I could not get it to auto. Focus on an 8 / 8 screen. I didn't know if it was my garmin R50 or the projector but I manually\n Got it to work on a 8 / 8.

BenQ LU935ST 5500-Lumen WUXGA Laser Golf Simulator Projector
The BenQ LU935ST is a WUXGA laser short throw projector rated at 5,500 ANSI lumens, the highest brightness of any BenQ projector we carry. It pairs a 0.81-0.89:1 zoom lens with wide optical lens shift, so it can sit behind and above the hitter and still square up on the screen.
It shares its lens and shift range with the 4K LK936ST and puts out 400 more lumens. Pick it when brightness and mounting flexibility matter more than 4K UHD.

Why Golfers Choose the LU935ST
5,500 ANSI Lumens
Brighter than the LK936ST (5,100) and LU960ST2 (5,200). The extra light keeps a large impact screen vivid in rooms with some ambient light.
WUXGA 16:10
1920 x 1200 native resolution adds 120 lines over 1080p and a taller 16:10 frame. HDMI 2.0 accepts 4K 60Hz sources.
V +/-60%, H +/-23% Shift
Optical lens shift moves the image without moving the projector. Mount off-center or higher than ideal and keep the picture square.
Golf Mode
BenQ's Golf picture mode is tuned for vivid greens and blues on the course.
HDBaseT Input
With an HDBaseT transmitter (sold separately), video runs over one Cat5 or Cat6 cable from a PC in another room or an equipment closet.
IP5X Sealed Engine
BenQ seals the laser engine against dust, so there is no filter to clean. The laser is rated for 20,000 hours.
Room Planning
Throw Distance and Room Placement
The LU935ST's 0.81-0.89:1 throw ratio and 1.1x zoom let one mount point cover a range of image sizes. BenQ says it fills a 12-foot-wide screen from less than 10 feet away. Distances below are at native 16:10.

Who It's For
Is the LU935ST Right for Your Build?
Large Screens and Open Rooms
The most light in our BenQ lineup suits wide impact screens and sim rooms that share space with windows or overhead lights.
Off-Center Ceilings
Joists, ducts or a sloped ceiling can block the ideal mount spot. Lens shift moves the image instead of the projector.
Deeper Rooms
BenQ says it fills a 12-foot-wide screen from less than 10 feet away, and Digital Shrink lets you mount it farther back and scale the image down in 0.5% steps.
PC in Another Room
With an HDBaseT transmitter (sold separately), the signal runs over one Cat5 or Cat6 cable, so the simulator PC can live in a closet or rack instead of the hitting bay.
20 ft
Maximum Screen Width
BenQ rates the LU935ST to fill screens up to 20 feet wide. At that size the lens sits about 16 feet back at the widest zoom setting.
Installation Flexibility
Lens Shift, Corner Fit and 360-Degree Mounting
A projector without lens shift fixes an off-center mount with digital keystone, which rescales the image. The LU935ST moves the lens itself with optical lens shift, and 1.1x zoom sets image size from a fixed mount point.
For the last bit of alignment it adds 2D keystone up to 30 degrees, Corner Fit for each corner, and Digital Shrink, which scales the image in 0.5% steps when the projector sits farther back than planned.
BenQ rates the LU935ST for 360-degree installation, including sideways for portrait images. Connections include two HDMI 2.0a inputs with HDCP 2.2, HDBaseT, VGA in and out, LAN, RS-232, a wired remote port and a 12V trigger output.

Setup Guide
Get the Most Out of Your LU935ST
Six tips for a sharp, square image from day one.
Ceiling Mount It
BenQ lists the BenQ ceiling mount ($99) as the optional mount for the LU935ST. Overhead mounting keeps it clear of club and ball.
Shift Before Keystone
Square the image with optical lens shift first. Keystone and Corner Fit are digital, so save them for small final corrections.
Size It With Zoom
Use the 1.1x zoom to fill the screen from your mount point. Digital Shrink handles the last fraction if the image still runs large.
Pick Golf Mode
Start from the Golf picture mode for simulator software. BenQ tunes it for vivid greens and blues.
Use HDBaseT for Long Runs
If the PC sits far from the projector, connect it to an HDBaseT transmitter and run one Cat5 or Cat6 cable to the HDBaseT port instead of a long HDMI cable.
Pair With the Right Screen
An impact screen in a good enclosure keeps stray light off the image and gets the most from 5,500 lumens.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How bright is the BenQ LU935ST?
The BenQ LU935ST is rated at 5,500 ANSI lumens from a laser light source, the highest rating of any BenQ projector Top Shelf Golf carries. BenQ rates it to fill screens up to 20 feet wide.
What is the throw distance for the BenQ LU935ST?
The LU935ST has a 0.81-0.89:1 throw ratio with 1.1x zoom. At native 16:10, a 100-inch image needs about 5.7 to 6.3 feet, 120 inches about 6.9 to 7.5 feet, 150 inches about 8.6 to 9.4 feet and 200 inches about 11.4 to 12.6 feet. A 12-foot-wide image needs about 9.7 to 10.7 feet.
Does the LU935ST have lens shift?
Yes. The LU935ST has optical lens shift of +/-60% vertical and +/-23% horizontal, plus 2D keystone up to 30 degrees and Corner Fit. Lens shift moves the image without the softening that digital keystone adds.
Is WUXGA better than 1080p for a golf simulator?
WUXGA (1920 x 1200) has 120 more lines than 1080p (1920 x 1080) and a taller 16:10 shape, which fills more of a 16:10 or 4:3 impact screen. It is not 4K. For 4K UHD with the same lens, see the BenQ LK936ST.
Can the LU935ST play 4K content?
Yes. The LU935ST accepts signals up to 4K UHD at 60Hz over its HDMI 2.0 inputs and displays them at its native WUXGA resolution.
Can I ceiling-mount the LU935ST?
Yes. BenQ lists the BenQ ceiling mount ($99) as the optional mount for the LU935ST, and rates the projector for 360-degree installation, including portrait orientation.
Does the LU935ST need filter cleaning or lamp replacement?
No. The laser light source is rated for 20,000 hours, and BenQ's IP5X sealed engine keeps dust out of the light path, so there is no filter to clean.
How do I connect a simulator PC to the LU935ST?
Over HDMI, or over HDBaseT with a transmitter. The LU935ST has two HDMI 2.0a inputs with HDCP 2.2. Its HDBaseT port connects to an HDBaseT transmitter (sold separately) over one Cat5 or Cat6 cable, so the PC can sit in another room.
How does Top Shelf Golf ship the LU935ST?
Most orders ship free within the contiguous 48 states, and most items leave the warehouse within 1-2 business days when in stock. The projector weighs 15.4 lbs and comes with its remote and power cord.
Does Top Shelf Golf offer financing for the BenQ LU935ST?
Yes. Top Shelf Golf offers monthly payments through Affirm or Shop Pay at checkout. Pre-qualifying has no impact on your credit score.
Does BenQ offer a warranty on the LU935ST?
Yes. BenQ covers the LU935ST with a 3-year limited warranty on parts and labor from the date of purchase. Top Shelf Golf is an authorized BenQ dealer, so the warranty applies to every unit we sell. See our return policy for additional details.
