PANAMORPH ELPALK2 CEILING MOUNT ANAMORPHIC LENS KIT

This kit is a customized version of the Panamorph AKPro attachment kit specifically intended for
use with the Epson PowerLite Pro Cinema 7500UB projector.

For both safety and performance, it is critical that the Chief RPA ceiling mount head
included in this kit be rigidly and strongly installed to support at least 250 pounds.
Consult a qualified installer for any additional hardware necessary.

SPECIAL NOTE ON CEILING MOUNT LOCATION

This kit’s attachment plate is designed so that the projector and lens system form an average
center of mass (gravity) approximately located at the center of the ceiling mount pipe. As a
result, the ideal location for the ceiling mount is 2” (50mm) to the left of the horizontal
screen center. If the ceiling mount is already installed it may be an easier alternative to shift
the screen to the right by this same amount. If the entire system is already installed then the
third alternative is to use the necessary amount of horizontal lens shift to compensate. This
shift will cause a slight amount of horizontal keystoning through the Panamorph lens but may be
small enough (especially at longer throw ratios) to overscan into the border of the screen. Also,
be sure that you do not install the projector at an extreme end of its zoom range otherwise you
may not have enough zoom for adjustment of the final image.

STEP ONE - CONNECT THE ATTACHMENT PLATE:

the projector ceiling mount holes as guided by the Attachment Plate diagram. Now insert a 5/8”
plastic spacer between the projector and the Attachment Plate at each of the four mount holes.
Insert and tighten an M4x30mm silver screw through a M4 lock washer, M4 flat washer, the
Attachment Plate and then the spacer into each of the projector’s mounting holes.

WARNING!

Use extreme caution and appropriate hardware when installing heavy objects to a

ceiling. Periodically check all fasteners and connection hardware to be sure they are

not coming loose. When installing or adjusting a ceiling mount, DO NOT use

adhesives to prevent the screws from loosening and do not use oils or lubricants. If

you apply adhesives to the mount to prevent the screws from loosening, or if you use

lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack and the projector may

fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the

mount and could damage the projector.

Improper installation, or use of oils or lubricants, may lead to an increased risk of

your equipment becoming unstable and possibly injuring someone. Panamorph, Inc.

assumes no liability for injury or damage.
