SmartFIT Distance Cards x2 (included in the box).
Projection Surface: Fixed Frame Screen, Fixed Frame ALR Screen (Ambient

Step

SmartFIT Distance Cards Overview
SmartFIT Distance Cards support multiple projection
methods – Fixed Frame Screen, Fixed Frame ALR Screen
and Wall. The Distance Cards are marked accordingly
(starting from the top):
Optoma ALR101 / Thick Fixed Frame / 120-inch Wall line is intended for the
Optoma 100-inch ALR101 Fixed Frame Screen, 100-inch Fixed Frame
Screens with a thick frame (back to front) and 100-inch image projected
onto a Wall. Thick Fixed Frame Screens are generally 1.6-inch to 2-inch in
depth (distance from front of screen to wall).
Optoma ALR101e / Thin Fixed Frame line is intended for use with the
Optoma 100-inch ALR101e ALR Fixed Frame Screen and 100” Thin Fixed
Frame Screen. Thin Fixed Frame Screens are generally 0.75-inch to 1.5-inch
(distance from front of screen to wall).
85-inch and 100-inch Wall line is intended for those who will not use a Fixed
Frame Screen with the projector. Use this line for projecting directly onto the
Wall.
Proceed to Step C if you plan to use the SmartFIT App for Auto Geometry
Correction, SmartFIT for Manual Geometry Correction or Step F for manual
installation with no SmartFIT Auto Geometry Correction. NOTE: SmartFIT
Auto Geometry Correction uses a combination of 4-Corner and Warping to
FIT the image to the Fixed Frame Screen by reducing the number of active
pixels. In addition, SmartFIT Auto Geometry Correction will also increase
input lag therefore, if gaming is a priority, skip to step G, all others proceed
to step C.
