Setup & Connections
Place the projector at a distance from the screen that allows images to
be projected onto the screen by referring to “Adjusting the Projection
Distance” on pages 21 and 22.
Placement of the Projected Image Using the Keystone Correction
: Screen area
1Project the test pattern of the Keystone correction function onto the
screen. Rotate the Focus ring until the image on the screen becomes
clear. (See page 16.)
2Change the projection angle using the Swivel Stand to properly
project images onto the screen. (See page 17).
3Align the edge of the screen closest to the projector with the test
pattern by adjusting the zoom and the Swivel Stand. (See pages 16
and 17.)
4Adjust the Keystone function so that the size of the projected image
matches the screen size. (See page 19.)
5Align the image on the screen by adjusting the zoom function and the
Swivel Stand.
6Adjust the focus so that the projected image is in focus at the center
of the screen. (See page 16.)
•The aspect ratio of the projected image shifts slightly when the lens
shift is at a position other than the top position.
•The aspect ratio of the projected image also shifts slightly when the “H
Keystone” and “V Keystone” functions are adjusted simultaneously.

Setup & Connections
Adjusting the Projection Distance
Upper and Lower Lens Shift Position
• This projector is equipped with a lens shift function that lets you adjust the projection height.
• Adjust it to match the setup configuration.
• The screen can be moved maximum the length of one screen vertically using the lens shift.
• Optimal image quality is produced with the projector positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat and level. Tilting or angling
the projector will reduce the effectiveness of the lens shift function.

Setup & Connections
Rear Projection
•Place a translucent screen between the projector and
the audience.
•Use the projector’s menu screen to reverse the
projected image. (See page 42 for use of this
function.)
•Optimal image quality can be achieved when the projector
is positioned perpendicular to the screen with all feet flat
and leveled.
Projection Using a Mirror
•When the distance between the projector and a
screen is not sufficient for normal rear projection, you
can use a mirror to reflect the image onto the screen.
•Place a mirror (normal flat type) in front of the lens.
•Project the normal image onto the mirror.
•The image reflected from the mirror is projected onto
the translucent screen.
CAUTION
•When using a mirror, be sure to carefully position both the
projector and the mirror so the light does not shine into the
eyes of the audience.
•It is recommended that you use the optional Sharp
ceiling-mount bracket for this installation.
•Before mounting the projector, remove the Swivel
Stand. (See page 17 for removing and attaching the
Swivel Stand.)
•Before mounting the projector, contact your nearest
Sharp Authorized Service Center or Dealer to obtain
the recommended ceiling-mount bracket
(commercially available). (AN-CM260 ceiling-mount
bracket, AN-EP101B extension tube for AN-CM260.)
•When the projector is in the inverted position, use the
upper edge of the screen as the base line.
•Use the projector’s menu screen to select the
appropriate projection mode. (See page 42 for use
of this function.)
