of the projector. The universal pedestal has a separate compartment to install the UPS unit (if available) for
the DP-1200 digital projector. Futhermore, the universal pedestal contains a standard 19” rack to build in the
projector peripherals like alternative content switchers (e.g. ACS-2048).
Necessary tools

Projector centering
1. If the projector is standalone in front of the port window, center the projector with the theatre screen (see ref A image 3-7).
2. If a film projector is already present (projector will be off-center), try to optimize a im (see ref B imag e 3-7).
Note: Unlike film projectors, it is best to keep the projector lens surface as parallel to the screen as possible, even if it is
significantly above the screen center.
The off-center position slightly increase side key stone, but will m inimize horizontal lens offset required.
