WARNING:
Do not look at or place your skin into the light emitted from the lens while the projector is being used.
Doing so can cause burns or loss of sight.

• Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens. Do not look at or place your hands directly into this light.

• Turn off the power when moving away from the projection lens or projector.
  Do not project an image with the lens cover attached.

• Doing so can cause fire.

CAUTION:
Before replacing the projection lens, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet.

• Unexpected projection of light may cause injury to eyes.

• Replacing the projection lens without removing the power plug may result in electric shock.
  Do not stand in front of the lens while the projector is being used.
  Doing so can cause damage and burns to clothing.

• Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens.
  Do not place objects in front of the lens while the projector is being used.
  Doing so can cause fire, damage to the object, or malfunction of the lens and projector.

• Strong light is emitted from the projector’s lens.
  Do not open the desiccant bag. Do not eat the contents.
  Inadvertently ingesting desiccant could be harmful.

• If the desiccant gets into your eyes or mouth, immediately rinse with plenty of water and seek medical attention.

• Keep desiccant out of the reach of children.

Hazard distance (IEC 62471-5:2015)
The distance from the projection lens surface, at which the emission reaches the Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) of risk group 2, is known as the hazard distance (HD) or safety distance. The area where the emission exceeds the Accessible Emission Limit of risk group 2 is called the hazard zone (HZ).
Within the hazard zone, never look into the light projected from the projector. The eyes may be damaged by direct irradiation even if you look at the light just for a moment. If you are outside the hazard zone, it is considered to be safe in all circumstances except deliberately staring into the light projected from the projector.

Risk group
The combination of the projector and the projection lens is categorized as risk group 2 when the hazard distance is 1 m (39-3/8″) or less. It s categorized as risk group 3 when the hazard distance exceeds 1 m (39-3/8″), and t willbe for professional use instead of consumer use.
In case of risk group 3, there is a possibility of damaging the eyes by direct irradiation when looking info the projection light from inside the hazard zone even for a moment.
In the case of risk group 2, safe use without damaging the eyes is possible in all circumstances except deliberately staring into the light projected from the projector.
“The risk group for the combination of the projection lens and a compatible projector is as follows.

Preparation

Before replacing the projection lens

Return the projection lens to the home position before replacing or removing it.
For details on how to return the lens to the home position, refer to the operating instructions of the projector.

• Make sure that the projector power supply is switched off before attaching or detaching the projection lens.
• After removing the projection lens, store it safely away from vibration or impacts.
• Do not touch the electric contact points of the projection lens with your fingers. Dust and dirt on the contacts may cause contact malfunctions, while static electricity may damage the unit.
• Do not touch the surface of the lens with bare hands. Finger prints and dirt on the surface of the lens will be magnified by the lens and lower the quality of the projected image. Place the supplied lens cover on the zoom lens when the projector is not in use.
• The lens may become damaged by hitting with a hard object or by wiping the front surface of the lens with excessive force. Handle with care.
• Use a clean, soft and dry cloth to wipe away dust and dirt from the projection lens.

Do not use fluffy cloths containing oil, water or dust for cleaning. The lens is easily damaged, so do not apply excessive pressure when wiping it.

Attaching the Lens

For details on removing or attaching the projection lens, refer to the operating instructions for the projector.
After attaching the projection lens to the projector, tighten the lens fixing screws (4 locations) attached to the projection lens to fix the projection lens in place.

• Tighten the lens fixing screws in diagonal sequence while supporting the barrel part of the projection lens with a hand.

Attention

• When tightening the lens fixing screws, use the supplied ball end hex screwdriver.
• Turn the projection lens counterclockwise and check that it does not detach.
• When attaching the projection lens, be sure to tighten the lens fixing screws while supporting the barrel part of the projection lens from below with a hand. If it is not supported with a hand, the tightening of the lens fixing screws may be inadequate.

Image peripheral focus adjustment function
When you change the size of the projected image, the focal balance between the center and peripheral areas of the screen may shift.
This shift in focal balance tends to increase proportionally with smaller throw ratios.
The ET-C1U100 is equipped with an image peripheral focus adjustment function to correct the shift in focal balance between the center and peripheral areas of the projected image.
For instructions on adjusting the peripheral focus, refer to “Projecting” in the operating instructions for the projector.

Projection relationships

The dimensional relationship between the screen and the projector is shown below.
Dimensional relationship diagram

Note

• This diagram assumes that the size and position of the projected image will be adjusted so that the image fills the entire screen.
• This illustration is not drawn to scale.

Dimension for L1 (approximate values)

Note

• The illustrations of projectors in this manual are for informational purposes only and do not represent a specific projector model. Configurations may vary with the model.

Attention

• To prevent obstruction of the intake and exhaust vents, install the projector with a clearance from walls and objects. For details about the required distance from surrounding walls and objects, refer to the operating instructions for your projector.
  If you are installing the projector in a sealed space, be sure to provide additional air conditioning equipment and ventilation equipment. Insufficient ventilation will result in an accumulation of heat and may activate the projector’s  protection circuit.

• Avoid setting up in places which are subject to sudden temperature changes, such as near an air conditioner or lighting equipment (studio lamps, etc.).

Dimensional relationship
For details on the projection distance (L), refer to “Projected image size and Projection distance” and “Projection distance formulas” in the Appendix.

Note

• For details on “Projected image size and Projection distance” for projector models other than PT-REQ12 / PT-REQ10 / PT-REQ80 / PT-REZ12/ PT-REZ10 / PT-REZ80, refer to “Setting up” in the operating instructions of the  projector.

Note

• When [GEOMETRY] is used, the focus of the entire screen may be lost as correction increases.

Lens shift ranges

Perform the lens position shift within the adjustment range.
Perform lens shift adjustment within the ranges shown in the following illustrations.
The focus may change when the lens position is shifted out of the adjustment range.
This is because the movement of the lens is restricted to protect the optical parts.
The following illustrations depict lens shift ranges for floor installations of the projector.
PT-REQ12/ PT-REQ10/ PT-REQ80 / PT-REZ12/ PT-REZ10 / PT-REZ80

Note

• The home position of the projector a point of origin position for the lens shift (i.e., vertical and horizontal positions of the lens) based on the results of lens calibration. Itis not the optical center position of the screen.
