Remote Control Operating Range
The remote control uses infrared transmission to control the projector. It is not necessary to point the remote directly
at the projector. Provided you are not holding the remote perpendicular to the sides or the rear of the projector, the
remote will function well within a radius of about 10 meters (25 feet) and 15 degrees above or below the projector
level. If the projector does not respond to the remote control, move a little closer.

Installing the projector
The high quality display effect can be guaranteed only when the projector is correctly installed. Generally, the light
source facing the screen should be reduced or eliminated as much as possible. The contrast of the image will be
obviously reduced if the light directly shines on the screen, such as the beam from windows or the searchlight cast on
the image. The image may become faded and not bright.
Precautions for Installation
Caution:
• Projector installation must be done by a qualied professional. Contact your dealer for more information. It is not
recommended you install the projector yourself.
• With ceiling installation, use approved mounting hardware & M4 screws; maximum depth of screw: 14 mm.
Contact your dealer for information about mounting the projector on a ceiling.
• Only use the projector on a solid, level surface, serious injury and damage can occur if the projector is dropped.
Caution:
• Ensure that the hot air from the exhaust vent is not sucked into the projector.
• Ensure the air intake and exhaust vents are unobstructed and keep the required distance from any object.
Below is required minimum distance between the vent and any object.
• All added enclosures should pass a certied thermal evaluation to ensure that the projector does not recycle
exhaust air, as this may cause the projector to shut down even if the enclosure temperature is with the
acceptable operation temperature range.

Connecting to external HDBaseT Transmitter
The projector has a built-in HDBaseT receiver. With HDBaseT Transmitter (optional), the video, RS-232 and LAN
signals can be sent to the projector via a single RJ-45 cable. If the HDBaseT Transmitter you purchased supports the
input and output of the IR remote control, the control signals from the IR remote control can be sent to the DK8500Z

• The baud rate will be switched to 9600 automatically. If RS232 command is sent via external HDBaseT
transmitter.
• If the command is sent via the HDBaseT transmitter, the longest transmission distance is 100 meters. The
projection may be interrupted or interfered, or the control signal cannot be sent if the transmission distance is
exceeded.
• Use the RJ-45 Cat5e or above cable and avoid entwining. Entwining may cause damage or interfering signal
transmission, reduce the transmission distance and degrade the image quality.

Lens Type
There are eight projections lens can be used in DK8500Z; the initial projection position of Ultra Short Throw (UST)
Lens is different to other seven projection lenses. The projector preset two initial projection positions for these two
types accordingly, Center Lens function can moves the lens to the initial position (center) automatically per the setting.
Please set this option to UST Lens if Ultra Short Throw Lens is installed in the projector, otherwise please set it to
Note:
• There are two default positions, one is for regular zoom or xed focus lens (Non-UST), the reference position
is 0% of image width in horizontal shift and 0% of the image height in vertical shift; anther one is for Ultra Short
Throw Lens (UST), the default position is around 0% of image width in horizontal shift and 56% of image height
in vertical shift. When performing Center Lens functions, projector will move the lens to the default position
according to Lens type setting.
• If Ultra Short Throw Lens is installed and UST Lens is selected, you can perform Center Lens to move Lens to
initial projection position automatically.
• If using Ultra Short Throw Lens and setting to Non-UST Lens, the lens will be moved to the position which is
lower than the default position of Ultra Short Throw Lens after performing Center Lens function, it causes the
projected image is blocked by the top cover of the projector. In this case, please perform the Lens shift function
to move up the Lens till the image can be projected normally.
• please make sure Lens Type setting is set to Non-UST Lens then perform Center Lens function if other zoom

setting.
Note:
• There are two default center positions for UST (Ultra Short Throw) Lens and non-UST Lens, make sure Lens
Type setting is correct before performing this function.
• If Ultra Short Throw Lens is installed, make sure the support kit is detached before performing Center Lens.

as follows can be only adjusted when Edge Blend is turned on.
Edge Blend: If the user would like to function Edge Blend, turn this function to On.
Align Pattern: If user turns this function to On, the projector will show pattern for user to adjust the overlapping
part of projection
White Level: White Level is used to set the overlapped area for blending in multi-projection application, the
overlapping When projecting White, the area where the two images overlap is projected twice the projectors’ white
output levels. The solution is to adjust the White Level. First make sure that the units connected to the projectors
are outputting black. Then increase the White Level (Top, Bottom, Left, and Right) until the non-overlap area’s
brightness matches the overlap area.
Black Level: The purpose of Black Level is to increase the black level of non-overlapping area. When projecting
black, the area where the two images overlap projects twice the projectors’ black output levels. The solution is
to adjust the Black Level. First make sure that the units connected to the projectors are outputting black. Then
increase the Black Level (Top, Bottom, Left, and Right) until the non-overlap area’s brightness matches the overlap
area.
Reset: All the settings toward edge blend will set to default.
Screen Format: Sleet the screen format to 16:10, 16:9 and 4:3.
