Foot release
Returning the projector to its original position
While holding the projector, press the foot release 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.
CAUTION
Do not press the foot release 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 in the area between the adjustment foot and the
projector.
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 Authorized
Sharp Industrial LCD Products Dealer or Service Center to
obtain the recommended ceiling-mount bracket (sold
separately). (AN-XGCM53 ceiling-mount bracket, AN-EP101B
extension tube for AN-XGCM53.)
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.)
