Mounting the Vision 15
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 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.
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 15 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
When the Vision 15 is installed upright, you can adjust the projector height or projection
angle by turning the four adjustable feet on the bottom of the projector; see
Figure 3-8. This
is useful for correcting the angle of projection when the projector is placed on an uneven
surface or when the screen is at an angle. You can tilt the projector up to five (5) degrees up
or down by adjusting the feet.
The feet are connected to threaded bolts; turn them clockwise to raise the projector or
counterclockwise to lower it.
Figure 3-8. Adjusting the Feet
Use only the Vidikron-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your
projector. Install the mount kit according to the instructions provided
with it.
Note
Tilting the projector may cause keystone distortion. To correct this, refer
to
Installation on page 45.
