Setting Up the Projector

Follow the instructions in these sections to set up your projector for use.
Projector Placement Removing and Attaching the Cable Cover Projector Connections Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

Projector Placement

Your ultra-short throw projector is designed to be installed on a wall (with a wall mount).
You can also place the projector on a flat surface such as a desk or table to project in a portable setup.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Follow the instructions in the Installation Guide provided with your mounting hardware to install the projector.
• 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.
• If you are using the projector at altitudes above 4921 feet (1500 m), set the High Altitude Mode setting to On in the projector's Installation menu to ensure the projector's internal temperature is regulated properly.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
• If installing vertically on a table, a commercially available mount compatible with the VESA Mounting Interface Standard (100 x 100 mm) is required.
• If installing on a wall, the wall mount (V12HA06A05) is required.
• If the projector is not mounted, place it on a sturdy, level surface.
• Place the projector so it squarely faces the screen, not at an angle. If you cannot install the projector squarely facing the screen, correct any resulting image distortion using the projector controls.
• Try not to set up the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Projector Setup and Installation Options

You can set up or install your projector in the following ways:
Mounted on the wall or ceiling
Mounted on the wall or ceiling and projecting from behind a translucent screen

Front projection from a table or portable cart
Rear projection from a table or portable cart behind a translucent screen
Wherever you set up the projector, make sure to position it squarely in front of the screen, not at an angle.
If you place the projector vertically, turn on the Vertical Installation setting in the projector's Installation menu.
If you install the projector to a fixed location, turn on the Fixed Installation setting in the projector's Installation menu.
If you project from a table or portable cart, be sure to select the correct Projection option in the projector's menu system.

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 HDBaseT Transmitter

To send an HDMI or RS-232C signal over a long distance, you can connect the projector to an optional HDBaseT transmitter using a 100Base-TX network cable. This is useful when you want to send a signal to or control the projector from a remote location, such as in a hall or event site, since you can use a network cable up to 328 feet (100 m) in length. To ensure proper data transmission, use a Category 5e STP cable or better.
Note: Set the A/V Output setting to Always On in the Signal I/O menu to control the projector when it is not projecting any images.
1. Turn off the projector and HDBaseT transmitter.
Note: Make sure the projector and HDBaseT transmitter are turned off when connecting or disconnecting a network cable between the two devices.
2. Connect one end of the network cable to the HDBaseT port on the transmitter.
3. Connect the other end to the projector's HDBaseT port.
Note: See the documentation that came with the HDBaseT transmitter for instructions on connecting it to your video device or computer.
4. Turn on the projector and HDBaseT transmitter.
Note: To enable communication from the Ethernet and serial ports on the transmitter, enable Control Communications in the HDBaseT settings of the projector's Signal I/O menu. Turning on this setting
disables the projector's LAN and RS-232C ports. If you connected an Extron XTP transmitter or switcher to the projector's HDBaseT port, select On as the Extron XTP setting in the projector's Signal I/O menu.

Image Shape

You can project an evenly rectangular image by placing the projector directly in front of the center of the screen and keeping it level. If you place the projector at an angle to the screen, or tilted up or down, or off to the side, you may need to correct the image shape for the best display quality. After correction, your image is slightly smaller.
For the best quality images, try to adjust the projector's position to achieve the correct image size and shape. You cannot correct an image shape using multiple correction methods at the same time.
