Mounting the Projector

NOTE: If you buy a third party mount, please use the correct screw size. Screw size can vary depending on the thickness of the mounting plate.

1. To ensure the most secure installation, please use a ViewSonic® wall or ceiling mount.
2. Ensure the screws used to attach the mount to the projector meet the following specifications:

• Screw type: M4 x 8
• Maximum Screw Length: 8 mm

CAUTION

• Avoid installing the projector near a heat source or air conditioner.
• Keep at least a 10 cm (3.9 in.) gap between the ceiling and the bottom of the projector.

Using the Security Bar

To help prevent the projector from being stolen, use a security slot locking device to secure the projector to a fixed object. The security slot can also be used as a safety anchor if the projector is mounted to the ceiling.
