Setting Up the Projector
This chapter tells you how to set up the projector and connect it to a 
computer or video source. You can connect up to four devices

16Setting Up the Projector
Positioning the Projector
Before connecting the projector, you need to decide where to place it. 
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re using, you 
can place it on a table in front of the screen. This lets you stand in the 
front of the room, face the audience, and control the projector.
Ideally, you should place the projector between 26 to 48 inches (66 to 
122 cm) from the screen. Use the illustrations and tables below to 
help you determine...

■If you’re projecting from a table or other flat surface, make sure

under the projector. Do not set the projector next to loose papers 
that could block the vents on the sides of the projector. 
■Make sure the projector is within 14.8 feet (4.5 m) of a grounded 
electrical outlet or extension cord.
