Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working
- If illumination suddenly stops, either when you turn the projector on or after it has been on for a while, the lamp may have ruptured. In this case, never attempt to replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon Customer Support Center.
- With ceiling-mounted projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover, or during replacement. During replacement, stand to the side of the lamp cover, not directly under it.
- If the lamp ruptures, dust and gas (containing mercury vapor) may come out of the exhaust vents. If this happens, immediately open the windows and doors to provide ventilation to the room.
- If you accidentally inhale gas from the lamp or get any pieces in your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.
Relationship between Projecting Distance and Image Size
The projected image size is determined by the distance to the screen (projection distance), the size of the image (P68), and the level of focus (P67). Refer to the following table and decide the distance between the projector and screen.

Lens Shift Function
You can reposition the image in all directions by pressing the SHIFT button on the remote control, which moves the lens up, down, left, or right. For instructions, refer to "Adjusting the Image Position" (P70).
■Amount of Lens Shift
The amount of lens shift is indicated as a percentage relative to the image height and width. The lens shift ranges for the projector are as follows.
| A (Amount of vertical shift) ±60% |
| B (Amount of horizontal shift) ±10% |
The lens can be shifted up or down and to the left or right. Performance using lens shift is ensured within the recommended range described below. However, peripheral dimness or blurriness may occur in the corners outside the last 10% of the horizontal lens shift range and outside the last 15% of the vertical lens shift range. In this case, adjust lens shift to within the recommended range.

Multi Input 4K Projection
■Definition of 4K
4K refers to high-resolution video with a horizontal resolution of about 4,000 pixels, which is four times the resolution of full HD (1920 x 1080).
Although 4K is a convenient description, it encompasses several different resolutions, such as 3840 x 2160, 3840 x 2400, 4096 x 2160, and 4096 x 2400. (4096 x 2160 is also referred to as Ultra HD, and 3840 x 2400 as WQUXGA.) The projector supports resolutions up to 4096 x 2400. For details, check the table of supported signals. (P169)

other
| Dimension | Value | |---|---| | Top Section | 1920 x 1080 | | Middle Section | 3840 x 2160 | | Bottom Section | 4096 x 2400 |■4K Support Using Digital Signals and Multiple Inputs
The projector is equipped with DVI-D and HDMI (1.4) inputs for digital signals.
However, these signals cannot be used as-is for 4K projection.
DVI-D is classified as single-link or dual-link, depending on the dot clock. Projecting resolutions with a dot clock higher than 165 MHz requires a dual-link plug and cable.
The following resolutions are supported.
- 1920 x 1200 (single-link; vertical frequency: 60 Hz)
- 2560 x 1600 (dual-link; vertical frequency: 60 Hz)
- 4096 x 2160 (dual-link; vertical frequency: 24 Hz)
However, most current computers are limited to a maximum DVI-D output resolution of 2560 x 1600.
For HDMI 1.4, the following resolutions are supported.
• 1920 x 1080 (vertical frequency: 60 Hz)
- 3840 x 2160 (vertical frequency: 24 Hz / 25 Hz / 30 Hz)
• 4096 x 2160 (vertical frequency: 24 Hz)

Single-link plug

Dual-link plug
To avoid the limitation with DVI-D that a single signal line cannot carry video with a resolution of 4096 x 2400 (vertical frequency: 60 Hz) even with a dual-link cable, the projector enables you to project multiple lines of input at once. This feature is called Multi Input mode.
| Number of dual-link cables 1 4 | ||
| Compatible video signals | 4096 x 2160(vertical frequency: 24 Hz) | 4096 x 2400(vertical frequency: 60 Hz) |
■Connections for Multi Input Mode
Multi Input mode requires that the computer's video output (whether dual-link compatible DVI-D or HDMI) support split-screen display or display in four quadrants. To connect the projector to computers, use up to four DVI cables and two HDMI cables.
Refer to the following figure.

