Introduction
The Ceiling Mounting Bracket CB-100 is very easy to use, and is suitable for attaching the
Prismasonic lens to almost all digital projectors up to a load for 15 kg
(33 lbs). It is possible to attach the bracket both ceiling (also slanting)
and wall. The use of extension arms is not necessary, so it is also possible
to mount the bracket very close to the ceiling if needed.
Mounting Instructions
It is necessary to attach the projector to the bracket at least
from the three spots. There are many different ways to mount the
projector to the bracket, but probable only one optimal solution.
The most important thing is that the circular bracket plate is
mounted to the centre of gravity of projector + lens combination.
Note that the weight of lens is around 2,5-3 kg depending on the model.
Turn around your projector upside down and arrange the fastening
arms on the bottom. The circular plate is attached to the projector
with the aid of extension rods (example1), or long rods (example2)
or straight using the expansion part (example3), depending on where
the centre of gravity spot locates in relation to the screw threads
of the projector body. Make sure that the both axes of the circular
plate are at rectangular position related to the projector optics.
There are M6x16, M5x16 and M4x16 screws, included to the packet,
for attaching the bracket to the projector body, and M6x10 screws
for attaching the extension rods to the circular plate (look examples).
All the extension arms are attached between the projector and the circular
plate. Tight the bolts first only a little.
The long arms, extending the projector's front edge, are attached
to the circular plate with M6x10 screws and square nuts (example3),
and to rectangular lens plate with M6x16 screws. Check that the lens
will now be orthogonally as close as possible to the centre of the
projector optics. Also it is good to note that you may have to tilt
the lens to the direction of the light path (see Lens Manual). This
lens tilting needs some more space between the projector optics and
the lens. After everything is appropriately positioned make the final
tightening of all bolts.
With both projector and lens attached, install the universal mounting
kit now securely to the ceiling or wall (assembly parts not included).
The ceiling mounting plate can be attached directly to the circular
plate, or you can use the adjustable extension arms between them if
needed.

 
Examples
Adjustable extension arm is
attached to the projector and the circular plate. If the
projector has perfectly a planar bottom only a tallest bottom spacer is
needed between the projector and the rod. The rest washers may be needed
if the bottom of projector is not planar.

The long arm is also possible to get attached directly to the projector. Use
square nut for attaching the rod to the circular plate.

If needed it is also possible to attach the circular plate directly to the
projector. In that case use the bottom spacer. Also the short arm is possible to
be used without the extension part as shown.
