Obtaining A Preferred Projected Image Size - Toshiba TDP TDP-MT700 Owner's Manual

Obtaining a preferred projected image size

The distance from the projector lens to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format each fac-
tors in the projected image size. Separate tables of dimensions for both 16:9 and 4:3 screen ratios
below have been provided to assist you in determining the ideal location for your projector.
1. Determine the aspect ratio of your screen, (16:9 or 4:3)?
2. Select the Screen Size you desire from the 16:9 ratio screen dimension table or 4:3 ratio screen
dimension table below, according to what screen type you have. Install the projector at a dis-
tance from the screen corresponding to between the Min. and Max. Projection Distance values
in the table.
3. Decide the exact height of your projector.
For example, if you are using a 16:9 screen with 80 inches diagonal, you are suggested to place your
projector within a range between 2.34m to 3.18m from the screen. The ideal height of your projec-
tor lens center will be level with the bottom or top side of the screen.
