SIGNAL INPUTS
EDID on the DisplayPort, HDMI and HDBaseT inputs
If you are using a computer graphics card or another source that obeys the EDID protocol, the source will automatically congure itself to suit
the capability of the projector.
Otherwise refer to the documentation supplied with the source to manually set the resolution to the DMD™ resolution of the projector or the
nearest suitable setting. Switch o the source, connect to the projector, then switch the source back on again.
Using DisplayPort/HDMI/HDBaseT switchers with the projector
When using a DisplayPort/HDMI/HDBaseT source switcher with the projector, it is important to set the switcher so that it passes the projector
EDID through to the source devices. If this is not done, the projector may not be able to lock to the source or display the source correctly as
its video output timings may not be compatible with those of the projector. Sometimes this is called transparent, pass-through or clone mode.
See your switcher’s manual for information on how to set this mode.

The projector and the remote control need a matching IR code: a two-digit number
between 00 and 99.
The default IR code is 00. This is also a master code, which, if assigned to a remote,
will work regardless of the value assigned to the projector.
To assign an IR code for the projector:
1. Select IR Code.
2. Use the UP and DOWN arrow buttons to change the values.
To assign an IR code for the remote:
1. Press and hold the ADDR button on the remote until the indicator starts ashing.
2. Release the ADDR button and while the indicator is still ashing, enter a two-digit address using the numeric input buttons. The
indicator will ash three times quickly to conrm the change.

The Projector Controller software
is available for download from the
Digital Projection website, free of
charge.
This tool is best used in conjunction
with a specialized light meter (a
photo spectrometer) to measure
color parameters within a particular
installation. However, the preloaded
generic factory default data set
is designed to give more than
satisfactory results.

CHOOSING A LENS
Choosing A Lens
A number of lenses are available. Which lens you choose depends on the screen size, image aspect ratio, throw distance and light output.
The following table shows all available lenses in order of their throw ratios:
Throw ratios Focus range Lens shift
0.79 - 0.99 : 1 zoom 1.02 m - 12.7 m V: 0.5 (U) 0.3 (D) frame
H: 0.1 (L) 0.2 (R) frame
1.32 - 1.89 : 1 zoom 1.33 m - 11.73 m V: 0.5 (U) 0.3 (D) frame
H: 0.1 (L) 0.2 (R) frame
1.82 - 2.40 : 1 zoom 1.83 m - 14.9 m V: 0.5 (U) 0.3 (D) frame
H: 0.1 (L) 0.2 (R) frame
2.34 - 3.90 : 1 zoom 2.36 m - 24.2 m V: 0.5 (U) 0.3 (D) frame
H: 0.1 (L) 0.2 (R) frame
To choose a lens, calculate the throw ratio required.
Notes
Throw distance calculations are
based on the distance from the outer
end of the lens, which will vary from
lens to lens.
The distance between the front
of the projector chassis and the
outer end of the lens is called lens
extension. Lens extensions are
measured when the lens is focused
at innity, and fully extended.
Refer to the projector CAD drawings
for individual lens extension gures.
The 0.79 - 0.99 : 1 zoom lens has
an additional feature permitting
focus correction for curved screens.
The front ring of the lens is a
manual control which provides focus
curvature adjustment to correct for
the dierent focal distances between
center and corner.
For information about individual lens
part numbers, see Appendix A at
the end of this document.

CHOOSING A LENS
Basic calculation
Identify the required lens by calculating the throw ratio.
A throw ratio is the ratio of the throw distance to the screen width:
Throw ratio =
1. Use the formula above to obtain the required throw ratio.
2. Match the throw ratio with a lens from the table below:
Throw ratios Focus range
0.79 - 0.99 : 1 zoom 1.02 m - 12.7 m
1.32 - 1.89 : 1 zoom 1.33 m - 11.73 m
1.82 - 2.40 : 1 zoom 1.83 m - 14.9 m
2.34 - 3.90 : 1 zoom 2.36 m - 24.2 m
3. Ensure the required throw distance is within the range covered by the lens.

