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.
NEVERtouchthelamporreector.
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
causeare
Always allow the projector to cool for 5 minutes before disconnecting
the power, moving the projector or changing the lamp.
Never use strong detergents or solvents such as alcohol or thinners to
clean the projector and lens.

Installation precautions
Theprojectormustbeinstalledonlybysuitablyqualiedpersonnel,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 9 kg (20 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 ±12° in either direction when in use,
as this may cause serious lamp failure, damage the lamp module and
cause extra cost on replacement.

Digital Projection M-Vision 1080p-260 User Manual 1. Introduction
Key features of the projector
Congratulations on your purchase of the Digital Projection M-Vision 1080p 260
projector.
Digital Projection International (DPI), Texas Instruments’ rst DLP® partner and the
original innovator of the 3-chip DLP® projector, proudly introduces the new M-Vision
1080p-260, a high brightness 1080p platform with the imaging delity of Texas
Instruments’ DLP® technology. The single chip M-Vision 260 adds a remarkably
affordable, high-lumen line of 1920 x 1080 displays to DPI’s already extensive
single-chip product line.
The imagery benets associated with the M-Vision are plentiful, including an
expanded color gamut range and bold 3500 lumens. For any commercial venue,
including those contending with high ambient light, the 260 offers bright, saturated
color. Augmenting these benets is the incredible efciency of the single lamp,
meaning the 260 produces the beautiful imagery while consuming a fraction of the
wattage of similar products. Installation is incredibly exible due to the M-Vision’s
compact and lightweight chassis design, and extraordinary lens shift range of 30%
horizontal and 120% vertical. Multiple lens options provide further exibility, with a
throw range from .73 to 2.40:1.
Providing a bright, saturated image from a small-form single-chip display, the
M-Vision 1080p-260 presents a powerful yet remarkably affordable solution for a
variety of commercial and home entertainment applications, including media rooms
and home theaters, training and education, boardrooms and conference centers,
visualization/simulation environments, retail, entertainment, digital media/advertising
and hospitality.

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 ll
the DMD. The projector therefore needs to scale the image.
9 units
Notes
The projector has ve 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 ll 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 tted 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.
4:3 the image is scaled to t a 4:3 screen, using the full height of the
DMD.
4:3 Narrow to be used for 4:3 images in combination with an anamorphic
lens. The image is scaled to t the DMD vertically, but squeezed
horizontally such that the lens will stretch it to the correct ratio.
Native 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 specic reason for wanting the smaller image,
for instance, to maintain the same scale as other images from the same source.

The 4:3 setting is best, unless there is some specic reason for wanting the smaller

If you are using an anamorphic

16:9 Native
The 16:9 setting is best, unless there is some specic 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 ll a wider screen if this is available.

Diagonal screen sizes
Screen sizes are sometimes specied 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)
W = D x 0.92in (D x .023m) H = D x 0.39in (D x .01m)
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
W = D x 0.85in (D x .022m) H = D x 0.53in (D x .014m)
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 sufcient 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 insufcient 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 at surface perpendicular to the oor.
The bottom of the screen should be 1.2m (4 feet) above the oor 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 ipped 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 sufcient 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 =
Lens Throw Ratio
Throw Distance
Notes
For more information about the
relationship between screen
size, throw distance and
converter lenses, see the Lens
charts on the following pages.
Three models of the projector are available, tted with the following lenses:
Throw Ratio Focus range
•
Fixed lens 0.73:1 to be conrmed
•
Short-throw lens 1.56–1.86:1 zoom 2–7m (6.6 - 23ft)
•
Long-throw lens 1.85–2.40:1 zoom 2.5–10m (8.2 - 32.8ft)
Two optional converter lenses are available, which modify the throw ratios as shown
below:
0.8x converter 1.25x converter
•
Short-throw lens 1.25–1.49:1 1.95–2.33:1
•
Long-throw lens 1.48–1.92:1 2.31–3:1
These throw ratios are correct for images that full the full width of the DMD. For
images that do not ll the full width, the throw ratio will be larger. For 4:3 images,
the throw ratio is increased by a factor of 1.33. The effect of this can be seen on the
lens charts on the following pages.
Do not confuse the focus range
with the zoom range:
- the focus range is the distance
over which the image can be
focused using the focus ring.
- the zoom range is the range
over which the throw ratio can
be changed using the zoom
ring.
The converter lens is not
physically compatible with the
Fixed lens.
