SETTING UP THE PROJECTOR
1Place the projector on a flat surface.
•The projector must be within 7.5 feet (2.3 m) of your power source.
•If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the Ceiling Mount Installation Guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 34. The Ceiling Mount Kit is sold separately; see page 48.
2Position the projector the desired distance from the screen.
•The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen and the zoom lens setting determine the size of the projected image. Table 1 shows example projected image sizes and minimum and maximum distances to the screen.
The formulas for distance to the screen are:
Max distance (ft) = diagonal image size (ft) ÷ .541 Min distance (ft) = diagonal image size (ft) ÷ .716
