This section describes how to set up your MultiSync MT840/MT1040/
MT1045 projector and how to connect video and audio sources.

Setting up Your Projector

Your MultiSync MT840/MT1040/MT1045 Projector is simple to set
up and use. But before you get started, you must first:
1. Determine the image size.
2. Set up a screen or select a non-glossy white wall onto which you
can project your image.
Carrying the Projector: Always carry your projector by the handle.
Ensure that the power cable and any other cables connecting to video
sources are disconnected before moving the projector.
When moving the projector or when it is not in use, cover the lens
with the lens cap.

Selecting a Location

The further your projector is from the screen or wall, the larger the
image. The minimum size the image can be is approximately 30"
(0.76 m) measured diagonally when the projector is roughly 4 feet
(1.3 m) from the wall or screen. The largest the image can be is 300"
(7.6 m) when the projector is about 36.8 feet (11.2 m) from the wall
or screen.

Using a Tabletop or Cart

1. Place your projector on a flat level surface at the optimal distance
from the screen or wall so you realize the size image you want.
(Avoid having bright room lighting or sun light directly on the
screen or wall where you'll be projecting the image.)
2. Connect the power cable, remove the lens cap and turn the projec-
tor on. (If no input signal is available, the projector will display a
background image.)
3. Ensure that the projector is square to the screen.

projector to release the Front Adjustable foot.
