1. Safety
To prevent fire hazard
•Barco projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most s tringent safety regulations. This projector radiates
heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing
flammable or combustible m aterials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material,
resultinginafire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external surfaces of the
projector whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone in the exhaust area must be not
less than 100 cm (40”). The exclusion zone on the intake area must not be less than 50 cm (20”).
•Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
•For the F90 projector, the exclusion zone on the lens side within the light beam must be at least 1,5m.
•For the F70 projector the exclusion zone on the lens side within the light bea m must be at least 1,0m.

These values are minimum values and are based on the guidance provided in IEC 62471-5:2015 section 6.6.5.
The end user m ust understand the risk and apply protective measures based upon the hazard distance as indicated on the label and

eye access to the radiation within the hazard distance.
For example, projectors that have a HD greater than 1 m and emit light into an un controlled area where pe rsons may be present
should be positioned in accordance with “the fixed projector installation” parameters, resulting in a HD that does not extend into
the audience area unless the beam is at least 2.0 meter above the floor level. In non-c inema environmen

•HDdiffuse : the relevant distance to be considered while observing the defuse surface of the rear projec tion sc reen.
As desc ribed in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance ( HD)", page 6 , it is mandatory to create a restricted zone within
the beam areas closer than any NOHD. In the enclosed projection area the combination of two restricted zones are relevant: The

4.4Positioning the projector
CAUTION: The position and physical securing of the projector must be sufficient to prevent it from accidental
or involuntary movement. Proper securing of the projector is the responsibility of the installer and user. The
Projector are heavy, and can cause severe damage and injuries if falling.
General guidelines
Proper positioning of the projector lessens the overall picture setup time, and ens ures a better image with fewer artifacts.
Focus and sharpness of the image can be adversely affected if the lens axis is not fully perpendicular to the
projection surface.
Using extended cable lengths may result in reduced image quality as well as loss of control information such
as EDID (Extended Display Inform ation Data).
The following guidelines can help you determine the best physical location for the projector.
•Only install the projector on a s turdy flat s urface, or in an approved rigging frame.
•Do not install the projector in a thoroughfare or another area where it is at risk of being pushed or jostled.
•Allow sufficient free sp ace around the pr ojector for ventilation and exhaust, as described in section 4.2
•Use the throw ratio of the ins talled lens as a guideline for the proje
•Wherever possible, the projector lens surface should be positioned so that it is perfectly perpendicular to the cen ter of the
screen.
Use the projector offset (lens shift), rather than physical angling, to correct any off-center positioning.
•Minimize the source cable length as much as possible.
In general HDBaseT and 3G-SDI are long-haul interfaces and suitable for bespoke installations using relatively long cables.
DP, HDMI and DVI are short-haul interfaces using pre-assembled cables with limited cable lengths.
•Limit the use of power cable extensions wherever possible. Where physical limitations necessitate their use, make sure that
the extension cord has adequate surge protection and meets all electrical requirements of the connection.
•Keep the projector away from equipment that emits electromagnetic ener
ctor’s physical distance from the screen.
gy for example, motors, transformers and elevators.
4.5Mounting the projector, general considerations
Mounting safety
When mounting a projector in a rig, always use an interface plate (between the projector and the mount) that has provision for a
safety wire or another safety mechanism, to ensure that the projector does not fall down should the interface plate come loose from
the m ount.
Always screw the interface plate securely to the projector body while the projector is on the ground (i.e. cannot fall down). Then
attach proper safety wire between the interface plate a
Using 3rd party mounting equipment
The projector has features for mounting into various system environments using 3rd party m ounts.

Length 18mm max18mm max
Where possible, the projector lens must be positioned exactly p erpen dicular to the center of the sc reen. Use
the projector offset (lens shift), rather than physical angling, to correct an y off-center positioning.
CAUTION: The position and physical securing of the projector must be sufficient to prevent it from accidental
or involuntary movement. Proper securing of the projector is the responsibility of the installer an d user.
CAUTION: Always use a Rigging Frame when the projector shall be mounted in other ways than on the feet,
on a flat surface.
The threaded hole in the lower back end of the projector is NOT suitable for lifting or other heavy op erations.
Only for adjustment purposes.
Installation and use of the Rigging Frame are described in document R5906768 Multifunctional Frame — In stallation Manual.
Mounting on a flat surface
1. P osition the projector at the desired location.
2. P ower up the projector.
3. G o to Main Menu / Test Patterns and select an internal hatch pattern to display on the screen.
4. A djust the projector legs until the projected hatch pattern is a level and perfect rectangle.

