ADJUSTING THE LN-11S1A LENS
To adjust the LN-11S1A lens, an adjustment method 
that uses the remote controller included with a 
VP11 or VP15 series projector is described here. 
For details on the method of moving the anamorphic 
lens, refer to “BASIC OPERATION” on page 3.
1.
Before starting LN-11S1A lens adjustment,
projector installation and initial settings 
must be completely finished. Be sure to 
complete initial settings and adjustment 
of the projector itself, while referring to 
the projector’s user’s guide. Turn on the 
projector’s power and display the internally 
generated cross-hatch test pattern.
2.
Aim the remote controller included with the
VP11 or VP15 series projector at the remote 
control receiver of the lens slider and press 
the AUX1 button to move the anamorphic 
lens to the operating position. Check that 
the center of the LN-11S1A anamorphic 
lens in the horizontal direction is aligned 
with the center of the projector’s lens in 
the horizontal direction. If the centers are 
not aligned, adjust by turning the screws 
shown in the figure to the right in the 
direction of the arrow. Refer to Figure 27.
Figure 27
Note:
If the anamorphic lens and projector are not
adjusted correctly, the test pattern being projected
may be distorted.
You can easily align lens centers between
your projector and LN-11S1A and adjust 
the tilt of LN-11S1A as well, if you mark a 
certain position at your screen as a guide to 
align.
Note:
When you mark the position, take care not to
blemish your screen.
3.
If the test pattern is distorted, adjust by
loosening the screw on the side of the 
anamorphic lens so that the light being 
projected passes through the center of 
the anamorphic lens as much as possible. 
Refer to Figure 28. 
Figure 28
Note:
Never look directly into the lens. Always confirm
positioning from the side of the lens.
At the same time, adjust the tilt of the
anamorphic lens so that the outer edges of 
the test pattern are straight. After adjusting 
the height and tilt of the anamorphic lens, 
securely tighten any loosened screws.
4.
In order to take full advantage of the
performance of the anamorphic lens, it 
is important to keep the gap between the 
anamorphic lens and projector’s lens is as 
small as possible. Adjust the gap between 
the anamorphic lens and projector’s lens 
by loosening the screw located on the lens 
slider. Refer to Figure 29. After adjustment, 
securely tighten the loosened screw.
Figure 29
5.
This is the final adjustment. Using a
Phillips-head screwdriver, adjust the focus 
of the anamorphic lens so that the test 
pattern appears as sharp as possible. Refer 
to Figure 30.
