The connection method varies depending on your Epson document camera
model. See the document camera manual for details.
Connecting to an HDBaseT Transmitter
To send an HDMI or RS-232C signal over a long distance, you can connect
the projector to an optional HDBaseT transmitter using a 100Base-TX
network cable (EB-2265U/EB-2165W). This is useful when you want to send a
signal to or control the projector from a remote location, such as in a hall or
event site, since you can use a network cable up to 100 m in length. To ensure
proper data transmission, use a Category 5e STP cable or better. However,
operation is not guaranteed for all input/output devices and environments.

also connect an external monitor to the projector. This lets you see your
presentation on the external monitor even when the projected image is not
visible.
