projectors together. Failure to engage the safety lock could cause the projectors to separate and result in
injury or death.
9. Leg Nuts.
Before hoisting, firmly tighten the nuts on the 2 rear stacking legs
the projectors to one another, leave these nuts slightly loose until after the alignment.
10. Repeat steps 1–9 if stacking a third projector.

2.2.5 Alignment Procedure

Stacked projectors must be correctly aligned to one another so that the resulting display is optimized and as
sharp as possible. If you are also hoisting the stack, hoist the stack into place first and then align. Lock all
stacking hardware into place to maintain your alignment.
IMPORTANT!
Figure 2-18.
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 move-
ment of the projector.
Alignment Procedure:
1. Position the first image (fixed projector).
Position the fixed projector (first) image as desired and align the other image(s) to it as described below.
2. Display the grid test pattern.
Display the Grid Test Pattern. To distinguish each image, enable "Red" for 1 display and "Green" for the
other. Refer to
3. Adjust Focus.
Focus the images for both projectors.
4. Coarse Alignment.
Adjust the 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
• If alignment needs fine adjustment, proceed with the next step.
