Introduction
This manual contains the information required to properly install, configure, setup and operate the DWIN
HD-700 superdata projection monitor. Please make certain that you fully read and understand the
information in this manual before proceeding with any installation.
THIS MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS THAT WILL ASSURE A SAFE AND SUCCESSFUL
INSTALLATION. INSTALLING THE UNIT OTHER THAN AS DESCRIBED IN THIS MANUAL MAY LEAD TO
UNSAFE OPERATION AND/OR CONDITIONS WHICH MAY RESULT IN UNSATISFACTORY OPERATION
OR SHORTENED LIFE SPAN OF KEY COMPONENTS. INSTALLATIONS NOT COMPLYING WITH THESE
INSTRUCTIONS MAY ALSO RESULT IN CONDITIONS THAT VOID THE PRODUCT’S WARRANTY.
The HD-700 is a totally new projector design, combining state of the art circuit components and
proprietary software that makes installation and operation easier than ever before. In order to take
advantage of this breakthrough product, it is helpful to consider the installation process as containing
five distinct steps. Carefully plan for each of them and your installation will proceed quickly and easily.
•Plan the physical aspects of the installation carefully. Use the DWIN’s HD-700 Projector installation
software to make certain that the projector to screen distance is correct for the size and aspect ratio of
the screen.
•Adjust the unit while it is easily accessible, BEFORE mounting it to a ceiling or placing it in the final
installation. Pre-setting the unit up to rough in adjustments for focus, screen size, geometry and
convergence will greatly speed your final installation. In addition, it is always easier to make mechanical
and electronic adjustments on the bench than it is on the ceiling! Don’t forget to make any needed
changes to set the unit for floor/ceiling or front/rear projection throw before the final installation!
•CAREFULLY AND SAFELY mount the unit. For ceiling mount installation, make certain that the mounting
hardware is properly secured to the structural frame. For floor or table mount installations, be certain
that the unit is mounted on a firm, level surface that can support the projector’s weight. Make certain
that all mounting surfaces are free from vibration and that adequate space is provided for ventilation
around the unit.
•Once the unit is set or installed in the actual viewing location, carefully follow the mechanical and
physical installation procedures.
•Finally, make certain that you explain all operating features of the projector to the owner and that any
possible compatibility issues with playback software and the chroma decoder, doubler or quadrupler, or
computer used with the projector are resolved.

Pre Installation Preparations
Planning a projection television installation is a critical part of the installation. Even with the extended range
of mechanical and electronic correction circuitry built into the HD-700, incorrect physical placement of the
projector may place it outside the range of the circuits.
Using the HD-700 Projector installation software provided by DWIN (see www.dwin.com), enter the width of
the screen, the aspect ratio and the mounting position of the projector (ceiling, center of screen or floor). The
program will automatically calculate the correct distance from the screen to the projector. Make certain that
you correctly plan the mounting position and that the information obtained from the planning software is
carefully transferred to the installation venue.
For Floor Mount Installations
Floor mount locations should be level and solid, with an unobstructed view of the screen. DO NOT place the
projector on carpeting or other materials that will interfere with the circulation of air into the ventilation holes at
the bottom of the unit. Also, be careful not to place the projector in a location that is in the direct flow of
heating or cooling vents or in a damp location.
For Center Screen Installations
Follow the same basic instructions as for Floor Mount locations. In addition, make certain that the mounting
location is capable of supporting the weight of the projector.
For Ceiling Mount Installations
Make certain that the ceiling mount bracket is carefully attached to structural beams capable of supporting
the weight of the projector. Then use the handles provided to mount the projector to the bracket. To access
the handles, remove the front portion of the top cover by loosening the two screws on either side of the
green lens and loosening the two screws on the top of the projector. It is not necessary to completely remove
the screws. While holding the cover, pull it upward to remove it from the unit. The handles are the black bars
on the outside of the red & blue lenses.
Plan for connections to the projector of AC power, RGBS connections from the signal source, and a DB-9
connection if the RS-232C port will be used for external control. A separate and properly grounded AC circuit
should be provided. Avoid the use of circuits connected to mechanical equipment, as they may induce noise
in the video system. Pre Installation Adjustment and Set Up
We strongly recommend that these instructions be followed BEFORE final installation. However, if the
projector is already mounted in place, follow these steps to establish proper operating conditions.
Unpacking
When the unit is first received, verify that the carton does not show any signs that may indicate internal
damage. If damage is suspected, make a report to the freight carrier immediately, and follow their claim
procedures. In addition, please report any carrier damage to DWIN.
If there is no obvious sign of damage, carefully unpack the projector. Due to the weight of the unit two
people should lift the projector from the carton. Carefully place the unit in the location where it will be tested
and inspect it again for any signs of concealed damage that may have been incurred in shipping. Report any
interior damage to the freight carrier and to DWIN.
Before proceeding, you may wish to store the carton for future use should the unit require return to DWIN. If
you discard the carton and shipping material, please observe local recycling rules.
Signal Connections
The HD-700 is an RGB/Sync monitor, which means that it requires an external, video line multiplier
(TranScanner) for video playback. A computer interface may be required for display of computer images.
Connect your video and/or data sources to the external interface or processor, and then connect the RGBS
outputs of the processor, doubler, quadrupler or interface to the signal and sync connections on the HD-
700’s front panel.
If composite sync is used, connect it to the “H/C Sync” terminal. If separate horizontal and vertical sync are
used, make connections to the appropriate terminals. The HD-700 will not operate with “sync on green”.
Connect the AC power cord to the front panel and THEN to a wall mounted AC power outlet. The use of
extension cords is not recommended.

