Hello, I picked up a projector today with the mounting system to put it on the ceiling, but I just want to place it on a table. The problem is that the image is upside down. I read the manual and found nothing in it, nor on the internet or even in the settings. If anyone has this model or has an idea of how to flip the image the right way, it would really help me. Thanks in advance for your responses.

    Hello
    On page 90 of the manual:
    Projector orientation selection
    [ORIENTATION]This function allows you to orient the image according to the installation mode of the projector. The options are: Desk forward, Ceiling backward, Desk backward and Ceiling forward

    The manual: http://www.support.nec-display.com/dl_service/data/manual/french/UM330X_manual_FRA.pdf

    It is very difficult to catch a black cat in a dark room.
    Especially when it is not there...

      Thank you for the response. I did as instructed on this page and the image is correctly oriented, but it's still on the ceiling and not on the projection screen. I've tried adjusting the zoom, but it's still on the ceiling. The only solution I've found would be to tilt the projector down, but that's not very practical.

    For me, you need to select "Forward Office," then see the instructions on page 103
    If I believe the said notice, the screen must be very close to the projector.
    Positioned 85cm from the screen, the top of the projected image is already over 2 meters

        A wall is at least 2.50 meters; the key is to place the projector very close to the wall, even if it means putting it on the floor.
        30 cm from the wall, you should have an image with a diagonal of over 2 meters.

        Yes, I put it on the ground near the wall, but the image goes beyond the wall and onto the ceiling.

        Well... it needs to be put even closer to the wall.
