FAQ
Projector
The projector can display image diagonals from 80 inches (2.03 m) to 150 inches (3.81 m).
The system currently supports 10 languages:
English, Chinese, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Korean, Turkish, and Japanese.
- When you play Dolby Vision (DV) content, a DV symbol will be displayed at the beginning, reminding you that the input signal is DV. You can press the Menu button (3 lines) on the AWOL Vision remote to check the current HDR video format (HDR10, HDR10+ or DV).
The AWOL Vision projector supports the eARC function. You can use the HDMl 2 (eARC) to connect your AV receiver, and the various components (Blu-ray, game console, TiVo) connected to the other 2 HDMI ports of the AWOL Vision can be transmitted to your AV receiver to create surround sound. You can connect your various components to your receiver to enjoy surround sound, and the AWOL Vision device acts only as a display device.
- The extended gaming mode of the AWOLVision projector achieves approximately 15 ms at 4K@60Hz and 8 ms at 1080P@120Hz for gamers. You can activate it by following the menu path: [Einstellungen]→ [Bild]-,[Erweiterte Einstellungen]-, [Niedriger Verzögerungsmodus]. You can also activate it by switching the picture mode to game mode.
- AWOLVision projectors support up to 4K 60Hz non-3D input sources and 1080p 120Hz DLP Active 3D input sources due to the limitations of DLP technology. AWOL Vision supports all active 3D modes, including Side-by-Side, Top and Bottom, Frame Pack, and Frame Continuous.
- We recommend the Frame Pack mode, which offers the best 3D performance, and all 30 Blu-rays are in this format.
- Most movies are recorded at 24 frames per second.
- The 24 FPS function (under [MEMC] → [Film]) eliminates judder effects and displays movies authentically.
- Note: At 4K@60Hz output, other MEMC settings (High, Medium, Low, Off) can be selected.
HDCP 2.2 is supported.
The projector uses HDMI 2.0b. HDMI 2.1 (4K 120Hz) offers no advantage for the 0.47-inch DLP chipset, as it outputs a maximum of 4K 60Hz.
Yes. Here's how to connect external devices:
- Go to Settings > Bluetooth > Management.
- Make sure the Bluetooth device is in Pairing Mode.
- Select "Add Device".
Canvas
The 100-inch AWOL Vision motorized floor projector screen measures 92.9 inches × 60 inches × 6.3 inches.
The 120-inch AWOL Vision motorized floor projector screen measures 111.4 inches × 76.8 inches × 6.3 inches.
We recommend the Cinematic screen for rooms with moderate to no ambient light. The Daylight screen is suitable for rooms with strong ambient light. For more details, please refer to the product pages.
- The Cinematic screen has a gain value of 0.6 dB and is made of BlackGrid, an eco-friendly TPU material.
- The Daylight screen has a gain value of 1.1 dB and is made of Fresnel PET.
No, you can also project the image onto a flat wall. However, we strongly recommend purchasing an Ambient Light Rejection (ALR) screen that is specifically designed for UST projectors. A screen optimizes the experience with your AWOL Vision projector. Currently, we offer 100-inch and 120-inch ALR Cinematic screens as well as 100-inch ALR Daylight screens.
Yes, the installation is possible with the help of the instructions or an installation video. Two people need about 1–2 hours for the setup and assembly.
Expect 2 people to take 1-2 hours.
The recommended minimum viewing distance is 13 feet (approximately 4 meters), and the recommended distance between the projector and the wall is 8 inches (approximately 20 cm).
We recommend loosening the springs, reattaching them, and tightening them more:
- To remove the springs: Hook the spring part (see highlighted area in the instructions) in and gently pull it towards the edge of the canvas.
- Align the frame and canvas evenly. Two people should simultaneously attach the springs at the second groove joint at opposite ends to achieve a tighter tension.
- Repeat this at all corners.
- First, attach springs in the middle of the canvas, then every second spring, and finally the remaining ones.
3D Technology
To activate the 3D function and view 3D content, follow these steps:
- Check the compatibility of the content:
Make sure that the desired content is in 3D format. - Activate the 3D function:
- Select the correct format:
Choose the appropriate format for your 3D content. For example, Blu-ray discs often use the frame packing format. - Activate the DLP-Link 3D glasses:
Turn on your DLP-Link 3D glasses. Ensure that they are fully charged and functional.
Use the 3D demo videos in our Google Drive to test the 3D feature:

The DLP-Link 3D glasses synchronize through a brief white flash from the projector between images at a 120Hz rate. Both lenses of the glasses close during this synchronization signal, making it invisible to the viewer.
- The glasses have a light sensor – ensure that it receives the 120Hz signal.
- Turn on the glasses before each 3D movie (using the button on the glasses or in the 3D menu).
- In the menu, you can adjust the dominant eye (left/right) depending on the user.
- Left-Right Exchange:
Adjusts the 3D sequence to your dominant eye. - 3D SS to 2D:
Converts "Side-by-Side" 3D content to 2D. - 3D TB to 2D:
Converts "Top-and-Bottom" 3D content to 2D.
- Make sure the glasses are charged (charging via the included Micro-USB cable).
- Press the button on the glasses to switch the dominant eye (left/right).
Proceed step by step as follows:
- Play the 3D content.
- Activate 3D via Settings > Picture > 3D.
- Select the correct format of the content (e.g., Frame Packing for Blu-ray 3D discs).
- Turn on the DLP-Link 3D glasses (make sure they are charged).
All Blu-ray 3D discs use the frame packing format. Select this format to receive a complete image (no half images).

When an ultra-short throw projector is used on a non-flat wall, distortions can occur. The projector amplifies any irregularities or surface defects on the wall.
- Why is it not possible? The IR codes of the projector are not compatible with the Amazon Fire TV Stick.
- Alternative: Use the AWOL Vision remote control or enable the CEC function ([Einstellungen] > [Allgemein] > [CEC]) to link both devices.
- Slowly blinking: Projector is shutting down.
- Steadily glowing: Projector is turned on.
Steps for correction:
- Fire TV Stick HDR - Change settings:
Go to [Einstellungen] > [Anzeige] > [HDR] > [Anpassend] to optimize SDR content. - Projector settings:
Go to [Einstellungen] > [Bild] > [Erweiterte Einstellungen] > [Weites Farbspiel] and disable it to authentically reproduce SDR content.
- Function: Expands the color range of SDR content (except in Movie mode) to BT.2020 (high-resolution color spectrum).
- Mode restriction: Disabled in Movie mode to maintain natural colors.
