1. In the left navigation menu, tap Image Settings > ILS File Setup.
2. Tap Create.

3. Type a name for the ILS file and tap Create.

4. Tap Auto Calibrate.
5. Tap Continue.

Correcting vignetting
An image that is brighter at the center than it is at the sides needs vignetting correction.
If your image suffers from vignetting, the lens has reached the end of its offset travel range. If your
installation does not allow the image to be centered with the center of the screen, move the entire
projector in the direction of lens travel.

Correcting keystone effect

Learn how to adjust the image to correct keystone effect.
Keystone effect occurs when you project an image onto the screen at an angle. As a result, the image
appears distorted and resembles a trapezoid.
If the image suffers from slight keystone effect, it can be corrected with electronic cropping.
If the keystone effect is severe, you can unevenly adjust the feet to compensate for projector tilt. It is
recommended that you use lens offset to align the center of the image to the center of the screen
before you correct the keystone effect.

 Adjusting the image

If one side of the image is longer than another, adjust the tilt and level of the projector (on page 12).
When making the adjustments, set the light source to minimum power.

Horizontal keystone Vertical keystone

Projector skewed horizontally to the screen Projector tilted vertically to the screen

Adjusting vertical boresight

Perform a top and bottom boresight adjustment to fix image focus issues that cannot be corrected by
aligning the projector to the screen and focusing the lens.
Caution! If not avoided, the following could result in minor or moderate injury.
• This procedure must be performed by Christie qualified technicians.

Ensure that the projector is perpendicular to the screen before adjusting boresight.
We recommend that you complete a top and bottom boresight adjustment before adjusting the
horizontal boresight.
A boresight adjustment should only be made when the image cannot be focused uniformly on the
screen by aligning the projector to the screen and focusing the lens. When adjusting boresight, you
must maintain the boresight distance from the lens to the prism plane set by Christie. For example,
when you move the top screw outward, turn the bottom two boresight screws to maintain the overall
distance.
Ensure that the boresight lockdown screws are adequately tightened. Not adequately tightening the
boresight screws can result in excessive onscreen image vibration. After adjusting boresight, evaluate
the onscreen image vibration and re-adjust if needed.
1. Remove the lens surround.
2. Display the DC2K Boresight test pattern.
3. Loosen the set screw (B).

 Adjusting the image

A Cap screw: Adjusts top and bottom boresight

B Set screw: Locks or unlocks the cap screw

4. Turn the vertical cap screw (A) 1/8 of a turn counter-clockwise.

Only adjust vertical boresight 1/8 of a turn or less at one time to maintain optimal lens
performance (factory setup of absolute lens distance to the prism). It is critical that you count
each turn of the cap screws to ensure accurate adjustment.
5. Adjust both left and right horizontal adjusters by half the number of turns, in the opposite
direction of the vertical adjust.
For example, if the vertical adjust cap screw was turned 1/8 of a turn, the left and right
horizontal cap screws should be turned 1/16 of a turn in the opposite direction.
6. Check the screen each time an adjustment is made. If the quality of the projected image has
degraded, turn the vertical adjust cap screw 1/8 of turn clockwise. Ensure the left and right
horizontal adjusters are adjusted equally in the opposite direction to correct axial focus. The
1/8 of a turn is a suggestion only and can be less if needed; however, it should never be
exceeded. Always compensate both left and right horizontal adjustments according to the
vertical adjustment.
7. Check the image after each adjustment. Continue to make adjustments until both top and
bottom are equally sharp. To make sure the lens is in the same relative position, adjust the left
and right horizontal adjusters in the opposite direction at the same time.
8. When the top and bottom of the image are equally in focus lock the set screw to hold it in
position. Recheck the image.
9. If additional adjustment is required, try adjusting horizontal boresight.
10. Replace the lens surround.

Adjusting horizontal boresight

Perform a horizontal boresight adjustment when the image cannot be focused uniformly on the screen
by aligning the projector to the screen and focusing the lens.
Caution! If not avoided, the following could result in minor or moderate injury.
• This procedure must be performed by Christie qualified technicians.

 Adjusting the image

Typically, horizontal boresight does not require adjustment. It should only be adjusted if a large
horizontal angular offset to the screen is required.
When adjusting boresight, you must maintain the boresight distance from the lens to the prism plane
set by Christie. For example, when you move the top screw outward, turn the bottom two boresight
screws to maintain the overall distance.
Only adjust horizontal boresight 1/8 of a turn or less at one time to maintain optimal lens performance
(factory setup of absolute lens distance to the prism). It is critical that you count each turn of the cap
screws to ensure accurate adjustment.
Ensure that the boresight lockdown screws are adequately tightened. Not adequately tightening the
boresight screws can result in excessive onscreen image vibration. After adjusting boresight, evaluate
the onscreen image vibration and re-adjust if needed.
1. Remove the lens surround.
2. Display the DC2K Boresight test pattern.
3. Loosen the right boresight set screw (B).

A Right Boresight Cap Screw

B Right Boresight Set Screw

C Left Boresight Cap Screw

D Left Boresight Set Screw

4. Turn the right boresight cap screw (A) 1/16 of a turn clockwise.
5. Adjust the left boresight cap screw (C) equally in the opposite direction.
6. If the quality of the projected image has not improved, turn the right boresight cap screw 1/16
of turn counter-clockwise. Make sure the left adjuster is adjusted equally in the opposite
direction.
7. Check the screen each time an adjustment is made. The right-side adjustments affect the top
right and bottom left points on the screen. Once both cross hairs are in focus, lock the set
screw for right boresight.
8. Repeat steps 5 to 7 for the left side.
9. Verify that each corner of the screen is equally in focus.
If this is not the case, repeat vertical boresight.
