Notes on Remote Control Operation  
• In most situations, you can simply point the remote control at the screen which will reflect the IR signal from the re-  
mote back toward the IR receiver on the projector. In some cases, however, ambient conditions may prevent this. If  
so, point the remote control at the projector and try again.  
• If the effective range of the remote control decreases, or it stops working, replace the batteries with new ones.  
The remote control may fail to operate if the infrared remote sensor is exposed to bright sunlight or fluorescent lighting.

3.2 Installation Considerations  
Proper installation of your projector will ensure the quality of your display. Whether you are installing a projector tempo-  
rarily or permanently, you should take the following into account to ensure your projector performs optimally.  
Installation Type  
Choose the installation type that best suits your needs: front or rear screen, floor mount or inverted mount. Table 3-1  
compares these various installation methods.  
Advantages  
Considerations  
Front Screen, Floor Mount Installation  
• Shares floor space with audience  
• Easy to set up  
• Can be moved or changed quickly  
• Easy to access  
Front Screen, Inverted Mount (ceiling) Installation  
• Installation is more permanent  
• Projector access is more difficult  
• Does not take up audience space  
• Projector is unobtrusive  
• Projector cannot be accidentally moved  
Rear Screen, Floor Mount Installation  
• Projector is completely hidden  
• Projector is easily accessed  
• Requires separate room  
• Installation cost is usually higher  
• Usually good ambient light rejection  
Rear Screen, Inverted Mount (ceiling) Installation  
• Projector is completely hidden  
• Requires separate room  
• Usually good ambient light rejection  
• Installation cost is usually higher  
Rear Screen, Floor Mount with Mirror  
• Projector is completely hidden  
• Requires separate room  
• Usually good ambient light rejection  
• Installation cost is usually higher  
• Requires less space behind screen than other rear  
screen installations  
Table 3-1: Projector Installation Options  
Ambient Light  
In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the screen. Contrast ratio in your images will be noticeably  
reduced if light directly strikes the screen, such as when a shaft of light from a window or floodlight falls on the image.  
Images may then appear washed out and less vibrant.

Throw Distance  
Throw distance is the distance measured from the front of the projector to the screen. This is an important calculation  
in any projector installation as it determines whether or not you have enough room to install your projector with a de-  
sired screen size and if your image will be the right size for your screen.  
You can quickly estimate the throw distance by taking the width of the screen and multiplying it by the lens throw ratio;  
see Figure 3-2. The result of this calculation tells you roughly how far back the projector should be positioned from the  
screen in order to project a focused image large enough to fill the screen.  
Estimated Throw Distance  
Throw Distance (TD) = Screen Width (w) x Lens Throw Ratio

Two models of the H9080FD are available, one with 1.56-1.86:1 lens (PA03500-002) and the other with 1.85-2.40:1  
lens (PA03500-001). With optional zoom adaptors throw ratios of 1.24 – 3.0 can be achieved.  
The standard H9080FD offers throw ratios between 1.85:1 and 2.40:1.  
With the optional, short-throw lens, the H9080FD offers throw ratios between 1.56:1 and 1.86:1.

Vertical and Horizontal Position  
Proper placement of the projector relative to the screen will yield a rectangular, perfectly-centered image that com-  
pletely fills the screen.  
Ideally, the projector should be positioned perpendicular to the screen.  
The lens center should be aligned with either the top or bottom edge of the screen areas. The lens should be centered  
in the middle of the screen. See Figure 3-3.

When installing, ensure that you use only UL Listed ceiling mounts.  
Note  
For ceiling installations, use approved mounting hardware and M4 screws with a maximum screw  
depth of 8 mm (0.31inch).  
The construction of the ceiling mount must be of suitable shape and strength. The ceiling mount  
load capacity must exceed the weight of the installed equipment, and as an additional precaution  
be capable of withstanding three times the weight of the equipment (not less than 48 kg) over a  
period of 60 seconds.

Folded Optics  
In rear-screen applications where space behind the projector is limited, a mirror may be used to fold the optical path,  
as shown in Figure 3-4. The position of the projector and mirror must be accurately set. If you are considering this type  
of installation, contact your dealer for assistance.  
Screen  
Mirror  
Figure 3-4: Folded Optics  
Other Considerations  
Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation:  
• Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the projector away from heating and/or air  
conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause drifts in the projector circuitry, which may affect perform-  
ance.  
• Keep the projector away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy such as motors and transformers.  
Common sources of these include slide projectors, speakers, power amplifiers and elevators.  
• Utilize optical offset prior to tilting or aiming projector at screen.  
• Keep optics, lens and port glass clean for best performance and image quality.  
Allow at least 50 cm clearance around the exhaust vent.  
Note  
Ensure that the intake vents do not recycle hot air from the exhaust vent.

