General precautions
Do not open the cabinet. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Use only the power cable provided.
Ensure that the power outlet includes a Ground connection, as this
equipment MUST be earthed.
Take care to prevent small objects such as paper or wire from falling
into the projector. If this does happen, switch off immediately, and have
the objects removed by authorised service personnel.
Do not expose the projector to rain or moisture, and do not place any
liquids on top of the projector.
Unplug before cleaning, and use a damp, not wet, cloth.
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands.
Do not touch the power plug during a thunder storm.
Handle the power cable carefully and avoid sharp bends. Do not use a
damaged power cable.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the lamp module. The whole
module should be replaced.
Notes
Only lamps supplied by Digital Projection and intended for this
projector should be used. Fitting any other lamp could damage both
projector and lamp, and will invalidate the warranty.
Take care when removing the lamp module.
NEVER touch the lamp or reflector.
Take care not to touch the glass surface of the lamp module. If you
do accidentally touch the glass, it should be cleaned before use. (see
section 5. Maintenance.)
Do not use the lamp for more than 2000 hours, as this may cause
serious lamp failure, damage the lamp module and cause extra cost on
replacement.
HID lamps produce high intensity light. Do not look directly at the light
coming from the lamp housing, or the lens, or allow items such as
magnifying lenses to be placed in the light path. This could result in
serious eye damage.
Do not touch the ventilation outlets, as they will become hot in use.
Do not cover or obstruct the ventilation outlets or inlets.
Do not cover the lens whilst the projector is switched on. This could
cause a fire
Always allow the projector to cool for 5 minutes before disconnecting
the power, moving the projector, changing the lamp or cleaning the
fans or filter.
Never use strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinners to
clean the projector and lens.
Digital Projection HIGHlite Cine 260, 1080p 330 User Manual Important Information
Installation precautions
The projector must be installed only by suitably qualified personnel, in
accordance with local building codes.
The projector should be installed as close to the power outlet as
possible.
The power connection should be easily accessible, so that it can be
disconnected in an emergency.
Ensure that there is at least 30cm (12in) of space between the
ventilation outlets and any wall, and 10cm (4in) on all other sides.
Do not install the projector close to anything that might be affected by
its operational heat, for instance, polystyrene ceiling tiles, curtains etc.
The projector weighs approximately 20 kg (44 lbs). Use safe handling
techniques when lifting the projector.
Do not stack more than three projectors.
When stacking projectors, the stack MUST be vertical, to ensure that
the stresses are distributed to all four chassis corners.
Before installation, make sure that the surface, ceiling or rigging that is
to support the projector is capable of supporting the combined weight
of all the projectors.
Notes
Backup safety chains or wires should always be used with ceiling
mount installations.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector chassis. Only the
chassis corners are capable of withstanding the weight of another
projector.
Do not drop or knock the projector.
Place the projector in a dry area away from sources of dust, moisture,
steam, smoke, sunlight or heat.
Do not tilt the projector more than ±8.5° forwards and backwards
when in use, as this may cause serious lamp failure, damage the lamp
module and cause extra cost on replacement. The projector my be
tilted left and right as necessary.
Operation and configuration precautions
Software update should NOT be carried out except by, or with the
supervision of, Digital Projection Service personnel.

