Calculation methods for screen dimensions

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

SW = SD x 0.872

SH = SD x 0.490

LW = 1.2244 x SD - 0.056

LT = 2.4449 x SD - 0.056

 

Unit: m

* 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 approximately ± 30 degrees 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.
