The FCMP 44 (Flat Ceiling Mount Plate) is a simple and
easily installed mounting solution for hanging a projector in
installations where a short extension pole is used or where larger
mounting plates cannot be installed. The FCMP 44 can support a
projector setup weighing up to 200 lbs (91.6 kg), and is suitable
for installation on wooden joists. It has an integral 1½"
National Pipe Thread pipe adapter, allowing the attachment of a
suitable projector pole, such as one of the Extron PMP
(Projector Mounting Pole) series. The FCMP 44 is a complementary
mounting accessory for use with the Extron UPB 25
(Universal Projector Mount Bracket).
The features of the FCMP 44 are shown in figure 1. Included in the kit are:
Flat Ceiling Mounting Plate, (1), and Hex Wrench, 3/32", (1).

1. Locate a suitable wooden joist at the location chosen for the
installation. Mark the position of the four corner mounting
holes (see figure 1). Each hole should be in the center of a
joist (minimum size 2 inch by 4 inch). If the plate does not
span two joists, build up a suitable support, using 2 by 4 inch
minimum sized joists, ensuring each hole falls in the center
of a joist.

2. Drill pilot holes perpendicular to the joist. The pilot holes
should be 70% of shank diameter and the full depth of the
lag bolts to be used (1/4 inch diameter by 4 inch lag bolts are
recommended).
3. Using fasteners suitable for the mounting surface (not
