    5. Lenses & lens holder Lens shift, zoom & focus Motorized lens adjustment The Prometheus is equipped with a motorized lens shift functionality and a motorized zoom & focus functionality. Maximum shift range The lens can be shifted with respect to the DMD which result in a shifted image on the screen (Off-Axis). A 100% shift means that the centre point of the projected image is shifted by half the screen size.

  • Page 82: Back Focal Length Adjustment

    5. Lenses & lens holder Back Focal Length adjustment When to adjust the Back Focal Length? If a lens is used with a throw ratio suited for the application, (lens selection depends on projection distance and screen size) typically one would NEVER need to adjust the Back Focal Length of the projector. A Back Focal Length adjustment is only required in case the Focus range of the installed lens does not capture the projection screen either for FLAT and/or for SCOPE.
  • Page 83 5. Lenses & lens holder How to adjust the Back Focal Length? 1. Unlock and loosen the 4 set screws (reference 11 image 5-28) of the Lens Holder by 1 centimeter. Use a 10mm nut driver for the lock nuts (reference 21 image 5-28) and use a 3mm Allen wrench for the set screws. Image 5-28 2.
  • Page 84 5. Lenses & lens holder FOCUS Image 5-31 5. Is it possible to focus the center of the projected image using the motorized focus control (Local Keypad) ? Ensure that the lens is zoomed for maximum image on the screen (WIDE). If yes, nominal position is good for sharp focus in the middle of the projected image.
  • Page 85 5. Lenses & lens holder If yes, the Back Focal Length is correctly adjusted. If no, repeat with step 4. 9. Is the projected image in the corners as sharp as in the middle? If yes, proceed with the procedure "Fixation of the Lens Holder front plate", page 86. If no, Scheimpflug adjustment is required.

  • Page 86: Scheimpflug Adjustment

    5. Lenses & lens holder Scheimpflug adjustment What has to be done ? 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). The closer the lens plane comes to the DMD plane the further the sharp focus plane will be.
