Important Operating Considerations for Safety  
• Place the projector in a horizontal position  
with no greater than 8-degrees forward or  
backwards tilt.  
• Locate the projector in a well-ventilated  
area without any obstructions to intake or  
exhaust vents. Do not place the projector on  
a tablecloth or other soft covering that may  
block the vents.  
• Locate the projector at least 4' (1.2 m) away  
from any heating or cooling vents.  
• Use only Knoll-approved ceiling mounts.  
The minimum distance between the ceiling  
and a ceiling-mounted projector is 11.8”/30  
cm.  
• Use only the power cord provided. A surge-  
protected power strip is recommended.  
• Refer to this manual for proper startup and  
shutdown procedures.  
• In the unlikely event of the lamp rupturing, discard any edible items placed in the surrounding  
area and thoroughly clean the area along all sides of the projector.  
•Wash hands after cleaning the area and handling the ruptured lamp. This product has a lamp  
that contains a very small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by local, state or federal  
ordinances and regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org.  
Follow these instructions to help ensure image quality and lamp life over the life of the projector.  
Failure to follow these instructions may affect the warranty. For complete details of the warranty,  
see the Warranty section at the end of this User's Guide.

Introduction  
Your new Knoll HD225 projector from  
Knoll Systems is specifically designed  
for home cinema applications. It has  
native 1280x720 resolution. The  
projector is easy to connect, easy-to-  
use, and easy to maintain.  
*The lens cap tether ships in the Documentation Pack. Attach it to the lens cap and  
the projector if desired.  
Connector Panel  
The projector provides two computer and  
four video connectors:  
• one M1-D/A (HD, DVI, and computer)  
• one VESA (HD, HD component, and  
computer)  
• one S-video  
• one composite RCA  
• one component video  
It also has an RS-232 serial connector for  
serial control. The Command Line  
Interface (CLI) specifications and  
commands are on our website.

A 3.5mm mini-jack trigger provides 12-  
volt current. This provides a constant  
output while the projector is on. For  
example, if you connect your projection  
screen to the trigger, when you turn on  
the projector the screen will move down;  
when you turn the projector off, the  
screen will return to the storage position.  
You must turn the trigger on in the  
System menu, see page 21.  
Positioning the projector  
There are a number of factors to consider when determining where to set up  
the projector, including the size and  
shape of your screen, the location of  
your power outlets, and the distance  
between the projector and the rest of  
your equipment. Here are some  
general guidelines.  
1 Position the projector on a flat  
surface at a right angle to the screen.  
The projector must be within 10 feet  
(3 m) of your power source. To  
ensure adequate cable access, place  
the projector at least six inches  
(0.15m) from a wall or other objects.  
Place the projector at least 5.6 feet  
(1.7 m) from the projection screen.  
If you install the projector on the  
ceiling, refer to the installation guide  
that comes with the Ceiling Mount Kit  
for more information. To turn  
the image upside down, see page 21.  
Knoll recommends use of an  
authorized Knoll ceiling mount. The  
Ceiling Mount Kit is sold separately.  
2 Position the projector the desired  
distance from the screen.  
The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format  
determines the size of the projected image. For more information about projected image sizes,  
see page 26.  
The image exits the projector at a given angle. This image offset is 105%. This means that if you  
have an image 10’ high, the bottom of the image will be 0.5’ above the center of the lens.

Video connections  
You can connect VCRs,  
DVD players, camcorders,  
digital cameras, video  
games, HDTV receivers,  
and TV tuners to the  
projector. (You cannot  
directly connect the coaxial  
cable that enters your  
house from a cable or  
satellite company; the  
signal must pass through a  
tuner first. Examples of  
tuners are digital cable  
boxes, VCRs, digital video  
recorders, and satellite TV  
boxes.  
Basically, any device that  
can change channels is  
considered a tuner.) If there  
is more than one output,  
select the highest quality  
one. DVI, Component video  
and RGB (M1, HD15) have  
the best quality, followed by  
S-video, and then  
composite video.

Connecting a video device  
If your video device has more than one output, select the highest quality one. DVI video has the  
best quality, followed by component video, S-video, and then composite video. If the video device  
uses component cable connectors, plug the cable’s green connectors into the green component-  
out connector on the video device and into the green component connector (labeled “Y”  
Component 3) on the  
projector. Plug the component  
cable’s blue connectors into the  
blue component-out connector  
on the video device and into the  
blue component connector  
(labeled “Pb”) on the projector.  
Plug the component cable’s  
red connectors into the red  
component-out connector on  
the video device and into the  
red component connector  
(labeled “Pr”) on the projector.  
If you are using RGB input, plug  
the additional connector into the  
Video 5 connector and turn on  
the RGB Video option in the  
Sources menu. See page 21. If  
the video device uses a round,  
four-prong S-video connector,  
plug the S-video cable into the  
S-video connector on the video  
device and into the S-video 4 connector on the projector. Connect the red and white audio  
connectors from the A/V cable to your source and Audio In connector on the projector, if desired.  
If the video device uses a  
yellow composite video  
connector, plug the A/V  
cable’s yellow connector into  
the video-out connector on the  
video device. Plug the other  
yellow connector into the yellow Video 5 connector on the projector. Connect the red and white  
audio connectors from the A/V cable to your source and the projector. If the video device uses a  
DVI connector, plug the computer cable into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug  
the other connector into the DVI 2 connector on the projector. If the video device uses a VESA  
connector, plug a VESA cable into the video-out connector on the video device. Plug the other  
connector into the VESA 1 connector on the projector.  
Connecting the power cable  
Connect the power cable to the  
connector on the back of the  
projector and to your electrical  
outlet. The Power button on the  
keypad lights up and the LED on the keypad turns solid green.  
NOTE: Always use the power cable that shipped with the projector.

