Setting Up the Projector
Projector Placement Options
When projecting from the front, you should place the projector
directly in front of the center of the screen, facing the screen squarely.
The center of the lens should be about level with the bottom of the
screen.
If you place the projector below screen level, you may need to tilt it up
by extending the front adjustable foot. Tilting the projector causes the
image to become “keystone” shaped, but you can correct the
distortion (see page 51). The EX5200/EX7200 may be able to correct
the distortion automatically.
You can also install the projector in three other viewing setups: ceiling
projection, rear projection onto a semi-transparent screen, or rear/
ceiling projection.
To project from overhead, you’ll need the optional ceiling mounting
hardware (see page 18). You’ll also need to select the appropriate
Projection
setting in the projector’s Extended menu to orient the
image correctly (see page 75).
