Other Considerations Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation:
• Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the projector away
from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause drifts in
the projector circuitry, which may affect performance.
• Keep the projector away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy such as motors
and transformers. Common sources of these include slide projectors, speakers, power
amplifiers and elevators.

Mounting the Vision 30
There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen
installation, one method may be more suitable than another.
Floor Mounting (Upright) In typical front and rear screen installations, the projector can be placed upright 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.
Ceiling Mounting (Inverted) 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 Vision 30 and suspend it from the ceiling
using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.
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).
Adjusting the Projector
Height or Projection Angle
If the screen is significantly higher or lower than the projector, you can also tilt the projector
at a slight angle. In a ceiling installation, you do this by adjusting the ceiling mount.
For a floor installation, turn the four adjustable
feet on the bottom of the projector to adjust
the projector height and/or projection angle.
If you do this, 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 34.
