Ideally, the projector should be positioned perpendicular to the screen. The lens center should be aligned with either the top or bottom edge of the screen areas. The lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. See Figure 3-3. Ceiling Installation Ceiling Height Projection Distance x Lens Center Lens Center Scre
