Note the following precautions during lamp replacement or when a lamp has ruptured.
Failure to do so could result in an electric shock, personal injury or burns.
•Before replacing the lamp, always unplug the projector and wait at least an
hour.
•If the lamp ruptures, dust and gas (containing mercury vapor) may come out
of the exhaust vents. If this happens, immediately open the windows and
doors to provide ventilation to the room. Ruptured lamps may scatter shards
of glass inside the projector. Contact the qualified technician or Canon
Customer Support Center for cleaning and inspection of the projector interior
and lamp replacement.
•If you accidentally inhale gas from the lamp or get any pieces in your eyes or
mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
Note the following precautions when replacing lamps that stop working. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury.
•If illumination suddenly stops, either when you turn the projector on or after it
has been on for a while, the lamp may have ruptured. In this case, never
attempt to replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from a
qualified technician or the Canon Customer Support Center.
•With ceiling-mounted projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the
lamp cover, or during replacement. During replacement, make sure no one is

the settings may shorten the lamp life or damage the lamp.
•Do not install the projector facing the wrong direction. Install the projector so
that it is not tilted left or right by more than 10°. (P25)
•Do not block the air intake or exhaust vents. Blocking the vents may trap
heat inside the projector, which may shorten the useful life of optical
components or other parts and damage the projector.
•Install the projector leaving at least 50 cm (1.6') between air intake/exhaust
vents and walls. Failure to do so may trap heat inside the projector and
damage it.
•Do not place any objects on top of the projector that may change shape or
color due to heat.
•Do not install the projector in a location that is damp, or where there is a lot
of dust, oily smoke or tobacco smoke. Doing so could cause contamination
of optical components such as the lens and the mirror and may result in
deterioration of image quality.
•Do not install the projector near high-voltage electrical power lines or an
electrical power source.
•Clean the air filter regularly. (P166) Dust that accumulates inside over long
periods without cleaning may eventually damage the projector or affect
picture quality.

Before Installation
Precautions When Carrying/Shipping the
Projector
Precautions for Installation
Be sure to read “Safety Instructions” and “For Safe Use” (P7 – P21). Also
take the following precautions during installation.
■Do Not Use in the Following Environments
• Locations with excessive humidity, dust, oily smoke or tobacco smoke
Adhesion to the lens, mirrors or other optical parts may reduce image quality. In
addition, oil can degrade the plastic, which could result in a ceiling-mounted
projector falling from its mounting.
• Near high-voltage power lines or sources of electrical power
This may cause malfunction.
• On soft surfaces such as carpets or cushioned mats
This may cause a fire or damage the projector.
• Locations with excessive temperature or humidity
This may damage the projector. Acceptable ranges for operating and storage
temperature and humidity are as follows.
*Operating temperature and humidity applies to when the projector is projecting
or in standby mode.
Prepare the projector as described below before carrying it.
• Disconnect the cables connected to the projector. Carrying the
projector with the cables attached may cause an accident.
• Retract the adjustable feet before moving the projector. Leaving
the feet extended may cause damage.
• Do not strike the projector or
subject it to impact. Doing so may
cause a malfunction.
• Do not install the projector so that it
is inclined or standing vertically. The
projector may be damaged if it tips
over.
• Do not block the air intake or
exhaust vents of the cooling fan.
Blocking the vents may trap heat inside the projector, which
may shorten the useful life of the lamp or damage the projector.

Before Installation
Before Installation
■Do Not Touch the Lens with Bare Hands
Do not touch the lens with bare hands. Doing so may adversely affect picture
quality.
■Allow a 30 Min. Warm Up before Focus Adjustment (P58), if Possible
The focus position may not stabilize immediately after startup, due to lamp heat.
When adjusting focus, it is also helpful to use the test pattern (10) (P98, P178).
■Install at a Sufficient Distance from Walls and Other Obstructions
■Be Careful of Condensation
If the temperature of the room rises suddenly, moisture in the air may condense on
the projector lens and mirror, causing the image to become blurred. Wait until the
condensation has evaporated for the image projected to return to normal.
■At Altitudes above 2,300 m (7,545.8'), Adjust the Settings
Projector settings must be adjusted when using the projector at altitudes of 2,300 m
(7,545.8') or higher. Specifically, refer to instructions for [Fan mode] (P92) in the
[Install settings] menu.
If the air intake or exhaust vent
is blocked, heat will accumulate
inside the projector, possibly
resulting in a shortened
projector lifetime or a
malfunction. Do not install in a
closet, on a bookshelf, or in
other narrow spaces with poor
ventilation. Install in a well-
ventilated location. (Ensure a minimum clearance of 50 cm (1.6 ft.)
above, on both sides, and behind the projector, as shown below.)

