Compatible Video Formats

The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM
international video standards, as well as the monitor display
formats listed below.

To project images output from a computer, the computer’s
video card must be set at a refresh rate (vertical frequency)
that’s compatible with the projector; see the following table
for compatible formats. As noted below, some images are
automatically resized to display in one of the projector’s
“native” formats (such as SVGA). In addition, the frequencies
of some computers may not allow images to display correctly;
see your computer’s documentation for details.

Follow these guidelines when positioning the projector:

❏ Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, between

3 and 37 feet from the screen.

❏ Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and

under the projector.

❏ Make sure the projector is within 6 feet of a grounded

electrical outlet or extension cord and within 5 feet of your
computer and/or video source.

❏ Place the projector directly in front of the center of the

screen, facing it toward the screen squarely. Otherwise, your
image will not be square.
