External Camera Usage
You can use extended functions such as the Camera Assist function and

The extended functions reduce the time and effort needed to adjust the image.
When using the optional external camera, the following operations that are
normally required for general camera solutions become unnecessary:
• Preparation such as securing installation location and adjusting the angle of
view.
As the optional external camera is installed on the projector or the lens, a
tripod and installation space is unnecessary. There is also no need to adjust
the focus, angle, and exposure.
• Activation
Epson Projector Professional Tool software and Epson Web Control allow
you to use the extended functions.

You can easily and quickly create a bright projected image by overlapping the
images of multiple projectors using Simple Stacking.
•Point Correction: Divides the projected image into a grid and corrects the
distortion in 0.5 pixel increments by moving the selected point of
intersection in any direction.
•Start Auto Adjustment: You can automatically adjust the projected image
using the camera assist functions. The projector for which you perform this
feature becomes a master projector, and the adjustment is performed based
on the projector's image position and shape.
a• Connect two projectors using a LAN cable.
• Make sure you do the following before adjusting:
• Set the DHCP setting to On in the projector's Network menu for
two projectors.
• Adjust the image position, shape, and focus on the master
projector. If you adjust the image shape of the master projector,
select Point Correction and select Quick Corner to correct the
shape.
