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 projector Throw Distance Calculator at www.epson.com/support
(U.S.) or www.epson.ca/support (Canada).

Projector Connections
You can connect the projector to a variety of computer, video, and audio sources to display
presentations, movies, or other images, with or without sound.
Connect any type of computer that has a USB port, standard video output (monitor) port, or HDMI port.
For video projection, connect devices such as DVD players, gaming consoles, digital cameras, and
camera phones with compatible video output ports.
If your presentation or video includes sound, you can connect audio input cables, if necessary.
For slide shows without a computer, you can connect USB devices (such as a flash drive or camera)
or an optional EPSON document camera.
Caution: If you will use the projector at altitudes above 4921 feet (1500 m), turn on High Altitude Mode
to ensure the projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.
