to adjust the projection height (move the image along the wall) 
without moving the projector, while still maintaining a perfectly 
square image. Turn the lens shift knob on the side of the projector 
to make this adjustment (Figure 4).

jector ’s lens (Figure 5) to parallel with the lens (Figure 6).

Setting up the Projector
The following tables give the lens shift values for desktop and 
ceiling-mounted setups for various image sizes. The lower lens 
shift position represents the highest the projector can be above 
the bottom of the screen; the upper lens shift position represents 
the lowest the projector can be below the bottom of the screen.
When the projector is ceiling mounted, use the upper edge of the 
screen as the base line.