■When Using Mounted on the Ceiling
When the projector is used mounted on the
ceiling or installed in a high location, it is
necessary to periodically clean the air
intake and exhaust vents, and the area
around the air filter. Dust that accumulates
in intake or exhaust vents may impair
ventilation, raising the temperature inside
and posing a risk of damage or fire. Use a
vacuum cleaner or similar means to
remove dust from the intake vent and
exhaust vent.

■Install Facing in the Correct Direction
When installing the projector facing upward or downward, specify which way the projector
is facing in [Install settings] > [Professional settings] > [Vertical projection]. (P93)
• The projector can be installed facing any direction*
1
, as shown
below. However, projection upward or downward may shorten the
useful life of the lamp. [Install settings] of the projector must also
be adjusted.
• For upward or downward projection, refer to instructions for
[Vertical projection] (P93) in the [Install settings] menu.
• Do not attempt to install the projector for upward or downward
projection by yourself. Always request installation by a qualified
technician or the Canon Customer Support Center.
*1 No optional accessories are available for installing the projector in
ways other than ceiling installation (P44, P197).

Installation Procedure
Before setting up the projector, be sure to read “Before Installation” (P22).
Setting Up the Projector
■Positioning the Projector in Front of the Screen
Place the projector in front of the screen.
■Floor Installation
To adjust the projection position when the projector is installed on the floor, use the
lens shift function (P46, P58) to adjust up / down / left / right. You can also use the
adjustable feet to incline the projector upward by up to 6°.
For information about the relationship between screen size and projection distance,
refer to page 45.
On some screens, colors may appear
distorted when images are viewed from the
side, but this does not indicate a problem
with the projector. For best results, use a
matte screen with a wide viewing angle
(WUX450ST).
• To avoid keystone distortion, install the
projector so that it is at right angles to the
screen.
• The screen must not be exposed to direct
sunlight or light from lighting equipment. In
a bright room, it is recommended that
lights be turned off, curtains be drawn, and
other steps taken to make the screen
easier to see.

Network Connection Overview
Connecting the projector to a network enables you to control the projector from a
computer and receive notification of projector errors via email.
Depending on the method of network connection, preparation on the computer side
may be necessary. The following is an explanation of preparation on the computer
side.
Connection Methods
The projector can be connected to a wired network with a LAN cable or to a
wireless network via Wi-Fi.
Wired Networks
To connect the projector to a wired computer network, use a LAN cable. The LAN
cable can be connected to either the LAN port or HDBaseT port.
When using the LAN port, connect the projector as follows.
When using the HDBaseT port, connect the projector as follows.
•The LAN port and HDBaseT port cannot be used at the same time for a network
connection.
•The HDBaseT port provides a maximum transfer speed of 100 Mbps. Note that
PC-free multi projection is not available.
•Select which port to use in [Communication settings] > [Wired network] (P103).

What is PJLink?
In September 2003, the PJLink Working Group was established under the Data Projector
Committee. During the first year, this PJLink Working Group standardized PJLink as a new
interface specification for projectors.
PJLink is a unified standard for operation and control of projectors.
It allows centralized control of projectors and operation from a controller for all projectors
regardless of manufacturer.
The objective is for JBMIA to improve convenience for users and expand the use of
projectors through early systemization for network monitoring and control of projectors,
which will become the mainstream in the future.
Class 1: Standardization of control and monitoring specifications for basic projector
functions
Basic projector control: Power control, input selection, etc.
Acquisition of projector information and status: Power status, input selection status, error
status, lamp use time, etc.

