When using a zoom lens, exact positioning of the projector is not required as the
image size can be adjusted. However, the projector must be located within the
Throw Distance range imposed by the minimum...

For screen sizes between 40Ó and 500Ó not included in the previous table use the
formula and table below to calculate the throw distance:
Projector Throw Distance = Screen Width (H) x Lens Magnification
Lens Magnification Screen Width Range
LA00236 1.0 0.8m (2.7ft) to 6.1m (20.0ft)
LA00235 1.3 - 1.6 1.1m (3.5ft) to 9.8m (32.0ft).
LA00232 1.9 - 2.4 1.5m (4.8ft) to 14.6m (48.0ft).
LA00237 3.4 - 5.2 5.5m (18.1ft) to 52.8m (173.2ft).

As with vertical positioning, the default horizontal position of the projector is at the
centre of the screen. However, the projector can be mounted to the left or right of
image centre and the ÔLens ShiftÕ function used to centre the image on screen. The
maximum horizontal lens shift range is 25% of the projected image width.
If the lens is shifted both horizontally and vertically, the maximum range in either
direction is reduced due to the rounded off area near the edge of the lens (see below).
