PRELIMINARY
Folded OpticsIn rear screen applications where space behind the projector is limited, a mirror may be
used to fold the optical path, as shown in Figure 3-6. The position of the projector and
mirror must be accurately set. If you are considering this type of installation, contact your
dealer for assistance.

Other ConsiderationsOther considerations and tips that can help improve your installation:
• Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the projector
away from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause
drifts in the projector circuitry, which may affect performance.
• Keep the projector away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy such as
motors and transformers. Common sources of these include slide projectors,
speakers, power amplifiers and elevators.
3.4 Installing the Optional CineWide Lens Mount
If you are installing a VX-6000d with the optional CineWide or CineWide with AutoScope
system, proceed as follows to install the anamorphic lens mounting assembly (stationary
base plate or AutoScope lens motor).
Remove Projector Front
Feet (CineWide with
AutoScope)
(Skip this step if you are installing a fixed CineWide anamorphic lens.)
Place the projector upside down on a blanket or other soft surface. Loosen and remove
the two front feet on the projector.
Install Anamorphic Lens
Motor (CineWide with
AutoScope) or Base Plate
(fixed CineWide)
Screen
Mirror
1. Do not install the CineWide lens yet, only the mounting plate or
lens motor. You will install the CineWide lens after you install the
projector and adjust the primary lens.
2. Some of the following steps are necessary only for CineWide
with AutoScope installations.
Note
The anamorphic lens mounting kit is partially pre-assembled at the
factory – the AutoScope lens motor and lens mounting assemblies
are both fully assembled.
