Setting Up
If you do not want to use the distance table, you can use the following equations to 
help determine where to install the projector relative to the screen.
To set up on a table
1. Place the projector on a stable platform located 1.2 to 12 m (4 to 40 ft) in front of 
the screen. Ideally, the platform should be lower than the bottom of the screen.
2. Connect one end of the power cord to the side of the projector and the other end to 
an electrical outlet.
3. When you first turn on the projector, if the image is upside-down or backward, 
you should change a menu setting. Open the on-screen menu (see “To change 
settings using the on-screen menu” on page 37) and select Setup > Projector 
position. Then choose Front Table from the drop-down list—this is the default 
setting.
If you want to permanently install the projector on the ceiling or behind the screen, see 
“Installing the Projector” on page 49. Calculating projection dimensions
distance from lens to screen = A × width of screen 
minimum and maximum distance from screen = B
width of screen = 0.8 × diagonal of screen (for 4:3 screen)
projector lens below bottom of screen = C × width of screen (for 4:3 screen)
A  =  2.0  t o  2. 4
B = 1.2 to 12 m (4 to 40 ft)
C = 0.11 to 0.42

To connect a handheld organizer
1. Be sure the handheld organizer has a VGA-out port. If necessary, install a 
VGA-out accessory card into the organizer.
✎Not all handhelds come with VGA-out ports. For example, the iPAQ Pocket PC 
requires a VGA-out PC Card with 15-pin connector.
2. Connect the VGA cable between the VGA port on the projector

VGA-out PC Card
