Connecting External Sensors

Safety Instructions

Caution

Connecting external sensors is an important process for post-connection safety. To prevent accidents during connection or use, hire a

professional to carry out the connection.

Incorrect connection could cause the projector or external sensors to malfunction.

Make sure that the external sensors are installed so that they do not exceed the maximum rating.

See the user's guide supplied with the external sensors for details on handling the external sensors.

Seiko Epson Corporation cannot be held liable for any accidents caused by the malfunction or misuse of external sensors.

When using external sensors, make sure you follow the instructions in this guide.

Seiko Epson Corporation cannot be held liable for any accidents caused by not following the instructions in this guide.

EV-115 / EV-110 support external sensors.

You can set the projector to perform operations when the external

sensors are triggered.

•

You can connect up to two external sensors.

•

You can use two external sensors at the same time. You can also set

projector operations by combining the signals from each sensor.

•

Prepare commercially available parts, such as connectors, for the

external sensors and their connections.

•

As well as sensors, you can also connect other external devices such as

buttons and switches.

Example: Installing a motion sensor in an entranceway to

project specific content when a customer passes by.

GPI-1/GPI-2 specifications

Connect external sensors to the projector’s DC Out (2.0A) / GPI In port (see the

illustration on the right).

Before connecting, you need to modify the end that connects to the DC Out

(2.0A) / GPI In port so that it is a USB-A shape.
