SIGNAL INPUTS
EDID on the HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA 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.

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

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.

Black Level Uplift
Black in the blended regions appears less dark than in the rest of the image. To
compensate fo 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, 1 and 2. Both images have black level uplift 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.
• Depending on your array, use Top, Bottom, Left and/or Right to reduce the black
level uplift size. In the example below, use the Right slider of the projector on the
left 1 to remove the artifact on the right 4, and the Left slider of the projector
on the right 2 to remove the artifact on the left 3.

The following 3D formats are supported:
• Dual Pipe (LEFT and RIGHT)
The left and right eye images are delivered on two separate HDMI links, which the projector
will interleave for 3D display.
• Frame Packing
This format will be detected, re-synchronised, frame-multiplied and displayed at 96 Hz with
the left eye / right eye dominance automatically extracted from the video data. You need to
optimize Dark Time and Sync Delay manually to suit your chosen switching glasses.
• Top and Bottom

Some 3D settings explained
Dark Time
Ghosting can be caused by the left and right images
overlapping during the time that the ZScreen or 3D
glasses are switching. Dark Time allows you to
minimize this effect.
Eye Swap
The outgoing 3D frames are in pairs - the dominant
frame being presented rst. You can determine which
frame should be the dominant one.
By convention the default setting is Left.
Sync Delay
The sync signal from the 3D server will be in phase with
the frames generated by its graphics card. However,
to compensate for processing delays in the projector,
Sync Delay introduces a delay to the sync output
signal sent to the ZScreen or 3D glasses.

Notes
In order to achieve maximum light
output and a smooth grayscale,
whilst eliminating ghosting,
the following procedure is
recommended:
1. Set Dark Time to a value
appropriate to the glasses or
ZScreen, say 1.3 ms or 1.95 ms.
2. Adjust Sync Offset time to eliminate
ghosting and achieve a smooth
grayscale.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the best

Frame rate multiplication in 3D images
When displaying a low frame rate 3D video, the projector
multiplies the frame rate to obtain a icker-free image. For
example, a 60Hz frame rate is doubled to 120 Hz, or a 48 Hz
frame rate is tripled to 144 Hz.
Frame rate multiplication is an automatic process. It occurs in

and to minimize letterboxing and
pillarboxing.
The Trigger 1 and Trigger 2
functions output 12 V depending on
the set value:
• If Screen is set, the trigger will
be activated when the projector
is switched on.
• If RS232 is set, the trigger will
be activated upon receiving a
protocol command.
• If any of the other values
are set, the trigger
will be activated if the
Geometry > Aspect Ratio
function is set to match the
trigger value. For example, if
Trigger 1 is set to 4:3, it will
output a 12 V charge if you set
Geometry > Aspect Ratio to
4:3.

• Auto Source
If this setting is On, the projector will automatically search for an active input source.
• 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.
• OSD Settings
Access this submenu to adjust the appearance and position of the on-screen display.
• Memory
Access this submenu to save up to four presets containing custom combinations of

THE DMD™
The DMD™
A DMD™ (Digital Micromirror Device™) is a true digital light modulator which utilises an array of up to 2.3 million moving aluminium mirrors,
with each one representing a pixel in the nal projected image. The outermost micromirrors in the array remain inactive (pond of mirrors)
and are not used in constructing the image.

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 Throw distance range
0.77 : 1 xed lens 1.3 - 15 m (4.3 - 49.2 ft)
1.16 : 1 xed lens 1.4 - 25 m (4.6 - 82 ft)
1.45 - 1.74 : 1 zoom lens 1.8 - 9.3 m (5.9 - 30.5 ft)
1.74 - 2.17 : 1 zoom lens 2.2 - 11.8 m (7.2 - 38.7 ft)
2.17 - 2.90 : 1 zoom lens 2.7 - 15.4 m (8.9 - 50.5 ft)
2.90 - 4.34 : 1 zoom lens 3.6 - 22.5 m (11.8 - 73.8 ft)
4.34 - 6.76 : 1 zoom lens 5.5 - 35 m (18 - 114.8 ft)
To choose a lens, either calculate the throw ratio required, or use the lens charts provided in Appendix B at the end of this document.
Notes
For information about individual lens
part numbers, see Appendix A at
the end of this document.
See also Appendix B: Lens Charts
at the end of this document.
Do not use the short lens hood

