Before You Begin
Always align to the fixed projector. In floor-mount or table-mount (i.e., non-
hoisted) stacks, you will align to the bottom projector as shown in drawings
below. In hoisted stacks, align to the top projector.
Leg nuts must be loosened before alignment, otherwise the stacking mounts will
not turn and allow movement of the projector.
STEP 1 '
Position the first image (fixed projector)
Position the fixed projector's image as desired and align the other image(s) to it as
described below.
STEP 2 '
Display the grid test pattern
To distinguish each image, enable "Red" for one display and "Green" for the other.
See 3.3, Using the Keypads if you need help enabling colors.
STEP 3 '
Adjust zoom and focus
Minimize each projector's zoom and images are in focus.
STEP 4 '
Try aligning the two grid patterns
Adjust zoom and offset on the top projector to precisely move its test pattern display
on to the bottom test pattern. When properly aligned, all red/green grid lines in the
combined image will turn yellow.
•
If all lines are well-aligned, skip to STEP 7 to lock all stacking mounts.
•
If alignment needs improvement, proceed with the next step.
STEP 5 '
Align the center lines of the grid
Turn the (2) rear stacking mount
wheels to move the top projector
as necessary for well-aligned
center lines. Use a screwdriver in
the holes around the rim of each
adjusting wheel for better leverage
and control.
HOW TO MOVE THE IMAGE:
Turned independently, each
stacking mount acts as a pivot
point for the opposite edge of the
display (see right). For example,
turn the right mount to tilt the left
portion of the image up or down,
and turn the left mount to tilt the
right portion of the image up or
down. Turn together to raise or
lower the top image like an offset adjustment, or turn the front stacker.
IF THE CENTER LINES FORM AN "X":
are slightly tilted in relation to one another. Turn one mount to raise one side, and/or
turn the other mount to lower other side. See Figure 2.15.
