INSTALL THE DCR LENS RETAINER.
Remove the two front
Phillips assembly screws from the lens/mount assembly and
remove the rear retainer (it comes loosely assembled).
Squeeze the retainer with locking tab disengaged to fit into the
projector lens opening and then relax it so that it nests into the
inner rim of the opening with the prongs level and closest to the ceiling.
Once nested, engage the locking tab to prevent release.
PREPARE THE PROJECTOR.
Make sure the projector lens is
horizontally centered in its opening (ie little or no horizontal lens
shift). Adjust the projector roll, tilt and/or yaw so the projector
test pattern lines are square to the screen edges and the test
pattern is centered on the screen. Then ...
Show a 2.4:1 movie
. Set the JVC anamorphic menu setting to
Anamorphic C
. Make sure the projector lens is clean and as dust free
as possible.
INSTALL THE DCR LENS.
After removing the rear DCR lens
cover, install the DCR lens/mount assembly over the retainer
prongs; remove the front protective film; rotate the assembly so
that any visible edges of the movie appear the same on the left
and right; then insert and tighten the two assembly screws to secure
(do not over tighten).
ADJUST THE LENS TILT AND PROJECTOR SHIFT.
Adjust
the projector lens zoom to fill the width of the screen with the
movie. Tilt the DCR lens in its mount and adjust the projector
vertical lens shift to make sure the beam is getting through the
DCR lens to fill the screen. There is only a slight variation in vertical
image height with this adjustment but experimentation may lead to the
best fit. Lock the DCR lens tilt by tightening the single Phillips tilt lock
screw. As desired you may want to adjust any pixel alignment in the
projector (see JVC projector instruction manual).
DECIDE HOW TO WATCH 16:9 CONTENT
. The “classic”
mode to watch 16:9 content is to set the projector anamorphic
mode to
Anamorphic D.
However,
Anamorphic C
,
Anamorphic Off or Zoom
will better fill the full cinema format
screen with 16:9 content with various tradeoffs worth exploring. Note
that menus are always created in 16:9 so some type of switch from
Anamorphic C will be necessary to show complete menu content.