Projecting an Image in the DICOM SIM Mode
In the DICOM simulation mode (hereinafter referred to as “DICOM SIM”), this projector can project a monochrome medical image such as an X ray radiography, CT image, MRI image, etc. in the tone similar to the DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) standard. Typically, to project the image according to the DICOM standard, it requires the grayscale tone correction using a luminance meter according to the environment. In this projector, there are 21 types of tone settings for various ambient lights. You can correct the tone in a simplified manner by selecting the DICOM test pattern (P168).
It is suited to project an image in a medical lecture, academic conference, in-hospital conference, etc.
This projector is not the display monitor for a medical image. It cannot be used for the radiological image reading or medical examination.

- It is recommended to check the tone every time when using this projector since it does not have the tone correction and calibration functions against the secular change.
- It may take approximately 30 minutes until the projection brightness of this projector becomes stabled.
■Switching the mode to the DICOM SIM Mode

Network Connection Overview
Connecting the projector to a network enables you to control the projector from a computer and receive notification of projector errors via email.
Depending on the method of network connection, preparation on the computer side may be necessary. The following is an explanation of preparation on the computer side.
Connection Methods
To connect the projector to a computer network, use a LAN cable.

graph TD
A["Laptop"] --> B["Hub or router, etc."]
C["Laptop"] --> B
D["Laptop"] --> E["LAN cable (shielded twisted pair; not included)"]
F["LAN port"] --> G["LAN cable with shielded twisted pair"]
- When the [Network function] setting of the projector is set to [Off] (Network Connections is disabled), switch it to [On] to enable it. (P125)
- Referring to “Checking Projector Information” (P148), check that the projector IP address does not overlap with other computers that are on the same LAN. To set a projector IP address, follow the instructions in “Completing Computer Settings for a Network Connection” (P130) and use the web screen, or use projector TCP/IP settings. (P126)
- When you connect the computer to the network for the first time, it is also necessary to perform settings on the computer. In this case, consult the network administrator regarding the necessary settings.

In a network environment where a DHCP server is operating, choose [On] on the projector [DHCP] screen to enable the DHCP function and connect it. (P126)
Completing Projector Settings
Settings described in this section apply to the network connections, setting a network password, and other aspects of networked projection.

What is PJLink?
In September 2003, the PJLink Working Group was established under the Data Projector Committee. During the first year, this PJLink Working Group standardized PJLink as a new interface specification for projectors.
PJLink is a unified standard for operation and control of projectors.
It allows centralized control of projectors and operation from a controller for all projectors regardless of manufacturer.
The objective is for JBMIA to improve convenience for users and expand the use of projectors through early systemization for network monitoring and control of projectors, which will become the mainstream in the future.
Class 1: Standardization of control and monitoring specifications for basic projector functions
Basic projector control: Power control, input selection, etc.
Acquisition of projector information and status: Power status, input selection status, error status, lamp use time, etc.
JBMIA: Japan Business Machine and Information System Industries Association.
The JBMIA is an organization which was launched in 1960 and changed its name on April 1, 2002.

