2.7 Suspending the projector from a truss
WARNING: Never suspend more than two (2) projectors. Failure to do so can cause serious injury or death.
Introduction
A projector can be suspended from a truss using rigging clamps. When a Bottom Carry Handle is installed on the projector, 8 slots
are available to mount rigging clamps. 4 slots are longitudinally oriented (reference 1, image 2-17) and 4 slots are transversely
oriented (reference 2, image 2-17). Each slot contains a rigging point (reference 3, image 2-17) of which the position in the slot can
be adjusted depending on the truss the projector is being suspended from. The rigging clamps can be attached to those rigging
points, which allows an easy and fast physical setup of the projector in a hanging configuration.

2. Loosen the nuts of the rigging points (reference 1, image 2-19) and slide them on there place according to the measured center
distance.
Tighten the nuts of the rigging points.
Warning: Make sure the rigging points are symmetrically around the center of the Bottom Carry Handle to ensure the balance
of the hanging projector.
Warning: Make sure the rigging points are tightened after adjustment.

3. Mount the rigging clamps on the rigging points:
a) Screw the nut (reference 2, image 2-20) on the spacer (reference 3, image 2-20) to the desired height.
b) Install the spacer in the rigging point by turning it clockwise until the nut and the rigging point meet.
Warning: Make sure that the spacers are screwed in for minimum 2 cm in the rigging points. Failure to do so can cause the
projector to fall down.
Warning: Always use 4 rigging points when suspending a projector.

7. Install the 2 safety cables. Wind them around the carry handle and the truss (push the hook through the loop and then around
the truss). Ensure that the play is maximum 20 cm. If necessary, wind the cable a few times around the truss before clasping
the safety hook around the cable.

8. Lift up the truss with projector to the desired height.
Warning: Make sure the safety cable is installed with a minimum of play, so that the projector can only fall down for maximum
20 cm. If necessary, wind the cable a few times around the truss before clasping the safety hook around the cable.
WARNING: Never suspend more than two (2) projectors. Failure to do so can cause serious injury or death.
How to suspend 2 projectors from a truss?
2. Turn the stack upside down.
Install 2 safety cables around both Bottom Carry Handles by performing the following procedure:
a) Install the safety cables around the Bottom Carry Handle of the bottom projector. Push the safety hooks through the loops.
b) Install the other end of the safety cables around the Bottom Carry Handle of the top projector and clasp the safety hooks
around the cables as illustrated.
Warning: Make sure the safety cables are installed with a minimum of play, so that the projector can only fall down for maximum
20 cm. If necessary, wind the cables a few times around the carry handle tubes before clasping the safety hooks
around the cables.

2. Installation procedures
2.10 Aligning stacked projectors
How to align stacked projectors?
1. Project a hatch pattern with the reference projector.
Note: In case of a table mount configuration the reference projector is the lowest projector and in case of a hanging configuration
the reference projector is the uppermost projector.
2. Make sure the hatch pattern projected by the reference projector is sharp and has a perfect rectangle outline. If this is not the
case, readjust the reference projector before aligning the other stacked projector(s) with the reference hatch pattern.
3. Project the same hatch pattern with the other projector in the stack.
Tip:
Use a white colored hatch pattern for the reference projector and e.g. green colored for the stacked projector. This
makes it easier to see the difference between both hatch patterns projected.
4. If necessary, adjust the rotation of the stacked projector with respect to the reference projector. See "Inclinating and/or rotating
5. If necessary, adjust the inclination of the stacked projector with respect to the reference projector. See "Inclinating and/or rotating
6. If necessary, adjust the skew of the stacked projector with respect to the reference projector. See "Skewing the projector", page
23.
7. Shift the hatch pattern horizontally and vertically until the outline of the hatch pattern is most symmetrically placed with respect
to the reference hatch pattern.
Note: Note that the “Shift” function is motorized, which means that you have to access the projector software, via the local
keypad or remote control unit, to operate the “Shift” function.
Shift

Stacked projectors, shift
8. Zoom the hatch pattern in or out until the outline of the hatch pattern matches exactly the outline of the reference hatch pattern.
Note: Note that the “Zoom” function is motorized, which means that you have to access the projector software, via the local
keypad or remote control unit, to operate the “Zoom” function.
Zoom

9. If necessary, repeat this procedure starting from step 3 until the hatch pattern of the stacked projector is perfectly aligned with
the hatch pattern of the reference projector.
In case of a triple stacked table mount configuration, adjust and align first the bottom projector (reference),
than the projector in the middle and finally the upper projector.
