If you place the projector between the top and bottom of the
screen, you can use the Lens Shift to raise or lower the image

If you place the projector below screen level, you'll have to tilt
it up by extending its feet. This causes the image to lose its
square shape, but you can correct the distortion by pressing

You can use an external monitor to display images from any
connected computer or video source. This lets you view your
presentation close-up, as well as on the projection screen.
Note: Some LCD monitors may not be able to display the image
correctly. If you have trouble displaying the image, connect a
