The values shown in the table are calculated for a full size screen.
a Screen size (diagonal) |
b1 , b2 Projection distance (±8%) |
c1 , c2 Screen height (±8%) |
•For the case of installation in special conditions such as on the wall or ceiling, the specified mounting accessories (21) and service may be required. Tabletop use must be set up with the designated optional accessories (21). Before installing the projector, consult your dealer about your installation.
•The screen position may shift after installation if the projector is mounted on locations such as the wall or ceiling, due to the flexibility of the plastic projector body. If readjustment is necessary, consult with your dealer or service personnel.
•The projected image position and/or focus may change during warm-up (approx. 30 minutes after the lamp is turned on) or when the ambient conditions change. Readjust the image position and/or focus as necessary.
•Since the projector features an ultra short throw, be aware that it is required to select a screen carefully to have better performance.
