Convergence adjustment of the LCD panels.

Every LCD panel has 6 adjustment screws. By turning these screws
you change the relative position of the panels and converge the
image.
Always start with the adjustment of the green panel. When the green
image is correctly focused, it will later on be used as the reference
image to converge the red and blue image.

Next alignments have to be done :

You have to adjust the green panel until the indicated lines on the
screen are focused (sharp lines). Continue with the blue panel and
adjust until the blue lines coincide with the green lines. Than continue
with the red panel until the red lines coincide with the green lines.

Follow the next procedure to adjust the LCD panels.

* Open the top cover as described in Gaining access to the DIP
switches under Connecting to a computer in chapter Connections.

The three mounting parts for the LCD's (two are shown on the drawing
below) are located on the black metal cover. The screws are
indicated from 1 to 6 for each color.

To adjust the convergence, there are test patterns provided in the
service menu.

Push the control stick forward or backward to hightlight Convergence
and press ENTER to display the Convergence menu.
Start with the Green test pattern and continue with the Blue on green
and finish with the Red on green.

The pattern shows lines of one pixel.
Near six lines on the displayed pattern, a screw is drawn with a
number next to it (e.g. if displayed in green = corresponding with the
screws and numbers on the green LCD panel).
When turning a screw in the direction marked by the arrow above the
displayed screw on the screen, the line on the screen moves in the
direction of the straight arrow.

Green focusing

a. Insure all convergence screws are adjusted to a length of about 33
mm (1.3") between the two plates.

b. Adjust the projection lens until optimal focus for point 1 is obtained.

c. Turn screw 2 for optimal focus of the corresponding green line 2

on the screen.

d. This alignment influences the other, so repeat if necessary steps

b. and c. until points 1 and 2 are focused.

e. Turn screw 3 for optimal focus of the corresponding green line 3 on

the screen.

f. Repeat if necessary the steps b. to e. until the complet screen is

focused.

g. Secure the projection lens by turning the fastener ring clockwise.

Green position

a. If necessary turn screw 5 until the two horizontal lines 5 on the
screen are on one horizontal line.

When the green pattern is correctly focused, press EXIT to return to
the Test pattern menu.

Blue on green convergence.

Push the control disc up or down to hightlight Blue on green and press
ENTER to display the Blue on green test pattern.
The longest lines are the blue lines. These lines must be converged
with the green lines.
The drawn screws and numbers are displayed in blue.

Follow next steps :

Blue focusing

a. Insure all convergence screws are adjusted to a length of about 33

mm (1.3") between the two plates.

b. Turn screw 1 for optimal focus of the corresponding point 1 on the

screen.

c. Turn screw 2 for optimal focus of the corresponding point 2 on the

screen.

d. Due to interaction, it may be necessary to repeat step b. and c. until

point 1 and 2 are focused.

e. Turn screw 3 for optimal focus of the corresponding point 3 on the

screen.

f. Due to interaction, it may be necessary to repeat steps b. to d. until

point 1, 2 and 3 are correctly focused.

j. Adjust screw 6 for optimal convergence of the vertical lines.

k. Repeat step i. and j. until a optimal convergence in horizontal and

vertical direction is obtained.

Red on green convergence.

Push the control disc up or down to highlight Red on green and press
ENTER to display the Red on green test pattern.

Repeat the same procedure as for Blue on green lines but read red
when blue is indicated.

To check the result of the convergence adjustments, highlight Hatch
and press ENTER. A hatch pattern will be displayed on the screen.

ENTER : displays a hatch pattern.
EXIT : returns to the service menu.

All lines must be displayed in white, if not so repeat the convergence
adjustment procedure.

How to use the built-in adjustable lensholder.

With the lensholder, it is possible to shift the displayed image up or
down on the screen without moving the projector from its normal
positioin and without any geometric picture distortion. This built-in
feature is particularly useful for use in dual projector configurations or
for applications when the projector cannot be installed in its standard
position.
Features :

- Vertical and horizontal shift of the lens without removing the top
cover,

5 mm left and 5 mm right
15 mm up and 15 mm down.

- Makes it possible to project a geometric non-distored image from a
non-standard position.

- The shift of the lensholder is not determined by the lens but depends
on the screen width.

- Can be used with all available lenses.

How to shift the image :

- First shift the image left or right until the correct horizontal position

is obtained. Turn clockwise to shift the image to the right, turn counter
clockwise to shift to the left. Use the hand screw.

- Shift the image up or down until the correct vertical position of the
image is obtained. Turn clockwise to shift the image up, turn counter
clockwise to shift down. Use the hand screw.
Midposition of the adjustable lensholder.

-If the top cover is opened, the lensholder indication line has to match
with the center of the hole in the plate behind the lensholder.

- If the top cover is closed, the 3 indication lines on the lensholder has
to match with indication on the top cover.

Horizontal shift is function of the Screen Width for
various lens shifts.

Vertical shift is function of the Screen Width for various lens shifts.

Both the vertical and horizontal shift of the displayed picture can be
calculated as follows :

Screen shift = lens shift x 1 + (Screen width / LCD panel width)

LCD panel width for 3200 series : 0,06480 m (2.551 inch)