Preparation for Adjustment
Before initial adjustments are made to the unit, locate the correct distance from the
screen. This distance should be obtained by using the HD-700 Projector installation
software. Make certain that the front rubber feet are set so that the unit is level and
parallel to the floor. You may wish to verify this with a standard carpenter’s level.
In order to make certain adjustments, it is necessary to remove the front portion of the
unit’s top cover.
Remove the front portion of the top cover by loosening the two screws on either side of
the green lens and loosening the two screws on the top of the projector. It is not
necessary to completely remove the screws. While holding the cover, pull it upward to
remove it from the unit.

Signal Level
Before adjusting focus you may wish to change the signal
level for the on screen test pattern. This adjustment DOES
NOT affect the actual signal level for picture displays, but it
does allow lower signal levels during adjustments so that
they are more precise. Low levels use less beam current.
This, in turn, means that the video spot size is as small as
possible and is not prone to the softening caused by an over
driven signal.
To change the signal level for focus adjustments, first reach
the Focus menu as outlined in the steps shown above. At
the Focus menu, press “5” to display the Signal Level
Menu.

NOTE: Any change to the signal level in this menu will be effective only during focus adjustments. The signal
level will return to normal levels when you return to the Main Menu or cancel the focus adjustment.
Focus Adjustment
Once the signal level has been set, adjust the focus of each color channel using the following steps:
1. From the Focus menu press “1” to display the Green Focus adjustment screen.
2. Adjust the overall optical focus by loosening the wing nut at the rear of the green (center) lens so that it is
loose, but do not remove it. Rotate the lens barrel by holding the lens with one hand and moving the nut
post with the other along the provided track. When the picture is in sharp focus hand tighten the wing nut.
3. Adjust the edge focus by loosening the wing nut closest to the outer edge of the lens, but do not remove
it. Focus the lens by holding the back of the lens with one hand while you rotate the outer barrel with the
other. You may find it easier to grasp the “wings” that protrude up from the barrel to aid in the focus. Tighten
the wing nut when complete.

Geometry Adjust Menu
Geometry is the series of adjustments that correctly align the picture scans to the size of the screen. Just as
important, geometry adjustments are used to compensate for the differences in alignment that result from the
placement of the projector with regard to the screen. The HD-700’s flexibility of geometry adjustments makes
it possible to correct for differences caused by the projector’s “shooting angle” and mounting position as well
as any tilt that may exist in the screen itself.
Geometry is a important part of the projector’s set-up. You should establish the geometry settings after initial
focus adjustments, and check them again after all aspect ratios have been sized and centered to the screen.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The adjustments described below presume that the screen size has not been changed
from the factory setting. If you have changed the screen size please make certain that the adjustments
described in the “Screen Size Change Procedures” are completed before attempting to adjust the geometry.
Once the projector has been focused, select the Geometry Adjustments by first pressing “MENU” on the
remote, and then to display the Main Menu. Press “8” to go to the Adjust menu, and then “3” to reach the
Green Geometry menu.
Green geometry is adjusted first, as the green tube serves as the reference to which the red and blue
channels are matched during all phases of projector installation.
During geometry adjustment there are two modes: cursor movement and circuit adjustment. When you start
the geometry adjustment process the cursor appears as a solid box. When you see this type of cursor you
can use the / / / arrow buttons on the remote to move the cursor to the point on the screen requiring
adjustment. To make a geometry adjustment press the “SEL” button on the remote and note that the cursor
will change to a double outline box.
During the geometry adjustment process the “SEL” button is used to change between cursor movement and
adjustment.

