based on next-generation Digital Light Processing™ 
(DLP™) technology by Texas Instruments™ to 
deliver high quality, crisp, clean images.  
Mirage S+3K/6K/8K and Mirage HD3/6/8 
projectors provide a powerful combination of SXGA+ resolution, high brightness and 
high contrast ratios to produce flawless, realistic three-dimensional graphic images for 
simulation, virtual reality and other stereographic related applications.  
The DW3K/3Kc and DW6K/6Kc provide exceptional image quality in a native 
widescreen format, HD2 resolution and superior color accuracy.  
Additional reliable and compact projectors are the Matrix S+2K/5K/HD2/HD4/HD7. 
With their purpose built simulation features such as RGB color matching, and gamma 
controls, it can be used to simulate any application. 
The DLV1400-DX and DLV1920-DX are designed for the demands of 24/7 control 
room applications and provide long-term reliability and performance.

Refer to Section 6 for a complete list of Specifications including Brightness and 
Contrast and Optional Input Modules 
The projector accepts data/graphics and video input signals for projection onto front 
or rear flat screens. High brightness light is generated by an internal Xenon lamp then 
modulated by three Digital Micro-mirror Device (DMD) panels that provide digitized 
red, green or blue color information. Light from the “on” pixels of each panel is 
reflected, converged and then projected to the screen through a single front lens, 
where all pixels are perfectly superimposed as a sharp full-color image (2D or 3D for 
Mirage models only). 
 
The following listed items are shipped with your projector. Ensure you have received 
all these items before using your projector. 
• User’s Manual  
• IR remote keypad (includes two, 1.5V AA batteries and a mini-stereo cable for 
conversion to wired) 
• Line cord  
• Stereo 3D Cable (Mirage only) 
• Warranty Card

Installation & Setup  
 
013-100199-05 Rev. 01 (03/07)  2-1 
 
The instructions provided here are for those that are familiar with the projector and 
wish to quickly set it up and use it temporarily. Refer to the remaining subsections of 
this manual for a more complete setup. 
Install a Projection Lens  
The projection lens is shipped separately from the projector and must be installed 
prior to setting up the projector. Install the projection lens as described in 4.5 
Replacing the Projection Lens. 
 Remove the lens plug from the lens opening in the projector before installing 
the lens.  
 Remove the lens when shipping the projector and reuse the lens plug to 
prevent dust and debris from entering and settling on the projector’s optical 
components. 
Position the Projector 
Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface and position it so that it is perpendicular 
to the screen at a suitable distance. In general, the further back the projector is 
positioned from the screen, the larger the image will be.  
If required, you can level the projector by adjusting its three feet. With the projector 
positioned perpendicular to the screen the image will appear rectangular instead of 
keystoned.  
For more detailed instructions on positioning the projector refer to Projector Position 
and Mounting later in this section. 
Connect a Source 
Located at the back of the projector is the input panel where all source connections are 
made. Each input is clearly labeled for easy identification.  
Using the appropriate cable(s), connect your source. Connect RGB and YPbPr sources 
to 
INPUT 1 located in the upper right corner of the input panel. Use the DVI-I 
connector at 
INPUT 2 to connect analog or digital display signals. Connect composite 
video to 
INPUT 3 and S-video to INPUT 4.  
NOTE: One of the available optional input modules can be installed at 
INPUT 5 or 
INPUT 6
 for additional connections. 
Refer to 2.3 Connecting Sources for more details on connecting a specific source.
