Formula for calculating the projection distance per projection lens
To use a projected image size not listed in this manual, check the projected image size SD (m) and use the 
respective formula to calculate projection distance.
The unit of all the formulae is m. (Values obtained by the following calculation formulae contain a slight error.)
When calculating a projection distance using image size designation (value in inches), multiply the value in inches 
by 0.0254 and substitute it into SD in the formula for calculating the p\
rojection distance.For PT

Adjusting adjustable feet
Install the projector on a flat surface so that the front of the projector is parallel to the screen surface and the 
projection screen is rectangular.
If the screen is tilted downward, the projection screen can be adjusted \
to be rectangular by adjusting the front 
adjustable feet. The adjustable feet can also be used to adjust the projector to be level\
 when it is tilted in the 
horizontal direction.
Adjustable feet can be extended by turning them as shown in the figure.  Turning them in the opposite direction will 
return them to the original position.
Adjustable range
Adjustable feet: Approx. 12 mm (15/32) each
Attention
 f Be careful not to block the intake/exhaust ports with your hands or any objects when adjusting the adjustable feet while the light source is 
on. (

Move the lens position to the home position before replacing or removing the projection lens. (x   page   66)
Attention
 f Replace the projection lens after turning of f the power of the projector. fDo not touch the electric contacts of the projection lens. Dust or dirt \
may cause poor contact. fDo not touch the surface of the projection lens with your bare hands. fBefore attaching the projection lens, remove the lens cover attached to \
the projection lens.
Note
 fThe precautions for handling the lens are dif ferent for the Fixed-focus Lens (Model No.: ET- D75LE90). For details, refer to the Operating 
Instructions of ET- D75LE90.

Connecting
Before connecting
 fBefore connecting, carefully read the operating instructions for the external device to be connected.
 fT

urn off the power of all devices before connecting cables.
 fT

ake note of the following points before connecting the cables. Failure t\
o do so may result in malfunctions.
 g When connecting a cable to a device connected to the projector or the pr\
ojector itself, touch any nearby 
metallic objects to eliminate static electricity from your body before p\
erforming work.
 gDo not use unnecessarily long cables to connect a device to the projecto\
r or to the projector body

. The longer 
the cable, the more susceptible to noise it becomes. Since using a cable\
 while it is wound makes it act like an 
antenna, it is more susceptible to noise.
 g When connecting cables, connect GND first, then insert the connecting terminal of the connecting device in a 
straight manner

.
 fAcquire any connection cable necessary to connect the external device to the system that is neither supplied 
with the device nor available as an option.
 fIf video signals from video equipment contain too much jitter

, the images on the screen may wobble. In this 
case, a time base corrector (TBC) must be connected.
 f The projector accepts video signals, 

Y/C signals, YC
BCR/YPBPR signals, analog RGB signals (synchronization 
signals are TTL level), and digital signals.
 f Some computer models are not compatible with the projector

.
 f Use a cable compensator when you connect devices to the projector using \
long cables. Otherwise the image 
may not display properly

.
 f Refer to “List of compatible signals” ( x

 
page
 
206) for the types of video signals that can be used with the 
projector.