Screen requirements
Aspect ratio
Fitting the image to the DMD
The projector uses a DMD (Digital Mirror Device) to create the image that is
projected onto the screen. The resolution of the DMD in this projector is 1920 x
1080 pixels, or to put it another way, its aspect ratio is 16:9.
1920 pixels
1080 pixels
16 units
If the source image supplied to the projector has a different aspect ratio from this,
or even if it has the same aspect ratio but fewer pixels, then the image will not fill
the DMD. The projector therefore needs to scale the image.
9 units
Notes
The projector has five aspect ratio settings, so that you can choose the one that is
most suitable for your image source. The settings are:
16:9 the image is scaled to fill the DMD (and thus, a 16:9 screen).
Theaterscope the image is scaled such that a 2.35:1 image will be displayed
at the correct aspect ratio when the projector is fitted with an
anamorphic lens. Thus an image with an aspect ratio of 2.35:1
can be displayed using the full 16:9 resolution of the DMD.
the image is scaled to fit a 4:3 screen, using the full height of the
4:3
DMD.
4:3 Narrow
Native
to be used for 4:3 images in combination with an anamorphic
lens. The image is scaled to fit the DMD vertically, but squeezed
horizontally such that the lens will stretch it to the correct ratio.
the image is displayed with no scaling, at its original resolution, in
the centre of the screen.
Examples of 16:9 images displayed with different aspect ratio settings
For more information about
changing the Aspect ratio
setting, see Using the control
keys and Using the menus
in section 4. Controlling the
Projector.
The 16:9 image shown here has
far fewer pixels than the 1920 x
1080 of the DMD. Your image
may be different.
16:9
Note that, as the aspect ratio of the image matches that of the DMD, the 16:9
setting is best, unless there is some specific reason for wanting the smaller image,
for instance, to maintain the same scale as other images from the same source.

may be different.
If you are using an anamorphic
lens, you will need to use the
4:3 Narrow setting to correct the
image.
Examples of 2.35:1 images displayed with different aspect ratio
settings
16:9 Native
The 16:9 setting is best, unless there is some specific reason for wanting the
smaller Native image, for instance, to maintain the same scale as other images from
the same source.
If you have an anamorphic lens, the Theaterscope setting would be a much better
option. Because it uses the whole of the DMD, it will be a much brighter image than
the letterboxed options shown above, and will fill a wider screen if this is available.

Diagonal screen sizes
Screen sizes are sometimes specified by their diagonal size (D) in inches. When
dealing with large screens and projection distances at different aspect ratios, it is
more convenient to measure screen width (W) and height (H).
W = width
H = height
D = diagonal (inches)
The example calculations below show how to convert diagonal sizes in inches into
width and height, at various aspect ratios.
2.35:1 (Scope)
= D x 0.92in (D x .023m) H = D x 0.39in (D x .01m)
W
1.85:1
W = D x 0.88in (D x .022m) H = D x 0.47in (D x .012m)
16:9 = 1.78:1 (native aspect ratio)
W = D x 0.87in (D x .022m) H = D x 0.49in (D x .0125m)
Notes
1.66:1 (Vista)
W = D x 0.86in (D x .022m) H = D x 0.52in (D x .013m)
16:10 = 1.6:1
= D x 0.85in (D x .022m) H = D x 0.53in (D x .014m)
W
4:3 = 1.33:1
W = D x 0.8in (D x .02m) H = D x 0.6in (D x .015m)

Fitting the image to the screen
It is important that your screen is of sufficient height and width to display images at
all the aspect ratios you are planning to use.
Use the conversion chart, or the sample calculations below to check that you are
able to display the full image on your screen. If you have insufficient height or width,
you will have to reduce the overall image size in order to display the full image on
your screen.

Positioning the screen and projector
Optimum viewing position
For optimum viewing, the screen should be a flat surface perpendicular to the floor.
The bottom of the screen should be 1.2m (4 feet) above the floor and the front row
of the audience should not have to look up more than 30° to see the top of the
screen.
The distance between the front row of the audience and the screen should be at
least twice the screen height and the distance between the back row and the screen
should be a maximum of 8 times the screen height. The screen viewing area should
be within a 60° range from the face of the screen.
Notes
The projector should be
installed as close to the
power outlet as possible.
The power connection should
be easily accessible, so that
it can be disconnected in an
emergency.
Ensure that there is at least
30cm (12in) of space between
the ventilation outlets and
any wall, and 10cm (4in) on
all other sides.
Do not install the projector
close to anything that
might be affected by its
operational heat, for instance,
polystyrene ceiling tiles,
curtains etc.
The image can be flipped for
rear projection (see section
4. Using the menus, Image
menu) and displayed without
the need for extra mirrors or
equipment.
However, you must ensure
that there is sufficient distance
behind the screen for the
projector to be correctly located.
Rear installation is generally
more complicated and advice
should be sought from your
local dealer before attempting it.

