How to install Epson Finger Touch Unit (ELPFT01)

Installing the ELPFT01 is a straightforward process designed for rapid setup in a variety of spaces. Start by selecting a clean, flat projection surface and ensuring the projector is correctly aligned with the screen or wall. Place the touch unit so that its active touch area aligns precisely with the projected image, taking care to avoid edges where accuracy may suffer. Connect the USB cable from the finger touch unit to an available USB port on the projector or to a nearby control hub or PC, depending on your configuration. Power on the projector and verify that the display is active and stable before enabling touch features. In many setups, the system will automatically recognize the touch unit; if prompted, follow on-screen instructions to complete device recognition. Perform a quick calibration by touching the corners (or as directed) of the projected image, ensuring touch input corresponds accurately to what you see on screen. Once calibration is complete, begin your presentation and use finger gestures to navigate slides, annotate content in real time, and interact with software displayed via the projector. If you move the unit to a new location or change the projection surface, repeat the calibration to restore precise touch accuracy. For best results, keep the touch surface clean and free of dust, and avoid reflective materials that could interfere with sensing. When not in use, store the unit in its protective packaging or a dedicated case to prevent damage during transport.
