Getting Started
Mounting MimioProjector
Before installing the projector wall mount, you must first determine the projected image
size. This will determine the placement of the mount on the wall as well as the distance of
the projector from the wall. See Determining Where to Mount MimioProjector on page 20
for more information.
WARNING: Failure to provide adequate structural strength for the wall mount and
projector can result in serious personal injury or damage to equipment. It is the
installer’s responsibility to make sure the structure to which the wall mount is attached
can support five times the combined weight of all equipment. Reinforce the structure as
required before installing the wall mount.
To install the projector wall mount
1. Determine the desired location of the projector wall mount.
See Determining Where to Mount MimioProjector on page 20 for more information.
2. Tape the included template to the wall in the desired location, based on the desired
image size.
3. Using a pencil, make a mark on the wall for each hole indicated on the template.
16
4. Drill a hole in the location of each mark you made on the wall. There will be a total of
six holes.
5. Remove the template from the wall.
Installing the Projector
6. Align the holes on the wall mount bracket with the holes that you drilled and attach
the bracket to the wall using fasteners appropriate to the wall surface type.
7. Feed all projector cables through the mounting arm.
8. Insert the mounting arm into the wall bracket.
9. Insert a screw into each of the four holes on the sides of the wall bracket and tighten
using the included allen wrench.
17
Getting Started
10. Insert the long socket head cap screw into the hole in the center of the wall bracket,
below the mounting arm, and tighten using the included hex wrench.
This screw allows for leveling the mounting arm.
11. Align the holes in the projector mounting plate with the holes on the bottom of the
projector and screw into place using the machine screws and washers.
12. Align the holes on the clamping plate with the holes on the back of the mounting plate
and screw into place using the cap head screws.
18
Installing the Projector
13. Slide the projector mounting plate into the mounting arm as shown.
14. Plug the cables into the appropriate ports on the projector. See Connecting theProjector on page 39 for more information.
15. Slide the mounting arm cover onto the end of the mounting arm and push to lock in
place..
16. Slide the wall bracket covers onto the top and bottom of the wall bracket and push to
lock in place.
