Question about Mitsubishi X490U Multimedia Projector

Reverse Image My projector is mounted in the ceiling, upside down for frontal projection. When the unit is turned on, the image is upside down. I use Menu / Installation / Image Reverse / Mirror Invert to achieve the correct projected image. However that selection is not remembered by the projector once the unit is turn off and on; the Mirror Invert option needs to be selected upon each power-up. How can I get the unit to project the proper image each time it's turned on?

My image is upside down after I mounted my projector to the ceiling

There are projection mode settings which will allow you to adjust the orientation of the image. Adjusting this setting will rotate the image so that it is not displayed upside down when attaching the projector to the ceiling.

To activate this setting:

Press the Menu button on the projector.
Using the Arrow buttons, select the Image icon on the left side.
On the Image screen under the Projection label, select the icon that represents ceiling mounted projection. Note: You may see both front and rear ceiling mounted projection modes. You may choose which ever best suits your needs.
Press Menu on the projector controls to exit the settings menu.

MY EPSOM PROJECTOR IMAGE IS UPSIDE DOWN. WHAT DO I DO?

Hi, Your projector is probably set for ceiling mount which will project an upside down image because the projector is normally mounted upside down when installed on the ceiling. Go into the menu and select extended then select projection then select front. That should return the image to right side up.

I want to attach a Vivitek 650HD projector to a ceiling mount, but am not sure if I mount it upside down. There doesn't seem to be a "flip" function to flip the picture.

I am 99% sure most projectors are mounted upside down. There should be a way to simply flip the image electronically via the option menu.

In most projector OCD menu (keep in mind you may want to do this before mounting), under the "Installation" or "Initial Installation" section should be an option about Projection mode/method. The options should allow you to pick front, rear, ceiling, or ceiling+rear. This sets the project to know when it will be in front of the screen, behind it, and/or attached to the ceiling (which it knows will be upside down). Then you simply set it to ceiling, mount the projector, and finish your other adjustments as needed.

Mounting the Projector from the Ceiling

Projectors, in general want to project the bottom of the image 1 foot above the lens at a typical range. When mounted upside down, they project the top of the image 1 foot below the center of the lens. If you don't want to turn the projector over, you'll have to change the angle and probably go to the extreme on the keystone correction.

Upside down image

These projectors are designed to be mounted upside down. Think of a projector that is ceiling mounted in a classroom. Change this setting in Menu - Advanced Menu - Setup - Mirror.