Projecting from Multiple Projectors at Once
(Edge Blending)
Overlapping edges of images from multiple projectors used together can be
blended to make the overall image more seamless.
■Basic Instructions
Follow these steps when using two projectors side by side.
1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge
blending] > [Adjust].
2Set [Marker] to [On].
Marker lines are projected on the images. The red marker indicates the start
position for adjustment, and the green marker, the end position.
3Adjust [Start position] for the side where images overlap. Move the start
marker to the outer edge of the overlapping area.
4Adjust [Width]. Move the end marker to the inner edge of the overlapping
area.
The area between the starting and ending markers is called the blending area.
Shading is applied to this area, and the brightness is adjusted to match
portions that overlap with other areas. After you complete settings for one
image, do the same thing for the other one to specify the blending area. Adjust
the settings to make the blending area for each image the same.
5Set [Marker] to [Off].
• If you have already completed edge blending settings, selecting [Adjust] will apply
them.
• To restore the default settings before adjustment, select [Reset].
By default, the green and red markers are displayed in the same position, so only the red
marker is visible.
Advanced Projection
160
■Color Adjustment
In overlapping projection, portions of images in the overlapping area that pick up
other colors or are miscolored may be more noticeable. You can make this
overlapping area appear less distracting by performing Color blending adjustment.
1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge
blending] > [Adjust] > [Color blending adjustment] > [Adjust].
2As you watch the image, adjust the value to eliminate unwanted colors in
the overlapping area.
First adjust red, green, and blue together by changing the [White] value, and
then adjust [Red], [Green], and [Blue] values individually.
3Repeat this adjustment on all projectors.
■Black Level Adjustment
In overlapping projection, dark colors are projected with less intensity than other
colors in the overlapping area. You can make this overlapping area less distracting
by adjusting the black level of non-overlapping image areas.
Here, the non-overlapping image area (from the end marker toward the center of
the image) is called area “D.”
Normally, three areas are identified in the context of end markers: A, B, and C.
In the following instructions, only area D is adjusted, and the widths of A, B, and C
are left at the default value of 0.
To prepare for adjustment, set [No signal screen] to [Black], start projection with no input
signal, and turn off the room lights, so that you can check dark image areas. (P100)

2Select [Adjustment type] > [Black level].
3After selecting [D-area base], as you watch the image, adjust the values
so that the brightness and colors of the blending area and area D match.
Adjust [D-area base] to lighten the black level, and adjust [Red], [Green], and
[Blue] to obtain an optimal black level color tone, as needed.
4Repeat this adjustment on all projectors.
■Smoother Overlapping Areas
The black level along the right edge of area D (along the blending area) may be
more noticeable than that of surrounding areas.
By adjusting the black level of area B, you can make the transition smoother.
To compensate, adjust each area as follows.
When the projected image has multiple blending areas (on the top, bottom, and
each side), the width of areas A, B, and C must be adjusted to suit these blending
areas.
In this example, instructions are given for adjusting area B.
1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge
blending] > [Adjust] > [Black level adjustment] > [Adjust].
2Select [Adjustment type] > [Area] > [Side] > [Right].
CBA
Area A: Black level cannot be adjusted.
Area B: Adjust to a black level different from that of area
D.
Area C: Adjust to provide a smooth transition relative to
the black levels of areas B and D.

3Select [B-width], and then specify the width of area B.
Adjust the width of area B to roughly match the area where the black level is
noticeable.
This will make the width of area D narrower.
4Select [Adjustment type] > [Black level]. Adjust [B-area base] as you
watch the image.
5As you watch the image, adjust the width of areas A, B, and C.
6Readjust the black level of area B, as needed.
To reduce distracting colors and colors that are out of alignment in areas where the images
overlap, perform [Color blending adjustment] targeting the main tone in the envisaged projected
image.
■Corner Adjustment
Projected images from multiple projectors used in overlapping projection must be
precisely repositioned. Positions of each corner in the blending area can be aligned
with the blending area of the reference projector.
1On the reference projector, configure keystone (P91) and edge-blending
(P93) settings, and then set the edge-blending markers to [On] (P159).

not eliminate the distracting colors and differences in brightness in areas where the
images overlap.
Blending can be fine-tuned by adjusting [Adjustment type] > [Black level] > [Red],
[Green], and [Blue].
• First, complete [Side] adjustment as described in “Basic Instructions” (P159).
• Sides set to an edge-blending width of 12 or more can be adjusted when [Keystone] is
set to [Corner adjustment] and the aspect ratio is [16:10].
• To reset adjustment, use [Keystone] (P91).
• A small edge-blending width may limit the amount of adjustment available.