Lens Shift  
The H9080FD has a lens shift capability which allows the vertical movement of the image without moving the projector.  
Lens shift is generally expressed as a percentage of the screen height. For ceiling mounted projectors, the lens can be  
moved 120% (0.6V) downward, while the lens can be moved 120% (0.6V) up or down on a desktop mounted projector.  
Vertical Lens Shift:

3.3 Mounting the H9080FD  
There are several methods for mounting the projector. Depending on your chosen installation, one method may be  
more suitable than another.  
Floor Mounting (Upright)  
In typical front and rear screen installations, the projector can be mounted to a secure and level surface such as a  
table or cart. Carts are useful when moving a projector during a presentation or from site to site. If possible, lock the  
wheels when it’s in position to prevent it from being moved during a presentation.  
Ceiling Mounting (Inverted)  
For fixed installations, and for those that want the projector out of sight or have a limited space for projector and audi-  
ence, you can invert the H9080FD and suspend it from the ceiling using a specially-designed ceiling mount fixture.  
Use only the Vivitek-approved ceiling mount kit designed for your projector. Install the mount kit  
according to the instructions provided with it.  
Note  
When installing, ensure that you use only UL Listed ceiling mounts.  
Note  
For ceiling installations, use approved mounting hardware and M4 screws with a maximum screw  
depth of 8 mm (0.31inch).  
The construction of the ceiling mount must be of suitable shape and strength. The ceiling mount  
load capacity must exceed the weight of the installed equipment, and as an additional precaution  
be capable of withstanding three times the weight of the equipment (not less than 48 kg) over a  
period of 60 seconds.  
Adjusting the Projection Angle  
If the screen is significantly higher or lower than the projector, you can also tilt the projector at a slight angle. In a ceil-  
ing installation, you do this by adjusting the ceiling mount.  
For a floor installation, turn the adjustable feet at the bottom of the projector to adjust the projection angle.  
If you do this, you may need to vertically shift the image to compensate. For detailed instructions, refer to Lens  
Adjustments on page 32.

Contrast: On your external test pattern source, select a stepped, gray-bar pattern like the one shown in Figure 4-10.  
Figure 4-10: Typical Gray Bar Pattern for Adjusting Contrast  
Select Contrast from the IMAGE menu. Use the or buttons to adjust the contrast up until the top two bars be-  
come almost the same brightness, then down just until the brightness change between these bars is consistent with  
the other bars.  
Brightness and Contrast controls are interactive. A change to one may require a subtle change to  
the other in order to achieve the optimum setting.  
Note  
Color Saturation: To adjust the overall color intensity, select Color Saturation from the IMAGE menu. Decrease this  
setting if colors are overly saturated; increase it if colors appear muted or washed out.  
Color Tint: Tint or “hue” is the ratio of red to green in the color portion of the image. To adjust the tint, select Color  
Tint from the IMAGE menu. Decrease this setting to shift the hue toward red; increase it to shift the hue toward green.  
Like the Brightness and Contrast controls, the color and tint controls are interactive. A change to  
one may require a subtle change to the other in order to achieve the optimum setting.

To adjust this, select Sharpness from the IMAGE menu and press ENTER. On your external test pattern source, se-  
lect a pattern like the one shown in Figure 4-12.  
Figure 4-12: Typical Test Pattern for Adjusting Sharpness  
• Sharpness (Simple Mode): Adjust as needed, looking for white edges around the transitions from black to gray  
and differently-sized lines in the “sweep” patterns at the top and bottom. Lower the sharpness setting to elimi-  
nate them.  
• Sharpness Mode: Sharpness Mode allows or prevents access to the detailed sharpness controls in this menu.  
In most cases, Simple mode provides a sufficient level of control to produce the best picture from the most popu-  
lar sources. In Simple mode, only the Sharpness (top-most) slider is adjustable; the others are grayed out.  
• Horizontal Sharpness / Vertical Sharpness / Diagonal Sharpness: Use these controls to enhance image detail  
along horizontal, vertical and diagonal edges respectively.  
• Sharpness Overshoot: Use the Sharpness Overshoot control to minimize or eliminate rings or shadows on domi-  
nant edges that cannot be removed using the “simple” Sharpness control.  
• Horizontal Texture / Vertical Texture / Diagonal Texture / Texture Overshoot: Use these controls to remove arti-  
facts from textured areas that cannot be removed using the “simple” Sharpness control.  
• Noise Threshold: The Noise Threshold setting adjusts the frequency below which the Sharpness controls have  
an effect. Frequencies above the threshold are considered “noise.”  
Generally, the higher the setting, the more noticeable the effect of any adjustments will be.

