MOUNTING THE MTH1 TRANSPORT
Installing without AKPro attachment kits.
The MTH1 may be mounted directly to ceiling
structures without using the AK attachment kits. Two black #10x1¼” long mounting screws are
included with the MTH1 for mounting through the centers of the two ceiling mount slots in the
MTH1 body. These centers should correspond to two mounting points in a secure platform in
front of your projector so that the UH480 can be properly positioned in front of and as close to
the projector lens as possible without mechanically interfering with the projector or its
ventilation in either “lens in” or “lens out” positions. However, the optical design of the UH480
is very forgiving, so minor deviations in this positioning or any moderate warming around a
projector vent will have no impact on image quality. In addition, note that in a ceiling mounted
system, the center of your projector beam will exit the projector lens below center.
The UH480
will ultimately be aligned with the beam itself and not the projector lens.
As a result, you
should expect the UH480 to be centered below the projector lens and, ultimately, tilted slightly
downward. Before finally tightening the mounting screws, refer to the “Final Adjustments” step
below.
1.
Remove the UH480 Lens from its Lens Bracket by removing the two Lens Knobs.
Securely attach the UH480 Lens Bracket to the MTH1 shuttles using the eight M3x6mm brass
screws and black washers included in the MTH1 kit. The Lens Bracket should be oriented so
that its central threaded hole is aligned with the long slot in the body of the MTH1.
2.
If using an AK attachment kit, position the MTH1 to the bottom of the installed AK
Attachment Plate so that the detailed side (front) of the MTH1 body is facing the projection
screen. Insert each of the four M3x16mm Phillips screws through a lock washer and flat
washer from the MTH1 kit, through the four “M” slots in the Attachment Plate and into the
corresponding holes in the MTH1 body. Tighten only to the point that the MTH1 is against the
Attachment Plate but is still relatively free to be oriented or “pivoted” in the “M” slots.
3.
The UH480 Lens may include a logo plate in a pouch attached to the side of its box.
Use the wrench included to attach the logo plate to the lens. It does not matter which side of
the Lens housing is up or down. Now carefully install the Lens into the Lens Bracket using the
two Lens Knobs. Proceed to “Final Adjustments” step below.
MOUNTING THE ATH1 TRANSPORT
1.
DO
NOT
CONNECT POWER TO THE TRANSPORT AT THIS TIME.
2.
Position the flat side of the
motorized transport against the bottom
of the Attachment Plate so that the
transport logo is toward the screen and
the center “C” hole in the Attachment
Plate is aligned with the front recessed
transport hole. Insert the #10-32 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 #6-32 3/8” screws
through the four “M” slots in the top of the Attachment Plate and down into the transport.
3.
Refer to the ATH1 user manual (included with ATH1) for additional instructions to install
the lens at this time, but do not forget to complete the “Final Adjustments” step below.