CHOOSING A LENS
Basic calculation example
1. Calculate the throw ratio using the formula.
Your screen is 4.5 m wide and you wish to place the projector
approximately 11 m from the screen. The throw ratio will then be
= 2.44
11
4.5
2. Match the result with the lens table.
The lens matching a throw ratio of 2.44 is the 2.34 - 3.90 : 1
zoom lens.
3. Check whether the lens covers the required throw distance.
The focus range quoted for the 2.20 - 3.67 : 1 zoom lens is 2.36
- 24.2 m. The required distance of 11 m is within the range.

CHOOSING A LENS
Full lens calculation
Introducing TRC
The choice of lens will aect the image size and will address discrepancies between the
DMD™ resolution and the source.
When an image lls the height of the DMD™ but not the width, it uses less than 100% of
the DMD™ surface. A lens chosen using the basic formula may produce an image that is
considerably smaller than the actual screen.
To compensate for loss of screen space in such situations, you need to increase the throw
ratio using a Throw Ratio Correction (TRC).
Example
Fig. 1 illustrates a 4:3 image within a 16:9 display
When a 16:9 projector is used for a 4:3 image, the image does not ll the width of the DMD™,
creating a pillarboxing eect - blank spaces to the left and right.
Fig. 2 shows the same image projected on a 4:3 screen using a standard lens (chosen with
the basic calculation).
The DMD™ accurately lls the width of the screen; however, the pillarboxing is now part of the
projected image and is transferred to the screen.
The DMD™ does not ll the height of the screen, which has caused letterboxing - further
blank spaces at the top and bottom of the screen.
The image is now surrounded by blank space, which can be removed if the throw ratio is
increased.
Notes
TRC can only be applied if greater
than 1. If TRC is 1 or less, disregard
it and calculate the throw ratio using
the basic formula.
Fig. 1
Fig. 2
Fig. 3 shows the image projected on the same screen with a lens chosen using TRC.
The increased throw ratio has allowed the 4:3 image to ll the 4:3 screen seamlessly.

POSITIONING THE IMAGE
Positioning The Image
The normal position for the projector is at the centre of the screen. However, you can set the projector above or below the centre, or to one side,
and adjust the image using the Lens shift feature (known as rising and falling front) to maintain a geometrically correct image.

Any single adjustment outside the ranges specied on the following page may result in an unacceptable level of distortion, particularly at the
corners of the image, due to the image passing through the periphery of the lens optics.
If the lens is to be shifted in two directions combined, the maximum range without distortion will be somewhat less, as can be seen in the
illustrations below.

Notes
Throw distance calculations are
based on the distance from the outer
end of the lens, which will vary from
lens to lens.
The distance between the front
of the projector chassis and the
outer end of the lens is called lens
extension. Lens extensions are
measured when the lens is focused
at innity, and fully extended.
Refer to the projector CAD drawings
for individual lens extension gures.
The 0.79 - 0.99 : 1 zoom lens has
an additional feature permitting
focus correction for curved screens.
The front ring of the lens is a
manual control which provides focus
curvature adjustment to correct for
the dierent focal distances between
center and corner.

1080p
An HDTV resolution which corresponds to 1920 x 1080 pixels (a widescreen aspect ratio of 16:9).
Anamorphic lens
A special lens which, when used with the TheaterScope aspect ratio, allows watching 2.35:1 content packed in a 16:9 source.
Aperture
The opening of the lens that determines the angle through which light travels to come into focus.
Aspect ratio
The proportional relationship between the width and the height of the projected image. It is represented by two numbers separated by a colon,
indicating the ratio of image width and height respectively: for example, 16:9 or 2.35:1.
Not to be confused with resolution.
Blanking (video signal)
The section of the video signal where there is no active video data.
Not to be confused with blanking (projection).
Notes
Brightness (electronic control)
A control which adds a xed intensity value to every pixel in the display, moving the entire range of displayed intensities up or down, and is
used to set the black point in the image (see Contrast). In Component Video signals, brightness is the same as luminance.
Brightness (optical)
Describes how ‘bright’ an image that is projected onto a screen appears to an observer.

