Using the Adjustment Foot

You can adjust the height of the image by raising the projector with the foot release.

1Press the foot release and lift the projector to the desired angle. (Adjustable up to approximately 5° from the standard position.)

2Remove your hand from the foot release. Once the adjustment foot has locked in position, release the projector.

3If the screen is at an angle, the adjuster can be used to adjust the angle of the image. (Adjustable up to approximately 1° from the original position.)

Operation

Returning the projector to its original position

While holding the projector, press the foot release and slowly lower the projector to its original position.

When an adjustment is made, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending on the relative positions of the projector and the screen.

CAUTION

Do not press the foot release when the adjustment foot is extended without firmly holding the projector.

Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector.

When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught in the area between the adjustment foot and the projector.

Reversed Image Setup

Rear projection

Place a translucent screen between the projector and the audience.

Use the projector’s menu system to reverse the projected image. (See page 44 for use of this function.)

Projection using a mirror

When the distance between the projector and screen is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.

Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.

Project the normal image onto the mirror.

The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto the translucent screen.

Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level.

CAUTION

When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the eyes of the audience.

Ceiling-mount Setup

It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp ceiling- mount bracket for this installation.

Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest Authorized

Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to obtain the recommended ceiling-mount bracket (sold separately). (AN-XGCM53 ceiling-mount bracket, AN-EP101B extension tube for AN-XGCM53.)

• When the projector is in the inverted position, use the upper edge of the screen as the base line.

Use the projector’s menu system to select the appropriate projection mode. (See page 44 for use of this function.)
