Adjusting the Projection
Angle
There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen
installation, one method may be more suitable than another.
In typical front and rear screen installations, the projector can be placed on a secure and
level surface such as a table or cart. Carts are useful when moving a projector during a
presentation or from site to site. If possible, lock the wheels when it's in position to prevent
it from being moved during a presentation.
The projector can also be inverted and suspended from the ceiling using a specially
designed ceiling mount fixture. This type of mounting is recommended for fixed
installations and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited space for
projector and audience.
Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your
WARNING
projector. Carefully read and follow the installation instructions
provided with the ceiling mount kit. Failure to do so could cause
serious personal injury.
If the VX-40d/-50d/-60d/-80d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than
the projector, you can tilt the projector at an angle by adjusting the ceiling mount.
The projector can be rotated (front-to-back) up to 360 degrees and mounted without it
affecting performance. However, to ensure optimal performance of the lamp, limit the
side-to-side tilt of the projector to ±15 degrees; see Figure 3-7.
Figure 3-7. Mounting Angle Ranges (Front-to-Back and Side-to-Side)
For a floor (non-AutoScope) installation, turn the two adjustable feet on the bottom of the
projector to adjust the projection angle.
If you do either of these things, you may need to make keystone adjustments or vertically
shift the image using the on-screen display (OSD) controls, to compensate. For detailed
instructions, refer to Using the On-Screen Menus on page 57.
