Installation
The projector is heavy. Use safe handling techniques when lifting the projector. Avoid installing near an air conditioner duct or a subwoofer. Please pay attention to the projector installation with respect to the other staging laser light equipment setup. These systems can cause permanent damage to the DMD imaging devices used in our projectors.
When using projectors in environments with third-party high-power laser systems, avoid direct laser beams pointing towards the projection lens. This may cause incident light to converge into the optical engine and cause damage to the DLP DMD. Before installation, make sure that the surface, ceiling,g or rigging that is to support the projector is capable of supporting the combined weight of the projector and lens.
