General guide lines
• Use a solid pedestal to put the SP2K-S projector on. Ensure that the pedestal can handle the weight of the
projector and that all feet of the projector are captured.
• The pedestal should be placed in front of the port window wall in a manner that the projector lens holder
cover is at a minimum distance of 20 centimeters from the port window.

Required tools
• Open-end wrench 14 mm
• Open-end wrench 17 mm
Projector centering
1. If the projector is standalone in front of the port window, center the projector with the theatre screen
(reference A Image 4–2).
2. If a film projector is already present (projector will be off-center), try to optimize aim (reference B Image 4–
2).
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 keystone, but will minimize horizontal lens offset required.