Advanced Projection
Projecting from Multiple Projectors at Once (Edge Blending)
Overlapping edges of images from multiple projectors used together can be blended to make the overall image more seamless.
■Basic Instructions
Follow these steps when using two projectors side by side.
1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust].
![CANON REALiS 4K500ST Pro AV - 1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust]. - 1](/content/2026/06/1199025/images/d5e79b8bef7d9f32e41f71bfee6485b2ed15864bcddaa61ddcb8319d8052803a.jpg)
- If you have already completed edge blending settings, selecting [Adjust] will apply them.
- To restore the default settings before adjustment, select [Reset].
2Set [Marker] to [On].
Marker lines are projected on the images. The red marker indicates the start position for adjustment, and the green marker, the end position.
| Edge blending | ||
| Side | Width | Start position |
| Left | 0 | 0 |
| Right | 0 | 0 |
| Top | 0 | 0 |
| Bottom | 0 | 0 |
| Color blending adjustment | Off | |
| Black level adjustment | Off | |
| Marker | Off | |
| Reset | ||
| Return | ||
![CANON REALiS 4K500ST Pro AV - 2Set [Marker] to [On]. - 1](/content/2026/06/1199025/images/72581152b206e6a2624b0ccbb2830715f458bab0ed4cc0d795bf56ca44cd5845.jpg)
By default, the green and red markers are displayed in the same position, so only the red marker is visible.
3Adjust [Start position] for the side where images overlap. Move the start marker to the outer edge of the overlapping area, or press a number button on the remote control to specify the start position.
4Adjust [Width]. Move the end marker to the inner edge of the overlapping area, or press a number button on the remote control to specify the width of the area to correct.
The area between the starting and ending markers is called the blending area. Values indicated for this blending area are adjusted to match manually entered blending area values. Shading is applied to this area, and the brightness is adjusted to match portions that overlap with other areas. After you complete settings for one image, do the same thing for the other one to specify the blending area. Adjust the settings to make the blending area for each image the same.
5Set [Marker] to [Off].
■Color Adjustment
In overlapping projection, portions of images in the overlapping area that pick up other colors or are miscolored may be more noticeable. You can make this overlapping area appear less distracting by performing Color blending adjustment.
1 In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Color blending adjustment] > [Adjust].
2As you watch the image, adjust the value to eliminate unwanted colors in the overlapping area.

text_image
Color blending adjustment White Red Green Blue ReturnFirst adjust red, green, and blue together by changing the [White] value, and then adjust [Red], [Green], and [Blue] values individually.
3Repeat this adjustment on all projectors.
■Black Level Adjustment
In overlapping projection, dark colors are projected with less intensity than other colors in the overlapping area. You can make this overlapping area less distracting by adjusting the black level of non-overlapping image areas.
Left image Right image

text_image
Area where dark colors look lighter Position of end marker (hidden) D-area Blending areaHere, the non-overlapping image area (from the end marker toward the center of the image) is called area "D."
Normally, three areas are identified in the context of end markers: A, B, and C. In the following instructions, only area D is adjusted, and the widths of A, B, and C are left at the default value of 0.

To prepare for adjustment, set [No signal screen] to [Black], start projection with no input signal, and turn off the room lights, so that you can check dark image areas. (P109)
1 In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Black level adjustment] > [Adjust].
2Select [Adjustment type] > [Black level].
3After selecting [D-area base], as you watch the image, adjust the values so that the brightness and colors of the blending area and area D match.

text_image
Black level adjustment Adjustment type Black level B-area base 0 B-area red +0 B-area green +0 B-area blue +0 D-area base 0 D-area red +0 D-area green +0 D-area blue +0 ReturnAdjust [D-area base] to lighten the black level, and adjust [Red], [Green], and [Blue] to obtain an optimal black level color tone, as needed.
4 Repeat this adjustment on all projectors.
■ Smoother Overlapping Areas
The black level along the right edge of area D (along the blending area) may be more noticeable than that of surrounding areas.
By adjusting the black level of area B, you can make the transition smoother.
To compensate, adjust each area as follows.
Left image Position of end marker (hidden)

text_image
CBAArea A: Black level cannot be adjusted.
Area B: Adjust to a black level different from that of area D.
Area C: Adjust to provide a smooth transition relative to the black levels of areas B and D.
When the projected image has multiple blending areas (on the top, bottom, and each side), the width of areas A, B, and C must be adjusted to suit these blending areas.
In this example, instructions are given for adjusting area B.
1 In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [Edge blending] > [Adjust] > [Black level adjustment] > [Adjust].
2Select [Adjustment type] > [Area] > [Side] > [Right].
3Select [B-width], and then specify the width of area B.
Adjust the width of area B so that it roughly matches the area where the black level of area B stands out. This will make the width of area D narrower.

