Position The Projector; Optional) Install Projector On Rack Stand - Christie CP2000-M Setup Manual

Section 3: Installation & Setup
3.1

POSITION THE PROJECTOR

2 people are required to safely lift and position the projector.
Auto LampLOC™ must be run any time the projector is physically moved
1. Ensure the projector at an appropriate throw distance (projector-to-screen distance) and vertical
position. Ideally, center the projector with the theatre screen. If competing for space with an
already present film projector, aim the projector slightly off-center (Figure 3-1). This slightly
increases side keystoning, but minimizes the horizontal lens offset required. NOTE: Unlike film
projectors, it is best to keep the projector as parallel to the screen as possible, even if significantly
above the screen center. When a short throw distance combines with a very wide screen you may
have to forfeit some aim and stay more parallel to the screen. Use of lens offset can allow for an
undistorted image if the projector is perpendicular to the screen.
2. Once you have completed the remaining installation steps and the projector is up-and-running,
adjust precise image geometry and placement, as described in
3.2

(OPTIONAL) INSTALL PROJECTOR ON RACK STAND

A rack stand (108-272101-xx or 108-282101-xx) and foot lock brackets (119-100101-xx) are available
for use with the projector. For installation instructions, refer to the Rack Stand Installation Instruction
Sheet (020-100060-xx). NOTES: 1) When using the rack stand with the CP2000-M/MR, the foot lock
brackets are a mandatory safety measure to prevent the projector from tipping. 2) The feet on the rack
stand are used for leveling ONLY and are not for tilting the projector. To prevent tipping ensure the
required accessories supplied by Christie are used.
