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
p
rojector (with the standard zoom lens, LENS-074) must be at 55.8”/
1.42m(XGA) ; 60.2”/1.53m (WXGA) ; 57.2”/1.45m (WUXGA) from the
projection screen. See appendix for additional lens information.
• Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and within 6
f
eet (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.
• Position the projector to the desired distance 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 at a given angle. However, the lens shift feature makes the
image offset variable.
• The vertical image offset range for all the projectors is -60% to +20% (default
0%), and the horizontal image offset is +/-10% (default 0%). At 20% vertical
offset, the bottom of the image is 20% of the image height above the center
of the lens in a tabletop configuration.
