Digital Projection E-Vision 8000 series POSITIONING THE SCREEN AND PROJECTOR Installation and Quick-Start Guide
Positioning the Screen and Projector
• Install the screen, ensuring that it is in the best position for viewing by your audience.
• Mount the projector, ensuring that it is at a suitable distance from the screen for the image to ll the screen. Set the adjustable feet so that
the projector is level, and perpendicular to the screen.
• The dimension drawing below shows the positions of the feet for table mounting, and the xing holes for ceiling mounting.
Notes
Always allow the lamp to cool for
5 minutes before:
- disconnecting the power
- moving the projector
Ensure that there is at least
70cm (28in) of space between
the ventilation outlets and any
wall, and 50cm (20in) on all other
sides.
If ceiling mounting, ensure there
is 30cm (12in) of space between
the projector and ceiling.
Backup safety chains or wires
should always be used with
ceiling mount installations.
Do not stack the projectors.
Do not tilt the projector more
than ±12° in either direction, in
desktop or ceiling mode, when in
use, as this may cause serious
lamp failure, damage the lamp
module and cause extra cost on
replacement.
