Positioning your projector

For example, if you are using a 120-inch screen, the recommended projection distance in the “Average” column is 4702 mm. If your measured projection distance is 7000 mm, the closest match in the “Average” column is 7053 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 180” (about 4.6 m) screen is required.
To optimize your projection quality, we suggest doing the projection by referring to the values listed in the non-gray rows.
All measurements are approximate and may vary from the actual sizes. BenQ recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should physically test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you permanently install it, so as to make allowance for this projector’s optical characteristics. This will help you determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation location.
Mounting the projector
If you intend to mount your projector, we strongly recommend that you use a proper fitting BenQ projector mounting kit and that you ensure it is securely and safely installed. If you use a non-BenQ brand projector mounting kit, there is a safety risk that the projector may fall down due to an improper attachment through the use of the wrong gauge or length screws.
Before mounting the projector
· Purchase a BenQ projector mounting kit from the place you purchased your BenQ projector. · Ask your dealer to install the projector for you. Installing the projector on your own may cause
it to fall and result in injury. · Take necessary procedures to prevent the projector from falling off such as during an
earthquake. · The warranty doesn’t cover any product damage caused by mounting the projector with a
non-BenQ brand projector mounting kit. · Consider the surrounding temperature where the projector is ceiling/wall mounted. If a heater
is used, the temperature around the ceiling may be higher than expected. · Read the user manual for the mounting kit about the range of torque. Tightening with torque
exceeding the recommended range may cause damage to the projector and subsequently falling off. · Make sure the power outlet is at an accessible height so that you can easily shut down the projector.

Shifting the projection lens

The lens shift control provides flexibility for installing your projector. It allows the projector to be positioned off the center of the screen.

The lens shift is expressed as a percentage of the projected image height or width. You can turn the knobs on the projector to shift the projection lens in any direction within the allowable range depending on your desired image position.

2. When you feel it is reaching the limit, turn (Left/Right) to the left or right and turn
again.
3. Repeat the step above until finding the suitable position you need.
· If you hear a “clicking sound” during the adjustment, it means that the knob is past its adjustment limit. Please stop adjusting it, in order to avoid any unexpected damage, and turn the knob in the opposite direction, at least to one step before the click.
· If you can’t turn it back, please press and turn the knob back at same time.

Positioning your projector 15

Adjusting the projected image
Adjusting the projection angle
If the projector is not placed on a flat surface or the screen and the projector are not perpendicular to each other, the projected image becomes trapezoidal. You can adjust the adjuster feet to fine-tune the horizontal angle.
To retract the feet, screw the adjuster feet in a reverse direction.

Do not look into the lens while the light source is on. The strong light from the light source may cause damage to your eyes.

Fine-tuning the image size and clarity

· Adjust the projected image to the size that you need using the zoom ring.

· Sharpen the image by rotating the focus ring.

Correcting keystone

Keystoning refers to the situation where the projected image becomes a trapezoid due to angled projection.
To correct the distorted image: 1. Display the 3D Keystone correction from the following menus.
· The Installation menu of the Advanced menu system 2. After the 3D Keystone correction page appears:
· Press / to select V, H, or R. Selecting V corrects the vertical sides keystone. Selecting H corrects the horizontal sides keystone. Selecting R rotates the projected image clockwise or counterclockwise. · Press / to adjust its value. · To automatically correct the vertical sides of the distorted image, press OK for 2 seconds, or enable Auto Vertical Keystone on the Installation menu. 3. Please be noticed that the projected image might be distorted when the keystone value is set to over 30. And when the keystone adjustment reaches its limit, the machine will not respond to your request. You have to set the keystone value of the axis you are adjusting to 0 and lower another axis with the maximum value. Thus, it is recommended to set your keystone value under 30 for each axis.

High Altitude Mode

We recommend you use the High Altitude Mode when your environment is between 1500 m­3000 m above sea level, and ambient temperature is between 0°C­30°C.
Operation under “High Altitude Mode” may cause a higher decibel operating noise level because of increased fan speed necessary to improve overall system cooling and performance.
If you use this projector under other extreme conditions excluding the above, it may display auto shut-down symptoms, which is designed to protect your projector from over-heating. In cases like this, you should switch to High Altitude mode to solve these symptoms. However, this is not to state that this projector can operate under any and all harsh or extreme conditions.

Light source information

Getting to know the light hour

When the projector is in operation, the duration (in hours) of light source usage is automatically calculated by the built-in timer. The method of calculating the equivalent light hour is as follows:
1. Light Usage Time = (x+y+z+a) hours, if: Time used in Normal mode = x hours Time used in ECO mode = y hours Time used in Dimming mode = z hours Time used in Custom mode = a hours

2. Equivalent Light Hour = hours
= A-X–‘ × + -AY–‘ × y + A-Z–‘ × z + -AA–‘ × a , if
X= light source life spec of Normal mode Y= light source life spec of ECO mode Z= light source life spec of Dimming mode A= light source life spec of Custom mode
A’ is the longest light life spec among X, Y, Z, A
For time used in each light mode shown in OSD menu: · Time used is accumulated and rounded down to an integer in hours. · When time used is less than 1 hour, it shows 0 hours.

When you calculate Equivalent Light Hours manually, it will probably have deviation from the value shown in OSD menu since projector system calculates time used for each light mode in “Minutes” then rounds down to an integer in hours shown in OSD.

To obtain the light hour information: Go to Advanced menu – System > Light Source Information and press OK. The Light Source Information page appears. You can also get the light hour information on the Information menu.