Picture menu  
To adjust the following six  
settings, highlight the setting,  
press Select, use the up and  
down arrows to adjust the  
values, then press select to  
confirm the changes.  
Vertical Keystone: adjusts the  
image vertically and makes a  
squarer image. You can also  
adjust vertical keystone from the  
keypad. If you want the projector  
to automatically adjust the  
vertical keystone, check the Auto  
Vertical check box.  
Horizontal Keystone: adjusts  
the image horizontally and  
makes a squarer image.  
Contrast: controls the degree of  
difference between the lightest  
and darkest parts of the picture  
and changes the amount of black  
and white in the image.  
Brightness: changes the  
intensity of the image.  
Color: (video and component  
sources only) adjusts a video  
image from black and white to  
fully saturated color.  
Tint: (NTSC video sources only) adjusts the red-green color balance in the image.  
Aspect Ratio: aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV screens are usually  
1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. The default is16:9.  
Native: this mode bypasses the internal scaler, displaying the image with no resizing. Since the  
native resolution is 1280x720 and 4x3 video images are approximately 640x480, 4x3 images will  
always be smaller than the display and will be centered in the display. Computer images  
1024x768 or smaller will also be centered in the display. If a 16x9 video source or a 1280x1024  
or larger computer source is viewed, it will display up to 1280 pixels and 720 lines from the center  
of the input.  
16:9: the default is 16:9,  
which preserves the 16:9  
aspect ratio and is designed  
to be used with content that  
is enhanced for widescreen  
TVs.

19  
4:3: resizes the image  
from its original version  
to fit a standard 4:3  
aspect ratio screen. If  
you have a 4:3 source  
on a 16:9 screen, the  
image is placed in a  
16:9 space, so black  
bars appear at the  
sides of the image.  
Letterbox text: preserves  
the 16:9 aspect ratio and  
maximizes readability of  
the text.  
Letterbox: preserves the  
16:9 aspect ratio. If you  
have a 16:9 source and  
screen, the image fills the  
screen. If your source is  
letterboxed, the image is expanded to fill the screen.  
Natural Wide: this  
mode stretches a 4:3  
image to fill the entire  
16:9 screen. The center  
two-thirds of the image  
is unchanged; the  
edges of the image are  
stretched.  
Presets: You can customize the settings for each source and save  
them as a preset. There are three user-definable presets. To set a  
preset for the current source, adjust the image; then choose Save  
User 1, 2, or 3. You can recall these settings in the future by  
selecting the appropriate user presets.  
Gamma: Gamma tables contain preset intensity configurations  
optimized for the input source. You can select a gamma table that has  
been specifically tuned for film, presentation, or photography.  
NOTE: Your viewing preferences may vary. Cycle through the gamma  
options and pick the one you like the best.

20  
Overscan: (video sources only) removes noise around the  
video image.  
Advanced settings  
Sharpness: (video sources only) changes the clarity of  
the edges of a video image. Select a sharpness setting.  
Color Space: This option applies to computer sources. It allows you to  
select a color space that has  
been specifically tuned for the  
video input. When Auto is  
selected, the projector  
automatically determines the  
standard. To choose a different  
setting, turn off Auto, then  
choose RGB for computer  
sources, choose either  
SMPTE240, REC709 or  
REC601 for component  
sources.  
Color Temperature: changes the relative warmth of the colors.  
Color Control: allows you to individually adjust the gain  
(intensity of the color), the offset (the amount of black in the  
color), and the gamma of the red, green, and blue colors.  
The following four options are for computer and component  
sources only.  
Phase: adjusts the horizontal phase of a computer source.  
Tracking: adjusts the vertical scan of a computer source.  
Horizontal/Vertical Position: adjusts the position of a computer  
source.

