SIGNAL INPUTS
EDID on the HDMI, DisplayPort 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 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 off the source, connect to the projector, then switch the source back on again.
Using HDMI/DisplayPort switchers with the projector
When using an HDMI/DisplayPort 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.
Additionally, sources which use HDCP encryption may not display properly when connected to the projector via a switcher. Refer to the
switcher’s manual for more information.

• Dynamic Black
Set to On to allow for increased contrast in darker scenes by modulating the light
source.
• Light Off Timer
When Dynamic Black is On, the Light Off Timer will dene if laser light source
will turn off after a period of time has passed. The options are: Disable, 0.5, 1.0,
1.5, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 seconds.
• Gamma
Choose a de-gamma curve from 1.0, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.35, 2.5, S-Curve, and DICOM.
Used correctly, the Gamma setting can improve contrast while maintaining good
details for blacks and whites.
If excess ambient light washes out the image and it is difcult to see details in dark
areas, lower the
Gamma setting to compensate. This improves contrast while
maintaining good details for blacks. Conversely, if the image is washed out and
unnatural, with excessive detail in black areas, increase the setting.
S-Curve is an enhanced mid-tone gamma.
DICOM is a simulated DICOM display, which can be used for training applications.
• HDR
Choose an HDR setting from AUTO, HDRPQ-400, HDRPQ-500, HDRPQ-1000 and

Auto is the default setting. When a 4KUHD Blue-Ray player sends an HDR ag to the
projector it will select the appropriate option according to the player data.
HDR (High Dynamic Range) is a new form of gamma developed to create more
realistic experience when viewing images delivered using this format, such as scenes
with bright sunlight. Unlike traditional gamma, HDR is not device or installation
independent. HDR content will come with a recommended brightness regardless of
screen size. For best results as a guideline the following screens sizes are suggested.

Black in the blended regions appears less dark than in the rest of the image. To
compensate for this, use this menu to raise the black levels of the rest of the image:
• Set All to the required amount of black level correction. This will apply equal
correction to the black levels of all colors.
• If necessary, use the individual color sliders (Red, Green and Blue) for ne
adjustment.
You may experience artifacts at the edges where the blended region of one projector
overlaps the pond of mirrors of its neighbor. In the example below, the blended
image comes from two projectors,
applied; as a result, artifacts 3 and 4 have emerged at the edges where the
black level uplift region of one projector overlaps the pond of mirrors of the other.
To remove the artifacts, you need to slightly reduce the size of the black level uplift
region of each projector so it does not overlap the pond of mirrors of the other
projector.

• Infrared Remote
Set to Off if you wish to disable the remote control.
• IR Code
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.
• IR Code Reset
Use this command to unassign an IR code from the projector. This will revert the IR
Code value to 00.
To unassign an IR code from the remote control,
• Press and hold ALT and ADDR simultaneously until the indicator ashes to
conrm the change.

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
11
2. Match the result with the lens table.
The lens matching a throw ratio of 2.44 is
zoom lens.
3. Check whether the lens covers the required throw distance.
The range quoted for the 2.17 - 2.90 : 1 zoom lens is 2.7 - 15.4
m. The required distance of 11 m is within the range.

CHOOSING A LENS
Full lens calculation
Introducing TRC
The choice of lens will affect 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 4K-UHD Display.
When a 4K-UHD projector is used for a 4:3 image, the image does not ll the width of the
DMD™, creating a pillarboxing effect - 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.

To calculate TRC, use the following formula:

TRC =
Source aspect ratio

Alternatively, you can save time by referencing the following table, which shows the TRC value for some popular image formats:

1.85:1 (Flat), 3840 x 2075 pixelsTRC < 1, not used
1.78:1 (16:9), 3840 x 2160TRC < 1, not used (native resolution)
1.66:1 (Vista), 3585 x 2160 pixelsTRC < 1.07, not used
1.6:1 (16:10), 3456 x 2160 pixelsTRC = 1.11, not used
1.33:1 (4:3), 2873 x 2160 pixelsTRC = 1.33
1.25:1 (5:4), 2700 x 2160 pixelsTRC = 1.42
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.

Calculating the throw ratio with TRC
1. For TRC > 1, amend the basic throw ratio formula as follows:

Throw ratio =
Screen width x TRC
2. Once a throw ratio is established, identify the matching lens from the table:
