Hi everyone,


Now that I am relaxing in the glow of my CRT, Marquee 8111+

It arrived this morning from Curt,


I am looking at mounting the ACON unit.


I have put the ACON into the socket, but there is a gap of about 1cm between the ACON base and the mounting screws on the front plate.


Is there a spacer or something suppose to be installed between them?


Appreciate any help.


Cheers

Steve

I just plugged it in!


Why won't you write a ton of emails?? I'm bored!

Nich,


I did plug it in, but the screws that hold it in place are 1 cm gap away.



I am trying to fire the projector up and watch something.


Wil chat more later

Cheers

Mine came with spacers that replaced the screws in the projector panel.

I have seen 2 Acon units mounted to the projector. The one on Don's 8000 just mounted to the front panel and plugged in. With mine, I had to fabricate spacers to make it align with the plug. I know the boards are different between a Marquee and the ECPs' but I also think there is might be a difference in the mounting between the cameras. The cameras will work with both units.

Mine has screw-in spacer things with threads at the other end that the screws screw into.


They might be a little difficult to find, you might just be able to find a really long screw and call it a day. Or duct tape or something. Whatever you can rig up to hold it in place more securely, because it's too heavy for the plug to hold the camera unit very securely.

Thanks for all the replies, except Nich (Smarty Pants)


I have spaced the ACON unit out from the panels with a nut on each screw.

It is securely mounted with no problems.


Appreciate the comments

Cheers

Does anyone know where an acon for an ECP4500plus can be had? Looked on E-bay, no luck.
