Vertical and horizontal position

The correct vertical and horizontal position of the projector in relation to the screen
depends on the lens type and the screen size. Ideally, the projector should be
positioned perpendicular to the screen. This way, the image will appear rectangular
instead of keystoned (trapezoidal).
The vertical position of the image can be offset – that is moved above or below the
optical axis (lens center) by adjusting the fully motorized lens mount with the keypad.
The amount of vertical offset available depends directly on the lens installed in the
projector and can be slightly limited if horizontal offset has been applied. Vertical
offset can also be expressed as the percent of half the image height OR the number of
pixels of shift from lens center. Refer to Figure 2.2 for some illustrated examples of
vertical offset.
Table 2.1 along with Figure 2.3 show the maximum vertical offset of a lens or
alternatively, how much of your projected image will appear above or below lens
center if the maximum vertical offset is applied using that lens.
