I've just ceiling mounted my Sony G70 after moving to a new house and my red tube is WAY off. Too far off to adjust by the controls. How do I adjust the tube vertically? Left to right is no problem but I can't seem to find a way to move the tube up.

The center zone, the center square. I usually set all H and V adjustments to 128, then correct the tubes to suit, but try and use as little as possible.

It's normal for the V shift on one or more tubes to be down to say 110 and up to say 160, no worries there.

I take it to max and it's still way short of matching up. Is there a way to move the tube up and down as there is to move it left to right by loosening screws and manually adjusting?

No, wrong adjustment on your part. You need to press the 'zone' button, which is the coarse V adjustment whereas the R and B shift buttons on the remote are the fine adjustments.

You are my projector God! Thumbs Up That did the trick. I had it dialed in nice at the old house, but I did that 3 yrs ago and forgot everything. Thanks again! I'll try to put pics up of my theater room when I'm somewhat finished, which should be in a couple weeks. Maybe I'll be able to figure out that Harmony control I got from you by then too! lol
