Positioning the projector
To determine where to position the projector, consider the size and shape of your
screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector
and the rest of your equipment. Following are some general guidelines:
v Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The
projector must be at least 1.5 m (4.9 ft) from the projection screen.
v Position the projector within 2.7 m (9 ft) of your power source and within 1.8 m
(6 ft) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure
adequate cable access, do not place the projector within .15 m (6 in.) of a wall or
other object.
v Position the projector the desired distance from the screen. The distance from the
lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format
determine the size of the projected image.