Noise Reduction: To apply noise reduction to the source signal, select Noise Reduction from the IMAGE menu and  
press ENTER.  
Figure 4-13: Noise Reduction Sub-Menu  
Noise Reduction is useful for clearing up noisy images from interlaced SD sources.  
• Noise Reduction (Simple Mode): Use the or buttons to adjust as desired, keeping in mind that reducing  
noise (which reduces high frequencies) may also soften the image.  
• Noise Reduction Mode: Noise Reduction Mode allows or prevents access to the detailed noise reduction con-  
trols in this menu.  
In most cases, Simple mode provides a sufficient level of control to produce the best picture from the most popu-  
lar sources. In Simple mode, only the Noise Reduction (top-most) slider is adjustable; the others are grayed out.  
Choose Advanced mode if you need more precise control over noise reduction. In Advanced mode, only the top  
slider is grayed out.  
• General Noise Reduction: General Noise Reduction is temporal and spatial noise reduction for all types of  
inputs. The scene is analyzed for differences from frame to frame and reduces those differences that are not de-  
termined to be motion.  
• Block Artifact Reduction: Use this control to reduce or eliminate so-called “block artifacts” in MPEG-compressed  
video signals (digital broadcasts or DVDs). Set it as needed to minimize distortion within horizontal and vertical  
block boundaries.  
• Mosquito Noise Reduction: Use this control to reduce or eliminate so-called “mosquito noise” in MPEG-com-  
pressed video signals. Set it as needed to minimize distortion around the edges of moving objects, moving  
artifacts around edges and/or blotchy noise patterns superimposed over the objects.  
Overscan: Some television programs are produced based on the assumption that older television sets may not  
display the outer edges of the broadcast picture area. Overscan effectively hides these inactive, outer edges of the  
image. Choose one of the following:  
• Off: This setting leaves the image as-is.  
• Crop: This setting adds a mask at the left and right edges of the source active image equal to 3% of the dis-  
played horizontal resolution, and at the top and bottom edges equal to 3% of the displayed vertical resolution.  
• Zoom: This setting adds a factor to the scaling of the source active image so that the vertical and horizontal  
resolutions are 106% of the size determined by the aspect ratio function. Anything outside of the original image  
area is removed.

ADVANCED  
Use the controls in the ADVANCED menu, shown in Figure 4-16, to perform advanced image adjustments.  
Figure 4-16: H9080FD ADVANCED Menu  
Color Space: Select Color Space from the ADVANCED menu to choose the color space of the source signal for  
HDMI, RGB, and component connections.  
The default setting, Auto, functions as follows:  
• HDMI: If the Auxiliary Video Information (AVI) infoframe contains color space and/or range data, the H9080FD  
uses that information. Otherwise, for RGB sources, the H9080FD uses the RGB-Video color space. For compo-  
nent SDTV and EDTV resolutions, REC601 is used. For other component video resolutions, REC709 is used.  
• RGB: If Hsync or Vsync signals are present, the H9080FD uses the RGB-PC color space. Otherwise, REC601 is  
used for SDTV and EDTV sources, and REC709 for all other sources.  
• Component: For SDTV and EDTV resolutions, the H9080FD uses the REC601 color space. For all other resolu-  
tions REC709 is used.  
In most cases, the Auto setting determines the correct color space to use. If it does not, you can force the H9080FD  
to use a specific color space. Choose one of the following:  
• REC709 sets the color space matrix to that defined in ITU-R BT.709.  
• REC601 sets the color space matrix to that defined in ITU-R BT.601.  
• RGB-PC uses RGB color space and sets black at 0,0,0 RGB and white at 255,255,255 RGB, assuming an 8-bit  
image.  
• RGB-Video uses RGB color space and sets black at 16,16,16 RGB and white at 235,235,235, assuming an 8-bit  
image, to correspond to the luminance values defined in digital component standards.

