INSTALLATION

CHOOSING A LOCATION
The room layout and the desired room design will be the most important factors in choosing where to place the projector. Consider the following when selecting a location:

• The size, shape, and position of your screen.
• Location of a suitable power outlet.
• Ensure the projector has sufficient room around it for airflow.

The projector is designed to be installed in one of four layouts. You can either hang the projector from the ceiling via a special mounting bracket (NOT INCLUDED), or simply place it on a stable surface. You may need to change the projection mode so the images project correctly. Select Projection Mode under the Setting tab, then choose the corresponding projection mode for your needs .

Note: A specific rear projection screen is required to use the rear projection function.

PROJECTOR DISTANCE & SIZE
Note: Due to manufacturing tolerances there will be variances of about 3% from unit to unit. The above data is for reference only. Please use actual measurements when installing the device.

KEYSTONE CORRECTION
Keystone correction, also known as keystoning, refers to adjusting the image of a projector that is displaying an angled image. This is often an issue when mounting a projector, as it often will be mounted above or below the horizontal center line of the screen. This will mean that the image will be displayed on the screen at an angle and this will change the shape of the image to a trapezoid instead of a rectangle. To correct this, please attempt: Please use the Keystone Adjustment knob to adjust the vertical keystone if the projection image shows up tilted, as shown below.

FOCUS ADJUSTMENT
Please use the Focus Adjustment knob to adjust the focus, rotate the knob left or right until the image is clear. If the image does not clear and instead becomes more fuzzy, rotate the knob in the opposite direction until the image clears up.

MULTI-MEDIA CONNECTIONS

This section guides you on how to connect the projector with other equipment.

USB CONNECTIONS