- Results of adjusting the black level of area B are applied to all sides.
- Blending can be fine-tuned by adjusting [Adjustment type] > [Black level] > [Red], [Green], and [Blue].
5As you watch the image, adjust the width of areas A, B, and C.
6Readjust the black level of area B, as needed.
To reduce distracting colors and colors that are out of alignment in areas where the images overlap, perform [Color blending adjustment] targeting the main tone in the envisaged projected image.

If you perform adjustments using [Color blending adjustment] or other menus, that may not eliminate the distracting colors and differences in brightness in areas where the images overlap.
Advanced Registration to Adjust Projected Images
Any values you set in 5-point adjustment are retained if you subsequently perform manual adjustment. For more precise correction after 5-point adjustment, perform manual adjustment.
This feature enables precise correction of red, green, or blue misalignment in different areas of the screen by color and area.
Two methods of registration are available: 5-point adjustment (using points in the corners and center of the screen) and more precise manual adjustment based on 54 points (in a 6 x 9 grid).

- Adjust zoom and lens shift as needed before using [Advanced registration].
- Performing keystone adjustment will prevent accurate adjustment with [Advanced registration]. If keystone adjustment is required, complete adjustment with [Advanced registration] first.
■Registration Using 5-Point Adjustment
5-point adjustment enables basic correction of color misalignment across the screen, by moving adjustment points in each corner and the center.
1In the [Install settings] menu, select [Professional settings] > [RGB alignment] > [Advanced registration] > [Adjust] > [5-point adjustment] > [Adjust].
The projector enters 5-point adjustment mode, and a point selection window is displayed.

Troubleshooting
Cleaning the Projector
Clean the projector frequently to prevent dust from settling on the surface.
A dirty lens may ruin the quality of the projected image.

Before cleaning the projector, always turn it off, unplug it after the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Otherwise, you may get burned because the main unit is very hot immediately after the projector is turned off.
Wipe the projector's main unit softly with a soft cloth.
If the projector is heavily soiled, soak the cloth in water with a small amount of detergent in it, squeeze the cloth thoroughly, and then wipe the projector with it. After cleaning, wipe the projector with a dry cloth.

natural_image

- Never use volatile cleaning liquid or benzine, as these may damage the finish of the projector.
- When using a chemical dust cloth, make sure to read the instructions thoroughly.
- When cleaning the projector's lens, use a commonly available air blower or lens cleaning paper. The lens surface is easily damaged, so do not use a hard cloth or tissues.
Request Internal Cleaning Regularly
Dust that accumulates over long periods without cleaning may eventually cause fire or electric shock. Once a year, request internal cleaning from the Canon Customer Support Center. (Note that a fee is charged.) Cleaning before damp, rainy seasons is especially effective.
Cleaning the Air Filter
The air filter protects the lens and mirror inside the projector from dust and dirt. Should the air filter become clogged with dust, the projector may be damaged since it will block the air flow into the projector and raise the internal temperature of the projector. The following screen is displayed when turning on the projector if the air filter needs to be cleaned. Clean the air filter if it is displayed.

Replacement Lamp
This projector uses the following lamps.
Lamp part no.: RS-LP10
Contact the Canon Customer Support Center when purchasing a replacement lamp.

Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working If the illumination suddenly stops when the projector is in use or after you turn it on, the lamp may be broken. In this case, never attempt to replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon Customer Support Center. Additionally, with ceiling-mounted projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover or while you are attempting to replace it. During replacement, stand to the side of the lamp cover, not directly under it. If the lamp breaks and any glass shards or other pieces get in your eyes or mouth, consult a doctor immediately.

Before replacing the lamp, always turn off the projector, unplug it after the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Do not touch the lamp immediately after turning the projector off. It is very hot initially and poses a risk of burns.

