How to install a lens into the Lens Holder?
1. Remove the foam rubber in the opening of the Lens Holder if not removed yet.
2. Take the lens assembly out of its packing material and remove the lens caps on both sides.
Caution: Do not touch the glass of the lens!
3. Ensure that the Lens Holder stands in the On-Axis position (horizontal and vertical mid position).
4. Place the Lens Holder in the “ locked ” position by moving the lens lock handle (reference 1 image 6-7) downwards, away from
the lens power supply socket (reference 2 image 6-7).
5. Gently insert the lens in such a way that the lens connector matches the socket. To prevent collision of the lens with the critical
electronics inside the projector, ensure you centre the lens and keep it on-axis while approaching.
Caution: Do not accidentally bump with the lens against the electronic boards inside the Lens Holder.
Warning: Do not release the Lens yet, as the Lens may fall out of the Lens Holder.
6. Push the lens completely against the Lens Holder front plate. An audible click should be noticed. Once seated, there may be
no airgap between lens fl ange and Lens Holder front plate.
Caution: Ensure that the lock handle remains in the “locked” position.

Note: For frequent installation and removal of the lens it is recommended to install the lens while the lock handle is in “open”
position (upwards) and put the lock handle in “locked” position once the lens is inserted. Then check if the lens is properly
installed by trying to pull the lens out of the Lens Holder. (this alternative procedure result in less wear of the Lens Holder)
7. Check if the lens is really secured by trying to pull the lens out of the Lens Holder.
8. Activate the corresponding lens parameters for the installed lens. (See user guide of the Communicator chapter Installation >
Advanced > Lens parameters )
Caution: Not using the correct lens parameters could result in lens damage.

9. Perform a lens HOME & RETURN operation. (See user guide of the Communicator chapter Installation > Advanced > Lens
parameters )
Note: The HOME & RETURN operation enables the projector to determine the reference positions of the motorized ZOOM and
FOCUS barrels of the installed lens.