APPENDIX D: GLOSSARY OF TERMS
C
See Chrominance.
Chrominance
Also known as ‘C’, this is the component, or pair of components, of a Component Video signal which describes color difference information.
Colordierence
In Component Video signals, the dierence between specied colors and the luminance component. Color dierence is zero for
monochrome images.
Color gamut
The spectrum of color available to be displayed.
Color temperature
The position along the black body curve on the chromaticity diagram, normally quoted in Kelvin. It takes into account the preset values for
color balance in the service set-up to take up the variations in the prism. The projector allows you to adjust this temperature (i.e. adjust the
picture color temperature).
Component video
A three-wire or four-wire video interface that carries the signal split into its basic RGB components or luminance (brightness) and two-color-
difference signals (YUV) and synchronization signals.
Notes
Contrast (electronic control)
The adjustment of the white point of the image without aecting the black point. This increases the intensity range of the displayed image.
Contrast (optical)
The intensity dierence between the darkest and lightest areas of the screen.

APPENDIX D: GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Cr, Cb
Color difference signals used with ‘Y’ for digital Component Video inputs. They provide information about the signal color. Not to be
confused with Pr, Pb.
Crop
Remove part of the projected image.
Alternatively, t an image into a frame with a dierent aspect ratio by removing part of the image. The image is resized so that either its
length or its width equals the length or width of the frame, while the other dimension has moved outside the frame; the excess area is then cut
out.
DDC (Display Data Channel)
A communications link between the source and projector. DDC is used on the HDMI, DVI and VGA inputs. The link is used by the source to
read the EDID stored in the projector.
Deinterlacing
The process of converting interlaced video signals into progressive ones.
DHCP(DynamicHostCongurationProtocol)
A network protocol that is used to congure network devices so that they can communicate on an IP network, for example by allocating an IP
address.
Notes
DMD™ (Digital Micromirror Device™)
The optical tool that transforms the electronic signal from the input source into an optical image projected on the screen. The DMD™ of a
projector has a xed resolution, which aects the aspect ratio of the projected image.
A Digital Micromirror Device™ (DMD™) consists of moving microscopic mirrors. Each mirror, which acts as a pixel, is suspended between
two posts by a thin torsion hinge. It can be tilted to produce either a bright or dark pixel.
Edge tear
An artifact observed in interlaced video where the screen appears to be split horizontally. Edge tears appear when the video feed is out of
sync with the refresh rate of the display device.

EDID(ExtendedDisplayIdenticationData)
Information stored in the projector that can be read by the source.
EDID is used on the HDMI, DVI and VGA inputs, allowing the source to automatically congure to the optimum display settings.
EDTV(EnhancedDenitionTelevision)
A progressive digital television system with a lower resolution than HDTV.
Field
In interlaced video, a part of the image frame that is scanned separately. A eld is a collection of either all the odd lines or all the even lines
within the frame.
Frame
One of the many still images displayed in a sequence to create a moving picture. A frame is made of horizontal lines of pixels. For example,
a 1920x1080 frame consists of 1080 lines, each containing 1920 pixels. In analog video frames are scanned one at a time (progressive
scanning) or split into fields for each eld to be scanned separately (interlaced video).
Frame rate
The number of frames shown per second (fps). In TV and video, a frame rate is the rate at which the display device scans the screen to
“draw” the frame.
Notes
Frame rate multiplication
To stop low frame rate 3D images from ickering, frame rate multiplication can be used, which increases the displayed frame rate by two or
three times.
Gamma

APPENDIX D: GLOSSARY OF TERMS
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
An encryption scheme used to protect video content.
HDTV(HighDenitionTelevision)
A television system with a higher resolution than SDTV and EDTV. It can be transmitted in various formats, notably 1080p and 720p.
Hertz (Hz)
Cycles per second.
Horizontal Scan Rate
The rate at which the lines of the incoming signal are refreshed. The rate is set by the horizontal synchronization from the source and
measured in Hertz.
Hs + Vs
Horizontal and vertical synchronization.
Hue
The graduation (red/green balance) of color (applicable to NTSC).
Notes
Interlacing
A method of updating the image. The screen is divided in two fields, one containing every odd horizontal line, the other one containing the
even lines. The elds are then alternately updated. In analog TV interlacing was commonly used as a way of doubling the refresh rate without
consuming extra bandwidth.
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
An electronic component that emits light.

