JJ Calculation methods for screen dimensions

You can calculate more detailed screen dimensions from the screen diagonal.

Screen height (SH)

16:9 size

2.35:1 size

= SD (m) × 0.490

= SD (m) × 0.392

Screen width (SW)

= SD (m) × 0.872

= SD (m) × 0.920

Minimum distance (LW)

= SD (m) × 1.189 − 0.04

= SD (m) × 1.256 − 0.04

Maximum distance (LT)

= SD (m) × 2.378 − 0.05

= SD (m) × 1.899 − 0.05

NOTE:

•• You can tilt the projector body less than approximately ±30 ° vertically and ±10 ° horizontally. +30 ° Overtilting may result in shortening the component’s life.

•• Do not cover the air exhaust/intake ports or place anything within 50 cm (19 5/8") of them.
