Note: Use the direct mount (included) only for mounting the projector on a wall or ceiling. If installing on
a lighting track, use only the optional lighting track mount (ELPMB54). If you do not mount the projector,
use only the optional floor stand (ELPMB55).
Note: Be sure to leave at least the following amount of space around the projector to avoid blocking the
air exhaust and intake vents.
111.8 inches (30 cm)
27.8 inches (20 cm)
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.
25
You can rotate the projection unit 360 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically. You can also tilt
the image 90 degrees in either direction.
Make sure to select the correct Projection setting in the Extended menu.

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.
Refer to the tables in the Installation Guide 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).
