English - 15Screen RequirementsThis Projector is used to project the image onto flat screens. However, the brightness and viewable range will varydepending on which type of screen is used.When selecting a screen, check the characteristics of the screen to ensure that it is suitable for the intended place ofuse. Screen characteristics (reference)Screen type Screen characteristicsWhite screenThis type of screen can be seen from anywhere,so there are no limits on the viewing position.However, the surrounding walls should bedarkened as in a movie theater, otherwise aclear picture cannot be obtained.Silver screenThis type of screen gives a picture which is 2-4times brighter than a white screen. A variety oftypes are available from different manufacturers,and each type has different brightnesscharacteristics. Some also have restrictions onthe possible range of viewing positions.* Care should be taken with screens that havea high gain, as these types of screen cancause color distortion at the left and rightedges.* This type of screen is recommended when theProjector is suspended from the ceiling.Beaded screenThis type of screen is similar to the silverscreen, except that no color distortion occursat the left and right edges. Moreover, most ofthe light is reflected at the same angle as theangle of incidence.* This type of screen is recommended whenthe Projector is placed on the floor.Flexibletranslucent screenThis type of screen is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride).It has the same characteristics as silver screens, but sometimes it can have hotspots.This type of screen is made of acrylic plastic.It is extremely durable and has excellent optical characteristics. It performs in thesame way as silver screens.Rigid-typetranslucent screenReflective screensTranslucent screensWhite screenSilver screenMaximum brightnessBeaded screenMaximumbrightnessBrightness decline• A Polarized screen can not be use for this LCD Projector, because its polarizing effect will add to the polarizationalready designed into the Projector (to increase its efficiency). The resulting image will not appear in its truecolor.Note
English - 16Standard Setting-up PositionsThe screen should be positioned so that it is not directly touched by sunlight or room light as this will wash out the colorsof the picture making it hard to see. When possible, close all blinds, curtains, etc. and dim the lights. Also, the LCDProjector should be at a 90° angle to the screen for the best picture results. To determine the distance for the desiredsize, please refer to the LCD Projector/Screen Relationship Chart below.(By using the tele zoom feature, you can increase the throw distance.)•Your LCD Projector isequipped with an imagereverse feature.
