Supplied Accessories
Make sure that the following has been provided. Numbers enclosed in < > show the number of accessories.

Attaching the Lens / Detaching the Lens

Before replacing the projection lens
Return the projection lens to the home position before replacing or removing it. For details on how to return the lens to the home position, refer to the operating instructions of the projector.

Attention

• Make sure that the projector power supply is switched off before attaching or detaching the projection lens.
• After removing the projection lens, store it safely away from vibration or impacts.
• Do not touch the electric contact points of the projection lens with your fingers. Dust and dirt on the contacts may cause contact malfunctions.
• Before attaching the Fixed-focus lens, remove the protective film from the light-projecting surface and the lens cap from the lens.
• Be sure not to touch the light-projecting surface or the surface of the lens. Any fingerprints or smudges on these surfaces will be magnified and lower the quality of the image displayed on the screen.
• The light-projecting surface and lens are made of glass. The lens could be damaged if brought into contact with or rubbed against hard objects. Handle the lens carefully.
• Use a clean, soft, and dry cloth to wipe away dust and dirt from the light-projecting surface and projection lens. Do not use fluffy cloths containing oil, water or dust for cleaning.
• When the Fixed-focus lens is removed from the projector, place it with the light-projecting surface facing downwards.

Attaching the Lens
Unless specified otherwise, the illustrations in these operating instructions show the lens used with the PT-DZ870 projector.

1. With this lens already passed through the lens mount cover that came with your projector, align the positioning guide with the guide groove on the projector, and insert the lens fully.
   • There is a red dot at the bottom right end of the positioning guide.
2. Turn the fixed-focus lens clockwise until you hear a click.
3. Attach the lens mount cover to the projector.
   • Turn the lens mount cover clockwise to fix it in place.

Detaching the Lens

1. Turn the lens mount cover counterclockwise to detach it from the lens and slide it towards the front end of the lens.
2. Hold down the lens release button while turning the lens counterclockwise to release it.
3. Turn the lens mount cover clockwise to reattach it.

Projection relationships

The dimensional relationship between the screen and the projector is shown below.

Dimensional relationship diagram

Note

• The indications of this illustration are premised on aligning the projected image size and position to the full screen.
• This illustration is not drawn to scale.

The mirror reflective surface is inside the fixed-focus lens, and is not visible from the outside.

Note

• The illustrations of projectors in this manual are for informational purposes only and do not represent a specific projector model. Configurations may vary with the model.
• Dimension L4 is the distance from the projector rear panel to the screen.
• Dimension A2 is the distance from the bottom edge of the screen to the bottom of the adjustable projector legs (with the legs fully screwed in).

Attention

• Dimension L4 is not the distance from the projector rear panel to a wall, but the distance from the projector rear panel to the screen. To prevent obstruction of the intake and exhaust vents, install the projector with a clearance at least 500 mm (19-11/16″) from walls and objects. When placing the projector in a confined space, a ventilation and/or air conditioning system is required. Exhaust heat may accumulate when the ventilation is not sufficient triggering the protection circuit of the projector.
• Avoid setting up in places which are subject to sudden temperature changes, such as near an air conditioner or lighting equipment (studio lamps, etc.).

Dimensional relationship

• When using one of PT-RZ120 / PT-RZ970 / PT-RW930 / PT-RX110 / PT-RZ870 / PT-RZ770 / PT-RW730 / PT-RZ660 / PT-RW620 / PT-DZ870 / PT-DW830 / PT-DX100 / PT-DZ780 / PT-DW750 / PT-DX820
  For details on projection distance (L1), and A1, A2, L2, L3 and L4 values, refer to “Projected image size and Projection distance” or “Projection distance formulas” in the Appendix.

• When using a projector other than one listed above Please see “Setting up” in the operating instructions for the projector you are using.

Keystone distortion correction
When attaching this lens for use, regardless of the projector model, set up the projector so that the projected image is rectangular and the back of the projector and the screen are parallel. In addition, depending on the projector used, keystone distortion correction may be feasible after setup.

• When using one of PT-RZ120 / PT-RZ970 / PT-RW930 / PT-RX110 / PT-RZ870 / PT-RZ770 / PT-RW730 /PT-RZ660 / PT-RW620 /PT-DZ870 For keystone distortion in the vertical direction generated within the angle range below, select [MAIN MENU] → [POSITION] → [GEOMETRY] / [GEOMETRY(2D)] → [KEYSTONE] → [VERTICAL KEYSTONE] to perform correction.
  Keystone distortion in the vertical direction greater than this angle and keystone distortion in the horizontal direction can be corrected but the projected image overall will no longer be in focus. Correction feasible angle (α): 0 – 5°

• When using one of PT-DW830 / PT-DX100 / PT-DZ780 / PT-DW750 / PT-DX820 If keystone distortion in vertical direction or horizontal direction is corrected, the projected image overall will no longer be in focus. Set up the projector so that the projected image is rectangular and the back of the projector and the screen are parallel.

• When using a projector other than one listed above Please see “Setting up” in the operating instructions for the projector you are using

Note

• After returning the lens to the standard projection position, lens shift adjustments are possible within the range where the projector will not interfere with the edges of the projected image.
• If the rear of the projector blocks the bottom edge of the projected image, it may also obscure the view of an On-screen display (OSD) that is positioned at the lower edge of the screen. If this happens, open the [DISPLAY OPTIONS] menu and select [ON-SCREEN DISPLAY] → [OSD POSITION] to change display location so that the whole OSD menu can be seen.

Focus Adjustment Function
After setting the lens position, adjust the focus. The focal balance between the center and periphery of the projected image changes depending on the size of the projected image. The lens is equipped with a focus balance adjustment function for the screen periphery.

Adjusting the Focus

2. Turn the periphery focus ring by hand as shown in the figure to adjust the focus in the periphery of the screen.
3. Again check focus at the center of the screen and use the projector controls to make fine adjustments.
