Note
f
The projector has a built-in angle sensor. When projecting in front of the screen, if set the [PROJECTOR SETUP] menu
→ [PROJECTION METHOD] → [AUTO], the projector’s posture will be detected automatically. When projecting from
rear, please set the [PROJECTION METHOD] to [REAR/DESK] or [REAR/CEILING].
rAngle sensor
The range of installation posture detected by the projector’s built-in angle sensor is as follows.
In case of [AUTO], when the projector is placed with the top side upward within ±30° from the horizontal plane, it
will switch to [FRONT/DESK] automatically; when the projector is placed with the top side downward within ±30°
from the horizontal plane, it will switch to [FRONT/CEILING] automatically. Although it is detected as [FRONT/
DESK] even when it exceeds ±30° with respect to the horizontal plane, do not use such installation posture in this
range.
Attention
f
The angle sensor cannot detect whether it is the “Installation prohibited posture” in the above picture. Please do not use the projector tilted
at an angle that exceeds ±30° from the vertical plane. It may reduce the life of the components. (
