Positioning the projector
To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of
your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between
the projector and the rest of your equipment. Here are some general
guidelines:
Position the projector on a flat surface at a
right angle to the screen. The
projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.5m) from the projection screen.
Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and
within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase
extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the
projector within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, we strongly
recommend using InFocus approved ceiling mounts for proper fitting,
ventilation and installation. Refer to the installation guide that comes
with the InFocus Ceiling Mount Kit (p/n SP-CEIL-UNIV) for more
information. The warranty does not cover any damage caused by use of
non-approved ceiling mount kits or by installing in an improper
location.
Position the projector the desired di
stance from the screen. The
distance from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting,
and the video format determine the size of the projected image.
The image exits the projector at a given angle. IN3902LB image offset is
115%; IN3904LB image offset is 112.4%. This means that if you have an
image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 1.5' (IN3902LB) and
1.24' (IN3904LB) above the center of the lens.
