Installation

Configure Lens Motor Trigger: CineWide with AutoScope maintains constant image height independent of the aspect ratio, while using the full display resolution of the projector. It accomplishes this by moving the anamorphic lens in front of the primary lens when widescreen material is being viewed. When the viewer transitions back to 16:9 or 4:3 source material, the anamorphic lens moves out of the light path.

To configure the lens motor trigger on the CL-810 Ultra for proper AutoScope operation:

1.Press MENU on the remote control.

2.Select Service from the Main menu and press ENTER.

3.Use the number buttons on the remote to enter the Service menu passcode when prompted and press ENTER again. Then, press MENU on the remote control.

4.Select Screen Trigger Mode from the Service menu.

5.Set the Screen Trigger Mode to “AutoScope.” This enables the lens motor to move the anamorphic lens into position (in front of the primary lens) when the Cinema or Virtual Cinema aspect ratio is selected.

6.Select the Cinema or Virtual Cinema aspect ratio to move the anamorphic lens into position, if it isn’t already. To do this, press CINEMA or VCINE on the CL-810 remote control (Figure 2-4).

Adjusting the Horizontal (X) Lens Position:

1.Project a white field on the screen.

2.Loosen the Yaw/X-Adjustment Levers underneath the lens.

3.Slowly move the anamorphic lens into place (from right to left or vice versa) so that there are no shadows on either side of the screen:

Too Far Left

Correct position

Too Far Right

4.When the horizontal position is properly set, tighten the Yaw/X-Adjustment Levers to secure the lens in place.
