Installing the projector

Secure the projector to the base plate of the frame using the hardware provided.
Danger! If not avoided, the following results in death or serious injury.

  • Use all mounting points, including the safety point, when installing the product overhead.
    Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in death or serious injury.

  • A minimum of two people or appropriately rated lift equipment is required to safely lift, install, or move the product.

  1. Perform lens calibration for all lenses excluding the 0.37-0.4:1 zero offset UST lens (P/N: 140-153100-XX).

  2. Turn off the light source and cool the projector for at least 15 minutes.

  3. Turn off the projector and disconnect it from AC power.

  4. Verify the base plate is in a level position.
    If necessary, loosen the locking screws on each adjustment knob and adjust.

  5.  Adjust the projector’s feet so there is no extension.
    The projector must sit flat on the base plate.

  6. Prepare the base plate:
    • GS Series (DWU850-GS, DWU880(A)-GS, DWU1075-GS, DWU1082-GS, DWU8902-GS, DWU1100(A)-GS, DWU1400(A)-GS) with the lenses other than the 0.37-0.4:1 zero offset UST lens (P/N: 140-153100-XX)—Place the 30 mm spacer onto the base plate.

    • Inspire Series (DWU760(A)-iS, DWU860-iS, DWU960-iS, DWU960ST-iS, 4K860(A)-iS)— Place the 15 mm spacer onto the base plate.

  7. Carefully, insert the projector through the front or the rear of the rigging frame. The projector should align with the mounting holes in the base plate. To make locating the mounting points of the projector easier, install a screw through one of the base plate’s mounting holes.

  8. Secure the projector to the correct mounting points, using four screws.
    • GS Series (DWU850-GS, DWU880(A)-GS, DWU1075-GS, DWU1082-GS, DWU8902-GS, DWU1100(A)-GS, DWU1400(A)-GS) with the lenses other than the 0.37-0.4:1 zero offset UST lens (P/N: 140-153100-XX)—Use M6-1.0, length = 45 mm, torque = 16 N.m.

Stacking multiple framed projectors
Up to three framed projectors can be stacked in landscape orientation only, and then rigged in an
upright or inverted position. Stacking in portrait orientation is not permitted.
Danger! If not avoided, the following results in death or serious injury.

  • TIP HAZARD! Stacked frames must be secured together using all locking pins.

  •  Do not stack the device unless specified in this manual.
    Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in death or serious injury.

  • A minimum of four people or appropriately rated lift equipment is required to safely lift, install, or move the product.

  •  The supporting structure must safely support the combined load of the product, all attached hardware, and components following all local safety standards and regulations.

  •  Do not stack more than three projectors in landscape orientation.

  •  Do not stack empty frames.

  •  Projectors must be installed in frames before stacking.

  1. Remove the locking pins from each stacking leg.
  2.  With one person positioned on each side of the framed projector, lift the assembly and place it onto the bottom frame. Stacking in portrait orientation is not permitted
  3.  Verify the four stacking legs of the upper assembly are securely seated on the bottom frame.
  4. Insert a locking pin through each of the stacking legs to lock the frames together. The steel ball on the end of the pin keeps the pin from releasing inadvertently.
  5. Install safety straps (not included) between the frames. Safety straps must be adequately rates for the total load.
  6. When stacking a third framed projector, repeat steps 1 to 4.

Aligning stacked projectors
Stacked projectors must be correctly aligned to one another to achieve an optimally displayed image.
Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in death or serious injury.
• Do not use vertical rigging points or the front and back bars when hoisting or securing the rigging frame.

  1. Hoist and secure a stack of projectors before aligning.
    Only use the horizontal rigging points (A in the image below) on the rigging frame; do not use the vertical rigging points (B in the image below) or front and back bars when hoisting or securing the rigging frame.CHRISTIE DWU850-GS

  2. Loosen the locking screws on each adjustment knob.

  3. Before adjusting the yaw, loosen the four screws on the base plate; otherwise, the adjustment knob can break during adjustment.
    With the lens adapter plate (P/N: 140-156103-XX) , the negative offset of the 0.37-0.4:1 zero offset UST lens (P/N: 140-153100-XX) is 13% in table mode.

  4. Adjust pitch, roll, or yaw until the image geometry is optimized.CHRISTIE DWU850-GS QwikRig Rigging Frame V2 - fig 4
    A| Yaw—Moves the image to the left or right.
    ---|---
    B| Pitch—Moves the image up and down.
    C| Roll—Rotates the image clockwise or counter-clockwise.

  5. For pitch and roll, make sure the gap between the pin (B) and the plate (A) is more than 0.5mm.
    The pin limits the adjustment within the useful range.CHRISTIE DWU850-GS

  6. To lock adjustments, tighten the setscrews on each adjustment knob.
