screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector

 

and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general guidelines:

 

Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 4.9’ (1.5m) from the projection screen.

Position the projector within 10’ (3m) of your power source and within 6’ (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector within 6” (.15m) of a wall or other object.

Position the projector to the desired distance from the screen. The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format determine the size of the projected image.

If the image is square but not centered on the screen or viewing area, adjust it by using the lens shift dials. Use the Horizontal dial to shift the lens left or right. Use the Vertical dial to shift the lens up or down.

NOTE: As the lens is shifted away from the lens centerline, the horizontal shift range is reduced. To adjust lens shift efficiently we suggest you follow these steps:

1Use vertical lens shift to move the image closer to the lens centerline than the final vertical position.

2Use horizontal lens shift to determine the center horizontal position, then move image to the center horizontal position.

3Use vertical lens shift to move the image away from the lens centerline to the final vertical position.

4Use horizontal lens shift to move the image to the final horizontal position.

5If lens shift is unable to move the image far enough, move the projector (preferable) or tilt the projector and then use vertical and horizontal keystone to re-position the image.
