Setting up the Projector

Setting up the Projector

Position the projector perpendicular to the screen with the projector’s feet flat and level to achieve
an optimal image.

Note

• For an optimal image, position the screen so that it is not in direct sunlight or room light. Light falling
directly on the screen washes out the colors, making viewing difficult. Close the curtains and dim
the lights when setting up the screen in a sunny or bright room.

Standard Setup (Front Projection)

■ Place the projector at the required distance from the screen according
to the desired picture size. (See page 19.)

Projecting a Reversed Im­age

Projection from behind the
Screen

■ Place a translucent screen between the pro­jector and the audience.

■ Reverse the image by setting “Rear” in the
“PRJ Mode” menu. (See page 46.)

Projection Using a Mirror

■ Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of
the lens.

■ When the translucent screen is placed be­tween the mirror and audience, set to “Front”
in the “PRJ Mode” menu. (See page 46.)

■ When the mirror is placed on the audience
side, set to “Rear” in the “PRJ Mode” menu.
(See page 46.)

Info

• When using a mirror, be sure to carefully posi­tion both the projector and the mirror so the
light does not shine into the eyes of the audi­ence.
