2 Installation and Setup 2.1 Projector Quick Setup and Installation The following instructions are for those preferring a quick setup. Refer to the remaining subsections for detailed setup instructions. Always power down the projector and disconnect all power sources before servicing or cleaning. See the Safety Warnings and Guidelines in 1.2 Safety Warnings and Guidelines. 2.1.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 2. Align the lens interface plate with the lens mount. Align the lens electrical connector with the mating connector on the lens mount. Fully insert the assembly straight into the lens mount opening without turning. Press using your hand as shown. NOTE: When installing the lens, ensure that the lens is not inserted at an angle, as this can cause damage. 3.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 2.1.2 Position the Projector 2 people are required to safely lift and install the projector. Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface and position it so that it is perpendicular to the screen at a suitable distance. The further back the projector is positioned for the screen, the larger the image will be. To level the projector adjust its 3 feet. With the projector positioned perpendicular to the screen the image will appear rectangular instead of keystoned. 2.1.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 2.1.5 Power up After the AC Power has been switched on, the LCD display above the keypad indicates “Please wait” and the 4 LED status indicators on the top cover window switch on to amber. These indicate that the projector is changing its state from powered down to standby. The message “Standby Mode” appears in the display when the projector has completed its initialization and is ready for power up. The 2 lamp status LEDs will go off to indicate that the lamps are off.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 2.2.2 Stacking The M Series projectors can be stacked up to a maximum of 3 projectors high using the Christie stacking frame (118-100107-XX). 1. Turn the projector OFF and disconnect the AC power cord after the cooling fans have stopped. 2. Make sure the base plate is flat. 3. Place the projector into the stacking frame. NOTE: There are two ways of placing the projector into the stacking frame: from the top or from the front. 4.
Section 2: Installation and Setup Stacking Multiple Projectors NOTE: The projectors can be stacked and hoisted in either an upright or inverted positions. 1. With one person positioned on each side of the stacking frame, lift the top stacking frame onto the bottom stacking frame, aligning all four stacking legs between the frames. NOTE: Remove the locking pin from each stacking leg prior to alignment and ensure the four stacking legs are fully seated on the lower stacking frame.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 2.2.3 Basic Optical Alignment Only perform image alignment once the projector is fully assembled and powered up in its final location. Basic image alignment ensures the image reflected from the DMDs is parallel and well-centered with the lens and screen. This initial optical alignment is the foundation for optimizing images on the screen and must be completed before final boresight adjustments.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 2.2.4 Advanced Optical Alignment Boresight Alignment Procedure 1. Display the boresight test pattern by pressing the TEST key on the remote keypad or use the built-in keypad and press the soft key that displays “Test” on the LCD display. Press the UP ARROW KEY to cycle to Boresight, then Enter. 2. Focus the image on cross-hair image I. Evaluate the focus on cross-hair image II and III. If all 3 images are in focus, no further action is required.
Section 2: Installation and Setup 6. Adjust cross-hair pattern II, by adjusting the appropriate cap screw. Adjust until the cross-hair image is in focus with minimal flare. 7. Adjust cross-hair pattern III, by adjusting the appropriate cap screw. Adjust until the cross-hair image is in focus with minimal flare. 8. Repeat step 5, 6, and 7 as required until all 3 cross-hair patterns are in equal sharp focus. If the boresight is acceptable, see step 11.

Section 3: Operation • Help Key: Only available in the On Screen Display (OSD) context; LED is Amber when the menu is being displayed on the projected image display; when no menu is being displayed, the Help key is still enabled if the OSD is enabled. It is only disabled when the entire OSD is set to OFF. • Auto Key: Enabled state when the power is ON, and there are no test patterns on the screen. If the power is OFF or a test pattern displays, the Auto key is disabled.
Section 3: Operation The best auto setup will be obtained under the following conditions: • Input levels, it is best to have an image with saturated (very bright) colors. • Phase, high contrast edges are needed. To determine active window size: • Video images should have whites and blacks in the image. • Wide range video images should have content (including white) that extends to all edges of the image. Channel Select a specific source setup (channel) defined and stored in projector memory.
Section 3: Operation The nominal setting for Gamma Correction of 0 is correct for most signals and conditions. If excess ambient light washes out the image and it becomes difficult or impossible to see details in dark areas, increase the gamma correction setting to compensate. NOTE: The range for this control has changed. After an upgrade from version 1.2 or earlier to version 1.3 or later, the setting for Gamma Correction must be set again.
Section 3: Operation Within A Presentation: Press FUNC followed by two numeric numbers to enable a specific color or colors in the display. For example, will display only red, and will display green data. Eliminating one or more colors can help with certain diagnostics and setups, such as when accurately overlaying one image on top of another from stacked projectors. NOTE: Color enabling can also be implemented from numerous locations within the menu system.
Section 3: Operation • • • • Use the FOCUS and the LEFT ARROW or RIGHT ARROW KEY to improve image clarity as desired.
