HP xp8000 series digital projector - (English) Reference Guide

18 Reference Guide
Installation and Setup
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.
If your installation does not fall within these ranges, an add-on lens might be required.
See “To install an add-on lens” on page 57.
To install on a table
1. Place the projector on a stable platform located 1.5 to 14 m (5 to 46 ft) in front of
the screen.
2. Connect all necessary cables to the projector.
3. If necessary, set the projector to match the installation. Open the on-screen menu
and select setup > Projector position. Then choose Front Table from the
drop-down list.
To install on the ceiling
Your ceiling mount might differ from the one shown in the following images.
However, the installation steps are basically the same.
HP recommends that a qualified carpenter or electrician install the ceiling mount.
Calculating projection dimensions
distance from screen = A × width of screen
min and max distance from screen = B
width of screen = 0.8 × diagonal of screen (for 4:3 screen)
projector lens at same level as bottom or top of screen
A = 1.98 to 2.38
B = 1.5 to 14 m (5 to 46 ft)