Maintenance
Cleaning the Projector
Clean the projector frequently to prevent dust from settling on the surface.
A dirty lens may ruin the quality of the projected image.
Wipe the projector’s main unit softly with a soft cloth.
If the projector is heavily soiled, soak the cloth in water with a small amount of
detergent in it, squeeze the cloth thoroughly, and then wipe the projector with it.
After cleaning, wipe the projector with a dry cloth.
Cleaning the Air Filter
The following screen is displayed when turning on the projector if the air filter needs
to be cleaned. Clean the air filter if it is displayed.
Do not use adhesives, lubricants, oils, or alkaline detergents for
maintenance of the projector. They could adhere to the cabinet and
damage it, possibly resulting in the projector falling from its mounting
and causing an accident or personal injury.
Before cleaning the projector, always turn it off, unplug it after the
cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Otherwise, you may get
burned because the main unit is very hot immediately after the
projector is turned off.
• Never use volatile cleaning liquid or benzine, as
these may damage the finish of the projector.
• Do not use a chemical dust cloth.
• The lens surface is easily damaged, so do not use
a hard cloth or tissues.
The air filter protects the lens and mirror inside the projector from
dust and dirt. Should the air filter become clogged with dust, the
projector may be damaged since it will block the air flow into the
projector and raise the internal temperature of the projector.
• Only the [ ], [ ], OK and POWER buttons are
available while this screen is displayed. (When you
press the POWER button, the “Push POWER button
again to turn off power.” message appears.)
• When this screen has disappeared after being
displayed for 10 seconds, all buttons become operable.

Replacement Lamp
This projector uses the following lamps.
Lamp part no.: RS-LP08
Contact the Canon Customer Support Center when purchasing a replacement
lamp.
• Lamps are more likely to rupture once the lamp replacement
message has been displayed. Replace the lamp with a new one as
soon as possible.
• Lamps should be replaced about every 3,000 hours. Note that there
is no guarantee about how long lamps will last.
• Useful life of lamps varies widely from lamp to lamp and depending
on the environment of use. Some lamps may fail or rupture soon
after they are first used.
• Dispose of used lamps in accordance with local regulations.
Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working
If the illumination suddenly stops when the projector is in use or after
you turn it on, the lamp may be broken. In this case, never attempt to
replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon
Customer Support Center. Additionally, with ceiling-mounted
projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover or
while you are attempting to replace it. During replacement, stand to the
side of the lamp cover, not directly under it. If the lamp breaks and any
glass shards or other pieces get in your eyes or mouth, consult a
doctor immediately.
Before replacing the lamp, always turn off the projector, unplug it after
the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Do not touch the
lamp immediately after turning the projector off. It is very hot initially
and poses a risk of burns.

Relationship between Aspect and Screen
Aspect
This section describes the relationship between screen aspect (P60) and aspect
(P62).
Select an optimum aspect ratio of the projected image (screen aspect) or an
optimum screen mode (aspect) according to the aspect ratio of the screen, type of
input image signal and so on for the projection to make best use of the screen size.
•If a computer image with an aspect ratio of 16:9 is not projected correctly when
the setting is [Auto], select [16:9] as the screen aspect.
•For a 16:9 image with black borders at the top and bottom, such as a terrestrial
broadcast movie, you can project the 16:9 image area so that it is projected on
the entire screen by selecting [Zoom] in [Aspect].
There may be some cases that [Zoom] cannot be selected depending on the
input signal and/or resolution.
•For keystone correction (P64), select an option other than [4:3 D. image shift] or
[16:9 D. image shift] for Screen aspect.
