    • Minimum Aperture: 1.58 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
    • Maximum Aperture: 1.7 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

Q: My Epson home Cinema 1060 will no longer power on. Does this mean the bulb is blown out? Or is there some other problem?

A: It’s likely a failed power supply. Mine did it about a month ago. Call Epson and they can get you a replacement.

Q: My projector has began to flicker when on ECO mode. I've been using this project for about 7 months now—the family usually usually uses it about 3 to 4 hours a day. Is this a sign the bulb is needing to be replaced or something else?

A: I've had the same issue with my 1060 and I bought mine in August of last year. No where near the max hours for a typical bulb and mine starts flickering after a while now in ECO mode. From what I have read through research is that it's a problem with the ECO mode in these projectors. It doesn't provide the right amount of power needed for the bulb to operate consistently. I'm thinking there is some truth to that because if you take it out of ECO mode and put it into Normal mode, the problem goes away. Kind of annoying because ECO mode is plenty of light in my opinion and I don't like the higher fan noise in normal mode.

Q: What is the maximum distance for this projector? I have a 120" screen. Setting the screen on one side of my pool and want to make sure the projector can display the distance across.

A: To answer your question, I need to know if you're measuring screen width from side to side or diagonally (from one corner to the opposite corner.) Assuming width is from left side to right side, the projector set-back is found by multiplying the screen width by the throw ratio of the projector. This projector has a throw ratio of 1.35 to 1.64, So to produce a picture 120" wide (10 feet) the projector has to be 13.5 to 16.4 feet from the screen. On the other had, if you're screen measure is diagonal, you need to look at the width to height ratio to figure true screen width. As most video screens today are a 16:9 ratio, your magic number is 0.872. Multiply your diagonal screen width by that number, then multiply by the throw ratio: 10' x 0.872 x 1.35 = 11.7' minimum, 10' x 0.872 x 1.64 = 14.3' maximum. If you're using the older, original TV format ratio of 4:3. the magic number is 0.8 for a minimum and maximum distance of 10.8' to 13.1'.

Q: I’m trying to hook up a firestick to the projector and also to my surround sound help

A: 1. Buy a HDMI audio splitter. Firestick plugs into splitter. Splitter to projector using HDMI cable. Splitter to receiver or sound bar using optical or coax digital audio cable. 2. Firestick has built in Bluetooth. You can connect to a Bluetooth receiver which connects to your home theater. 3. Use Bluetooth capability of Firestick to connect to a Bluetooth speaker. Connect "headphone out" of Bluetooth speaker to input of your receiver or sound bar using an earphone to RCA cable.

Q: Can a iPad or a portable storage device be connected to the projector

A: Yes, it can be connected to an iPad or a portable storage device.

Q: I just ordered this projector. I have a ps4 and a direct tv box. Both of which use HDMI. I also ordered a surround sound system for this projector which came with a blue ray player. My question is, how do I hookup so that surround sound and direct tv work

A: Well you might need a multi hdmi splitter where that is hooked up to the projector and then your components are hooked up the the splitter. In my case I have my surround sound set up with a pioneer receiver which has 4 hdmi outputs and 1 hdmi input. So the 1 input plugs into the projector then your components plug in to the receiver. Hope I didn’t confuse you.
