Installation

There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen installation, one method may be more suitable than another.

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.

Mounting the LS-HB

Floor Mounting (Upright)

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 LS-HB and suspend it from the

(Inverted)

ceiling using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.

 

 

Note

For ceiling installations, use Runco-approved mounting hardware

 

 

and M4 screws with a maximum screw depth of 10 mm (0.39 inch).

 

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

 

If you are ceiling-mounting an LS-HB with a movable anamorphic lens: Perform

 

these additional steps to secure the plate Security Hooks to the ceiling (refer to Attaching

 

the Security Hooks on page 25).

 

1.

Install ceiling hooks (not supplied) into the ceiling directly above the Plate Hooks. The

 

 

ceiling hooks should be small enough to accept a Chain End but strong enough when

 

 

installed to each support 40 pounds or more.

 

2.

Attach a Chain End to the Chain and then connect it to one of the ceiling hooks.

 

3.

Cut the Chain to a length equal to or slightly greater than the distance between the

 

 

ceiling hook and the corresponding Plate Hook.

 

4.

Attach a Chain End to the other end of the Chain. Then, use the Chain to connect the

 

 

ceiling hook and the Plate Hook.

 

5.

Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for the other ceilling hook/Plate Hook pair.

 

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

an Enclosure

projector can rest. A variety of materials can be used for this purpose (for example, rubber

 

crutch tips or turntable feet).
