    Figure 2-4 Audience Coverage with a Flat Screen NOTE: Roadie HD+35K lenses are designed primarily for use with flat screens. However, the projector's depth-of- field range allows the lens to be focused on curved screens. While focus remains sharp in the corners, there may be significant pincushion distortion at the top of the screen.

  • Page 24: Screen Size

    2.3.3 Screen Size The maximum screen width for a Roadie HD+35K projector is 45 meters (150 ft). Choose a screen size appropriate for the projector lens and application. If you are using the projector to display text, the image size must allow the audience to read the text easily.
  • Page 25 If you cannot raise or lower the image enough by using mechanical vertical offset, open the Size and Position menu and adjust the V-Position value (see Section 6.5 Image Settings Menu).

    The image can be offset horizontally (shifted left or right of lens center) by using the projector keypad or the remote. You can move images on the Roadie HD+35K a distance of up to ±35% of the image width. The amount of horizontal offset available depends on the lens installed and if the image has already been vertically offset.
