Positioning your projector

Choosing a location

Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation locations.

Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select. Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment.

1. Front:

Select this location with the projector placed near the floor in front of the screen. This is the most common way to position the projector for quick setup and portability.

2. Front Ceiling:

Select this location with the projector suspended from the ceiling in front of the screen.

Purchase the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mount Kit from your dealer to mount your projector on the ceiling.
