4.1 Positioning the SP2K-C
WARNING: The installation of the projector requires at least 4 persons.
General guide lines
• Use a solid pedestal to put the SP2K-C projector on. Ensure that the pedestal can handle the weight of the
projector and that all feet of the projector are captured.
• The pedestal should be placed in front of the port window wall in a manner that the projector lens holder
cover is at a minimum distance of 20 centimeters from the port window.
Take into account that the dimensions of the SP2K-C projector with B-lens holder vary slightly from
the projector with C-lens holder. For correct measurement, take into account the specifications of
your projector variant.

Projector centering
1. If the projector is standalone in front of the port window, center the projector with the theatre screen
(reference A
Image 4–2 ).
2. If a film projector is already present (projector will be off-center), try to optimize aim (reference B Image 4–
2 ).
Note: Unlike film projectors, it is best to keep the projector lens surface as parallel to the screen
as possible, even if it is significantly above the screen center.
The off-center position slightly increase side keystone, but will minimize horizontal lens offset required.
