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

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 D-73d and suspend it from the

 

ceiling using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.

 

Note

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

 

projector.

 

Install the ceiling mount kit according to the instructions provided with the kit.

Installing the Projector in

The projector can also be inverted and placed in an enclosure above and behind the

an Enclosure

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 Projection

If the D-73d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than the projector, you

Angle

can tilt the projector at a slight angle by adjusting the ceiling mount. If you do this, you may

need to use the mechanical lens shift and/or OSD image alignment controls, to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to Power-Up Sequence and Optical Alignment Procedure on page 51.

The projector can be tilted front-to-back up to 20 degrees and mounted without it affecting performance. However, to ensure proper operation when displaying 3D content, avoid mounting the projector at a side-to-side angle; see Figure 3-11.
