    STEP-1 Setting of the Operation Configuration ■ Optical axis setting Set the optical axis. Confirm the position of optical axis and set it by PIXCEL figure (Number of pixels). X figure : Set the horizontal position on the screen. (adjustable range is 0 - 1024) Y figure : Set the vertical position on the screen.
  • Page 15: View Angle Setting

    STEP-1 Setting of the Operation Configuration ■ View angle setting Set the view angle of the projector. The adjustable unit is 0.01 degree. (Example: 16 degree is input as 1600) The adjustable range is 2 - 150 degree. When linearity of the vertical lines in the grid are not correct, in other words, the dis- tance between vertical lines are not equal, check if the view angle is set correctly.
