Manual or motorized lens adjustment
The DP-1500 projector can be equipped with a motorized or manual lens shift functionality and/or a motorized or manual zoom &
focus functionality. A DP-1500 projector with a manual shift can be recognized by the two knobs on the top of the projector (see
image 5-10). A DP-1500 projector with a motorized zoom & focus can be recognized by the electrical lens socket upon the lens
holder.
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. In other words, the centre point of the projected image falls
together with the outline of the image in an On-Axis projection. Due to mechanical an optical limitations the shift range is limited as
well.
All DC2K lenses have a shift range of 50% up/down and 15% left/right. This range is valid for all throw ratios. Only the 0.98" DC2K
Zoom (1.95–3.2 : 1) lenses with item numbers
R9855934 and R98559341 have a larger shift range of 128% up/down.
