1 Introduction 1.1 Thank you Thank you for purchasing this projector. When referring to the term xVision50 in this document,iit means that the content is applicable for the following DPI products: • iVision50 HD (1920x1080) • iVision50 WUXGA (1920x1200) • iVision50 PN (2560x1080) The iVision50 series projectors set an industry benchmark for projectors in its size and performance category.
2 Safety and compliance 2.1 General safety considerations • Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement cables. Using other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage to the unit. • Always use 3-prong (grounded) power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. CANADA This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. / Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB- 003 du Canada. iVision50-series User Manual - Safety and compliance...

4 Installation 4.1 System considerations Please see Chapter 5 Overview for explanation on the various features of the projector. Installation should only be performed by trained and skilled personnel in order to achieve the desired results. Safety first: Projectors and other equipment that are not mounted properly represent a potential danger to people and may result in injury or death! Creating a successful system installation requires proper skills, competencies and knowledge of the particular system requirements.
A set of optional asseccories is available for this projector, covering anything from cables and lenses to air flow parts and lens control. For information on availability, specifications and pricing, please refer to our web site. iVision50-series iVision50-series User Manualal - Introduction...
4.3 Ceiling and rig mounting Use the three mounting holes provided in the bottom part to securely fix the projector to a ceiling or rig mount. Use M6 screws that protrude maximum 9mm into the projector body. Figure 4-2. Ceiling/rig mounting mounting holes 4.4 Locking the projector The projector can be locked physically by using a so called Kensington lock.
Please keep the caps on until mounting the lens on the projector! Remove lens protection caps before mounting the lens and using the projector. Release button Figure 4-5. Projection lens release button iVision50-series iVision50-series User Manualal - Introduction User Manual - Installation...
4.6.1 Inserting a lens Remove the protection lid on the projector by turning the lid anti-clockwise until it comes loose Remove the protection lids from the lens Insert the lens, making sure the red line marking on the lens points straight up towards the top of the cabinet.
Using the remote control, press the OK key to center the lens or arrow keys to position it (restricted downwards movability). • Using the RS-232 or LAN control interfaces, please refer to the relevant SIS (Simplified Instruction Set) commands available for download on our website. iVision50-series iVision50-series User Manualal - Introduction User Manual - Installation...
4.9 Lens planarity (Scheimpflug adjustment) This adjustment is rarely needed, do not apply it unless it is required. Certain applications require fine adjustment of the lens planarity in order to obtain an image that is focused. The projector is fitted with three adjustment screws (Allen key 3mm/5mm) around the bayonet mount that facilitate such adjustment, a so called Scheimpflug adjust- ment.
If using 3rd party system equipment, such as signal repeaters or switchers, please make sure that EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) information is not lost in translation. Wrong EDID data may result in distorted images, wrong aspect ratios or reduced image resolutions. iVision50-series iVision50-series User Manualal - Introduction User Manual - Installation...

7 Optimising the image The projector has powerful features for picture optimization. This chapter describes details in using these features. All color calibration is done using Digital Projection’s proprietary Color- Max solution. 7.1 Calibration data All our projectors are measured and calibrated with high precision equipment at the factory for the best out-of-box experience.
Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, White. In this mode color points and intensity for each color can be manipulated separately. To change the ColorMax mode please go the menu PICTURE > COLORMAX > DESIRED VALUES > DESIRED COORDS MODE. iVision50-series User Manual - Optimising the image...
7.2 Setting a white point or color temperature After enabling ColorMax set the color temperature in the menu PICTURE > COLORMAX > COLOR TEMPERATURE. Values between 3200K and 9300K can be selected. These color temperatures are tracking the “black body curve”- the black curved line in the center of CIE Chart in Figure 7-7.

The names of the curves are descriptive for their recommended use. Using any of the computer curves for video applications will results in significant image noise. Figure 7-1. Film 2.2 gamma Figure 7-2. Film 2.4 gamma Figure 7-3. Film 2.6 gamma iVision50-series User Manual - Optimising the image...
