Installation

In 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 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.

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).

Installing the Optional CineWide Lens Mount

1. Do not install the CineWide lens yet, only the mounting plate or

Note 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.

(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.

The anamorphic lens mounting kit is partially pre-assembled at the

Note factory – the AutoScope lens motor and lens mounting assemblies are both fully assembled.
