Calculation methods for screen dimensions

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

SW (m) = SD (m) x 0.872

SH (m) = SD (m) x 0.490

LW (m) = 1.2244 x SD (m) - 0.056

LT (m) = 2.449 x SD (m) - 0.056

* The results above are approximate and may differ slightly from the actual measurements.

NOTE:

•Do not use the projector at a raised or a horizontally tilted position as it may cause malfunction of the projector.

•Make sure the projector lens surface is parallel with the screen. You can tilt the projector body less than approximately ± 30° vertically. Overtilting may result in shortening the component’s life.

•For the best quality of the projection image, install a screen where sun light or room light

does not shine directly onto the screen. Close window shades or curtains to block the lights.
