Find SkyRailPlus™ Position for your projector
The SkyRailPlus™ can position a projector a maximum distance of 2’10” outside the
MiniBay™ or Superbay™ enclosure. To confirm the mounting position and proper
enclosure configuration follow the three steps below. If you plan on switching between
4:3 aspect ratios and HD (16:9 or 16:10) aspect ratios, see When to Use Half Step
SkyRailPlus™ Positions.
(1) Find your projectors throw distance using the chart below. If you have a custom
sized hitting bay or your projector is not listed contact All Sport Systems for assistance.
EXAMPLE: 5’10” (highlighted in yellow) is the distance the ULTRASHORT-4.3 projector
will mount from the screen for the MiniBay when projecting an image in the 4:3 aspect
ratio. Enter your throw distance on the line provided on the following page (paragraph 3).

(2) Confirm your throw distance is in range for the depth of your hitting enclosure. If your
projectors throw is greater than the ranges shown below for your enclosure depth, it will be
necessary to adjust the projector selection and/or increase the depth of your the enclosure.
EXAMPLE: The 5’10” throw
in our above example means the enclosure must be 5’ or 6’
feet deep
. Whereas the a 7’8” throw
(ULTRASHORT-HD-1080P projector, 16:9, 16’ Wide
Superbay) requires a 6’ to 8’ deep enclosure
.

(3) Find the distance your projector will need to be placed outside your enclosure. To
determine this distance, first determine the distance from the screen to the front of your
enclosure. The screen for the MiniBay/SuperBay is hung approximately 12” from the back
of the enclosure. Thus the screen hangs 4’ from the front of a 5’ deep enclosure or 5’ from
a 6’ deep enclosure, etc. Subtract this distance from the projectors throw distance.
EXAMPLE: Using the throw distance of 5’10” for a 5 deep MiniBay, the projector will be
1’10” outside the enclosure. (i.e. 5’10’ - 4’ = 1’10”)
Enter projector throw distance:
_______ a
See Par. 1 above
Enter enclosure depth minus 12”:
_______ b
For 5’0” deep enclosure enter 4’0”
For 8’0” deep enter 7’0”, etc.
Subtract line b from a:
________
This is the distance from front of enclosure to projector. Use this
figure to find your SkyRailPlus™ Position (see Par. 4 below)
(4) Use the result from Par. 3 above to find your SkyRailPlus™ position. You will need this
information for Step 3 - Attach top to side rails. EXAMPLE: 1’10” falls between 10” and
2’0”, therefore the Default position.

When to use half step SkyRailPlus™ positions
Some customers want the ability to set the projector to a 4:3 aspect ratio when playing
golf and an HD (16:9 or 16:10) aspect ratio when watching a movie. When switching
between these aspect ratios a projector must be moved further back in 4:3. As noted
previously in this guide there are three primary SkyRailPlus™ positions (1) Short
Reach, (2) Default and (3) Long Reach. However, it is also possible to position halfway
to the Short Reach and Long Reach positions.
Shot Reach - Half Step
Long Reach - Half Step
The following chart is a complete listing of the ranges available for each top position:
SkyRailPlus™ Positions
From
To
Short Reach
0”
14”
Half Step
2”
19”
Default
7”
24”
Half Step
12”
29”
Long Reach
17”
34”
This information can prove helpful when locating the best slide range based on a
particular projectors throw ratio. For example below is chart showing the distance the
ULTRASHORT-HD-720P-OC projector will need to be placed outside the enclosure for
aspect ratios and enclosure depth shown:
Ultrashort-HD-720P Projector
16:10 Aspect
4:3 Aspect
SkyRaiPlus™ Position
MiniBay™ 10 wide 5 deep

Short Reach Half Step
SuperBay™ 12 wide 5 deep
18”
32”
Long Reach
SuperBay™ 14 wide 6 deep
18”
25”
Long Reach Half Step
The best position for the 10’ wide 5’ deep MiniBay™ is the Short Reach Half Step of 2”
to 19” that accommodates both aspect ratios. Whereas the best position for the 14’
Wide 6 deep SuperBay™ is the Long Reach Half step. The 14 wide SuperBay™
requires a 6’ deep enclosure to accommodate the longer projector throw. If you have
questions or need assistance don’t hesitate to contact All Sport Systems.

SKYRAILPLUS™ ASSEMBLY
STEP 1 - Attach ARMS to side RAILS
You will need 4 ea bolts and 4 ea nuts to connect the ARMS to the RAILS. Align the
ARMS with the first two holes on the RAILS as shown.
Page 8 of 16 Rev August 10, 2018
AllSportSystems, Inc.© 2018.
STEP 2 - Attach TOP to RAILS
Review Find SkyRailPlus™ Position for your projector. Thereafter attach the TOP to
the RAILS in one of the positions noted below. You will need 4 ea bolts for the Short
Reach and Long Reach positions or 6 ea bolts for the Default position.
SHORT REACH
0” to 10”
Use 4 ea bolts. Align the last
and middle holes of the top with
the first and middle holds on the
rails. As shown this will position
the top closer to the hitting
enclosure for situations where
the projector much be very close
to the hitting bay.
DEFAULT
10” to 2’0”
Use 6 ea bolts. Align the end
and middle holes on the top with
the three holes on the rails. As
shown this is the default, or
most common configuration for
most customers.
LONG REACH
2’0” to 2’10”
Use 4 ea bolts. Align the first
and middle holes of the top with
the last and middle holds on the
rails. As shown this will position
the top further from the hitting
enclosure for situations where
the projector must be further
away from the hitting bay.

STEP 3 - Attach EXTENDERS
You will need 2 ea bolts, 2 ea washers, 2 ea tooth washers, and 2 ea nuts to attach
EXTENDERS to the ARMS.
Attach EXTENDERS to the
outside of the ARMS
already attached to the
SkyRailPlus™.
NOTE: The slotted hole
on the EXTENDERS
should be positioned to the
TOP, opposite to the
slotted hole on the ARMS
Place toothed washers
between the ARMS and
EXTENDERS as shown.
This will help to grip the
plastic to keep the skyrail
in position.
The EXTENDERS can be
position at various angles
relative to the
SkyRailPlus™, allowing
the skyrail to be lifted up at
an angle from the
enclosure.
