b.Secure the power supply within the support end of the boom arm. To do this, pass the tie wraps through the holes on one side of the arm and then around the power supply (see figure 7). Tighten the tie wraps. The cables should then be easily and safely routed to the electrical outlet and to the switcher.

c.Extend the boom arm to the appropriate projector throw distance and secure in the applicable slots with the four supplied (¼-20 x ½ inch) screws and washers.

NOTE: Do not overtighten the screws.

d.Loosen the set screw (located in the lower hole on the boom arm end), and screw the threaded pipe up into the end of the arm. A minimum of three turns is needed to safely secure the pipe in place. Lock it in place by tightening down the set screw.

NOTE: The upper hole on the boom arm end is for attaching an optional seismic/support wire.

e.Run the VGA and composite video cables from the switcher to the projector through the boom arm so that they exit down the projector mounting pipe.

NOTE: Provide sufficient cable slack within the boom arm to allow for future arm length adjustment.

f.Referring to the UPB 25 User Manual, screw the UPB 25 upper mounting plate onto the threaded pipe and attach the projector to the UPB 25 projector bracket.

g.Attach the projector bracket (with projector installed) onto the UPB 25 mounting plate and secure.

h.Connect the output cables from the switcher, any MLC control cables, and the power cable to the projector.

CAUTION: Electrical Shock that may result in injury. Do not thread the projector power cable through the boom arm or mounting pipe. Threading it through the arm or the pipe violates national electrical regulations.
