Screen requirements
Aspect ratio
Fitting the image to the DMD
If the source image supplied to the projector is smaller than 140 0 x 1050 pixels, 
then the image will not fill the DMD. The following example shows how a number 
of common formats may be displayed.
Images displayed full width
Images displayed full height
Notes
 The images are shown here 
scaled automatically by the 
projector.
  The image may be...

Diagonal screen sizes
Screen sizes are sometimes specified 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 inc\
hes into 
width and height, at various aspect ratios.
2.35:1 (Scope) 
W = D x 0.92in  (D x...

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...

Positioning the screen and projector
For optimum viewing, the screen should be a flat surface perpendicular to the floor . 
The bottom of the screen should be 1.2m (4 feet) above the floor 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...

Notes
 Each time a new lens is 
fitted	to	the	projector,	
the calibration procedure 
must be carried out. See 
Setup menu, in Section 4. 
Controlling the projector.
  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,...

NotesChoosing a lens using the lens charts
Use the chart below to choose which lens best suits your application.
example
For a screen width of 12m at a distance of 35m, the 2.77 - 4.51: 1 zoom lens 
would be best suited.
For the same screen size at a distance of 60m, the 4.51 - 7.53: 1 zoom lens 
would be best suited.
if you need to be more precise, then use the calculations on the page immediately

Notes
 The Throw ratio for a particular 
lens is fixed, and 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, a Throw Ratio 
Factor (TRF) is used. 
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....
