Projector Position And Mounting; Floor Mounting And Leveling - Christie Roadie HD+35K Setup Manual

Section 2: Installation and Setup
To confirm that the cross-connection has not occurred, power only one LPS and projector pair at a time. DO
NOT power multiple LPS and projector heads simultaneously. Before you turn on multiple projectors, you
must confirm each projector head and lamp power supply are connected and operating correctly.

Projector Position and Mounting

Installation type, the available screen, and ambient lighting all affect where the projector should be positioned.
In addition, both throw distance (the distance between the projector and screen) and vertical position (the
height of the projector in relation to the screen) must be determined for every new installation. Both depend on
the screen size and lens type you are using. Ensure the room can accommodate the required location of the
projector for the chosen screen size.
For more information about the Roadie HD+35K lens throw ratio calculations, see the Roadie HD+35K Throw
Distance Technical Document available on the Christie website, PN 020-100395-XX.

2.3.1 Floor Mounting and Leveling

For front projection without suspending, mount the projector on a strong supporting structure or cart. If using a
mobile cart, avoid sudden stops, force, and uneven surfaces that may cause the top-heavy cart to lurch and
overturn.
Make sure your mounting structure is reasonably level, and then adjust one or more projector feet as necessary
to fine-tune.
Adjust the Feet
For installations on a floor or suitable supporting structure, a single projection head should rest firmly on its
feet. To adjust the height and level of the projector, extend or retract the feet by rotating them.
