Maintenance
This chapter provides information on maintenance procedures to ensure the best level of performance from the projector for a long time to come.
You should clean the projector if it becomes dirty or if the quality of
projected images starts to deteriorate.
Caution
Turn off the projector's power before cleaning. Otherwise, it could cause an
electric shock.
Cleaning the Projector's Surface
Clean the projector's surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth.
If the projector is particularly dirty, moisten the cloth with water containing
a small amount of neutral detergent, and then firmly wring the cloth dry
before using it to wipe the projector's surface.
Attention
Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner to clean the
projector's surface. The quality of the case may change or become discolored.
Cleaning the Lens
Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses to gently wipe the
lens.
Warning
Do not use sprays that contain flammable gas to remove dust and lint from the
lens. The projector may catch fire due to the high internal temperature of the
lamp.
Attention
Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to shocks, as it
can easily become damaged.
Cleaning the Air Filter
Clean the air filter and the air intake vent when the following message is
displayed.
"The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent,
and clean or replace the air filter."
Attention
•If dust collects on the air filter, it can cause the internal temperature of the
projector to rise, and this can lead to problems with operation and shorten
the optical engine's service life. Clean the air filter immediately when the
message is displayed.
•Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.
Cleaning
130
a
•If a message is frequently displayed, even after cleaning, it is time to
replace the air filter. Replace it with a new air filter.
s "Replacing the Air Filter" p.136
•It is recommended that you clean these parts at least once every
three months. Clean them more often than this if using the projector
in a particularly dusty environment.
Cleaning
131
This section explains how to replace the lamp and the air filter.
Replacing the Lamp
Lamp replacement period
It is time to replace the lamp when:
•The following message is displayed.
"Time to replace the lamp. Please contact your Epson projector reseller or
visit www.epson.com to purchase."
The message is displayed for 30 seconds.
•The lamp indicator flashes orange.
•The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
Replacing Consumables
132
Attention
•The lamp replacement message is set to appear after the following time
periods in order to maintain the initial brightness and quality of the projected
images.
ForEB-1965/EB-1964/EB-1955/EB-1954/EB-1945W
When using Power Consumption continually at Normal: About 2400 hours

For EB-1935
When using Power Consumption continually at Normal: About 3400 hours
When usingPower Consumption continually atECO: About 4900 hours
sSettings - Power Consumptionp.94
•If you continue to use the lamp after the replacement period has passed, the
possibility that the lamp may explode increases. When the lamp replacement
message appears, replace the lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if
it is still working.
•Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning the
power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.
•Depending on the characteristics of the lamp and the way it has been used,
the lamp may become darker or stop working before the lamp warning
message appears. You should always have a spare lamp unit ready in case it is
needed.
How to replace the lamp
The lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a
ceiling.
Warning
•When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a
possibility that the lamp may be broken. If replacing the lamp of a projector
which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always assume that the
lamp is cracked, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not
underneath it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Be careful when removing the
lamp cover as shards of glass may fall out and could cause an injury. If any
shards of glass get into your eyes or mouth, contact your local physician
immediately.
•Never disassemble or remodel the lamp. If a modified or disassembled lamp
is installed in the projector and used, it could cause a fire, electric shock, or
an accident.
Caution
Wait until the lamp has cooled down sufficiently before removing the lamp
cover. If the lamp is still hot, burns or other injuries may result. It takes about
one hour after the power has been turned off for the lamp to be cool enough.
a
After you turn off the projector's power and the confirmation
buzzer beeps twice, disconnect the power cord.
b
Wait until the lamp has sufficiently cooled down, and then remove
the lamp cover at the top of the projector.
Loosen the Lamp cover fixing screw with the screwdriver supplied
with the new lamp unit or a cross-head screwdriver. Then slide the
lamp cover straight forward and lift it to remove.

This section briefly explains the difficult terms that are not explained in the text of this guide. For details, refer to other commercially available publications.
