Positioning the Projector
Correct positioning of the projector is essential to achieve the best results. Before
deciding on the final location of the projector please ensure you read the following
information very carefully.
The projector must be situated in a clean, dry environment and away from direct
sunlight or heat. Make sure you locate the projector so that the air inlets and outlets
for the cooling system are not obstructed.
The projector should never, under any circumstances, be operated upside down or
at an angle greater than 90° from horizontal.
PROJECTOR HEIGHT
The default height for positioning the projector is at the centre of your screen.
However, depending on your lens specification, you can set the projector above or
below the centre and adjust the image using the rising front facility to maintain a
geometrically correct image.
THROW DISTANCE - FIXED RATIO LENSES
It is important to position the projector at the right distance from the screen. This
'Throw Distance' is measured from the front of the projector case to the front of the
screen and is calculated by taking into account your screen width, the type of lens
used, and the aspect ratio you intend to display.
If you intend to display images with different aspect ratios, it is recommended that
you position the projector at a distance from the screen which will allow you to
project images at the maximum aspect ratio. Failure to do so could result in larger
aspect ratio images exceeding the height and/or width of your screen. Refer to D—3
for more information on aspect ratios.
