Welcome to Your ICATS Setup
This guide walks you through every step of installing and configuring your ICA Training System (ICATS Pro or EZ). Follow the steps in order -- each one builds on the previous, and skipping ahead can create problems that are harder to sort out later.
The full process takes roughly 3-5 hours. Most of that time is the physical projector mounting. The software setup at the end is straightforward and usually wraps up in under an hour.
What You Will Do
- Confirm your components and room are ready
- Choose and verify your projector mount position
- Physically mount the projector
- Connect ICATS to the projector and join WiFi
- Calibrate the projected image to your table
- Update software and set your table size
- Load your first drill
Two Items You Supply
Two items are required that do not come with your ICATS and must be sourced separately before you start.
Projector -- Not all projectors work with ICATS. Check projector and room requirements before purchasing or mounting anything. Using an incompatible projector is the most common cause of installation problems.
Mounting hardware -- The right hardware depends on your ceiling type, ceiling height, and which mount configuration suits your room. Step 2 walks you through choosing the right one.
Tutorial videos are to supplement this written guide. The support hub has answers to the most common installation questions if you get stuck at any point.
Ready to Start?
Begin with Step 1 to confirm everything in your box is present. That inventory check takes about 15 minutes and prevents surprises later in the process.
Unbox & Inventory
Confirm all components are present before starting installation.
Room & Projector Check
Verify your room dimensions, ceiling height, and projector compatibility before mounting.
Mount the Projector
Physically mount your projector in the correct position above your pool table.
First Power-On & WiFi
Connect ICATS to your projector, set up the keyboard, and join your WiFi network.
Calibration & Alignment
Align the projected image precisely to your pool table surface.
Updates & Configuration
Download the latest software and content, and set your table size.
Your First Drill
Load a drill and begin training on your ICATS.
