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 mounted to 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.
For fixed installations, and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited
space for projector and audience, you can invert the X-400d/X-450d and suspend it from
the ceiling using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.
Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your
Note
projector.
For detailed installation instructions, refer to the documentation provided with the ceiling
mount kit.
The projector can also be inverted and placed in an enclosure above and behind the
viewing area. Install four feet on the inside bottom surface of the enclosure on which the
projector can rest. A variety of materials can be used for this purpose (for example, rubber
crutch tips or turntable feet).
If the X-400d/X-450d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than the
projector, you can tilt the projector at a slight angle by adjusting the ceiling mount.
The projector can be rotated (side-to-side) up to 360 degrees and mounted without it
affecting performance. However, to ensure optimal performance of the lamp, limit the
front-to-back tilt of the projector to ±20 degrees; see Figure 3-11.

If you do this, you may need to shift the image using the on-screen display (OSD) controls,
to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to Primary Lens Adjustments: Focus,
Zoom and Position on page 49.
