Installation

 

 

(Skip this step if you are installing a fixed CineWide anamorphic lens.)

Configure Lens Motor Trigger

CineWide with AutoScope maintains constant image height independent of the aspect ratio,

(CineWide with AutoScope)

 

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 VHD Controller for proper AutoScope operation:

 

1.Press MENU on the remote control and enter the Service menu passcode.

2.Select Service from the Main menu.

3.Select Triggers from the Service menu.

4.Assign the trigger output to which the lens motor is connected to the Cinema and Intelliwide 2.35 aspect ratios. This enables the lens motor to move the anamorphic lens into position (in front of the primary lens) when either aspect ratio is selected.

5.To save the trigger settings, press repeatedly to highlight “Save.” Then, press ENTER.

6.Select the Cinema or Intelliwide 2.35 aspect ratio to move the anamorphic lens into position, if it isn’t already. To do this, press CINEMA or SVC on the VHD Controller remote control (Figure 2-6), or press or repeatedly with no menus visible on-screen.
