Projector Orientation
An image can be projected from in front or behind a screen, and the
projector can be installed on the ceiling*.
Ceiling Front Projection
Use [Projector Options] →[Setup] →[Page 1] →[Orientation] to select
Ceiling Front. (See page E-38.)
Ceiling Rear Projection
Use [Projector Options] →[Setup] →[Page 1] →[Orientation] to select
Ceiling Rear. (See page E-38.)
Desktop Rear Projection
Use [Projector Options] →[Setup] →[Page 1] →[Orientation] to select
Desktop Rear. (See page E-38.)
WARNING
•Installing your projector on the ceiling must be done by a qualified
technician. Contact your DIGITAL PROJECTION dealer for more
information.
*Do not attempt to install the projector yourself.
•Only use your projector on a solid, level surface. If the projector falls
to the ground, you can be injured and the projector severely dam-
aged.
•Do not use the projector where temperatures vary greatly. The pro-
jector must be used at temperatures between 40°F (5°C) and 95°F
(35°C).
•Do not expose the projector to moisture, dust, or smoke. This will
harm the screen image.
•Ensure that you have adequate ventilation around your projector so
heat can dissipate. Do not cover the vents on the projector.

When Used with One Switcher (ISS-6020/ISS-6020G)
Up to 10 input signals can be accepted when the projector is connected to one Switcher. Using the projector with the Switcher allows easy
adjustment and signal selection.
•Select [Menu] → [Projector Options] → [Switcher Control] → [SW1 Level]. See page E-39 for the information in detail.
•For more information on the Switcher, refer to the users manual accompanying the ISS-6020/ISS-6020G Switcher.
•All cables mentioned above are sold separately.
•The RGB2 terminal will not work with the Switcher Control function.
*When connecting with the VIDEO INPUT MODULE (6020-VID), set the VIDEO MODE select switch (S3001) to 8. The VIDEO MODE select
switch is located on the VIDEO INPUT MODULE (6020-VID).
NOTE: While in the Switcher Control mode, a video standard is selected at the projector.
If you set the VIDEO MODE select switch (S3001) to 8 with the QUAD DECODER installed in the Switcher ISS-6020, the image will not be displayed correctly.
In that case, first remove the QUAD DECODER from the Switcher ISS-6020.
For more details, contact your dealer.

Inputs)
Up to 100 inputs can be accepted using the ISS-6020 Switcher.
How to make connections:
1. Connect the REMOTE 1 terminal of the master Switcher to the RE-
MOTE 1 of the projector using the optional control cable (15p-15p/
CTL-6010).
2. Next connect the REMOTE 2 terminal of the master Switcher to the
REMOTE 1 terminal of the first slave Switcher using the same op-
tional control cable as mentioned above. Third, connect the REMOTE
2 terminal of the first slave to the REMOTE 1 of the second slave,
and the REMOTE 2 terminal of the second slave to the REMOTE 1
terminal of the third slave (— and the REMOTE 2 of the ninth slave to
the REMOTE 1 of the tenth slave). Connect all the Switchers with
optional control cables.

Operating Multiple Projectors with the Remote Control
You can operate multiple projectors with the same remote control in wireless operation.
To  do so:
1. Select [Menu] → [Projector Options] → [Setup] → [Page 5] → [Projector ID] and assign an ID number to each projector. See also page E-39.
2. On the remote control specify the ID number of the projector to be adjusted. Press and hold the CTL and press MENU (ADDRESS) button to
enter the ID number.
You can operate the projector assigned the same ID number as the remote control.
Projector ID= 01Projector ID= 02 Projector ID= 03
Remote Address = 03
You can daisy-chain multiple projectors and operate them separately with the same remote control in wired operation.
To  do so:
1. Use the remote control cable to connect the REMOTE 2 Output of one projector to the REMOTE 2 Input of the next projector until all the projectors are
connected. Only one remote control cable is supplied with each projector.
2. Specify a unique projector ID for each projector.
3. Specify the same remote address as the projector ID to be adjusted.
NOTE: Specifying None for projector ID allows you to operate multiple projectors concurrently. However, some projectors may not synchronize to the otherprojectors.
Projector ID= 01 Projector ID= 02 Projector ID= 03
Remote Address = 03

Using the RGB DIGITAL connectors
The Link mode function allows you to adjust or set multiple projectors using the RGB DIGITAL and OPTION connectors.
The DVI DIGITAL input accepts up to the SXGA (1280 x 1024 @75Hz) signal in Link mode.
NOTE: The Auto Adjust feature does not work for DVI digital signal. When DVI signal is selected and the image position is not corrected, adjust the horizontal andvertical position using the Position screen. See page E-33 for more details.
Connection for Double Stacking in Link Mode
DVI-D cable (supplied)
Connect source equipment to the master projector.
It is recommended that you use a commercially available distribution amplifier if you use signals other than VGA (640X480@60Hz) to SXGA
(1280X1024@75Hz) in Link mode.
