12 Playing Movies
MovieMate doesn’t have to be directly in front of the screen
or wall, but it has to face straight ahead (at a 90-degree angle
to the surface). If the image is too low, too high, or off to
the side, you can use the quick image adjustment dials to
adjust the position (see page 15).
The further you place MovieMate from the screen or wall,
the larger the image will be.
The following table lists the distances required for various
image sizes (measured diagonally). Note that the zoom
adjustment also affects image size.
