Mounting the Vision 70
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 tha
t want the projector out of sight or have a limited
space for projector and audience, you can invert the Vision 70 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
a
rea. 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 high
er 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 42.
Use only the Vidikron-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your
projector. Install the mount kit according to the instructions provided
with it.
Tighten all screws securely, but do not
over-tighten them. This is
particularly important when ceiling-mounting a Vision 70/CineWide
with AutoScope, because the anamorphic lens and lens motor shift the
center of gravity toward the front of the projector.
