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. Image size relative to distance from the screen—vp6320 series

Calculating projection distances
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 3:4 screen)
projector lens below bottom of screen = C × width of screen (for 4:3 screen)
vp6310 series
A = 1.7 to 2.0
B = 1 to 10 m (3 to 33 ft)
C = 0.11 to 0.41 vp6320 series
A = 1.8 to 2.1
B = 1 to 10 m (3 to 33 ft)
C = 0.11 to 0.43

Connecting power
1.Place the projector on a stable platform located 1 to 10 m (3 to 33 ft) in front of the screen.

2. Connect one end of the power cord to the back of the projector 
1 and the other end to a 
grounded electrical outlet 
2.

TIP: If the computer display does not appear on  the projector, you might have to press a 
combination of keys on the computer to turn  on the computer’s VGA output. For example, on 
some computers you must press F

monitor displays the signal connected to the VGA-in port—even if the projector is turned off or 
showing a different input.
