inside the battery holder to ensure the batteries are inserted the correct way.
C Replace the battery cover.
Press until it clicks into place.
If delays in the responsiveness of the remote control occur or if it does not operate after it has been used for some time, it probably means that the batteries are becoming flat. When this happens, replace them with new batteries. Have two AA size alkaline batteries ready. Do not use other batteries except for AA size alkaline batteries.

This chapter explains useful tips for giving presentations, and the security functions.
Changing the Projected Image
You can change the projected image in the following two ways.
•Changing by Source Search
The projector automatically detects signals being input from connected equipment, and the image being input from the input port is projected.
•Changing directly to the target image
You can use the remote control buttons to change to the target input port.
25
When the [Search] or [Source Search] button is pressed, a search is made for input ports to which video signals are being input in the following order. (Input ports where no image signal is being input are skipped.)
You can project the target images quickly by pressing the [Search] or [Source Search] button because it will switch only to images from input ports to which image signals are being input.
Procedure
When your video equipment is connected, start playback before beginning this operation. When two or more pieces of equipment are connected, press the [Search] or [Source Search] button until the target image is projected.