4.7Throw distance
Calculate the installation throw distance
Throw is the distance (D) measured from your projector lens to the screen. To calculate the throw distance for an installation, you
will need two pieces of data: the selected lens throw ratio (L) and the horizontal width (W) of the screen. For ex ample, if the screen
width (W) is 2.4 m eters and the projector lens has a throw ratio ( L) of 0.99:1, then the throw distance (D) will be 2.38 meters.
Calculation: 2.4 x 0.99 = 2.38
The following graphs illustrate the image size (W) and projection distance (D) for each of the projector l
Tolerances are typically +/- 5% due to optical (lens) variation.
The lens holder has to be adjusted s o that the “sharp focus plane” of the projected image falls together with the plane of the screen
(Fp1→Fp2). This is achieved by cha
plane comes to the DMD plane the further the sharp focus plane will be. It can occur that you won’t be able to get a complete f ocused
image on the screen due to a tilt (or swing) of the lens plane with respect to the DMD plane. This is also know n as Scheimpflug’s
law. To solve this the lens plan
remove the tilt (or swing) between lens plane and DMD plane (Lp3→Lp4).

Scheimpflug principle
The "plane of sharp focus" can be changed so that any plane can be brought into sharp focus. W hen the DMD plane
and lens plane are parallel, the plane of sharp focus will also be parallel to these two planes. If, however, the lens
plane is tilted with r espect to the DMD plane, the plane of sharp focus will also be tilted according to geometrical and
optical properties. The DMD plane, the principal lens plane and the sharp focus plane will intersect in a line be low the
projector for downward lens tilt.
Scheimpflug adjustment points
Scheimpflug adjustment points are located on the lens mount. The F70 has three (3) set screws and three (3) adjustment screws.
When to apply Scheimpflug?
Scheimpflug correction procedures may only be carried out by suitably trained and experienced tech nicians.
A Scheimpflug correction should only be applied when the overall focus of the projected image is not equally sharp (for example, if the
projector is NOT in parallel with the screen or as a result of a previously misaligned Sc heimpfl ug). Be aware that the consequence of
applying Scheimpflug correction upon a screen not in parallel with the projector is that the projected image differs from the rectangle
shaped image. In other words “distortion” of the projected image occurs. Masking will be required to solve the distortion.
The disadvantage of Masking is loss of content. T herefore it is st rongly recommended to place the projector in parallel with the
projection screen and use the SHIFT functionality of the Lens Holder to match the projected im age with the projection screen. If the
SHIFT range is not sufficient then the projector can be tilted and Scheimpflug can be applied.
4.9Scheimpflug adjustment procedure
CAUTION: A Scheimpflug adjustment should only be carried out by properly qualified and experienced pro-
jection specialists. A poor Scheimpfl ug adjustment may result in an extremely degraded image and will require
factory—servicing to the projector.
Necessary tools

•Dual Disp layport Columns
•Dual Displayport Sequential
•Dual D VI Columns
•Dual D VI Sequential
For Images to be displayed in this mode, the resolution must be the same on both channels
Signal source setup.
When using dual inputs, it is important that the signal sources are set up correctly, with the correct resolution. Please refer to the
manual for the source itself (PC, Graphic driver card..) in order to obtain a correct setup. If the setup is wrong, no picture will be
visible in dual mode.
The resolution for each dual column channel can be up to 1920x2400 pixels.
The resolution for each du al sequential channel can be up to 3840x2400 pixels. (4K)

About
The s harpness adjustment amplifies the high frequency components in the picture, meaning that by increase the sharpness, the
picture will be perceived as sharper, and if decreased, the picture will be perceived as more blurry.
Increasing the sharpness will have the best effect in high contrast images, eg a table with text and borders.
In a natural picture, high sharpness can be perc eived as noise, as all details in the picture will be amplified.
Available range —2 to 8.