Screen size vs throw distance
Throw distance is the distance measured from the front of the projector to the
screen. This is an important calculation in any projector installation as it determines
whether or not you have enough room to install your projector with the desired
screen size, and if your image will be the right size for your screen.
Calculating screen width and throw distance
Throw Distance = Screen Width x Lens Throw Ratio
Screen Width = Throw Distance
Lens Throw Ratio
Notes
For more information about the
relationship between screen
size, throw distance and lenses,
see Choosing a lens on the
following pages.
The following lens calculations may be useful:
Throw ratio = Throw distance
Screen width
Throw ratio factor (TRF) = DMD width in pixels = 1920
image width in pixels image width in pixels
Therefore:
Screen width = Throw distance
Throw ratio x TRF
Throw distance = Screen width x Throw ratio x TRF
The Throw ratio for a particular
lens is fixed, but assumes that
the image fills the width of the
DMD.
For images that do not fill the
width of the DMD, the Throw
ratio is effectively increased.
To correct for this in these
calculations, a Throw Ratio
Factor (TRF) is used.

Choosing a lens
A number of lenses are available for use with the projector. Which lens you choose
will depend on the screen size, image aspect ratio, projection distance and light
output.
The lenses available and their part numbers are listed below:
High Brightness High Contrast
0.77 : 1 fixed lens 110-808 110-022
1.16 : 1 fixed lens 110-809 110-023
1.45 - 1.74 : 1 zoom lens 110-803 110-017
1.74 - 2.17: 1 zoom lens 110-804 110-018
2.17 - 2.9: 1 zoom lens 110-805 110-019
2.9 - 4.34: 1 zoom lens 110-806 110-020
4.34 - 6.76: 1 zoom lens 110-807 110-021
If the image does not fill the full width of the DMD, this effectively increases the
throw ratio of the lens. This can be corrected for by applying a Throw ratio factor.
Method one: using the lens charts
For the screen sizes listed below, use the charts on the following pages, to choose
the most suitable lens.
Notes
The High Brightness lenses
are recommended for the High
Brightness model, for maximum
light output.
The High Contrast lenses are
recommended for the High
Contrast models, for maximum
contrast.
ONLY the High Brightness
lenses are recommended for
the 1080p 330.
For more information about
Throw ratio factor (TRF), see

Choosing a lens by calculation
For any screen size not listed above, or if you need to be more precise, then use the
calculations below.
•
Identify actual width of the image in pixels.
Calculate the Throw Ratio Factor: TRF = DMD width (1920)
•
Image width in pixels
Identify the screen width required.
•
Identify the throw distance required.
•
Throw distance calculations are based on the distance from the outer end of the
lens, which will vary from lens to lens. Once a lens has been chosen, the figures
can be checked using the lens extension values given below.
Calculate the throw ratio required. Throw ratio = Throw distance
•
Screen width x TRF
Choose a lens with the required throw ratio from the list at the bottom of the
•
page.
Check from the list that the lens chosen will work at the throw distance required.
Example
An image, 1024 x 768 pixels, screen width 3.0m, throw distance 17m from the
•
outer end of the lens.
Throw Ratio Factor (TRF) = 1920 = 1.875
•
1024
Throw ratio required = 17 = 3.02
•
3.0 x 1.875
Choose the 2.9 - 4.34 : 1 zoom lens.
•
Notes
The Throw ratio for a particular
lens is fixed, but assumes that
the image fills the width of the
DMD.
For images that do not fill the
width of the DMD, the Throw
ratio is effectively increased.
To correct for this in these
calculations, a Throw Ratio
