Installing and
Adjusting the
CineWide Anamorphic
Lens
If you are installing a CineWide-equipped projector, proceed as follows to install and
adjust the anamorphic lens. Note that some components shipped with your projector may
differ slightly from what is shown in these instructions.
Attach Lens Mounting
Assembly to Lens Motor
Carriage Plate (CineWide
with AutoScope) or Base
Plate (fixed CineWide)
1. Remove the two Z-Adjustment Levers and 1/4-20 Fiber Washers from the bottom of
the lens mounting assembly.
2. Place the Lens Mounting Assembly on top of (or under, if the projector is inverted) the
Lens Motor Carriage Plate or Base Plate, so that the two threaded posts at the
bottom of the Z-Adjustment Plate pass through the corresponding slots on the
carriage plate or base plate.
3. Secure the Lens Mounting Assembly to the plate with the Z-Adjustment Levers and
Washers that you removed in Step 1.
It is extremely important that the primary lens is properly
adjusted before you install the anamorphic lens. Ensure that
the 16:9 or 4:3 image from the primary lens is perfectly
centered on the screen.
Note
If this is an AutoScope installation, leave enough space between
the projector and the lens mounting assembly to allow the lens to
move out of the light path without the assembly coming into
contact with the projector front jewelry.