1. Size
Press “1” to select “Size” adjustment
Adjust the height and width by using the / / / arrow buttons to fill the proper aspect ratio for
your screen.
2. Tilt
Tilt adjustments make certain that images are parallel to the edges of the screen, regardless of any
errors that may be induced in the physical installation of the projector. When making tilt adjustments
you may wish to use a carpenter’s level to make certain that the actual settings are accurate.
At the Tilt adjust screen, use the / buttons on the remote to adjust the picture until the vertical line
at the center of the screen is straight up and down. This line will be indicated by hash-marks. Use
the /buttons on the remote to adjust the picture until the horizontal line at the center of the
screen is straight across. 3. Pin
Pin adjustments are necessary to ensure that the line indicated by hash-marks is straight at the
edges. After you've corrected for TILT, press "3" and repeat the procedure for PIN.
Now press "SEL" button to close the cursor square and use the left cursor button to move the cursor
square to the left edge of the screen.
IMPORTANT: Always follow a CENTER to LEFT to TOP to RIGHT to BOTTOM pattern when
adjusting GREEN, RED and BLUE Geometry. As shown below:
Center
Left
Top
Right
Bottom
The left edge line of the screen is now indicated by hash-marks. Open the cursor by pressing Select
and make the necessary adjustments for both TILT and PIN to the far left edge line.
Press Select again to close the cursor and move to the top of the screen using the arrow key.
Repeat TILT and PIN adjustments.
Repeat TILT and PIN adjustments at the right and bottom edges.
4. Lin
This adjustment permits you to adjust the relationship of the geometry from one side of the picture to
the other.
At the Linearity adjust screen, use the /buttons on the remote to adjust the picture until left and
right halves of the picture are equal, and use / buttons on the remote to adjust the picture until
top and bottom halves are equal.
At this point you may press “8” to proceed with the Red Geometry adjustments, or press “MENU” to
exit.

- 15 -
RED GEOMETRY
The adjustments for Red Geometry are similar to those used
to set the Green Geometry, except that instead of using the
screen as a physical reference you will be matching the red
channel to the green settings. The goal for all Red Geometry
adjustments is to match the red lines with hash-marks on the
test pattern directly over the green lines so that the result is
a yellow line.
1. Center
To begin the Red Geometry adjustments, press “1” to
display the Center Adjustment screen. Use the / /
arrow buttons to adjust center of the pattern, this is the most
critical part of this adjustment.
When Red Center adjustments are complete, press “2” to move directly to the next step.
2. Red Tilt and Pin
Here you will adjust the tilt and pin of the red channel so that it matches the green channel. Use the /
buttons until the red line that runs directly though the vertical center of the screen covers the underlying
green line. Then use the /buttons until the horizontal red line at center of the crosshatch pattern covers
the underlying green lines on the pattern.
Repeat this procedure at the LEFT, TOP, RIGHT and BOTTOM grid lines (remember, cursor position will
highlight each particular line with hash-marks) to ensure they are completely matched to the green lines.
BLUE GEOMETRY
As with the Red Geometry, these adjustments will be to a master setting previously established. This time the
blue will be adjusted to the green master channel.
The adjustment procedure for blue is identical to that for red. Follow the steps described in the Red
Geometry section, except that this time you will be adjusting the blue, rather than red channel.