Video Standard: Select Video Standard from the ADVANCED menu to specify the color system for composite  
video or S-Video input signals.  
Different countries use different formats for video signals. Select the appropriate Video Standard for your region:  
• Auto: The color systems are automatically identified and the format is set accordingly.  
• NTSC: This is the standard format used mainly in the United States and Japan.  
• PAL: This is the standard used in Europe, Australia and many other parts of the world, typically with a 50Hz  
frame rate.  
• SECAM: This is a standard format used mainly in France and Russia.  
Gamma: Select Gamma from the ADVANCED menu to choose a DLP de-gamma curve. Used correctly, the  
Gamma control can improve contrast while maintaining good details for blacks and whites.  
If excess ambient light washes out the image and it becomes difficult or impossible to see details in dark areas, low-  
er the gamma setting to compensate. This improves contrast while maintaining good details for blacks. Conversely,  
if the image is washed out and unnatural, with excessive detail in black areas, increase the setting.  
• CRT sets the gamma to 2.5.  
• Film sets the gamma to 2.2.  
• Cinema is similar to Film gamma but differs in dark areas of the image to correspond to the function that video  
cameras use to create images.  
• Bright sets the gamma to 2.0.  
• Graphics should only be used for computer presentations that require increased brightness at the cost of gray-  
scale accuracy.  
Color Temperature: Select to set the projector’s color temperature. Range: Warm, Standard (default), Cool, Cooler.  
DLP Frame Rate: Select DLP Frame Rate from the ADVANCED menu to choose the output frame rate. You can  
have the H9080FD automatically determine the optimum frame rate, or you can force it to use a specific frame rate.  
The default setting, Auto, frame locks to the main source if it has a vertical refresh rate of between 48 and 62Hz.  
Vertical refresh rates of from 24 to 31Hz are doubled. Frame rates between 31 and 48Hz and greater than 62Hz are  
converted to 60Hz.  
• Select 48Hz to force the output frame rate to 48Hz. Use this setting to eliminate 2:3 pull-down judder with 60Hz  
film-based sources.  
• 50Hz and 60Hz force the output frame rate to 50Hz and 60Hz respectively.  
Color Gamut: Press the or buttons to select the Golor Gamut values. The default setting is Auto.  
BrilliantColor: Press the or buttons to enable or disable BrilliantColor.  
Dynamic Iris: Press the or buttons to enable or disable Dynamic Iris.  
Adaptive Contrast: Adaptive Contrast enhancement expands the light and dark portions of an output image ac-  
cording to the mean luminance of the input image.

RGB Adjust: To remove any trace of color from the white areas of the projected image, choose RGB Adjust from  
the ADVANCED menu and press ENTER. This displays the RGB Adjust sub-menu, shown in Figure 4-17.  
Figure 4-17: RGB Adjust Sub-Menu  
• Offset: Use the Offset controls in the RGB Adjust sub-menu to correct color imbalances in the dark areas of  
the image. A good way to do this is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of dark gray areas, such as a 30 IRE  
“window” pattern. If the gray areas contain traces of red, green or blue, decrease the Offset for that color.  
• Gain: Use the Gain controls to correct color imbalances in the bright areas of the image. A good way to do this  
is to use a test pattern consisting mostly of solid white areas, such as an 80 IRE “window” pattern. If the white  
areas contain traces of red, green or blue, decrease the Gain for that color.  
The Gain controls increase or decrease the full-scale input range; the Offset controls shift the entire range, re-  
sulting in a change in brightness.  
Generally, higher Gain settings reduce the image contrast; higher Offset settings reduce the image  
brightness.

Fine Sync: To fine-tune the position and other image attributes, choose Fine Sync from the ADVANCED menu and  
press ENTER. This displays the Fine Sync sub-menu, shown in Figure 4-18.  
Figure 4-18: Fine Sync Sub-Menu  
• V Position: This control adjusts the vertical position of the image within the designated image area, up to 25 per-  
cent of the image height up or down.  
• H Position: This control adjusts the horizontal position of the image within the designated image area, up to 25  
percent of the image width left or right.  
• Phase (RGB or Component sources): This control adjusts the phase of the pixel sampling clock relative to  
the incoming signal. Adjust the phase when an RGB or Component image still shows shimmer or “noise” after  
Tracking has been optimized.  
Adjust the Phase after adjusting Tracking (see below). If some shimmer from a video or HDTV  
source persists, use the Noise Reduction controls (described on page 44) to remove high-frequency  
noise from the signal.  
Tip  
For best results, use a good test pattern such as a smooth gray consisting of a clear pattern of black and white  
pixels, or a similar “half on, half off” graphic image. Adjust the slidebar until the image stabilizes and each pixel  
is clearly defined. You may notice that you can stabilize the image at more than one point. Use either setting in  
such cases.  
• Tracking (RGB or Component sources): Tracking determines the frequency of the pixel sampling clock, indicat-  
ed by the number of incoming pixels per line, so that all pixels generated by a particular source are sampled.  
Steady flickering or several soft vertical stripes or bands across the entire image indicates poor pixel tracking.  
Proper pixel tracking helps ensure that the image quality is consistent across the screen, that aspect ratio is  
maintained and that pixel phase (see above) can be optimized.  
• Sync Level (Component sources only): Select Sync Level to adjust the voltage level of the H9080FD Sync signal  
detection circuitry.  
Sync Level adjustment is occasionally necessary when a DVD player or HDTV source signal drops “below  
black” (for example, during scenes with explosions or when subtitles are present) and causes the projector to  
temporarily lose sync. If the Sync Level from the source is persistently too low, the projector won’t sync with the  
source at all.  
The range is from 50 to 256 millivolts (mV) inclusive. The default setting is 240 mV and should rarely require ad-  
justment.
