Examples of 4:3 images displayed with different aspect ratio settings
The 4:3 setting is best, unless there is some specific reason for wantin\
g the smaller 
Native image, for instance, to maintain the same scale as other images f\
rom the 
same source.
If you are using an anamorphic lens, the 4:3 Narrow setting should be us\
ed. The 
lens will stretch the image to the correct width.
Examples of 2.35:1 images displayed with different aspect ratio 
settings
The 16:9 setting is best, unless there is some specific reason for wanti\
ng the 
smaller Native image, for instance, to maintain the same scale as other \
images from 
the same source.
If you have an anamorphic lens, the Theaterscope setting would be a much better 
option. Because it uses the whole of the DMD, it will be a much brighter\
 image than 
the letterboxed options shown above, and will fill a wider screen if thi\
s is available.
Notes
 The 4:3 image shown here has 
far fewer pixels than the 1920 x 
1080 of the DMD. Your image 
may be different.
 If you are using an  anamorphic  
lens, you will need to use the 
4:3 Narrow setting to correct the 
image.
 The 2.35 image shown here has 
far fewer pixels than the 1920 x 
1080 of the DMD. Your image 
may be different.
 To take advantage of the 
Theaterscope setting, you 
MUST have an anamorphic 
lens.

Diagonal screen sizes
Screen sizes are sometimes specified by their diagonal size (D) in inc\
hes. 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 inc\
hes 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)
16:10 = 1.6:1 
W
 = D x 0.85in  (D x .022m) H = D x 0.53in  (D x .014m)
4:3 = 1.33:1 
W 
= D x 0.8in (D x .02m) H = D x 0.6in  (D x .015m)
D = diagonal (inches)
W = width
H = height

Fitting the image to the screen
It is important that your screen is of sufficient 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 insufficient height or width, 
you will have to reduce the overall image size in order to display the f\
ull image on 
your screen.

Positioning the screen and projector
Optimum viewing position
For optimum viewing, the screen should be a flat surface perpendicular t\
o the floor. 
The bottom of the screen should be 1.2m (4 feet) above the floor and t\
he front row 
of the audience should not have to look up more than 30° to see the t\
op 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 flipped 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 sufficient 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.

Screen size vs throw distance
Throw distance is the distance measured from the front of the projector \
to the 
screen. This is an important calculation in any projector installation as it det\
ermines 
whether or not you have enough room to install your projector with the d\
esired 
screen size, and if your image will be the right size for your screen.
Calculating screen width and throw distance
Throw Distance  =  Screen Width  x  Lens Throw Ratio
Screen Width  = Throw Distance   
        Lens Throw Ratio
The following lens calculations may be useful:
Throw ratio  =  Throw distance 
   Screen width
Throw ratio factor (TRF)   = DMD width in pixels = 1920                           
   image width in pixels    image width in pixels
Therefore:
Screen width   = Throw distance 
   Throw ratio x TRF
Throw distance   = Screen width x Throw ratio x TRF 
Notes
 For more information about the 
relationship between screen 
size, throw distance and lenses, 
see Choosing a lens  on the 
following pages.
  The Throw ratio for a particular 
lens is fixed, but assumes that 
the image fills the width of the 
DMD.
  For images that do not fill the 
width of the DMD, the Throw 
ratio is effectively increased. 
To correct for this in these 
calculations, a Throw Ratio 
Factor (TRF) is used.

Notes
 The High Brightness lenses 
are recommended for the High 
Brightness model, for maximum 
light output.
  The High Contrast lenses are 
recommended for the High 
Contrast models, for maximum 
contrast.
 ONLY the High Brightness 
lenses are recommended for 
the 1080p 330.
 For more information about 
Throw ratio factor (TRF), see 
the previous page.
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
0.77 : 1 fixed lens  110-808 110-022
1.16 : 1 fixed lens  110-809 110-023
1.45 - 1.74 : 1 zoom lens  110-803 110-017
1.74 - 2.17: 1 zoom lens  110-804 110-018
2.17 - 2.9: 1 zoom lens  110-805 110-019
2.9 - 4.34: 1 zoom lens  110-806 110-020
4.34 - 6.76: 1 zoom lens  110-807 110-021
If the image does not fill 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)
 1920 x 817 pixels

A Throw ratio factor (TRF) has been applied to the following chart:

Notes
 The Throw ratio for a particular 
lens is fixed, but assumes that 
the image fills the width of the 
DMD.
  For images that do not fill the 
width of the DMD, the Throw 
ratio is effectively increased. 
To correct for this in these 
calculations, a Throw Ratio 
Factor (TRF) is used.
 
  ONLY the High Brightness 
lenses are recommended for 
the 1080p 330.
Choosing a lens by calculation
For any screen size not listed above, or if you need to be more precise,\
 then use the 
calculations below.
Identify actual width of the image in pixels.
Calculate the Throw Ratio Factor:  TRF = DMD width (1920) 
            Image width in pixels
Identify the screen width required.
Identify the throw distance required.
Throw distance calculations are based on the distance from the outer end\
 of the 
lens, which will vary from lens to lens. Once a lens has been chosen, th\
e figures 
can be checked using the lens extension values given below.
Calculate the throw ratio required.  Throw ratio =  Throw distance        
              Screen width x TRF
Choose a lens with the required throw ratio from the list at the bottom \
of the 
page.
Check from the list that the lens chosen will work at the throw distance\
 required.
Example
An image, 1024 x 768 pixels, screen width 3.0m, throw distance 17m from \
the 
outer end of the lens.
Throw Ratio Factor (TRF) = 1920  = 1.875 
        1024
Throw ratio required =      17   = 3.02 
      3.0 x 1.875
Choose the 2.9 - 4.34 : 1  zoom lens.

 Make sure the rear lens cap is 
removed, before fitting the lens.
 Be careful not to scratch 
the lens surfaces. If you do 
accidentally touch a lens, then 
clean the surface using a lens 
paper.
Fitting the lens
 Remove the two screws securing the front cover to the body of the proje\
ctor.
Push the front cover downwards, then pull it away from the projector.
Push down the lens holder tab.
Hold down the tab, and insert the lens into the lens aperture, making su\
re that 
the plug on the zoom drive mechanism lines up with the socket on the rig\
ht of 
the lens aperture.
