Positioning your projector
Table B2: The screen aspect ratio is 4:3 and the projected picture is 15:9
There is 3% tolerance among these numbers in Table A, Table B1, and Table B2 due to optical
component variations.
BenQ recommends that if you intend to permanently install the projector, you should
physically test the projection size and distance using the actual projector in situ before you
permanently install it, so as to make allowance for this projector's optical characteristics. This
will help you determine the exact mounting position so that it best suits your installation
location.
If you place the projector in a different position (to that recommended), you will have to tilt
it down or up, or even turn it slightly left or right to center the picture on the screen. In these
situations, some picture distortion will occur. To correct the distortion, see
picture distortion" on page 37
for details.
