C3X 1080 App.3 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (VERTICAL SHIFT) To install the HT3000 HOST system correctly place the projector so that the projected image completely fills the screen. Ideally, to avoid image distortion, the projector should be positioned perfectly perpendicular to the projection screen, as shown in the figure below.
C3X1080 VERTICAL SHIFT (ASSUMING +50% OFFSET) If it is not possible to position the projector perdicular to the projection screen (with the centre of the lens in line with the centre of the screen) you can use the mechanical shift to move the projected image either above or below the centre of the projection lens.
