Installing the Projector
The projector can be installed for four different viewing setups: front
projection, ceiling mounting, rear projection onto a semi-transparent
screen, or rear/ceiling projection, as shown:
To project from overhead, youll need to select
Ceiling
in the
projectors Advanced menu. To project from the rear, select
Rear
Proj
. See Setting Advanced Features on page 55.
If youre mounting the projector on the ceiling and you place it above
screen level, youll have to tilt it down to position the image on-screen.
This causes the image to lose its square shape. You can then correct
the distortion by using the
V
Keystone
function in the projectors
menu system (see Customizing Projector Features on page 53) or by
using the
Keystone
buttons on the projectors control panel.
If you place the projectors lens so its level with the top of the screen,
the image will be square and you wont have to adjust it. If you place
the lens lower than the top of the screen, youll have to tilt the
projector upward if you want to fill the whole screen with the image.
