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.

space for projector and audience, you can invert the VX-6000d and suspend it from the

ceiling using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.

 

Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit (part number

Note 956-0074-00) designed for your projector. Install the mount kit according to the instructions provided with it.

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 projector can rest. A variety of materials can be used for this purpose (for example, rubber crutch tips or turntable feet).

If the VX-6000d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than the 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 using the OSD controls, to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to Using the On-Screen Menus on page 51.

Proceed as follows to connect the DHD Controller to the VX-6000d, 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.

Route all cables through the cable opening at the bottom rear of the projector (see Figure 2-1).

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

The VX-6000d is designed to receive only video input signals directly from the companion DHD Controller/Scaler/Processor. Connect all signal sources to the appropriate inputs on the rear panel of the DHD Controller. The signal from the DHD Controller is then output to the VX-6000d projector through an HDMI cable.

You CANNOT connect signal sources directly to the VX-6000d.

Note They MUST be routed through the DHD Controller for proper operation.
