Scheimpflug About this chapter This chapter explains the Scheimpflug principle and when to apply Scheimpflug correction upon the projector. Scheimpflug principle The "plane of sharp focus" can be changed so that any plane can be brought into sharp focus. When the DMD plane and lens plane are parallel, the plane of sharp focus will also be parallel to these two planes.
Scheimpflug 7.1 Scheimpflug introduction What is Scheimpflug? The lens holder has to be adjusted so that the “sharp focus plane” of the projected image falls together with the plane of the screen (Fp1→Fp2). This is achieved by changing the distance between the DMD plane and the lens plane (Lp1→Lp2).

Scheimpflug Perform a lens calibration operation. (See user guide chapter GUI – System Settings – Lens Calibration) Project the Focus white test pattern. Image 7-3 Zoom the lens for maximum image on the screen. Unlock and turn out the 4 set screws (reference 11 Image 7-4) of the Lens Holder by 1 centimeter. Use a 10 mm nut driver for the lock nuts (reference 21 Image 7-4) and use a 3 mm Allen wrench for the set screws.
Page 77
Scheimpflug Scheimpflug adjustment steps: Sharpen the image at the bottom left corner of the screen by turning the upper left Scheimpflug adjustment nut (reference 1 Image 7-6). As a result the focus in the center will fade a bit but that's normal. Caution: Do not remove any of the Scheimpflug adjustment nuts completely from the threaded rod.
Scheimpflug Repeat from step 1 until the projected focus pattern is as sharp as possible in the center, left, right, top and bottom of the screen. Proceed with the procedure “Fixation of the Lens Holder front plate”, page 78. 7.3 Fixation of the Lens Holder front plate When fixing the Lens Holder front plate After performing the procedure for Scheimpflug adjustment or Back Focal Length adjustment the Lens Holder front plate must be secured in such a way that it doesn't disturb the result of the adjustment.
Page 79
Scheimpflug Tip: Fasten the set screw and the Scheimpflug nut alternately, without disturbing the projected image, until the Scheimpflug nut and set screw are completely tightened. Image 7-11 Fasten the lock nut at the lower left of the Lens Holder. Use a 10 mm nut driver. R5906150 /02...

Glossary Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin. The light beam is considered (to be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the light source is less than the HD. Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin.

Glossary to be used. The standard specifies component connection standards with regard to computer interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version of the RS-232 standard, and is functionally identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logical '0' is > + 3V, Logical '1' is < - 3V. The range between -3V and +3V is the transition zone.
