! Housing: The Atlas system is a compact mechanical housing especially designed to meet any
given requirements concerning set up, resolution, and operational conditions. Due to its flexible structure different projector types and screens can be mounted. The closed structure prevents incident light or dust from entering the unit.
! Projection unit: The projection unit consists of three components: the lamp module, the light
path for optimization of the light distribution and the X Cube and dichroic prism system.
! Deflection mirror: a mirror in the top part of the housing deflects the light onto the rear of the
projection screen.
! Screen: patented seamless screen mounting via high precision cuts, supported by very fine steel
pins results in a nearly not perceptible optical seam.
! Fan: a fan in the housing ensures that the unit is sufficiently cooled.

3.1.1 Lamp Module
r
The lamp module generates the light for the subsequent projection. The lamp (100 Watt UHP (Ultra High Performance) lamp) has an operation time of 8000 hours.
3.1.2 Illumination Unit
The illumination unit consists of the lens system for uniform illumination of the LCDs and the
electronics for lamp power supply and monitoring.
!
Optical Integrator
An optical integrator consisting out of two multi-segment lenses guarantees a uniform illumination of the LCDs and thus of the screen.
3.1.3 Projection Unit
The light from the lamp is split with dichroic mirrors into red, green and blue light to illuminate
three LCD panels, each of which contains the respective color-information for the red, green and
blue parts of the projected image. The LCD panels are attached to a cubical prism called X Cube
which recombines the three light paths, so the image is projected using a single lens.

Poly-Silicon TFT-LCD
The LCD panels are based on Poly-Silicon technology. Poly-Silicon material consists of numerous small crystals leading to small circuitry. The results are a big aperture (ratio of a pixel’s
shutter area to it’s total area), high speed and reliability. The panels have 1,310,720 (SXGA
1280×1024) pixels.
!
Lens System
The projection lens system is positioned behind the X Cube. It projects the image resulting on
the LCD’s via the deflection mirror onto the rear of the screen module.

3.1.4 Screen Module
The image is generated in the screen . It consists of the optical screen and a frame with which the
screen is exactly mounted onto the Atlas Structure.
!
Fresnel Lens
The screen consists of a Fresnel lens and a Front Element Screen. The Fresnel lens deflects the
light coming from the projection lens system such that it falls perpendicularly onto the front
element screen.
!
Front Element
The front element screen guarantuees that the light is distributed horizontally and vertically,
while maintaining a high contrast.
!
Texture of Surface
The surface of the screen has a special non-glare texture. This texture minimizes the direct reflection of the light of the surrounding and contributes also to the high contrast of the screen.

to use asynchronous refresh. When loading Pal, Secam, NTSC-files the synchronous mode is
default, for all other sources below 60 Hz asynchronous mode is default.

the vertical frequency of the incoming source. Synchronous refresh cannot be used.

11.1 Cleaning of Screens
11.1.1 General
Screens consist of single or double screen elements. Each screen element has a delicate optical
screen surface structure dedicated to its functionality. The optical surface can easily be damaged if
the screen is handled incorrectly. Only handle screens while wearing gloves with a soft texture (eg.
cotton gloves).
Avoid touching the rear beaded surface unnecessarily. It is easily damaged.
11.1.2 Cleaning the Screen
The screen is a high-preci sion optical component. It is made of plastic and is not
scratch-proof. Only use a soft, damp cloth when cleani ng.
If the screen is only slightly dusty or is showing particles a vacuum cleaner with a soft bristle or a
feather duster is recommended. Clean compresses air can be used, but it makes the screen statically charged, attracting airborn particles. The brushing direction should always be along the optical structures in the screen (circular in case of fresnel).
If the dirt on the screen is heavier, possibly from fingerprints, soft lint-free cloth or paper towel
can be used. If required the screen may be cleaned with a cleaning agent, such as ordinary window
cleaner with ammonia (not alcohol). Never apply cleaning solution directly onto the screen surface. Instead, add cleaning agent to the cloth or towel, then wipe the surface. It is important that
the screen should be completely dry after treatment.
Never use cleaning agents with solvents as these may destroy the screen. Also, never
rub hard or persistently on the screen in order to remove stains, as this will cause
deformations in the surface which will appear as stains.
Don’t store screens at temperatures exceeding 38ºC (100ºF)

13.1 Floor Space And Maintenance Area
TLAS
Sufficient floor space and maintenance area must be available when installing A
CS4
Floor Space
The floor space must have a sufficient load carrying capacity and be sufficiently flat (according to
DIN 18202). It must not sag by more than 1 millimeter under the load of the A
TLAS
CS4. A ce-
ment, wood or false floor is permissible.
The load of the A
TLAS
CS4 is transmitted to the floor via adjustable feet.
No installations (venting ducts, sockets etc.) must be present in the floor in the area of the feet or
of the lower anchoring devices. An area of at least 15 centimeters must be kept free around each
foot. The loading capacity in the area of the feet must be sufficient. Height differences up to
±5 millimeters can be compensated using the adjustable feet.

13.3 Viewing Distance and Angle
V
i
b
j
TLAS
When planing the installation of A
CS4, anthropotechnical factors such as the human field of
vision must be considered in addition to design requirements. General rules for the viewing angle
and distance will not be specified here since they depend on the field of application. The notes in
this section are therefore only recommendations which can be observed for a particular application.
In the case of permanent, intensive viewing of the display, the display should be in the field of vision of both eyes of the observer. The following figure shows the horizontal and vertical angles of
the field of vision with both eyes. An optimum field of vision can be defined for the horizontal
field.
Human field of vision for both eyes
Figure 13-5
The maximum viewing distance depends on the minimum character size used. Characters and upper-case letters should appear to the eye at an angle of vision greater than 18 angular minutes. This
corresponds to a viewing distance less than 200 times the character height.
