Epson Interactive Projector user guide

Epson Interactive Projectors can be used in rooms with and without a connected audiovisual (AV) system. To ensure the system works correctly, it's important to identify which AV system is available in your room and use the correct panel to start the system.

Rooms with an AV touch panel and Epson button panel

Use the room's AV touch panel to power on the room's AV system, then select a source input. The interactive projector will turn on automatically.

Rooms with an AMX button panel and Epson button panel

1. On the AMX button panel, select the 'Off On' button and then select a source input.
   • If there is no 'Off On' button on your AMX button panel, select your source input and the system will power on automatically. All buttons on the panel will flash blue while the system is warming up.
2. The Interactive Projector will turn on automatically. You don't need to press the power button on the Epson button panel, as the AV system is connected to the projector.

Rooms with an Epson button panel only

Select the blue power button on the Epson button panel to turn the projector on.

1. To use 'Whiteboard Mode', select the 'Whiteboard' button on the Epson button panel. The display will turn into an interactive whiteboard.
2. Choose an interactive marker from the storage container on the wall and click the button on the side of the marker to turn it on.
3. Press the marker to the display to begin using the interactive functions.

Once you begin writing on your display, an onscreen toolbar will appear. These toolbar options can be used to control most of the projector's interactive functions:
