5.6 Work with Lenses
The lens mount secures the primary zoom lens to the cinema projector and provides setup adjustments for 
correct boresight, and manually controlled focus, zoom and offsets. See  6. Adjust optical components if 
required., on page 2-16  for lens installation and boresight instructions. 
The optional Intelligent Lens System (ILS) automates th e process of adjusting the Focus, Horizontal (X) and 
Vertical (Y) Offset, and Zoom in real -time using a motorized lens mount. ILS settings are saved in a file named 
ILS Flat  or ILS Scope .
An anamorphic lens (1.25x) can be in stalled into the optional auxiliary lens mount, then swung into place in 
front of the primary lens to wide n a “squeezed” image into a properly  proportioned “scope” anamorphic 
cinema display. It is typically used in theatres having  side masks that are retracted for “scope” images, or in 
theatres having fixed side masking but a very short throw ratio.

5.7 Present Movies
This section provides information and procedures for using the cinema projector to present movies. It is 
recommended that you read through th is section in its entirety before displaying movies for the first time. 
Before you display movies for the first tim e, verify that the cinema projector is properly installed, aligned, and 
configured. See
 Section 2 Installation and Setup. 
5.7.1 Connect Sources
Connect a digital media storage device or cinema server to one of the 292A or 292B input ports. For a list of 
standard single-link SMPTE 292M Formats, see  Section Appendix A: Specifications.
5.7.2 Use an Anamorphic Lens 
The standard zoom lens on the cinema projector can  display flat images because the native resolution and 
format of the cinema projector closely match the flat  aspect ratio. The installation of an optional anamorphic 
lens requires that the source material is resized to f ill the digital micromirror device (DMD) and the pixels are 
horizontally stretched so that the fu ll 2.39 image width appears on-screen. 
5.7.3 Use a Wide Converter Lens
The optional Wide Converter Lens (WCL) magnifies a flat  image with a format of 1.85:1 to a scope image with 
a 2.39:1 format, while ma intaining the full resolutio n of the source material.
5.7.4 Masking
You use masking to conceal the unused edges of  a screen. These are the two types of masking:
• Top Masking – Movable flat black panels or curtains ar e installed along the top edge of the screen. You raise 
the curtain for flat images, and you lower the curtain for scope images.
• Side Masking – Movable flat black panels or curtains ar e installed on each side of the screen. You close the 
curtain for flat images, and open the curtain  for scope images.
