Installation
➤ Vertical and Horizontal 
PositionProper placement of the projector relative to the screen will yield a rectangular, perfectly-
centered image that completely fills the screen. 
Ideally, the projector should be positioned perpendicular to the screen and in such a 
way that the lens center is aligned with either the top or bottom edge of the screen 
area, and centered horizontally.  
The top of the projected image is even with the lens center when the projector is 
inverted (ceiling-mounted). Likewise, the bottom of the projected image is aligned with 
the lens center when the projector is upright (as in a floor installation).

If it is not possible to align the projector and screen as shown above, you can tilt the 
projector at a slight angle. In a ceiling installation, you do this by adjusting the ceiling 
mount. For a floor installation, turn the four adjustable feet on the bottom of the projector 
to adjust the projector height and/or projection angle.
If you do this, you may need to make keystone adjustments or vertically shift the image 
using the on-screen display (OSD) controls, to compensate. For detailed instructions, 
refer to  On-Screen Display Menus , later in this manual.

Installation
Mounting ➤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.
CEILING MOUNT—The projector can also be inverted and suspended from the ceiling 
using a specially designed ceiling mount fixture. This type of mounting is recommended 
for fixed installations and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited 
space for projector and audience.
 
Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your projector. 
In rear screen applications where space behind the projector is limited, a mirror may 
be used to fold the optical path, as shown below. The position of the projector and 
mirror must be accurately set. If you are considering this type of installation, contact 
your dealer for assistance.
