Setting Up Android TV
Projector Placement
You can place the projector on almost any flat surface to project an image.
Warning: The projector is not intended to be ceiling- or wall-mounted. Do not mount the projector on a
ceiling or a wall. It could fall and cause damage or injury.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface.
• Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or
next to anything that could block the vents.
• Wherever you set up the projector, make sure to position it squarely in front of the center of the
screen, not at an angle, if possible.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.

Projection Distance
The distance at which you place the projector from the screen determines the approximate size of the
image. The image size increases the farther the projector is from the screen, but can vary depending on
the zoom factor, aspect ratio, and other settings.
Use the tables here to determine approximately how far to place the projector from the screen based on
the size of the projected image. (Conversion figures may have been rounded up or down.)
You can also use the Projection Distance Calculator here (U.S.), here (Canada), or here (Caribbean).

Connecting to an HDMI Video Source
If your video source has an HDMI port, you can connect it to the projector using an optional HDMI cable.
24
Caution: Do not turn on the video source before connecting it to the projector. Doing so could damage
the projector.
Note: If the port on your device has an unusual shape, use the cable supplied with the device or an
optional cable to connect to the projector. Some video equipment is capable of outputting different types
of signals. See your video equipment manual to confirm what type of signals can be output.
1.Connect the HDMI cable to your video source's HDMI output port.
Note: To display signals in the 18 Gbps transmission band, such as from a 4K 60 fps source, use a
cable rated for HDMI 2.0 or higher or you may have trouble displaying an image.
2.Connect the other end to one of the HDMI ports on the rear of the projector.
Note: When an audio/video source that meets the HDMI CEC standard is connected to one of the
projector's HDMI ports, you can use the projector's remote control to control certain features of the linked
device by accessing the Settings menu and enabling the HDMI CEC setting.
