Setting up the Screen
Using the Adjustment Feet
You can adjust the height of the image by raising the projector with the
foot release.
1 Lift the projector and press HEIGHT ADJUST.
(The adjuster comes out.)
2 While pressing HEIGHT ADJUST, lower the projector to adjust
the height. (Adjustable up to approximately 8° from the standard
position)
3 Remove your finger from HEIGHT ADJUST at the desired angle.
4 Rotate the rear adjuster to adjust the projector exactly.
(Adjustable up to approximately 1° from the left rear foot)
Returning the projector to its original position
While holding the projector, press HEIGHT ADJUST and slowly lower the
projector to its original position.
When an adjustment is made, the image may become distorted (keystoned), depending
on the relative positions of the projector and the screen.
Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level.
Reversed Image Setup
Projection using a mirror
When the distance between the projector and screen
is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you can
use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.
Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.
Project the normal image onto the mirror.
The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto
the translucent screen.
Rear projection
Place a translucent screen between the projector and
the audience.
Use the projectors menu system to reverse the
projected image. (See page 44 for use of this
function.)
CAUTION
When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the eyes of
the audience.
Ceiling-mount Setup
It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp ceiling-mount
bracket for this installation.
Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest Sharp
Authorized Projector Dealer or Service Center to obtain the
recommended ceiling-mount bracket (sold separately). (AN-
PGCM85 ceiling-mount bracket and its AN-EP101A extension tube
(for U.S.A.), or AN-M15T ceiling-mount bracket and its AN-TK201/
AN-TK202 extension tubes (for countries other than the U.S.A.))
When the projector is in the inverted position, use the upper edge
of the screen as the base line.
Use the projectors menu system to select the appropriate projection
mode. (See page 44 for use of this function.)
CAUTION
Do not press HEIGHT ADJUST when the adjustment foot is extended without firmly holding the projector.
Do not hold the lens when lifting or lowering the projector.
When lowering the projector, be careful not to get your fingers caught between the table and the projector.
