Wherever you set up the projector, make sure to position it squarely in front of the screen, not at an
angle.
If you place the projector vertically, turn on the Vertical Installation setting in the projector's Installation
menu.
If you install the projector to a fixed location, turn on the Fixed Installation setting in the projector's
Installation menu.
If you project from a table or portable cart, be sure to select the correct Projection option in the
projector's menu system.
Note: You cannot use the interactive pens or finger touch when projecting from behind a screen or under
a table.

Projection Distance

The distance at which you place the projector from the screen determines the approximate size of the
image. The image size increases the farther the projector is from the screen, but can vary depending on
the zoom factor, aspect ratio, and other settings.
Refer to the tables in the online Installation Guide to determine approximately how far to place the
projector from the screen based on the size of the projected image. (Conversion figures may have been
rounded up or down.) You can also use the Projection Distance Calculator here (U.S.), here (Canada),
or here (Caribbean).
