Preparing the Projector This chapter explains how to install the projector and connect projection sources.
Installing the Projector 15 Installation Methods Warning The projector supports the following four different projection methods. Install the projector according to the conditions of the installation location. • Project images from in front of the screen. (Front projection) • Project images from behind a translucent screen. (Rear projection) • A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount).
Installing the Projector • 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. 16 a When you correct keystone distortion, the projected image may be reduced. • Place the projector on a level surface. If the projector is tilted the projected image is also tilted.
Connecting Equipment 17 The port name, location, and connector orientation differ depending on the source being connected. Connecting Image Sources To project images from DVD players or game consoles and so on, connect to the projector using one of the following methods. A When using the supplied component adapter and the optional component video cable s "Optional Accessories" p.88 Connect the component output port on the image source to the projector's Computer input port.
Connecting Equipment Attention • Power off the equipment before connecting. Connecting while it is powered on may cause malfunctions to occur. • When connecting, check the cable's connector shape with the shape of the port. Inserting a connector with a different orientation or shape by force may cause malfunctions to occur or may damage the equipment.
Connecting Equipment a 19 • Use an HDMI cable that conforms to the HDMI standard. • Depending on the equipment you are connecting to, the connecter shape may be specific to that equipment. In such a case, use the cable that was supplied with the equipment or is available as an optional accessory for that equipment. • The cable used to connect to the projector will vary according to the video signal output from the video equipment. Some video equipment can output several different types of video signals.
Connecting Equipment a 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.
Connecting Equipment 21 Connecting USB Devices You can connect devices such as USB memory, the optional Document Camera, and USB compatible hard disks and digital cameras. Using the USB cable supplied with the USB device, connect the USB device to the USB(TypeA) port on the projector. When the USB device is connected, you can project image files on the USB memory or digital camera using Slideshow. s "Slideshow examples" p.
Connecting Equipment 22 Removing USB devices After finishing projecting, remove USB devices from the projector. For devices such as digital cameras or hard disks, turn off the device and then remove it from the projector.