- Be sure to use the specified lamp.
- Contact the Canon Customer Support Center for further information. This can also be purchased from the Canon website.
- Do not touch the inner glass surface when you replace the lamp. Doing so may cause deterioration to the projector's performance.
- Handle lamps with care. Impact or abrasion may cause lamps to rupture while they are in use. If a lamp ruptures, contact the Canon Customer Support Center and follow the instructions in “Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working” (P15).
- When replacing the lamp, do not remove any screws other than those specified.
Lamp Replacement Procedure

Colors may appear distorted when images are viewed from the side on some screens, but this does not indicate a problem with the projector. For best results, use a matte screen with a wide viewing angle.

When you apply the settings in the DVI multi input mode column, formats in corresponding rows are identified in the EDID. No information is provided in the EDID for fields that are blank, so the computer output format must be configured manually.

Colors may appear distorted when images are viewed from the side on some screens, but this does not indicate a problem with the projector. For best results, use a matte screen with a wide viewing angle.

| A cable is not connected correctly. | Check whether the projector is connected to the computer or AV equipment correctly. (P53 - P54) |
| 20 seconds have not elapsed since the projector was turned on. | When the projector is turned on, the opening window is displayed for approximately 20 seconds. To project an image immediately, press the OK button on the remote control or side control. (P26, P30) |
| No image is sent from the AV equipment. | Check whether an image is played on the connected video camcorder, DVD, etc. |
| Connection with the input terminal has not been performed correctly. | Check whether the AV equipment is connected to the projector input terminal correctly. (P29) |
| No input signal type has been selected for the connected AV equipment. | Check that the same input signal has been correctly selected for the connected AV equipment from the [INPUT] menu. (P63) |
| The input signal type is incorrect. | Check whether the selected input signal type is correct. (P63, P169) |
| The BLANK function has been selected. | Press the BLANK button on the remote control. (P80) |
| No image is projected due to a problem with the computer. | Turn first the projector and then the computer off and then back on again. |
| The external monitor output is not set on the notebook computer correctly. | Turn on the external monitor output on the notebook computer. To turn on the external monitor output, press the [LCD] or [VGA] function key or a key with an icon for the external monitor, while holding down the [Fn] key on the keyboard of the notebook computer. With Windows 8.1 / Windows 8 / Windows 7, you can turn on image output by holding down the Windows logo key and pressing the [P] key. (P62) The combination of keys used to perform this operation varies depending on the model of notebook computer. For more detailed information, refer to the manual that came with your computer. |
| The displayed image is not the same as that displayed on the computer. | Check whether the dual screen (multi-display) mode is selected on the computer. If dual screen mode is selected, change the computer display output to mirroring mode.The output setting method varies among computer manufacturers. For more detailed information, refer to the manual that came with your computer. |
■There is no Sound
| Cause Countermeasure | |
| The audio cable is not connected correctly. | Check the audio cable connection. (P53, P54) |
| The MUTE function is enabled. | Press the MUTE button on the remote control. (P31) |
| The volume level is adjusted to the minimum. | Press the VOL button on the remote control or the VOL+ button on the side control to adjust the volume level. (P26, P31) |
| An audio cable with a built-in resistor is used. | Use an audio cable without a built-in resistor. |
| Audio in terminal select is [Off]. | Change the Audio In terminal to the appropriate setting. (P113) |
■The Projected Image Is Blurred
| Cause Countermeasure | |
| The image is out of focus. | Adjust the focus. (P67) |
| The distance to the screen is too short. | Check whether the distance to the screen is appropriate. (P50) |
| The projector is not placed straight in front of the screen. | Check whether the projector is placed obliquely to the screen. A slight error in the projection angle can be corrected through the keystone adjustment function. (P73) |
| The projector has been moved to a place where the temperature varies a lot. | When the projector is moved from a location where the temperature is low to a location where the temperature is high, condensation may form on the lens. The condensation will evaporate after a period of time and the projector will be able to project a normal image. |
| The lens is stained. Clean | the lens. (P160) |
