INSTALLATION & SETUP

DLV 1280 User's Manual
DLV 1280 is set up at the factory for use in a front screen, floor mount
orientation. If the installation is ceiling mount or rear screen, your initial images
will likely be displayed upside down and/or reversed. To correct, you must
change the image orientation from within the Preferences menu. You may prefer
to do this before
physically installing the
projector, however it can
be done at any time. See
Section 3, Operation for
further information.
In the Preferences menu,
highlight and select the
"Orientation" option to
display a pull-down list.
From a front screen floor
mount installation, select
from Front, Rear,
Inverted Front, or
Inverted Rear according
to your intended installation. See Figure 2-21.
For most installations
you will want to make
sure that the projector
is level from side-to-
side and that the lens
surface is parallel to
the screen. This will
ensure a rectangular
image that is level. To
make small corrections
to the projector's level, rotate each leg as necessary to raise or lower.
Special Mounting Angles
If desired, the projector can be rotated and mounted at any angle front-to-back.
The side-to-side tilt, however, must not exceed ±45
°
. This limit ensures that the
arc lamp in the projector operates properly and safely, and applies to all
projectors using similar lamps. See Figure 2-22.
WARNING
Do not operate the projector outside these ranges.
