Dmd Convergence; Preparation; Evaluate Convergence - Christie Solaria One Service Manual

b. Insert a 5 mm hex driver through the louvers until it is firmly seated on the Y axis adjustment screw.
c. Turn the screw slowly clockwise or counterclockwise until you determine the highest value.
d. Remove the hex driver and repeat steps a to c to adjust the Z and X axis.
9. Verify the value in the Intensity field is greater or equal to the number you recorded in step 4. If value is
lower, repeat step 8.

DMD Convergence

Frequently contact a bare metal surface to prevent static build-up.
NOTICE! This procedure should only be performed by Christie accredited technicians.
NOTICE! To prevent overheating of the Satellite Formatter Board FPGA's and DMDs, do not
run the projector with the light engine blower duct removed.
The projector uses three separate DMD panels to produce three separate red, green and blue image
components. To ensure the most accurate color representation across the whole image it is essential the three
panels are perfectly aligned so that all pixels line up. Read this section in its entirety before performing a
convergence adjustment.

Preparation

• Reset the red, green, and blue digital micromirror device (DMD) values to their default settings:
• Tap Menu > Service Setup > Digital Convergence > Default
• Make sure the projected image is centered and focused on the screen. If it is not, a boresight alignment might
be required. See
• Make sure the primary lens is installed.
• Configure the projector for maximum usable brightness for the installed application:
• 14FL for Standard 2D
• ~25-30FL for Single Projector 3D with a silver screen
• 25FL per projector for Dual Projector 3D
• Allow the projector to operate for 15 minutes or longer.
• Monitor the prism temperature during the convergence adjustment and keep it within a few degrees of the
nominal temperature. Lower the lamp power to reduce the temperature.
• The active screen file should be 2048 x 1080 no crop to prevent any scaling of your reference test pattern.
• Use a 2.5 mm driver with heat-shrink tubing (2.0 inch and 6.5 inch lengths).
• The red image component is used as the fixed reference; no adjustment is required. The recommended con-
vergence adjustments are from green to red and blue to green.
• Complete the vertical and rotation adjustment first and then the horizontal adjustment.