Convergence Adjustments
Once the picture has been focused and adjusted to the screen size for all geometry parameters, the next
step in the set up process is convergence. During convergence the green channel used as a master
reference, since it is shooting straight at the screen, where the red and blue channels are offset from center
and thus must hit the screen at a slight angle. Convergence compensates for these angles, as well as the
electronic circuit drift that occurs in any projection television.
It is important that the convergence system be used as a “fine trim” adjustment, and not to compensate for
installation placement errors. That is why any adjustments relating to screen size, mounting angle and
projector to screen distance should be completed before convergence.
NOTE: In order to make certain that convergence adjustments are made under conditions that are
representative of actual operating temperatures it is always best to let the set warm up for at least 30 minutes
before critical convergence settings are established.
To reach the master convergence menu, first call up the main menu by pressing the “MENU” key on the
remote. From the Main Menu press “8” for the Adjust menu, and then “4” to reach the Convergence menu. At
this point you may first wish to adjust the signal level before proceeding with the actual convergence.
Signal Level Adjustment for Convergence
While the brightness and contrast for the HD-700’s images are set by a combination of the external
controller/decoder and the unit’s own internal controls, those adjustments are designed to present the best
possible picture for viewing. During some set up procedures, however, it may be desirable to change the
signal level only for the purpose of the adjustment. This adjustment DOES NOT affect the actual signal level
for picture displays, but it does permit you to lower the level so that adjustments are more precise. When
signal levels are lower less beam current is used. This, in turn, means that the video spot size is as small as
possible and is not prone to the softening caused by and over drive signal.
Better focus, in turn, deliver the most accurate convergence adjustments. For that reason, we recommend
that, if possible, you lower the signal level to the greatest degree possible when converging the set.
To change the signal level for convergence adjustments, first reach the Convergence menu as outlined in
the steps shown above. At the Convergence menu, press “5” to display the Signal Level menu.
Use the left or right adjustment buttons on the remote to increase or decrease the signal level. When
you have reached the desired signal level press the “MENU” button to return to the Convergence menu.
NOTE: Any change to the signal level in this menu will be effective only while the convergence adjustments
are being made. The signal level will return to normal levels when you return to the Adjust menu or cancel the
convergence adjustment.

Convergence Movement
During convergence there are two modes: cursor movement and circuit adjustment. When you start the
convergence process the cursor appears as a solid box. When you see this type of cursor you can use the
/ / / arrow buttons on the remote to move the cursor to the point on the screen requiring adjustment. To
make a convergence adjustment press the “SEL” button on the remote and note that the cursor will change
to a double outline box.
During the convergence process the “SEL” button is used to change between cursor movement and
convergence adjustment.
Red Convergence
Since the green channel is your master reference, the first step is to converge the red channel to the green.
Before starting, take a moment to look at the cross hatch display on the screen. A perfectly converged set
will show the cross hatch as totally white over a black background. Of course, since the set has not yet been
converged, you will see areas of the screen where red or blue lines will separate from the green reference.
Make a mental note of the areas where there is the greatest amount of divergence of red from green, as
these are areas where you will want to pay special attention to convergence.
To proceed to the next step follow the on screen message and press “ENTER” or "SEL" once to start the
process and a second time to confirm the operation.
Before moving the cursor first look at the screen note that you will see a mostly yellow crosshatch, but there
will be areas where you will see separate green or red lines. Those are the areas you will need to carefully
converge.
Blue Convergence
The process for blue convergence is similar to that for red convergence, except that in this case the blue
channel will be adjusted using the red as a reference.
The process for cursor movement and convergence adjustment for blue is identical to that for red. Press the
“ENTER” or "SEL" button on the remote to switch between the double outline box for adjustment and the
solid box for movement. Use the / / / arrow buttons on the remote to make the convergence
adjustments or move the cursor location.
When all blue convergence adjustments have been made, press “MENU” to return to the master
Convergence menu, and press it one more time to go to the main Adjust menu.

Convergence Memory Purge
During some adjustments, particularly after other service adjustments, you may need to purge, or “dump” the
complete memory of the convergence system.
To empty the memory and start over, you must be at the main Convergence menu.
At that menu press “4” on the remote to select “START OVER”.
The next screen will instruct you to type the word “YES”. Do this using the up and down /arrow buttons
on the remote as the letters change on the display. Use the left/right /arrow buttons to move the “typing”
position to the next letter.
When you have typed “YES”, press the “ENTER” button and the convergence memory will be emptied. You
may now start the convergence process over from the null settings.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To protect from unintended memory erasure, the word “YES” must be typed exactly as
shown, in upper case letters before the memory purge will take effect.

