*1 When the standby mode is set to eco, network functions such as power on over the LAN network will not operate, and the serial output termi-
nal cannot be used. Also, only certain commands can be received for external control using the serial terminal.
*2 Measurement, measuring conditions, and method of notation all comply with ISO 21118 international standards.
*3 WUXGA resolution is supported only when the signals are compliant with VESA CVT-RB (Coordinated Video Timing-Reduced Blanking).
*4 With legs at shortest position.
*5 Protruding parts not included.
*6 The operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) when the fan control is set to High Altitude mode (for altitudes from 1,400 m to
2,700 m (4,593 ft to 8,858 ft) above sea level). Also, if the ambient temperature exceeds 40°C (104°F) (35°C (95°F) in High Altitude mode) when
the projector is being used with Lamp Select set to Dual and Lamp Power set to High, the light output may be reduced approximately 20% to
protect the projector.
*7 Operation range differs depending on environments.

Calculation of the projection distance

For a screen size different from the above, use the equation below to calculate the projection distance.

Aspect ratio 4:3

ET-DLE080 minimum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0170 - 0.0471

maximum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0211 - 0.0442

ET-DLE150 minimum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0280 - 0.0540

maximum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0403 - 0.0498

Supplied lens minimum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0370 - 0.0746
maximum L (m) = (diagonal screen size in inches) × 0.0517 - 0.0725

The signals that can be input to this projector are shown in the table below. Horizontal scanning fre-
quencies of 15 kHz to 91 kHz, vertical scanning frequencies of 50 Hz to 85 Hz, and a dot clock of
150 MHz maximum can be input.
NOTE: The native resolution of this projector is 1,024 × 768 pixels. If the display resolution of the input signal is different from the
native resolution, image compression or expansion will be used to convert the input signal to a level within the native resolution.

CAUTION
• It may not be possible to send or receive commands for about 10 to 60 seconds when the lamp is first turned on. If this
occurs, wait for 60 seconds, then try sending or receiving again.
• When sending multiple commands, be sure to wait for at least 0.5 second after receiving a response from the projector before
sending the next command.
• Additional time is sometimes required for response due to processing inside the projector. Set the time-out period for com-
mand response to 10 seconds or more.
• When using two or more units:
1) Set different IDs for each unit.
2) Designate only one unit as RESPONSE (ID ALL) ON and the rest as RESPONSE (ID ALL) OFF.
3) Each group should have only one RESPONSE (ID GROUP) ON and the rest should be RESPONSE (ID GROUP) OFF.

Notes on projector placement and operation

The projector uses a high-wattage lamp that becomes very hot during operation. Please observe the
following precautions.

1. Never place objects on top of the projector.

2. Make sure there is an unobstructed space of 500 mm (19-11/16˝) or more around the projector’s
exhaust openings.
3. Do not stack projector units directly on top of one another for the purpose of multiple (stacked)
projection. When stacking projector units, be sure to provide the amount of space indicated below
between them. These space requirements also apply to installations where only one projector unit
is operating at one time and the other unit is used as a backup.
4. Make sure that nothing blocks the projector’s air intake and exhaust openings. Also, install the pro-
jector so that cool or hot air from other air conditioning equipment does not flow directly toward
the projector’s air intake or exhaust openings.
5. Do not install the projector in an enclosed space. If it is necessary to install it in an enclosed
space, add a separate ventilation system. If ventilation is insufficient, hot air will accumulate at the
intake opening. This may cause the projector’s protective circuit to interrupt projector operation.
6. If the projector is installed in an enclosed space, ensure that the projector’s intake and exhaust
openings are not blocked. Take particular care to ensure that hot air from the exhaust openings is
not sucked into the intake openings.
7. When installing the projector in any manner other than floor mounting with the adjuster legs, use
the five threaded ceiling mount holes (screw diameter: M6, projector interior thread length: 12 mm)
to secure the projector.

Operating the projector continuously

1. If the projector is to be operated continuously for 24 hours, use the dual-lamp optical system's alternat-
ing lamp operation (lamp relay) function. Continuously operating the projector for 24 hours in the dual-
lamp mode is not recommended. Allow a minimum of two hours per day of non-operation time for each
lamp if the projector is to be operated continuously for more than 22 hours.
2. The lamp replacement cycle duration becomes shorter if the projector is operated repeatedly for short
periods.
