    129-012104-XX How the Projector Works The D4K2560/Mirage 4K25 accepts a variety of input signals for projection on front or rear projection screens, typical in commercial or other large screen applications. High-brightness light is generated by a short arc Xenon lamp, then modulated by 3 Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) panels responding to incoming data streams of digitized red, green and blue color information.

  • Page 23: Adjust The Projector Tilt And Level

    Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury. The D4K2560/Mirage 4K25 lens should be centered and parallel with the screen. This orientation ensures ideal lens performance with minimal offset. If this position is not possible (such as when the projector is significantly higher than the center of the screen), it is better to rely on offset rather than extra tilt.
