Installation Considerations
Proper installation of your projector will ensure the quality of your display. Whether you are
installing a projector temporarily or permanently, you should take the following into account
to ensure your projector performs optimally.
Installation TypeChoose the installation type that best suits your ne
eds: front or rear screen, floor mount or
inverted mount. Table 3-2 compares these various installation methods.
Ambient LightIn general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the screen. Contrast ratio in your
image
s will be noticeably reduced if light directly strikes the screen, such as when a shaft of
light from a window or floodlight falls on the image. Images may then appear washed out
and less vibrant.
