Mounting the
VX-1000d There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen
installation, one method may be more suitable than another.
Floor Mounting In typical front and rear screen installations, the projector can be mounted to a secure and
level surface such as a table or cart. Carts are useful when moving a projector during a
presentation or from site to site. If possible, lock the wheels when it’s in position to prevent
it from being moved during a presentation.
Ceiling Mounting The projector can also be inverted and suspended from the ceiling using a specially
designed ceiling mount fixture. This type of mounting is recommended for fixed
installations and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited space for
projector and audience.
Adjusting the Projection
Angle If the VX-1000d is ceiling-mounted and the screen is significantly lower than the projector,
you can tilt the projector at a slight angle by adjusting the ceiling mount.
If you do this, you may need to shift the image or apply keystone correction using the OSD
controls, to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to
Using the On-Screen Menus
on page 39.

Connections to the
VX-1000d and DHD
Controller Proceed as follows to connect the DHD Controller to the VX-1000d, your video sources,
external controller(s) -- if present -- and AC power.
When connecting your equipment:
• Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
• Use the correct signal cables for each source.
• Ensure that the cables are securely connected. Tighten the thumbscrews on
connectors that have them.
Connector Panel Access You can access the connector panel through the cable opening at the bottom rear of the
projector (see Figure 2-1).
Connecting the DHD
Controller to the VX-1000d The VX-1000d is designed to receive only video input signals directly from the companion
DHD Controller/Processor. All signal sources should be connected to the appropriate
inputs on the rear panel of the DHD. The signal from the DHD is then output to the
VX-1000d projector through an RGB or DVI cable.
Use only the Runco-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your
projector.
Note
You CANNOT connect signal sources directly to the VX-1000d.
They MUST be routed through the DHD Controller for proper
operation.
