one to the projector via a serial command. The projector will respond to commands 
sent to this address after the next power-up, after which the IP address will remain in 
projector memory until you enter a new one, or until the DHCP checkbox is re-
enabled. 
NOTES: Only the port and IP address of the projector can be changed. The subnet 
mask is fixed (255.255.255.0).

RS422) at the other physical end of the network. Make sure the “Separate” 
option is selected for “Network Routing” in the Communications menu. If a 
projector should then fail anywhere in the network, communication with the 
remaining projectors can be resumed in the opposite direction using the other 
standard. NOTE: This configuration requires that both standards be available 
from a single controller, or that you use an RS232/RS422 adapter.

 IMPORTANT  
Whenever downloading new projector software to networks, use a 
single-route RS232 network only. DISCONNECT any redundant serial 
cabling and Select “Separate” for “Network Routing” in each projector.  
To relay messages to all ports—RS232, RS422, and 
Ethernet—regardless of the original source, set the 
“Network Routing” option in the Communications 
menu to “All Joined” for...

select “All Joined” for “Network Routing” in the Communications menu so that all 
messages reach all ports throughout the network.

If desired, you can isolate your RS422 communications so that they are not relayed to 
any other network—select the “RS232 and Ethernet joined” option for “Network 
Routing” in the Communications...

AC power levels vary from region to region throughout the world, with 400 VAC 
common in some countries (such as those in Europe and Asia), and 200 AC common 
elsewhere (such as in North America and Japan). To accommodate both possibilities, 
this ballast includes an internal Input Power Range Switch
 for toggling to the level of 
AC available at the installation site, i.e. either 200 or 400 VAC. The line cord plug 
must also match.

When the ballast has been properly configured (see 2.8, Connecting the Ballast) and 
connected to the projection head, connect its integral line cord to AC. Then: 
Before powering 
up, set which size 
lamp is installed. 
This ensures that 
proper power is 
provided to the 
lamp upon 
ignition, 
preventing the 
risk of seriously 
overdriving a 
lamp.

have defined which lamp type is...

NOTE: By default 
from the 
manufacturer, this 
projector is optimized 
for brightness rather 
than wider color 
gamut or higher 
contrast ratio—i.e., 
neither a small-
diameter contrast 
ratio aperture nor the 
yellow notch filter is 
installed in the 
projector. These are 
options. 
Upon powering up the 
projector with a 
newly-
installed/replaced 
lamp, adjust lamp 
position to help ensure 
optimized operation as well as peak brightness at the...

2. COARSE FOCUS: Do a quick preliminary focus and (if available) zoom adjustment 
with the primary lens only (see 3.14, Working with the Lenses). Do not worry 
about consistency across the image at this point, just center focus. 
3. 
CENTER THE IMAGE IN THE LENS: Holding a piece of paper at the lens surface, 
adjust offsets as necessary until the image on the paper is centered within the lens 
perimeter. A full white field works best for this.

1. Adjust focus at the 
far left center edge 
of the image 
(Figure 2.45). If 
possible, reduce 
image size for 
easier image 
analysis. 
2.  If the image 
appears well-
focused on the left 
edge but not on the 
right, then the 
boresight currently differs from one side to the other—i.e., the right side of the 
image is well-focused either in front of
 or behind the screen surface rather than on 
it. To determine where the right side is focusing:

3.  Adjust the horizontal boresight bolt 
(Figure 2.47) as necessary to direct or 
“aim” the lens toward the side of the 
image which focused too close to the 
lens. When both sides appear equally 
blurry, re-focus on the left side of the 
screen.  
4.  Adjust horizontal offset to re-center the 
image on the screen. 
5.  Repeat Steps 4 and 5 until both sides of 
the are well-focused.

place, and check...