Letterboxing
Black margins at the top and bottom of the image. Letterboxing appears when a wider image is packed into a narrower frame without
changing the original aspect ratio.
Lumen
A photometric unit of radiant power. For projectors, it is normally used to specify the total amount of emitted visible light.
Luminance
Also known as ‘Y’, this is the part of a Component Video signal which aects the brightness, i.e. the black and white part.
Noise
Electrical interference displayed on the screen.
NTSC (National Television Standards Committee)
The United States standard for television - 525 lines transmitted at 60 interlaced fields per second.
OSD (on-screen display)
The projector menus allowing you to adjust various settings.
Notes
PAL (Phase Alternate Line)
The television system used in the UK, Australia and other countries - 625 lines transmitted at 50 interlaced fields per second.
Pillarboxing
Black margins at the left and right of the image. Pillarboxing appears when a narrower image is packed into a wider frame without changing
the aspect ratio.

APPENDIX D: GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Pixel
Short for Picture Element. The most basic unit of an image. Pixels are arranged in lines and columns. Each pixel corresponds to a micromirror
within the DMD™; resolutions reect the number of pixels per line by the number of lines. For example, a 1080p projector contains 1080
lines, each consisting of 1920 pixels.
Pond of mirrors
Area around the periphery of the DMD™ containing inactive mirrors. The pond of mirrors may cause artifacts, for example during the edge
blending process.
Pr, Pb
Color difference signals used with ‘Y’ for analog Component Video inputs. They provide information about the signal color. Not to be
confused with Cr, Cb.
Primary colors
Three colors any two of which cannot be mixed to produce the third. In additive color television systems the primary colors are red, green and
blue.
Progressive scanning
A method of updating the image in which the lines of each frame are drawn in a sequence, without interlacing.
Notes
Pulldown
The process of converting a 24 fps lm footage to a video frame rate (25 fps for PAL/SECAM, 30 fps for NTSC) by adding extra frames. DP
projectors automatically carry out reverse pulldown whenever possible.
Resolution
The number of pixels in an image, usually represented by the number of pixels per line and the number of lines (for example, 1920 x 1200).
RGB (Red, Green and Blue)
An uncompressed Component Video standard.

APPENDIX D: GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Saturation
The amount of color in an image.
Scope
An aspect ratio of 2.35:1.
SDTV(StandardDenitionTelevision)
An interlaced television system with a lower resolution than HDTV. For PAL and SECAM signals, the resolution is 576i; for NTSC it is 480i.
SECAM (Sequential Color with Memory)
The television system used in France, Russia and some other countries - 625 lines transmitted at 50 interlaced fields per second.
Synchronization
A timing signal used to coordinate an action.
Test pattern
A still image specially prepared for testing a projection system. It may contain various combinations of colors, lines and geometric shapes.
Notes
TheaterScope
An aspect ratio used in conjunction with a special anamorphic lens to display 2.35:1 images packed into a 16:9 frame.
Throw distance
The distance between the screen and the projector.
Throw ratio
The ratio of the throw distance to the screen width.

APPENDIX D: GLOSSARY OF TERMS
TRC (Throw ratio correction)
A special number used in calculating throw distances and throw ratios when the image does not ll the width of the DMD™.
TRC is the ratio of the DMD™ aspect ratio to the image source aspect ratio:
TRC =
TRC is only used in calculations if it is greater than 1.
Vertical Scan Rate
The rate at which the frames of the incoming signal are refreshed. The rate is set by the vertical synchronization from the source and
measured in Hertz.
Vignetting
Optical cropping of the image caused by the components in the projection lens. This can happen if too much oset is applied when
positioning the image using the lens mount.
Vista
An aspect ratio of 1.66:1.
DMD™ aspect ratio
Source aspect ratio
Notes
WUXGA
A display resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels with a 16:10 screen aspect ratio. (Stands for Widescreen Ultra Extended Graphics Array.)
Y
This is the luminance input (brightness) from a Component Video signal.
YUV
See Pr, Pb.
