Installation

Throw Distance ➤ Throw distance is the distance measured from the front of the projector to the screen. This is an important calculation in any projector installation as it determines whether or not you have enough room to install your projector with a desired screen size and if your image will be the right size for your screen.

You can quickly estimate the throw distance by taking the width of the screen and multiplying it by the lens throw ratio; see Figure 3-1.The result of this calculation tells you roughly how far back the projector should be positioned from the screen in order to project a focused image large enough to fill the screen.

Estimating Throw Distance

Throw Distance (TD) = Screen Width (w) x Lens Throw Ratio

CL-810 Throw Ratio: 1.80 to 2.38

CL-810/CineWide Throw Ratio: 1.90 to 2.38

CL-810 Ultra Throw Ratio: refer to Table 3-3
