Projector Placement
You can place the projector on almost any flat surface to project an image.
You can also install the projector in a ceiling mount if you want to use it in a fixed location.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.
• 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.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.

Projector Setup and Installation Options
You can set up or install your projector in the following ways:
28
Front
Rear
Front ceiling
29
Rear ceiling
Caution: Be sure to leave the following amount of space around the projector to avoid blocking the air
exhaust and intake vents.
1 19.7 inches (50 cm)
2 31.5 inches (80 cm)
3 15.7 inches (40 cm)
30
You can mount the projector to the ceiling at any horizontal or vertical angle.
If you are installing multiple projectors next to each other, be sure to leave at least 20 inches (50 cm) of
space between the projectors. Also, make sure heated air from an exhaust vent does not go into the air
intake vent of another projector.
If you project from the ceiling or from the rear, select the correct Projection setting and, if necessary,
turn on the Inv Direction Button setting and adjust the OSD Rotation setting.

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.)

Note: If you connected your video source to the projector using an HDMI cable, the audio signal is
transferred with the video signal; you do not need an additional cable for sound. If you have problems
hearing audio through the HDMI connection, you can play sound through an audio cable instead by
following the steps described here.
1. Connect one end of a 3.5 mm stereo mini-jack audio cable to your video source's audio-out port.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the projector's Audio port that corresponds to the Computer
