Introduction TransVision™ 4 is a High Definition Digital Video Projection system comprising of two complementary components: a High Definition Video Projector featuring Dark Chip™ 2 Digital Light Processing (DLP™) technology from Texas Instruments and a Digital Video Processor. The TransVision™ 4 offers an outstanding progressive scan HDTV images with 16:9 aspect ratio and 1280 x 720 (720P) native resolution. The TransVision™ Projector may be floor or ceiling mounted and configured for front or rear projection.
Processor Front Panel Controls The TransVision™ 4 Processor front panel controls include: • A POWER button to turn the system On or Off. • An indicator light (LED) which is lit when the unit is turned on and blinks when a valid IR command is received. — When the LED is DARK the AC power to the unit is turned off. — When the LED is flashing On and Off, power is connected and the unit is in the standby mode. — When the LED is on the unit is powered on.

1. DIGITAL OUTPUT (DVI ) Connect the digital video output from the processor to the projector using DWIN’s DVI-D cable. Special Note about In-Wall Installations and Cable Lengths: A standard rectangular DVI connector is fairly large in size (approximately 2” wide) making it difficult to run through the walls. DWIN’s solution is to terminate one end of the DVI cable with a .75” circular connector that can easily run through a 1” conduit (figure 1).
The following are the pin assignments for the DVI-D connectors: Pin No. Signal Name Pin No. Signal Name Pin No. Signal Name 1 Data 2- 10 Data 1+ 18 Data 0+ 2 Data 2+ 11 Data 1 / Shield 19 Data 0 / Shield 3 Data 2 / Shield 14 +5V Power 22 Clock Shield 6 DDC Clock 15 Ground 23 Clock+ 7 DDC Data 16 Hot Plug Detect 24 Clock- 9 Data 1- 17 Data 0- 3.

Projector Installation — Introduction Physical and electrical installation of the TransVision™ 4 must be performed only by a trained professional who is knowledgeable about both the specifics of the TransVision™ 4 and the requirements of the local building and electrical codes. Physical installation of the TransVision™ 4 may be divided into 3 steps: (1) Pre-installation planning, which includes plotting the projector-to-screen distance. This requires knowledge of the screen size and placement.
Projectors with fixed-pixel imaging arrays, such as DLP or LCD, are not recommended for use with perforated screens. Perforated screens have highly regular microscopic patterns that conflict with the equally uniform pattern in the digital image array. This creates interference, a visual artifact called a “moiré” pattern, which compromises picture quality. To eliminate light spill, a black felt border is also recommended to enhance the viewing experience. A2.
B. Mounting and Throw Distance Calculation Before starting the installation you will need to calculate the projector throw distance and the ceiling to top-of-picture offset. The throw distance and the precise center of the screen are then used to determine the exact location for the physical installation of the projector. �������������� � � ������ ������ � ������ The TransVision™’s zoom lens allows for a wide range of throw distance options — the distance from the projector to the screen.
For floor-mounted installations the picture offset is the distance between the mounting surface of the projector and the bottom of the picture. In order to deliver pictures that are free of keystone distortion, be certain to calculate the offset distance before ordering screens and/or cabinetry. Although some adjustment range is available in floor mounted systems by using the adjustable feet. (2) PREPARING FOR CEILING MOUNT INSTALLATION 2A.
2B. Ceiling Mount Preparation Once the throw distance has been calculated and the screen installed, the next step in the installation is to locate the precise mounting position of the projector. The ceiling mount bracket must be aligned to the middle of the screen and located as close as possible to an electrical source AND a support beam. If the projector is not located properly, it is not possible to compensate for any resulting “keystone” distortion in the projected image. IMPORTANT NOTES: 1.
2C. Ceiling Mount Installation and Projector Mounting The optional ceiling mount kit (CMB) consists of three parts. Before beginning the installation process, first identify each of the three parts of the mounting system as shown in the pictures below. NOTE: The ceiling must be capable of safely supporting the weight of the projector and mount, which is approximately 25 pounds.

Ceiling Mount Kit Installation continued 4. Mount ceiling bracket “A” to the ceiling, making certain that the “FRONT” label faces the screen. 5. Place bracket “B” inside bracket “A” and then secure the two pieces together using the four hex head screws, making certain that the “FRONT” label faces the screen. 6. Turn the projector upside down and place ceiling assembly C over the bottom of the projector, with the “FRONT” label facing toward the lens.
2D. Connecting the TransVision™ 4 System LED A. Connect AC power receptacle to a non-switched 120 VAC outlet using the power cord provided with the TransVision™ 4 system. B. Connect the digital input to the TransVision™ 4 processor using the circular connector of DVI cable. NOTE: The TransVision™ 4 requires the use of a DWIN DVI cable between the Projector and the Digital Video Processor to operate correctly ! C. The IR Receiver and the Power LED are located on top of the projector. D.
(3) FINAL ADJUSTMENTS After the physical mounting is complete, horizontal and vertical adjustments can be made to center and align the projected image to the screen. Before making these adjustments you should: 1. Turn the system On. 2. Adjust the zoom and focus. Use the On-Screen Menus to help refine focus. 3. Once on screen menus can be clearly viewed, go to Screen Setup menu. 4. Make the following horizontal and vertical adjustments to align the white field pattern to the screen.
