Mounting the LS-1
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
(Inverted)
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-1 and suspend it from the ceiling
using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.
Install the ceiling mount kit according to the instructions provided with it.
If you are ceiling-mounting an LS-1 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.
Installing the Projector in
an Enclosure
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).
For ceiling installations, use Runco-approved mounting hardware
and M4 screws with a maximum screw depth of 10
mm (0.39 inch).