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 distance
Throw ratio =
Screen width
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 Throw distance range
0.77 : 1 xed lens 1.3 - 15 m (4.3 - 49.2 ft)
1.16 : 1 xed lens 1.4 - 25 m (4.6 - 82 ft)
1.45 - 1.74 : 1 zoom lens 1.8 - 9.3 m (5.9 - 30.5 ft)
1.74 - 2.17 : 1 zoom lens 2.2 - 11.8 m (7.2 - 38.7 ft)
2.17 - 2.90 : 1 zoom lens 2.7 - 15.4 m (8.9 - 50.5 ft)
2.90 - 4.34 : 1 zoom lens 3.6 - 22.5 m (11.8 - 73.8 ft)
4.34 - 6.76 : 1 zoom lens 5.5 - 35 m (18 - 114.8 ft)
3. Ensure the required throw distance is within the range covered
by the lens.
Notes

The basic calculation on this page
does not take into consideration
DMD™ and image size, which could
affect the throw ratio. For a more
complex and realistic calculation,
see Full lens calculation in this
section.
When calculating the throw ratio, be
sure to use identical measurement
units for both the throw distance and
the screen width.

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
11
2. Match the result with the lens table.
The lens matching a throw ratio of 2.44 is the 2.17 - 2.90 : 1
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 WUXGA DMD™.
When a WUXGA 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.

Calculating TRC
To calculate TRC, use the following formula:
1.6 (DMD™ aspect ratio)
TRC =
Source aspect ratio
TRC table
Alternatively, you can save time by referencing the following table, which shows the TRC value for some popular image formats:
2.35:1 (Scope), 1920 x 817 pixels TRC < 1, not used
1.85:1 (Flat), 1920 x 1037 pixels TRC < 1, not used
1.78:1 (16:9), 1920 x 1080 TRC < 1, not used
1.66:1 (Vista), 1792 x 1080 pixels TRC < 1, not used
1.6:1 (16:10), 1728 x 1080 pixels TRC = 1, not used (native resolution)
1.33:1 (4:3), 1440 x 1080 pixels TRC = 1.2
1.25:1 (5:4), 1350 x 1080 pixels TRC = 1.28
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 distance
Throw ratio =
Screen width x TRC
2. Once a throw ratio is established, identify the matching lens from the table:
Throw ratios Throw distance range
0.77 : 1 xed lens 1.3 - 15 m (4.3 - 49.2 ft)
1.16 : 1 xed lens 1.4 - 25 m (4.6 - 82 ft)
1.45 - 1.74 : 1 zoom lens 1.8 - 9.3 m (5.9 - 30.5 ft)
1.74 - 2.17 : 1 zoom lens 2.2 - 11.8 m (7.2 - 38.7 ft)
2.17 - 2.90 : 1 zoom lens 2.7 - 15.4 m (8.9 - 50.5 ft)
2.90 - 4.34 : 1 zoom lens 3.6 - 22.5 m (11.8 - 73.8 ft)
4.34 - 6.76 : 1 zoom lens 5.5 - 35 m (18 - 114.8 ft)
3. Ensure the required throw distance is within the range of the matching lens.
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.
Do not use the short lens hood
with the 4.34 - 6.76 : 1 zoom lens.
For further information about using
the right lens and hood, see The
lens hood in the Installation and
Quick-Start Guide.

Full lens calculation example
Your screen is 4.5 m wide; you wish to place the projector
approximately 11 m from the screen. The source is 4:3.
1. Calculate TRC as follows:
1.6
TRC =
2. Calculate the throw ratio:
Throw ratio =
3. Find a match in the lens table.
The table shows that the matching lens is the 1.74 - 2.17 : 1
zoom lens.
4. Check whether the lens covers the required throw distance.
The range quoted for the 1.74 - 2.17 : 1 zoom lens is
2.2 - 11.8 m. The required distance of 11 m is within the
range.

SCREEN REQUIREMENTS
Diagonal screen sizes
Screen sizes are sometimes specied by their diagonal size (D). When dealing
with large screens and projection distances at different aspect ratios, it is more
convenient to measure screen width (W) and height (H).
The example calculations below show how to convert diagonal sizes into width and
height, at various aspect ratios.
2.35:1 (Scope)
W = D x 0.92 H = D x 0.39
1.85:1
W = D x 0.88 H = D x 0.47
16:9 = 1.78:1
W = D x 0.87 H = D x 0.49
1.66:1 (Vista)
W = D x 0.86 H = D x 0.52
16:10 = 1.6:1 (native aspect ratio for WUXGA projectors)
W = D x 0.85 H = D x 0.53
H = height
Notes
W = width
D = diagonal
