Computer Video Port Pin Assignments
The Computer 2/Component Video port is a female video 
RGB, 15-pin micro-D-style connector. Here are the pin 
assignments: ELP Link
If you want to be able to control the projector’s settings from a 
computer, you can install the ELP Link program. You can 
download this program, plus its User’s Guide, from EPSON’s 
web site at support.epson.com. You’ll also need a serial or USB 
cable to connect the projector to the computer.
Positioning the Projector
Follow these guidelines to get the best results when projecting:
❏Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, between 
2.85 and 41 feet from the screen.
❏Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and 
under the projector.
❏Make sure the projector is within 10 feet of a grounded 
electrical outlet or extension cord and within 5 feet of the 
image source.
❏Face the projector squarely toward the screen. 
Note: It’s easier to position the projector when the screen is directly 
in front of the room. However, if you need to place it off-center, you 
can use the keystone correction feature to maintain a square image. 
If you place the projector below the level of the screen, you’ll 
have to tilt it up by extending the foot as shown. Tilting the 
projector upward causes the image to lose its square shape, but 
you can correct the distortion by pressing the 
Keystone button 
as described on page 6. 
If you place the projector level with the bottom of the screen, 
the image will be square and you won’t have to adjust it. If you 
place the projector higher than the bottom of the screen, the 
image will still be square, but you won’t be able to fill the whole 
screen with the image.

							EPSON PowerLite 600p/811p/820p Projectors
4 - EPSON PowerLite 600p/811p/820p Projectors 4/02 The projector can be installed for four different viewing setups: 
front projection, ceiling mounting, rear projection onto a semi-
transparent screen, or rear ceiling projection, as shown: 
To project from overhead, you’ll need to select 
Ceiling in the 
projector’s Advanced menu. To project from the rear, select 
Rear Proj. 
If you’re ceiling-mounting the projector and you place it above 
screen level, you’ll have to tilt it down to position the image 
on-screen. This causes the image to lose its square shape. You 
can then correct the distortion by using the 
V Keystone 
function in the projector’s menu system or by using the 
Keystone buttons on the projector’s control panel.
Image Size and Projection Distance
Use the table below to estimate how far to place the projector 
from the screen. Since the size of the image can be changed by 
rotating the zoom ring, a range of distance is given for each 
screen size. Note that if you tilt the projector upward by extending the foot 
or use electronic keystone correction, your image size may vary.
Displaying an Image
Once the projector is connected to your computer or video 
source and plugged in, press the red 
Power button on top of the 
projector to turn it on. The 
 
Ppower light flashes green as the 
projector warms up, and the projection lamp comes on in about 
30 seconds. The power light stays green, and you may see a blue 
screen with the message 
No Signal displayed. This is normal. 
Do one of the following:
❏Turn on or restart your computer. In a few moments, you 
should see your computer display projected.

New Hardware Wizard message about USB audio, click 
Next and follow the instructions on the screen (Windows® 
only).
❏If you’re projecting a video, press the 
Play button on your 
video source.
If a projected image fails to appear, see the next section for help. 
What To Do If You See a Blank Screen
If you see a blank screen or a blue screen with the message 
No Signal after turning on your computer or video source, do 
one of the following:
❏Make sure the cables are connected correctly, as described in 
the User’s Guide.
❏Make sure the power light is green and not flashing and the 
lens cover is off. 
❏Try restarting your computer.
❏If you’ve connected more than one computer and/or video 
source, you may need to press the 
Computer/YCbCr or 
Video button on top of the projector to select the correct 
source. Allow a few seconds for the projector to sync up after 
pressing the button.

Cleaning the Projector and Replacing 
Parts
Warning: Before you clean any part of the projector, turn it off and 
unplug the power cord. Never open any cover on the projector, 
except the lamp and filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages in 
the projector can injure you severely. Do not try to service this 
product yourself, except as specifically explained in this Product 
Information Guide. Refer all other servicing to qualified service 
personnel.
Cleaning the Lens
Clean the lens whenever you notice dirt or dust on the surface.
❏Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.
❏To remove dirt or smears on the lens, use lens cleaning 
paper. If necessary, moisten a soft cloth with an alcohol-
based cleaner and gently wipe the lens surface.
Cleaning the Projector Case
Before you clean the projector case, turn off the projector and 
unplug the power cord. 
❏To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, dry, lint-
free cloth. 
❏To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with

❏Do not use wax, alcohol, benzene, thinner, or other chemical 
detergents. These can damage the case.Cleaning or Replacing the Air Filter
Clean the air filter at the bottom of the projector after every 100 
hours of use. If it is not cleaned periodically, it can become 
clogged with dust, preventing proper ventilation. This can cause 
overheating and damage the projector.
Follow these steps:
1. Turn off the projector, allow it to cool down, and unplug the 
power cord.
2. Turn the projector on its side so that the handle is on top 
and you can access the filter easily.
3. To clean the filter, EPSON 
recommends using a small 
vacuum cleaner designed for 
computers and other office 
equipment. If you don’t have 
one, gently clean the filter 
using a very soft brush (such as 
an artist’s camel-hair brush).
If the dirt is difficult to 
remove or the filter is broken, 
replace it. Contact your dealer 
or call EPSON at (800) 873-7766 in the United States to 
obtain a new one. In Canada, please call (800) 463-7766 for 
dealer referral.
Note: When you get a replacement lamp for your projector, a 
new air filter is included. You should replace the filter when 
you replace the lamp.
4. If you need to replace the filter, make sure the projector is on 
its side as shown (not turned upside down) to prevent dust 
from falling inside. Then press the arrow tab to remove the 
filter.
5. To install the new filter, first insert the tabs, then press on 
the latch until it clicks in place.

Warning: Be extremely careful when removing the lamp module. 
In the unlikely event that the bulb has ruptured, small glass 
fragments may be present and should be removed with caution. If 
your projector is mounted on the ceiling, you should unmount it 
before accessing the lamp compartment. This will make it easier for 
you to replace the lamp and minimize the chance of any small glass 
fragments dropping from the projector.

1. Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
2. Allow the projector to cool down for at least half an hour 
(if it has been on).

cover. Then lift it up and remove it.

lamp in place. (You can’t remove these screws.)5. Grasp the lamp as shown, and pull the lamp straight out.
Caution: Do not touch the glass portion of the lamp assembly.
