Glossary 162 Glossary This section explains easily terms that are used with the projector and difficult terms that are not explained in the text of this guide. For details, refer to other commercially available publications. AMX Device Discovery AMX Device Discovery is a technology developed by AMX to facilitate AMX control systems for easy operation of the target equipment. Epson has implemented this protocol technology, and has provided a setting to enable the protocol function (ON).
Glossary 163 VGA A type of video signal with a resolution of 640 (horizontal) ^ 480 (vertical) dots that is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. XGA A type of video signal with a resolution of 1,024 (horizontal) ^ 768 (vertical) dots that is used by IBM PC/AT-compatible computers. Aspect Ratio The ratio between an image's length and its height. HDTV images have an aspect ratio of 16:9 and appear elongated. The aspect ratio for standard images is 4:3.
Glossary Refresh Rate 164 The light-emitting element of a display maintains the same luminosity and color for an extremely short time. Because of this, the image must be scanned many times per second to refresh the light-emitting element. The number of refresh operations per second is called the Refresh Rate and is expressed in hertz (Hz).

General Notes • Do not carry the projector by yourself. Two people should use the handles to carry the projector when unpacking or moving it. • Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table. When projecting images vertically, install the projector correctly and appropriately to prevent it from turning over and falling. • Do not operate the projector on its side, while tilted to one side, or upside down.
General Notes • Do not operate the projector in a closed-in cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided. • You may need to clean the air filter and intake vent. A clogged air filter or vent can block ventilation needed to cool the projector. • Do not use or store the projector outdoors for an extended length of time. • Do not use the projector outside the required temperature range (s p.156). Doing so may cause an unstable display and could lead to projector damage.
General Notes • Do not touch the lens with bare hands. • Always attach the lens cover to the lens when not using the projector, to prevent the lens from becoming dirty or damaged. • Never try to remove the lamp immediately after use because it will be extremely hot. Before removing the lamp, turn off the power and wait at least an hour to allow the lamp to cool completely. • Do not place the source of an open flame, such as a lit candle, on or near the projector. • Do not modify the power cord.
