Note
f The projector has a built-in angle sensor. When projecting in front of the screen, if set the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu → [PROJECTION
METHOD] → [AUTO], the projector's posture will be detected automatically. When projecting from rear, please set the [PROJECTION
METHOD] to [REAR/DESK] or [REAR/CEILING].
r Angle sensor
The range of installation posture detected by the projector's built-in angle sensor is as follows.
In the case of [AUTO], when the projector is placed horizontally upright within ±120°, it will switch to [FRONT/
DESK]; when the projector is placed horizontally upside down within ±30°, it will switch to [FRONT/CEILING]
automatically. However, the setting range for [FRONT/DESK] is horizontally upright within ±30°.
Attention
f The angle sensor cannot detect whether it is the "Installation prohibited posture" in the above picture. Please do not use the projector tilted
at an angle that exceeds ±30° from the vertical plane. It may reduce the life of the components.
