Step 2

With an electronic stud finder, locate center of ceiling stud in desired mounting loca- tion. Unscrew ceiling plate (E) from Projector Mounting top plate (A). Use ceiling plate as a template, and mark mounting hole locations. Drill mounting holes to a depth of 3” using a 3/16” drill bit. Mount ceiling plate to stud with 5/16” lag bolts (J).

Step 3

Determine type of installation:

Standard Ceiling Mount

Extended Ceiling Mount

Flush Mount

Wall Mount

Standard Ceiling Mount

Press plastic cover (D) into place over ceiling plate.

Attach pipe drop assembly (C) to ceiling plate with three 5/8” hex screws (H).

Note: Orient the cable management port on the pipe drop assem- bly so that it faces the projector cable drop.

Extended Ceiling Mount

For installations that require a ceiling drop in excess of 18”, standard 1 ½” pipe may be used to extend the standard pipe drop assembly.

Pipe extension should be cut to the required additional length, threaded on both ends, and then attached to the standard pipe drop as- sembly with a pipe coupler (not supplied).

Note: Orient the cable management port on the pipe drop assembly so that it faces the projector cable drop.

Flush Ceiling Mount

For installations with low ceilings, the flush ceiling mount should be used. Note: cable management is not available with the flush mount. Proceed to step 3.

Wall Mount

With the addition of the OmniMount PMD-WM wall mount (sold separately); the PMD can be mounted to a wall instead of the ceiling. This is particularly useful for small confer- ence/classrooms where a ceiling mount is impractical. Refer to the PMD-WM installation instructions.

Step 4

Fig. 1

Gently pull the extension tube of the pipe drop as- sembly down to the required projector height. Rotate extension tube so that adjustment screw holes are visible through the support tube. (Fig. 1)

Secure the pipe position by installing ½” long hex screws (I) into adjustment screw holes. For a cleaner appearance, insert plastic plugs (K) into unused holes on extension tube.

Separate top and bottom projector mounting plates (A&B), by sliding them apart. (Fig. 2)

Fig. 2

Thread ¼” hex head set screw (F) into side of pipe collar, on top projector mounting plate (A). (Fig. 3)

Note: If necessary, screw in tilt knob to gain access to the set screw hole.

Fig. 3

Loosely thread top projector mounting plate (A) onto threaded portion of pipe drop.

Position top projector mounting plate into desired orientation (horizontal or vertical), and then tighten set screw (F). (Fig. 4)

Fig. 4

Thread cable bundle through cable management port at top of pipe assembly, down through the pipe assembly, and then out through the cable management port on the rear of the projector mounting plate. (Fig. 5) (Standard ceiling mount only) Be sure to leave enough cable to reach the mounted projector.

Fig. 5

Flush Ceiling Mount

For flush ceiling mount, loosely thread top projector mounting plate directly onto threaded portion of ceiling plate. Note: Plastic cover is not used for flush mount.