Gray Scale Adjustment
The HD-700 offers a wide range of gray scale adjustments. For best results we recommend first using the
internal test signals offered by the projector. Once those have been made you may wish to use incoming
video for additional gray scale adjustments. Note, however, that any adjustments made to incoming video will
be subject to the variations induced by the chroma decoder in use. It is also advisable to adjust the HD-700’s
internal settings and then make any final trims offered by the decoder, doubler or quadrupler WITHOUT
changing the HD-700’s settings. This will insure accurate control and tracking of all signals.
The steps outlined below are for adjustments that are made by eye, without the use of automated or external
test equipment. Your actual procedures may vary when color analyzers are used, based on the sequence of
the specific test gear. Consult the DWIN Technical Service Department for additional instructions for
calibration using external analyzers, or follow the appropriate DWIN Technical Bulletins.
NOTE: Since the eye reacts slowly to color changes it is strongly recommended that you proceed slowly with
these adjustments, and to make them in as dark an environment as possible.
To begin the Gray Scale Adjustments, start at the master Gray Scale menu. If you are not at that screen,
first call up the main menu by pressing the “MENU” key on the remote. At the Main menu press “8” to reach
the Adjust menu, and then “2” to reach the Gray menu.
The first step is to select the test pattern to be used. The
gray scale pattern is the factory default. To select either the
window pattern or incoming video from a test generator press
“7” from the Gray Scale menu and the display will toggle
from the gray scale pattern to a window pattern to the
external video feed and then back to the test pattern.
Two gray scale adjustments are available for each of the
three color channels, gain and level. Gain impacts the
lighter, or right side of the test pattern while level impacts the
black, or left side of the test pattern. The overall goal is to
obtain the “blackest” black while defining the highest white
level. At the same time, even step increments must be
maintained between the gray scale bars on the test pattern.
NOTE: When making gray scale adjustments with automated test equipment or color analyzers it is desirable
to turn off the on screen menu instructions so that the color of the graphical instructions does not cause the
instruments to register an incorrect reading. To turn the graphics off while making any of the gray scale gain
or level adjustments press the “ENTER” button on the remote. Press it again to toggle the graphic back on.
The easiest way to adjust the gray scale is to start by setting the Green Gain and Green Level to the mid
point of “50”. To do this, press “2” on the remote and use the /buttons until the reading of 50 appears on
the screen. Press “5” and repeat the setting procedure.
Next, set the Red and Blue levels until the bar on the far left side of the screen is as black as possible while
you are still able to see that there is a distinct gray, or slightly less black bar, next to it. Press “4” and then
use the /buttons to adjust the Red Level and ”6” and /to adjust the Blue Level.
Finally, set the Red and Blue gain controls so that the far right bar is as bright as possible while maintaining
an even step of gray from one bar to the next across the screen. The far right bar should not be so bright
that you cannot clearly distinguish eight separate bars on the screen.
Press “1” and then use the / buttons to adjust the Red Gain and ”2” and /to adjust the Blue Gain.
Note: The next three adjustments are available to consumers or end users even when the menu
controls are protected. You should still make them here as a final picture set .

Brightness Adjustment
The brightness setting should be adjusted so that the on screen video maintains proper contrast. The picture
should be adjusted so that black areas are truly black, not light gray or blue tinted.
To adjust brightness, press “MENU” to display the Main Menu, and then press “1”.
The Brightness screen will be displayed, with the input source also being noted in the upper right corner of
the screen. Use the and buttons on the remote to adjust the setting so that it is acceptable.
Contrast Adjustment
The Contrast setting should be adjusted until the video maintains proper overall brightness and contrast.
To adjust contrast, press “MENU” to display the Main Menu, and then press “2” if you are not already at the
correct display screen.
The Contrast screen will be displayed, with the input source also being noted in the upper right corner of the
screen. Use the and buttons on the remote to adjust the setting so that it is acceptable.
Center Convergence
Since the master point convergence has been established during the initial setup, there should be no need
to make a further adjustment at this time. However, it is good practice to check the setting at this point in the
installation. This will also familiarize you with the operation of this setting, as it is a part of the menu system
that will be available to the consumer when the projector is delivered.
Center Convergence is also referred to as “static convergence”, as it is based on a global X/Y axis setting
rather than the more exact point convergence available in the Adjust menu.
To access the Center Convergence, press “MENU” to display the Main Menu, and then press “3”.
The Center Convergence screen will now be displayed, with vertical and horizontal lines across the center of
the screen and a double box cursor in the middle.
Press “1” from the Center Convergence menu to adjust the Red Center. Use the / / / directional arrow
buttons on the remote to move the red lines so that they cover the green lines at the center of the picture to
show a yellow outline.
When the Red Center adjustment is complete, press “2” to adjust the Blue Center Convergence.
Line “3 Pattern” toggles between internal or external cross-hatch pattern.
