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, a Throw Ratio 
Factor (TRF) is used.
Useful lens calculations
The following lens calculations may be useful:
Throw ratio   =  Throw distance 
   Screen width
Throw ratio factor (TRF)   = 
DMD width in pixels = 1400                          
   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
 
Lens extension
The throw distance calculated above is to the outer end of the lens. For each lens, 
the nominal distance between the front of the projector and the outer end of the lens 
(lens extension) will be as listed below.

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.
  Make sure the rear lens cap is 
removed, before fitting the lens.
 Make sure the front lens cap is 
removed, before switching on 
the projector.
 Be careful not to scratch 
the lens surfaces. If you do 
accidentally touch a lens, then 
clean the surface using a lens 
paper.
 The lens release lever should 
always be set to the locked 
position to prevent the lens 
from falling out.
Zoom drive connector
Fitting the lens
Turn the lens release lever anti-clockwise so that it is pointing upwards, to open 
the lock.
Remove the rear lens cap from the lens.
Insert the lens into the lens aperture, making sure that the plug on the drive 
mechanism engages with the socket on the front of the projector, and that the 
lens is pushed firmly into place.

Notes
 For more information on using 
the Lens shift feature, see 
section 4. Using the menus, 
Using the control keys.
 If the lens is to be shifted in 
two directions combined, the 
maximum range is somewhat 
less, as can be seen below. 
(zoom lens shift shown).
full horizontal or vertical shift 
without distortion
combined shift 
is reduced
Shifting the image
The normal position for the projector is at the centre of the screen. However , you 
can set the projector above or below the centre, or to one side, and adjust the image 
using the Lens shift feature to maintain a geometrically correct image.
Any single adjustment outside the ranges specified below may result in an 
unacceptable level of distortion, paricularly at the corners of the image, due to 
the image passing through the periphery of the lens optics.
If the lens is to be shifted in two directions combined, the maximum range 
without distortion will be somewhat less, as can be seen in the diagrams to the 
right.
The maximum range available with no distortion is dependent on which len\
s is used. 
The tables below show the maximum range for images that fill the DMD. For images 
which do not use the full height or width, extra shift will be possible, up to the limit of 
the lens mount movement.

Mounting the projector
The projector is designed to be used on a flat surface, but the optional rigging frame 
will allow it to be suspended from a lighting truss or rigging.  The four adjustable feet 
under the chassis allow the projector to be lowered onto a flat surface without any 
danger of hands being trapped between the bottom frame and the surface.
Chassis adjustment
If the projector is to be operated from a flat surface such as a projector table, then 
adjustment of projector level should be made by turning the four feet under the 
chassis.
Fitting the optional rigging frame
Before fitting the rigging frame to the projector:
- remove the four feet;
- discard the bracket supplied for use with Titan sx+500 projectors;
- make sure that all the frame adjusters are set midway.
Secure the  rigging frame to the projector using the screws supplied, as shown 
in the pictures below. Three screws secure each of the adjuster brackets to its 
corner post.

Notes
 BEFORE INSTALLING THE 
PROjECTOR, READ  ALL THE 
WARNINGS BELOW  AND 
ALL  THOSE IN  IMpOrTANT 
INFOrMATION  AT THE 
FRONT OF THIS MANUAL.
  The projector weighs 
approximately 31 kg (68 lbs). 
Use safe handling techniques 
when lifting the projector.
 Make sure that the surface, 
ceiling or rigging that is 
to support the projector 
is capable of supporting 
the combined weight of 
the projector and lens (see 
specification for weights).
 Backup safety chains or 
wires should always be used.
 Do not tilt the projector more 
than  ±12° in either direction 
when in use, as this may 
cause serious lamp failure, 
damage the lamp module 
and cause extra cost on 
replacement.

Adjusting the rigging frame
Coarse adjustment of projector level should be made by adjusting the length of 
the supporting wires or chains, or by adjusting the position of the truss or rigging. 
Once the initial coarse adjustment has been made, fine adjustment can be made by 
turning the frame adjusters on the rigging frame:
To tilt the projector forwards and backwards (pitch adjustment), 
turn either the front pair or the rear pair of vertical adjusters, 
taking care to turn both adjusters by the same amount.
To tilt the projector from side to side (roll adjustment), turn either 
the left pair or the right pair of vertical adjusters, taking care to 
turn both adjusters by the same amount.
To rotate the projector around its vertical axis (yaw adjustment), 
turn the single horizontal adjuster at the rear.

Notes
 Before suspending the 
projector, make sure that all the 
frame adjusters are set midway.
 Always make adjustments in 
pairs - never make a single 
adjustment - otherwise 
the projector frame could 
become distorted.
 Do not tilt the projector more 
than  ±12° in either direction 
when in use, as this may 
cause serious lamp failure, 
damage the lamp module 
and cause extra cost on 
replacement.
  It may be possible to use 
the projector in other 
orientations, depending on 
lamp configuration. For more 
information, contact Digital 
Projection.

Notes
 When stacking projectors, 
the stack MUST be vertical, 
to ensure that the stresses 
are distributed to all frame 
couplings.
 Make sure that the surface, 
ceiling or rigging that is 
to support the projector is 
capable of supporting the 
combined weight of all the 
projectors and lenses (see 
specification for weights).
 Do not place heavy objects 
on top of the projector 
chassis. Only the chassis 
corners and the rigging frame 
are capable of withstanding 
the weight of another 
projector.
 Do not try to stack more than 
3 projectors.
 Separate backup safety 
chains or wires should 
always be used for each 
projector.
Stacking projectors
The rigging frame is capable of supporting the weight of up to two other projectors, 
using the built-in frame couplings. The projectors can be stacked on top of each 
other, or suspended below each other.
Carefully lower each projector down onto the top of the others, making sure that 
all four frame couplings engage fully.
Fit a locking pin into each coupling. A ball in the end of the pin prevents the pin 
from falling out – to insert or remove a locking pin, press the button on the end of 
the pin to release the ball.
Align the images from the projectors, following the instructions on the previous 
page and those in  section  3. Getting started, Adjusting the lens and 
Adjusting the projected image.

Signal Inputs
The following inputs are available:
EDID handshaking on the DVI and rGB2 inputs
If you are using a computer DVI card or other source that obeys the EDID 
handshaking protocol, then the card or source will automatically configure itself to 
suit the projector.
If not, then you should refer to the documentation supplied with the source to 
manually set the resolution to 1400 x 1050 or the nearest suitable setting. Switch of f 
the source, connect to the projector, then switch the source back on again.

Notes
 Use only the power cable 
provided.
 Ensure that the power 
outlet includes a Ground 
connection, as this 
equipment MUST be earthed.
 Handle the power cable 
carefully and avoid sharp 
bends. Do not use a damaged 
power cable.
Power connection
When mains power is first applied, the projector will perform a self-test, then go into 
Standby mode.
The Power indicator on the control panel will show amber until the  POWER  
on the remote control or the keypad, is pressed for 3 seconds.