Ad hoc mode
A method of wireless LAN connection that communicates with wireless LAN clients without using an access point.
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 have implemented this protocol technology, and have provided a setting to enable the protocol function (ON).
See the AMX Web site for more details.
URL http://www.amx.com/
Aspect Ratio
The ratio between an image's length and its height. Screens with a horizontal:vertical ratio of 16:9, such as HDTV screens, are known as wide screens.
SDTV and general computer displays have an aspect ratio of 4:3.
Component Video
A method that separates the video signal into a luminance component (Y), and a blue minus luminance (Cb or Pb) and a red minus luminance (Cr or
Pr).
Composite video
A method that combines the video signal into a luminance component and a color component for transmission down a single cable.
Contrast
The relative brightness of the light and dark areas of an image can be increased or decreased to make text and graphics stand out more clearly, or to
make them appear softer. Adjusting this particular property of an image is called contrast adjustment.
DHCP
An abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, this protocol automatically assigns an IP address
g
to equipment connected to a network.
DICOM
An acronym for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. An international standard that defines image standards and a communications
protocol for medical images.
Gateway Address
This is a server (router) for communicating across a network (subnet) divided according to subnet mask
g
.
HDCP
HDCP is an abbreviation for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. It is used to prevent illegal copying and protect copyrights by encrypting
digital signals sent over DVI and HDMI ports. Because the HDMI port and DisplayPort on this projector supports HDCP, it can project digital images
protected by HDCP technology. However, the projector may not be able to project images protected with updated or revised versions of HDCP
encryption.
HDTV
An abbreviation for High-Definition Television that refers to high-definition systems which satisfy the following conditions.
•Vertical resolution of 720p or 1080i or greater (p =
Progressive
g
, i = Interlace
g
)
•Screen
aspect ratio
g
of 16:9
Infrastructure mode
A method for wireless LAN connection in which devices communicate through access points.
Interlace
Transmits information needed to create one screen by sending every other line, starting from the top of the image and working down to the bottom.
Images are more likely to flicker because one frame is displayed every other line.
IP Address
A number to identify a computer connected to a network.
Progressive
Projects information to create one screen at a time, displaying the image for one frame. Even though the number of scan lines is the same, the amount
of flicker in images decreases because the volume of information has doubled compared with an interlace system.
Glossary
151
Refresh Rate
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).
SDTV
An abbreviation for Standard Definition Television that refers to standard television systems which do not satisfy the conditions for HDTV
g
High-
Definition Television.
SNMP
An abbreviation for Simple Network Management Protocol, which is the protocol for monitoring and controlling devices such as routers and
computers connected to a TCP/IP network.
sRGB
An international standard for color intervals that was formulated so that colors that are reproduced by video equipment can be handled easily by
computer operating systems (OS) and the Internet. If the connected source has an sRGB mode, set both the projector and the connected signal source
to sRGB.
Subnet Mask
This is a numerical value that defines the number of bits used for the network address on a divided network (subnet) from the IP address.
SVGA
A screen size standard with a resolution of 800 (horizontal) x 600 (vertical) dots.
SXGA
A screen size standard with a resolution of 1,280 (horizontal) x 1,024 (vertical) dots.
Sync.
The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images are not of
a good quality. The process of matching the phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and the troughs in the signal) is called
Synchronization. If the signals are not synchronized, flickering, blurriness, and horizontal interference occur.
Tracking
The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not match this frequency, the resulting images are not of
a good quality. The process of matching the frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called Tracking. If Tracking is not carried
out correctly, wide vertical stripes appear in the signal.
Trap IP Address
This is the IP address
g
for the destination computer used for error notification in SNMP.
VGA
A screen size standard with a resolution of 640 (horizontal) x 480 (vertical) dots.
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
Wi-Fi Protected Setup has been devised by the Wi-Fi Alliance as a means of easily setting up and securing a wireless LAN.
XGA
A screen size standard with a resolution of 1,024 (horizontal) x 768 (vertical) dots.
