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 configure 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 off 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.

Black level uplift

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:
l Set All to the required amount of black level correction. This will apply equal correction to the black
levels of all colors
l If necessary, use the individual color sliders (Red, Green and Blue) for fine 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,1and2. Both
images have black level uplift applied; as a result, artifacts3and4have 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.
l 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 left1to remove the artifact on the right
, and the Left slider of the projector on the right2to remove the artifact on the left3.

3D menu

Use this menu to enable, disable and set up 3D input, as follows:
l 3D Format — Off, Auto, Side-by-side, Top and Bottom, Dual Pipe and Frame Sequential.
Frame Sequential is for sources where Left and Right eye images are delivered as alternate frames from a single input. Dual Pipe is for sources where Left and Right eye are delivered on separate inputs.
l DLP Link — Off / On.
DLP Link On emits a sync pulse for the 3D glasses via the projected image. DLP Link Off will send the sync pulse to the sync out connector to use with an external third party emitter.
l Eye Swap — Normal and Reverse.
(set to Reverse if the left- and right-eye images are displayed in the wrong order)
l Dark Time — 0.65 ms, 1.3 ms and 1.95 ms.
Set to reduce the effect of banding and image overlapping when viewed through 3D glasses.

3D types

To display a 3D image if is first necessary to select the 3D format. This can either be Frame Sequential or Dual Pipe. These formats are described below:
l 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.
l Frame Sequential For sequential 3D, an external sync is required to identify left and right
frames. If no sync is available from the sequential source, the projector will generate an output sync, but it may then be necessary to manually set the Eye Swap each time the player is started.
Dark Time and Sync Offset need to be set only once, to optimize the image for the glasses in use.

Some 3D settings explained

Dark time
Banding can be caused if the image is displayed before each eye of the 3D switching glasses or ZScreen is not fully open.
Dark Time allows you to minimize this effect.
Eye swap
The outgoing 3D frames are in pairs - the dominant frame being presented first. You can determine which frame should be the dominant one.
By convention the default setting is Left.
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 result is obtained.

The sync signal from the 3D server will be in phase with the frames generated by its graphics card. However, to compensate for switching delays in the glasses or ZScreen, Sync Offset is used to adjust the sync output signal sent to the ZScreen or 3D glasses to minimise overlapping (ghosting in the image when viewed through the 3D glasses.

Basic calculation

Identify the required lens by calculating the throw ratio.
A throw ratio is the ratio of the throw distance2to the screen width1:
1. Use the formula above to obtain the required throw ratio.
2. Allow a tolerance of +/- 3% in the throw ratio calculation and match the throw ratio with a lens from the table below:
Throw ratios Focus range
0.84 - 1.03 : 1 1.5 m - 10 m
1.20 - 1.56 : 1 zoom 1 m - 8 m
Notes
The basic calculation on this page does not take into consideration DMD™ and image size, which could affect the throw ratio.See Full lens calculation on page93 for a more complex and realistic calculation.
When calculating the throw ratio, be sure to use identical measurement units for both the throw distance and the screen width.
See Choosing a lens on the previous page for information about individual lens part numbers

2.00 - 4.00 : 1 zoom 2.5 m - 15 m
4.00 - 7.00 : 1 zoom 4 m - 42 m
3. Ensure the required throw distance is within the range covered by the lens.

Basic calculation example

1. Calculate the throw ratio using the formula. Your screen is 4.5m wide and you wish to place the projector approximately 11m from the screen. The throw ratio will then be
11 ÷ 4.5= 2.44
2. Match the result with the lens table. The lens matching a throw ratio of 2.44 is the 2.00 - 4.00 : 1 zoom lens .
3. Check whether the lens covers the required throw distance. The focus range quoted for the 2.00 - 4.00 : 1 zoom lens is 2.5 - 15m.The required distance of 11m is within the range.

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 fills 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 fill 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 fills 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 fill 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. 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 fill the 4:3 screen seamlessly

Calculating TRC

To calculate TRC, use the following formula:
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 pixels TRC < 1, not used
1.6:1 (16:10) 1920 x 1200 pixels TRC < 1, not used (native aspect ratio)
1.33:1 (4:3) 1596 x 1200 pixels TRC = 1.2
1.25:1 (5:4) 1500 x 1200 pixels TRC = 1.28

Calculating the throw ratio with TRC

1. For TRC > 1, amend the basic throw ratio formula as follows:
Allow a tolerance of +/- 3% in the throw ratio calculation.
2. Once a throw ratio is established, identify the matching lens from the table:
Throw ratios Focus range
0.84 - 1.03 : 1 1.5 m - 10 m
1.20 - 1.56 : 1 zoom 1 m - 8 m
1.50 - 2.00 : 1 zoom 2 m - 12 m
2.00 - 4.00 : 1 zoom 2.5 m - 15 m
4.00 - 7.00 : 1 zoom 4 m - 42 m
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.

Full lens calculation example

Your screen is 4.5m wide; you wish to place the projector approximately 11m from the screen. The source is 4:3.
1. Calculate TRC as follows: TRC = 1.6 / 1.33 = 1.2.
2. Calculate the throw ratio: Throw ratio = 11 / 4.5 x 1.2 = 2.04
3. Allow a tolerance of +/- 3% in the throw ratio calculation and find a match in the lens table.
The table shows that the matching lens is the 2.00 - 4.00 : 1 zoom lens.
4. Check whether the lens covers the required throw distance.
The focus range quoted for the 2.00 - 4.00 : 1 zoom lens is 2.5m - 15m. The required distance of 11 m is within the range.

Fitting the image to the display

If the source image supplied to the projector is smaller than the WUXGA resolution, the image will not fill the display. The following examples show how a number of common formats may be displayed, depending on your DMD™ resolution.

Diagonal screen sizes

Screen sizes are sometimes specified 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.

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.
Notes
See Lens control on page42 for more information on shifting the lens.
Whenever possible, position the projector so that the lens is centered for the highest quality image

Combined shift is reduced
Full horizontal or vertical shift
Any single adjustment outside the ranges specified 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.

Aspect Ratio: Source / 4:3

Aspect ratios explained

The appearance of a projected image on the screen depends on a combination of the following:
l The display resolution is WUXGA with a 1920 x 1200 resolution, corresponding to an aspect ratio of 16:10
l The aspect ratio of the input signal: usually 4:3, 16:9 or 16:10
l The value of the Aspect Ratio setting of the projector:
l 16:9, 4:3, 16:10 and 5:4 stretch the image to the selected aspect ratio. 16:9 leaves black bars at the top and bottom of the screen (letterboxing
effect); 4:3 and 5:4 leave black bars at the sides of the screen (pillarboxing).
l TheaterScope is a special setting used in combination with an anamorphic lens, an optional accessory. It removes letterboxing from a 2.35:1 source
packed into a 16:9 frame.
l Source shows the image with its original aspect ratio, if this does not match the native aspect ratio of the DMD
either fit the full width or height of the display.
