How to Install Chief RPMCU Universal Projector Mount with Keyed Locking
Step 1: Plan your mounting location by locating structural joists or using appropriate anchors for the ceiling. Verify the ceiling can support the combined weight of the projector and mount. Prepare the mounting surface, ensuring it is level and accessible for cable routing.
Step 2: Attach the ceiling plate or mounting bracket to the ceiling using the included hardware that matches your installation conditions. Use a level to ensure the plate is perfectly horizontal, as this will influence projector alignment and image quality.
Step 3: Assemble the universal mounting arms and attach them to the projector using the projector’s VESA mounting pattern. Align the arms to the plate’s mounting holes and secure with the appropriate fasteners. Verify that the arms provide sufficient range to accommodate intended tilt and rotation.
Step 4: Hang the projector assembly onto the ceiling plate, then adjust the roll, pitch, and yaw to achieve the desired projection angle and image position. Tighten all adjustment screws securely to lock in alignment.
Step 5: Route power and video cables through the integrated cable management system. Keep cables tidy and clear of any mounting hardware to avoid strain or interference with movement.
Step 6: Engage the keyed locking mechanism to secure the projector against tampering. Store keys in a secure location and test the lock by attempting a gentle rotation and removal to confirm security.
Step 7: Perform a final image alignment check from the seating area, making minor adjustments as needed. Confirm that the projector’s throw distance and zoom settings produce the intended image size and focus before finalizing the installation.
