STEP TWO - MOUNT THE MOTORIZED TRANSPORT:

  

Position the flat side of the ATH 

Transport against the bottom side (projector side) of the Attachment Plate so that the Transport 
connector jacks are toward the projector 
and the center “M” hole in the Attachment 
Plate is aligned with the front recessed 
transport hole.  Insert the #10-32 x 5/8 
pivot screw up through the Transport and 
Attachment Plate and loosely complete 
the assembly with the corresponding 
washer, lock washer and nut.  Now 
loosely insert the four small 3/8” screws 
through the four remaining “M” slots 
through the top of the Attachment Plate 
and down into the Transport.

STEP THREE – PREP THE RPA ATTACHMENT SCREWS:

  Insert a black socket 

head screw through a silver 3/8” spacer into each of the six threaded holes in the top of 
the Attachment Plate.  Insert these screws only enough to reach through to the bottom 
of the Attachment Plate. 

 

STEP FOUR – MOUNT THE PROJECTION ASSEMBLY

:  

Ensure that the RPA mount 

head is secure and oriented properly relative to the Attachment Plate RPA screws so that the 
mounted projector will face the screen.  Use two people to lift and position the projection 
assembly so that the heads of each of the Attachment Plate RPA screws rest within the 
matching final location of the RPA mount head.  At this point the silver 3/8” spacers should be 
between the Attachment Plate and the RPA mount head.  The projection assembly may be 
lowered to allow the RPA screw heads to rest on the RPA mount.  However, one person should 
continue to support the projection assembly while a second person uses the gold hex key 
wrench to tighten the RPA screws. 
 
When tightening the RPA screws, do so in a pattern of incrementally driving each screw a little 
more into the attachment plate so that at any time the projection assembly is resting on as many 
screw heads as possible until all are tightened. 
 

STEP FIVE – INSTALL THE LENS

:  

Refer to the Transport user manual for additional 

instructions to install the lens at this time.  REMEMBER TO COMPLETE THE LAST STEP 
BELOW.   

 

STEP SIX – FINAL ADJUSTMENTS:   

 
 a. 

Turn the projector on with the anamorphic lens out of the projector beam.  Set 

the horizontal lens shift to neutral and then adjust the RPA mount so that the 16:9 image is in 
the exact center of and square to the screen with a similar amount of image slightly over the top 
and bottom screen borders.  If the projector lens is not in the exact horizontal center of the 
screen you may need to use a little horizontal lens shift for this purpose. 
 

 b.

 

Bring the anamorphic lens into the beam.  Adjust the vertical position and tilt of 

the lens so that the projector beam is passing through the center of the lens and so any residual 
pincushion distortion is about the same at the top and bottom of the image.  This will typically
