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. Here are some general guidelines:
•Position the projector on a flat surface at a right angle to the screen. The projector must be at least 4.9 feet (1.49m) from the projection screen.
•Position the projector within 10 feet (3m) of your power source and within 6 feet (1.8m) of your video device (unless you purchase extension cables). To ensure adequate cable access, do not place the projector within 6 inches (.15m) of a wall or other object.
•If you are installing the projector on the ceiling, refer to the installation guide that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit for more information. To turn the image upside down, see “Ceiling” on page 33. InFocus recommends using an authorized InFocus ceiling mount. The Ceiling Mount Kit is sold separately; see “Optional Accessories” on page 40.
•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. The top illustration to the right shows three projected image sizes. For more information about image sizes at different distances, see “Projected image size” on page 40.
•The image exits the projector at a given angle. The image offset is 112.2% when the projector is in 4:3 mode (default mode). This means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 1.22’ above the center of the lens.
•This image offset is 124.7% when the projector is in 16:9 mode. This means that if you have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 2.47’ above the center of the lens.
•See “Connecting a video device” on page 11 for additional information on 16:9 and 4:3 modes.

The second time a USB Human Interface Device (for the keyboard).
The third time it detects a USB Human Interface Device (for the mouse).
For Windows 2000, Windows ME, and Windows XP:
•The USB drivers are automatically installed.
10
Connecting a video device |
|
|
|
You can connect VCRs, DVD players, camcorders, digital cameras, video |
|
|
|
games, HDTV receivers, and TV tuners to the projector. There is also an |
|
|
|
audio input. You can connect the audio directly to the projector to get sound |
|
|
|
from the onboard speaker, or you can connect it to your stereo’s receiver to |
|
|
|
get sound from your own speakers. |
|
|
|
Before connecting your projector, you should decide which aspect ratio you |
|
|
|
want to use. Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV |
|
|
|
screens are usually 4:3, which is the default for this projector. HDTV and |
|
|
|
most DVDs are 16:9. If you’re projecting onto a screen, the size/shape of the |
|
|
|
screen may answer this question for you. If you are projecting onto a blank |
|
|
|
wall, you don’t have the screen size restriction. What you plan to project |
|
|
|
will also help you choose between 4:3 and 16:9. Most regular TV shows are |
|
|
|
4:3, while most movies are 16:9. |
|
|
|
If you select 4:3 and play TV, the image will fill the screen. If you select 16:9 |
|
|
|
|
black bars |
|
|
and play HDTV, the image will fill the screen. However, if you select 4:3 and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
play a 16:9 DVD, the image may be compressed horizontally or have black |
|
16:9 image in a 4:3 space |
|
bars along the top and bottom. If you select 16:9 and play regular TV, the |
3 |
|
|
|
|
||
image may be stretched horizontally or have black bars along the sides. You |
|
|
9 |
can make this selection later using the onscreen menus (page 30), but for |
|
black bars |
|
now you just need to know which format you’ll use most often. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can connect the projector to most video devices that can output video. |
4 |
|
|
You cannot directly connect the coaxial cable that enters your house from a |
|
|
|
cable or satellite company, the signal must pass through a tuner first. Exam- |
|
|
|
ples of tuners are digital cable boxes, VCRs, digital video recorders, and sat- |
|
|
|
ellite TV boxes. Basically, any device that can change channels is considered |
|
|
|
a tuner. |

The next step is to figure out what type of connectors/output the equipment you want to connect has. If there is more than one output, select the one with the highest quality. Component video has the best quality, followed by S-video, then composite video.
If you are connecting the projector to HDTV, the projector’s computer connector should be used.
Keep in mind that HDTV and progressive sources can only be handled through the projector’s VGA connector. The Component to S-video adapter does not function with progressive sources. With progressive sources, the Component video connector requires Breakout cables purchased from a third-party.
NOTE: S-video cables are not included with the InFocus X1 projector. You can purchase this accessory separately. See page 39 for a list of accessories you can purchase for this projector.
