Appendix A: Projector 
Installation
This appendix provides guidelines on installing the projector in a 
permanent location, such as a theater or conference room.
Installation Guidelines
The projector can be installed for four different viewing setups: front 
projection, ceiling mounting, rear projection onto a semi-transparent 
screen, or rear/ceiling projection, as shown: 
Front projection Rear projection
Rear/ceiling projection
Front/ceiling projection 
						

							112Appendix A: Projector InstallationTo project from overhead, you’ll need the optional ceiling mounting 
hardware; see page 12 for ordering information. You’ll also need to 
select 
Front/Ceiling or Rear/Ceiling in the projector’s Extended 
menu to flip the image upside-down. To project from the rear, select 
Rear (see page 59).
If you’re mounting the projector on the ceiling and you place it above 
screen level, you’ll have to tilt it down to position the image on-screen. 
This causes the image to lose its square shape. You can then correct 
the distortion by using the 
Keystone function in the projector’s 
menu system (see page 56) or by using the   or   buttons on the 
projector’s control panel.
If you place the projector so that the lens is level with the bottom of 
the screen, the image will be square and you won’t have to adjust it. If 
you place the lens lower than the bottom of the screen, you may have 
to tilt the projector upward if you want to fill the whole screen with 
the image. 
If you want to be able to control the projector’s settings from a remote 
computer, see Chapter 5.
warning
When installing or 
adjusting the ceiling 
mount, do not use 
adhesives to prevent the 
screws from loosening and 
do not use any type of oil or 
lubricant. These may cause 
the projector casing to 
crack and the projector 
may fall, causing serious 
injury and serious damage 
to the projector. 
						

							Appendix A: Projector Installation113
Installing the Rear Cable Cover and 
Lock
If you’re mounting the projector on the ceiling, you can install the 
rear cable cover to enhance the cosmetic appearance of the system.
To install the cover, insert the cover’s tabs into the slots as shown, 
then attach it with the two included screws.
For security purposes, you can also install a lock to ensure that the 
cable cover is not removed.

Compatible Video Formats
The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM international video 
standards, as well as the monitor display formats listed below.
To project images output from a computer, the computer’s video card 
must be set at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) that’s compatible with 
the projector; see the following table for compatible formats. As 
noted  below, some images are automatically resized to display in 
the projector’s “native” format (XGA). In addition, the frequencies 
of some computers may not allow images to display correctly; see 
your computer’s documentation for details.
