How do I set up my product?
-
Follow the instructions in these sections to set up your projector for use.
Projector Placement
You can place the projector on almost any flat surface to project an image.
You can also install the projector in a ceiling or wall mount if you want to use it in a fixed location.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
- Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.
- Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or next to anything that could block the vents.
- Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
Projector Setup and Installation Options
You can set up or install your projector in the following ways:
Front
Rear
Front ceiling
Rear ceiling
Wall-mounted
Wherever you set up the projector, make sure to position it squarely in front of the screen, not at an angle.
If you project from the ceiling or wall, or from the rear, be sure to select the correct Projection option in the projector's menu system.
Note: Interactivity is not available when using rear or rear ceiling projection.
