Positioning your projector

Choosing a location

Your projector is designed to be installed in one of four possible installation locations: 

1.

Floor in front of screen; 

2.

Ceiling in front of screen; 

3.

Floor at rear of screen;

4.

Ceiling at rear of screen.

Your room layout or personal preference will dictate which installation location you select. 
Take into consideration the size and position of your screen, the location of a suitable power 
outlet, as well as the location and distance between the projector and the rest of your 
equipment.

I. Floor front

Select this location with the projector placed near the 
floor in front of the screen. This is the most common 
way to position the projector for quick setup and 
portability.

II. Ceiling front

Select this location with the projector suspended 
upside-down from the ceiling in front of the screen.

Purchase the BenQ Projector Ceiling Mounting Kit 
from your dealer to mount your projector on the 
ceiling.

Set  

in 

the 

Source > Mirror menu after you turn 

the projector on.

III. Floor rear

Select this location with the projector placed near the 
floor behind the screen.

Note that a special rear projection screen is required.

Set 

in the Source > Mirror menu after you turn 

the projector on.

IV. Ceiling rear

Select this location with the projector suspended 
upside-down from the ceiling behind the screen.

Note that a special rear projection screen and the 
BenQ Projector Ceiling Mounting Kit are required 
for this installation location.

Set 

in the Source > Mirror menu after you turn 

the projector on.
