Lens Option 1: Throw Distance 1.57 - 1.95x Width of Screen
When only Vertical or only Horizontal Shift is used:
Maximum. Vertical Shift = 90% of screen height (.9 x height)
Maximum Horizontal Shift = 40% of screen width (.4 x width)
Amount of Horizont
al Shift when Vertical is @ maximum:
Maximum Horizontal Shift = 5% of screen width (.05 x width)
Amount of V
ertical Shift when Horizontal is @ maximum:
Maximum Vertical Shift = 10% of screen height (.10 x height)
The maximum shif
t in 2 directions (ex. maximum left and maximum down):
Maximum Vertical Shift w/ Horizontal = 40% of screen height (.4 x height)
Maximum Horizontal Shift w/Vertical = 20% of screen width (.2 x width)
Explanation:
•    0% shift is when the image center is even with the projector lens center - also known 
as zero-degree projection-angle
•    Shifting beyond the maximum values above will cause image loss in corners or edges
•    When Vertical Shift is maximum, Horizontal shift can only be adjusted 5% left or right 
in example above
•    The maximum diagonal movement of the image is expressed as shift in 2 directions, 
this is the maximum combination of     
adjustment (ex. Up & Left, Down & Right, Up & Right, Down & Left)
•    Throw distance does not affect image quality
•    Lens shift does not affect image quality if within above limits
Example: 56 x 100 Screen
TD = 157 to 195 lens to screen
0.90 X 56   = 50.4 up or down
0.40 X 100 = 40.0 left or right
0.05 X 100 = 5.0 left or right
0.10 X 56 = 5.6 up or down
0.40 X 56   = 22.4 up or down
0.20 X 100 = 20.0 left or right
Lens Option 2: Throw Distance 1.95 - 2.74x Width of Screen
When only Vertical or only Horizontal Shift is used:

Maximum Horizontal Shift = 48% of screen width (.48 x width)
Amount of Horizont
al Shift when Vertical is @ maximum:
Maximum Horizontal Shift = 6% of screen width (.06 x width)
Amount of V
ertical Shift when Horizontal is @ maximum:
Max. Vertical Shift = 12% of screen height (.12 x height)
The maximum shif
t in 2 directions (ex. maximum left and maximum down):
Maximum Vertical Shift w/ Horizontal  = 51% of screen height (.51 x height)
Maximum Horizontal Shift w/Vertical = 29% of screen width (.29 x width)
Explanation:
•    0% shift is when the image center is even with the projector lens center - also known     
as zero-degree projection-angle
•    Shifting beyond the maximum values above will cause image loss in corners or edges
•    When Vertical Shift is maximum, Horizontal shift can only be adjusted 5% left or right

•    Lens shift does not affect image quality if within above limits
Example: 56 x 100 Screen
TD = 195 to 274 lens to screen
1.04 X 56   = 58.2 up or down
0.48 X 100 = 48.0 left or right
0.06 X 100 = 6.0 left or right
0.12 X 56   = 6.7 up or down
0.51 X 56   = 28.6 up or down

The examples show  the location of the image position in the lens. The lens can be shifted within the shaded area as shown using the 
normal projection position as a starting point. Note:If lens is shifted in two directions combined, max. range in either direction cannot be
obtained due to rounded off area near edge of lens. (Example: shift up and left). See diagrams below:

Amount of Horizont
al shift when Vertical is @ maximum:
Maximum Horizontal Shift = 7% of screen width (.05 x width)
Amount of V
ertical shift when Horizontal is @ maximum:
Maximum Vertical Shift = 24% of screen height (.24 x height)
The maximum shif
t in 2 directions (ex. maximum left and maximum down):
Maximum Vertical Shift w/ Horizontal  = 48% of screen height (.48 x height)
Maximum Horizontal Shift w/Vertical = 31% of screen width (.31 x width)
Explanation:
•    0% shift is when the image center is even with the projector lens center - also known

Lens Adjustments (Zoom / Focus / Shift)
IR receiver for lens 
zoom / focus motors
Lens zoom and focus are motorized adjustments that are adjustable from the remote control. This is to allow the
installer to adjust focus while at the screen for accurate results. The remote control has over 100 of range to the
projector for long throw distances. The IR Receiver for the lens motor assembly is located on the projector behind
the front RUNCO logo cover. Rotate the logo cover 90 degrees as shown above to reveal the 0.5 diameter IR
Receiver opening.
With IR Receiver revealed on the front of the projector, go to the zoom / focus page of the remote control and
adjust from the screen location for proper size and focus. Be sure to aim the remote toward the projector for best
range. 100 range for lens zoom and focus. The zoom buttons will size the image. Use the focus buttons at the
screen location to resolve the individual pixels. 
						

							15
Use the included 3/16 Hex-head tool to adjust the Vertical lens shift to center image vertically on screen. See the
chart on page 12 for shift range available with the installed lens and screen size.
Next use the same 3/16 Hex-head tool to adjust the Horizontal lens shift to center image horizontally on screen.
See chart on page 12 for shift range available. The tool will automatically center on top of the adjustment nut when
inserted into the access hole.
