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.
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 1500 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.

Installation precautions
Connect the LAN cable only to a computer LAN connection. Other
similar connectors may have a dangerously high voltage source.
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 24kg (53lb). Use safe handling
techniques when lifting the projector.
When stacking projectors, the stack MUST be vertical, to ensure that
the stresses are distributed to all frame couplings.
Before installation, make sure that the surface, ceiling or rigging that is
to support the projector is capable of supporting the combined weight
of the projector and lens (see specication for exact weights).
Separate backup safety chains or wires should always be used for each
projector.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the projector chassis. Only
the rigging frame is capable of withstanding the weight of another
projector.
Do not stack more than 3 projectors.
Do not drop or jarr 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° from side to side 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 forwards
and backwards as necessary.

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).
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)
1.66:1 (Vista)
W = D x 0.86in (D x .022m) H = D x 0.52in (D x .013m)
4:3 = 1.33:1
W = D x 0.8in (D x .02m) H = D x 0.6in (D x .015m)
5:4 = 1.25:1
W = D x 0.78in (D x .02m) H = D x 0.625in (D x .016m)

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
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.

The High Brightness lenses are
recommended for the HD-500,
for maximum light output.
The High Contrast lenses are

for maximum contrast.
For more information about
Throw ratio factor (TRF), see
Useful lens calculations, later
in this section.
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
0.63 : 1 xed lens 001-734 102-373
0.96 : 1 xed lens 001-735 102-835
1.2 - 1.44 : 1 zoom lens 001-736 102-374
1.44 - 1.8 : 1 zoom lens 001-737 102-375
1.8 - 2.4 : 1 zoom lens 001-738 102-376
2.4 - 3.6 : 1 zoom lens 001-739 102-377
3.6 - 5.6 : 1 zoom lens 001-740 102-378
If you are simply connecting the output of a camera or computer directly to the
projector, then the image size (in pixels) may well be xed. If, however, you are
using commercially available image processing equipment, such as the Digital
Projection VIP1000, you may be able to resize the image to t the DMD.
If the image does not ll 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.
Full width images, including:
2.35:1 (Scope) 1280 x 544 pixels
1.85:1 1280 x 691 pixels
16:9 = 1.78:1 1280 x 720 pixels (native resolution)
Full height images
A Throw ratio factor (TRF) has been applied to the following charts:
1.66:1 (Vista) 1195 x 720 pixels TRF = 1.07
4:3 = 1.33:1 960 x 720 pixels TRF = 1.33
5:4 = 1.25:1 900 x 720 pixels TRF = 1.42
Method two: by calculation
See the calculations, on the page immediately following the lens chart.

Identify the screen width required.
Identify the throw distance required.
Calculate the throw ratio required. Throw ratio = Throw distance
Screen width x TRF
Choose a lens with the required throw ratio.
Check from the lens charts or the specication (see section 7. Appendix), that
the lens chosen has a sufcient throw range.

using the Lens shift feature to maintain a geometrically correct image.
Any single adjustment outside the ranges specied below may result in an
unacceptable level of distortion, paricularly 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 diagrams to the

Mounting the projector
The projector is designed to be used on a at surface, but the optional rigging frame
will allow it to be suspended from a lighting truss or rigging. The four adjustable feet
under the chassis allow the projector to be lowered onto a at surface without any
danger of hands being trapped between the bottom frame and the surface.
Chassis adjustment
If the projector is to be operated from a at surface such as a projector table, then
adjustment of projector level should be made by turning the four feet under the
chassis.
Fitting the rigging frame
The rigging frame should be secured to the projector using the twelve screws
supplied, as shown in the pictures below. Four screws secure each of the threee
adjuster brackets to its corner post. Fit the screws to the round holes rst, then
t the screws to the oval holes.
Before suspending the projector, make sure that all the frame adjusters are set
roughly midway.

When stacking projectors,
the stack MUST be vertical,
to ensure that the stresses
are distributed to all frame
couplings.
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 and lenses (see
specication for weights).
Do not place heavy objects
on top of the projector
chassis. Only the chassis
corners and the rigging frame
are capable of withstanding
the weight of another
projector.
Do not try to stack more than
3 projectors.
Separate backup safety
chains or wires should
always be used for each
projector.
Stacking projectors
The rigging frame is capable of supporting the weight of up to two other projectors,
using the built-in frame couplings. The projectors can be stacked on top of each
other, or suspended below each other.
Carefully lower each projector down onto the top of the others, making sure that
all four frame couplings engage fully.
Fit a locking pin into each coupling. A ball in the end of the pin prevents the pin
from falling out – to insert or remove a locking pin, press the button on the t-bar
to release the ball.
Align the images from the projectors, following the instructions in section

Overview
Controlling the projector
The projector can be controlled from:
the remote control
the keypad
the RS232 input
the Ethernet input
For more information about controlling the projector using the RS232 and
Ethernet inputs, see Remote communications protocol in section 7.
Appendix.
For information about how to connect the projector, see Connecting the
projector in section 2. Installation, and Connections in section 7. Appendix.
Many features are controlled from the menus using the menu navigation keys on
the remote control or keypad.
For more information about using the menus, see later in this section, Using the
menus.
Some of the menu features, for example brightness, contrast and input preset
operations, can be accessed directly using the control keys at the bottom of the
remote control.
Other features, eg zoom and focus, are controlled using the control keys at the
top of the remote control and keypad.

Digital Projection TITAN HD-500, HD-250 User Manual 4. Controlling the projector
Input modes and settings
Input mode detection
The projector can automatically detect the following parameters from the incoming
video signal:
line frequency
frame rate
interlace / progressive
From these parameters the projector can determine input mode, for example:
input source horizontal vertical mode
composite 15.7KHz 50.0Hz = NTSC
RGB1 31.5KHz 60.0Hz = SDTV 480p
DVI 31.25KHz 50.0Hz = SVGA
When you select a new input source, the green LED near the input connector will
ash, and the searching message will be displayed.
When the input mode has been detected, the LED will show continuously and the
auto detect message will be displayed, for example:
If the input mode cannot be detected, the LED will continue to ash, to show that the
input is still selected. However, the following message will be displayed:
Mode library and mode history
Once an input mode has been successfully determined for the rst time, a set of
default modal settings (picture, geometry and colour), will be copied from the mode
library to the mode history.

4. Controlling the projector Digital Projection TITAN HD-500, HD-250 User Manual
Any subsequent changes that you make to the modal settings will be saved in the
mode history, with the input mode.
If a new signal is detected, the mode history for the previous signal will be saved in
the mode history, and the new mode added, along with a new set of default settings.
Thus the projector builds up a history of input modes, and the required settings for
each mode, depending on actual useage.
Input presets
It may be the case that you need to save more than one set of modal settings for
the same input mode. For example you may have more than one video player or a
selection of lms with different characteristics.
In that case, the current input source and modal settings can be saved to any one of
16 input presets, for recall when the same input source is used again.
When you recell a preset, the projector switches to the saved input source, and
redetects the input mode before applying the saved modal settings.
Notes
In normal use, there should be
adequate memory to record
all likely modal settings in the
mode history.
However, in exceptional
circumstances, the least used
settings will be deleted, to allow
a new mode to be added.
A preset can be applied only to
the same mode for which it was
created. If the detected input
mode does not match, then
settings from the mode history
or mode library will be applied.
