Installation

3.5

There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen

Mounting the

installation, one method may be more suitable than another.

VX-4000d/VX-5000d

 

 

Floor Mounting

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

The projector can also be inverted and suspended from the ceiling using a specially

 

designed ceiling mount fixture. This type of mounting is recommended for fixed

 

installations and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited space for

 

projector and audience.

Adjusting the Projection

If the VX-4000d/VX-5000d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than the

Angle

projector, you can tilt the projector at a slight angle by adjusting the ceiling mount.

 

If you do this, you may need to shift the image or apply keystone correction using the OSD

 

controls, to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to Using the On-Screen Menus

 

on page 39.

 

 

Note

Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your

 

projector.

Connections to the VX-4000d/VX-5000d and DHD Controller

Connector Panel Access

Connecting the DHD

Controller to the

VX-4000d/VX-5000d

Proceed as follows to connect the DHD Controller to the VX-4000d/VX-5000d, your video sources, external controller(s) -- if present -- and AC power.

When connecting your equipment:

Turn off all equipment before making any connections.

Use the correct signal cables for each source.

Ensure that the cables are securely connected. Tighten the thumbscrews on connectors that have them.

You can access the connector panel through the cable opening at the bottom rear of the projector (see Figure 2-1or Figure 2-2).

The VX-4000d/VX-5000d is designed to receive only video input signals directly from the companion DHD Controller/Processor. All signal sources should be connected to the appropriate inputs on the rear panel of the DHD. The signal from the DHD is then output to the VX-4000d/VX-5000d projector through an RGB or DVI cable.

You CANNOT connect signal sources directly to the

Note VX-4000d/VX-5000d. They MUST be routed through the DHD Controller for proper operation.