key on the remote. Also allows selection of a default Startup Source  
and enables or disables Autosource and RGB Video.  
Sources>Startup Source: this determines  
which source the projector checks for first  
for active video during power-up.  
Sources>Autosource: When Autosource  
is not checked, the projector defaults to the  
source selected in Startup Source. If no  
source is found, a blank screen displays.  
When Autosource is checked, Startup  
Source determines which source the  
projector defaults to at power-up. If no  
signal is present, the projector checks the  
sources in order until a source is found or  
until power-down.  
Sources>RGB Video: check this box if you are using a DVD player with RGB output.  
System>Rear: reverses the image so you can project from behind a translucent screen.  
Ceiling: turns the image upside down for ceiling-mounted projection.  
Auto Ceiling: automatically senses when the projector is inverted and turns the image upside  
down. This is “On” by default.  
Auto Power: When Auto Power is  
checked, the projector  
automatically goes into the startup  
state after the projector is powered  
on. This allows control of ceiling  
mounted projectors with a wall  
power switch.  
Display Messages: displays  
status messages (such as  
“Searching” or “Mute”) in the  
lower-left corner of the screen.  
Power Save: automatically turns  
the lamp off after no signals are detected for five minutes. After three additional minutes with no  
signal, the projector powers down. If an active signal is received before the projector powers  
down, the image will be displayed.  
Screen Trigger: turns on the 12-volt DC output switch on the connector panel.

after no signals are detected for a preset number of minutes. The  
image returns when an active source is detected or a remote or  
keypad button is pressed. Screen Save is disabled when Power  
Save is enabled.  
Startup Logo: allows you to display a blank Black, White, or Blue  
screen instead of the default screen at startup and when no source  
is detected. It also allows you to capture and display a custom  
startup screen.  
To capture a custom logo, display the image you want to capture on your computer, highlight  
Capture New, then press Select twice. When complete, the projector confirms the capture.  
The next time you start the projector, the custom logo you captured displays.  
Blank Screen: determines what color is displayed when you  
press the Blank button on the remote.  
PiP: (Picture in Picture) allows you to overlay a smaller  
window showing the video source on top of the larger computer  
source window. You must have both a computer and video source  
connected to use PIP. You can’t show a computer image in the  
smaller PiP window, only a video image. You can select a small,  
medium, or large window. You can also move the PiP window on  
the screen using the PiP Position X and Y options in the menu.  
Press the up and down arrows to change the position.  
Language: allows you to select a language for the onscreen

Maintenance  
Cleaning the lens  
1 Apply a non-abrasive camera lens  
cleaner to a soft, dry cloth.  
Avoid using an excessive amount of  
cleaner, and don’t apply the  
cleaner directly to the lens. Abrasive  
cleaners, solvents or other harsh  
chemicals might scratch the lens.  
2 Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the  
lens in a circular motion. If you  
don’t intend to use the projector  
immediately, replace the lens cap.  
Replacing the projection lamp  
The lamp hour timer in the  
About menu counts the number  
of hours the lamp has been in  
use. When the lamp timer  
reaches the estimated total lamp  
life, the LED on the projector’s  
keypad blinks red (indicating a  
lamp error, see page 26) and a  
dialog box appears each time the  
projector is turned on.  
You can order new lamp  
modules from your dealer.  
1 Turn off the projector and  
unplug the power cable.

module.  
WARNINGS:  
• To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before you replace the lamp.  
• Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp.  
• Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.  
• Do not touch the glass portion of the lamp module. Fingerprints can obscure projection  
sharpness.  
• Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely event that the lamp  
ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The lamp module is designed to contain most  
of these fragments, but use caution when removing it. Before replacing the lamp, clean the lamp  
compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement. This  
product has a lamp, which contains a very small amount of mercury. Dispose of it as required by  
local, state or federal ordinances and regulations. For more information see www.eiae.org.  
5 Carefully remove the lamp  
module by grasping and lifting  
the metal bail wire. Dispose of  
the lamp in an environmentally  
proper manner.

making sure that it is properly  
seated (model SP17).

Cleaning the dust filters  
In dirty or dusty environments, the  
dust filters can become clogged,  
causing high temperatures inside the  
lamp module. These high  
temperatures can impact lamp  
performance and operating life.  
Routine maintenance to remove dust  
and dirt from the filters lowers the  
lamp operating temperature and  
prolongs lamp life. To maximize lamp  
life you will need to clean the filters  
every 250 hours. Lamp filter  
maintenance may need to occur more  
often than 250 hours depending on  
your installation/use environment.  
There are two filters, one mesh filter attached to the dust filter door and one  
metal grid filter adjacent to the lamp door.  
1 Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable.  
2 Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.  
WARNING: To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60  
minutes before you clean or replace the dust filter.  
3 Turn the projector upside down and remove the lamp door. See page 23.  
4 Remove the dust filter door.  
5 Clean the filter using a vacuum set on low  
power.  
6 Replace the dust filter door and the lamp door.  
7 Vacuum the non-removable metal grid filter  
adjacent to the lamp door.  
Using the security lock  
The projector has a security lock for use with  
a cable lock system. Refer to the information  
that came with the lock for instructions on  
how to use it.
