Securing the Upper Assembly Ceiling Plate
Review your projector’s owner’s manual to determine what distance is recommended from the front of the lens to the edge of the
screen for best picture ratio.
However in most home theater and office ceiling mount installations this is not practical as the projector would be
to low within the room. At a minimum you should at least locate the inverted projectors top of the lens point to a
point centered horizontally on the screen and no higher then the top image edge of the screen).
Most projector manufacturers prefer to have the center of the projector lens centered of the top of the screen when the projector is
inverted for ceiling mounting. It is normally better to have the top edge of the lens as close to parallel with the top image edge of the
screen as well. Before you mount your screen and projector, make sure the mounting location will safely support the weight of the
projector.
Make sure to measure from the center of the mounting bracket to the front edge of the lens to determine the proper
placement of the center of the upper assembly.
Step 1. Secure the ceiling assembly into a solid wood ceiling stud with the two (2) #14 x 2” wood screws (supplied) or with other
(commercially available) hardware depending on your installation environment (Figure 5).
