Maximizing Light Output

Upon powering up the projector with a newly-installed/replaced 
lamp, adjust lamp position to help ensure optimized operation as 
well as peak brightness at the screen—you do not need an image 
displayed yet. Once you have done this LampLOC

 adjustment, 

the lamp will be well centered and distanced correctly from the 
remainder of the illumination system.
At the TPC, automatically optimize lamp position by pressing the 

DO AUTO

 button in the 

Advanced: Lamp

 menu. Watch the 

gauge on this menu. After 2-3 minutes, with the projector using an 
internal light sensor, the best lamp position will be established and 
the 

DO AUTO

 button will no longer be disabled. At this point, 

light output is optimized. 

NOTE

:

 Lamp must be on and the shutter open during LampLOC

 adjustment, 

however the projector does not need to be displaying an image. 

2.9.1 Determining Screen Brightness (fL)

In order for the TPC to display screen brightness in footlamberts (fL), you must measure screen brightness at 
both extremes of lamp power (minimum and maximum) for a given lamp type, and record these two readings 
in the TPC 

Admin: Lamp

 menu available to installers. These measurements establish a range (stored in 

memory) from which the TPC can interpolate all other lamp power settings, converting them to approximate 
footlamberts for display in the menus. Repeat the calibration if you ever switch to a different lamp type/size.
For more information about menus and footlamberts, refer to 

Section 3 Basic Operation

.

2.10 Basic Image Alignment

NOTE: 

Assumes projector is fully assembled and powered up in its final location. 

This procedure ensures that the image reflected from the DMDs is parallel to and well-centered with both the 
lens and screen. This initial optical alignment is the foundation for optimizing images on the screen, and must 
be completed before final boresight adjustments. To save the focus, offset and zoom settings to the channel, 
you must make the adjustments using the motorized lens mount adjustment features in the 

Main: Lens

 menu 

or 

Custom: Lens

 menu from the TPC. Using the Emergency Override knobs on the lens mount to adjust these 

positions does not save the settings to the channel. They are designed for temporary/emergency use therefore 
hone reference settings will be lost once the channel changes. If used, click 

Lens Reset

 from the 

Advanced: 

Lens

 menu to ensure ILS settings are properly recalled. Ensure the

 

CP2000-XB is properly positioned relative 

to the screen before you begin.
