Projector Mount Features
The short-throw projector arm (NPLTWM) is one of the most exible and installer-friendly short-throw arms on the market. It is designed specically for the NEC M300W and M300WS projectors. The mount easily adjusts from 7” to 67” from the wall if used with the extension arm. Its ne-tune controls lets the installer adjust pitch, roll, and yaw independently. After aligning the projectors image to the nal projection settings, the mount can be locked in position with one thumb screw.
To make installations even easier, an array of mounting points at the top and bottom of the GearBox™ allows you to mount the NPLTWM off-center from the stud spacing, if needed. The NPLTWM mounts to dual studs at 16”, 18” or 24”
spacing.
Flexible Mounting Options
Mounts to dual wood studs (16”, 18” or 24” spacing)
A/V Equipment Security
Patent-pending GearBox™ for
PC, Mac mini™ or control modules is secured with Lock-It™ security hardware.

Determining the Installation Height
In order to determine the installation height and throw distance, the projector bracket must be mounted
to the projector. Please refer to the projector bracket installation instructions (page 15) prior to performing the following steps.
Refer to the projector’s User Manual to determine the offset of the projector lens to the top of the
screen/whiteboard (B).
Projector Bracket
Projector
Lens
Measure distance from center of lens to the top of the projector mounting bracket (C).
Add the distance from the ground to the top of the screen (A). Add the projector manufacturers recommended
offset from the projector manual (B), then add the measurement from Step 1 (C). Lastly, add 3.8” to the total.
(Example: A + B + C + 3.8˝= ?)
Add the measurements to determine the mounting height mark. Place a mark at the top of the total calculated
height measurement starting from the ground up. This mark will represent the lower edge of the wall plate.
Legend
A - Distance from ground to the top of the screen/whiteboard (viewable area).
B - Manufacturers recommended offset
measurement. This measurement will be listed in the Users Manual.
C - Center of the lens to the top of the projector bracket.
This total distance will be the location for
the bottom rail on the wall plate.
