MX818ST/MX819ST
The screen aspect ratio is 4:3 and the projected picture is 4:3
For example, if you are using an 120-inch screen, the recommended projection distance is
1481 mm and the vertical offset is 274 mm.
If your measured projection distance is 2.5 m (2500 mm), the closest match in the "(b)
Distance from screen" column is 2469 mm. Looking across this row shows that a 200''
(about 5.1 m) screen is required.
