Installation and Setup

If you do not want to use the distance table, you can use the following equations to help determine where to install the projector relative to the screen.

Calculating projection dimensions

distance from screen = A × width of screen

min and max distance from screen = B

width of screen = 0.8 × diagonal of screen (for 4:3 screen)

projector lens at same level as bottom or top of screen

A = 1.98 to 2.38

B = 1.5 to 14 m (5 to 46 ft)

If your installation does not fall within these ranges, an add-on lens might be required. See “To install an add-on lens” on page 57.

To install on a table

1.Place the projector on a stable platform located 1.5 to 14 m (5 to 46 ft) in front of the screen.

2.Connect all necessary cables to the projector.

3.If necessary, set the projector to match the installation. Open the on-screen menu and select setup > Projector position. Then choose Front Table from the drop-down list.

To install on the ceiling

Your ceiling mount might differ from the one shown in the following images. However, the installation steps are basically the same.

✎HP recommends that a qualified carpenter or electrician install the ceiling mount.