7.5Gamma Adjustment
About Gamma correction.
Gamma compensation, or gamma correction, is a way of adjus ting the signal input to light output characteristics of a display or
projector in order to suit the eye’s sensitivity to different light levels and to compensate for non-linearities in displays. Without gamma
compensation, images may look too dark or too bright, lack detail or depth. By adjusting the amount of gamma compensation
changes, you change only the perceived brightness levels.
Different types of displays have dif

Purpose
When blending images from multiple projectors, the perceived color c oordinates of each projector can be altered to a desired com mon level, so that the projected colors are identical over all p rojectors used.
Alternatively, if you are unfamiliar with how adjusting the Colors to a spec ific setting, there are also a certain number of presets
available, which forces the color output to specific c olor standards.
The selection of the presets w ill vary, depending on the projector type, and the color wheel installed.

7.6.6HDR – Perceptual Quantizer (PQ)
About PQ
Perceptual Quantizer (PQ ) is an electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) that allows for the display of High Dynamic Range (HDR)
content with a lum inance level of u p to 10 000 cd/m² and can be used with the Rec. 2020 color space.
If your provided HDR content has been mastered with PQ (e.g. Dolby Vision or HDR10), you can adapt the luminance on screen to
adapt to the provided content.
For optimal display of HDR content, this is just one value that will influence the projected image. W hen entering the desired screen luminance, take into account the distance of the projector to the screen an d the quality
of the screen used.

8.4.3Warping – Screen Size
About (Warp) Screen Size adjustment
If the used screen aspect ratio is different than the projector aspect ratio, e.g. source is 16:9 and projector is 16:10, then black bars
will be projected. In the example c ase a black bar on top and bottom of the image will be projected. The warp area contains not
only the image inform ation but also the black bars. If we want to position e.g. the active left top corner exactly on the s creen using
4 corner warp , then it is very hard to do that as we are moving the black left top corner and we do not have control over the exact
position of image left top corner. By moving the outline of the warp screen size to the active image information, the corner points of
the warp area ar e now exactly on the corner points of the active image information and makes warping much easier.

8.4.6Warping – Warp files
About custom Warp Fil es
Next to setting your specific warp configuration in the GUI, you can also upload or download a custom warp grid in XM L format
to/from the projector. This is a time-saving option when multiple projectors need an identical Warp configuration.
To upload or download warp files you can use P rojector Toolset or Prospector tool to upload/download the w arp grid in the format
of an XML file. Alternatively, you can contact the “file endpoint” directly via the curl program or some other tool that supports http
upload.
For more information on uploading/dow nloading Warp files using the Projector Toolset, refer to the Projector Toolset user manual.
For more information on uploading/downloading Warp files using curl or other tools that supports HTTP upload, refer to the Pulse
API Reference Guide.

8.4.7Warping – Latency control in a multi projector setup
Transport latency
The added delay in the image processing c hain. The value is the number of lines relative to the output resolution.
Latency
The total time from the first pixel is coming in on an input source, until the fir st light representing that pixel is visible on
the screen. This includes the transport delay. The value is normally given in m illiseconds.
Functional description
Every projector in a multi–projector setup will have a different latency. Th is latency depends on the amount of warp and on the
frequency of the projected image. In order to have no visible difference in the overall projected image, the user needs to be able to
control the latency of each projector.
The latency v alue can be read ou t in the status menu for each individual projector.
How to configure transport delay?
1. Read out and note the latency of each projector in the multi-projector setup. You can find this latency under Transport delay in
the status menu for each p rojector.

8.5Blending
8.5.1Basic Blend
About
When two projectors are used together to make one picture on the screen, the blend function must be activated. This blend function
ensures a seamless transition of the images between the two projectors.
The principle is that the light intensity in the blend zone from each projector will be adjusted individually, so that the rendering on the
screen are perceived as from one projector.
The blend function can be enabled for both pictures over/under, and pictures side by side.
The blend will not be affected by the projector’s warp.

The Mask adjustments.
The offset adjustments are used to cut the image on each side. Normally used to hide parts of the picture that shall not be shown
on the screen. An example can be: If the source is a pc, you may want to hide the m enu bar at the bottom of the screen.
8.5.2Set up the system
How to set up the system
In this chapter, the setup procedure for the projectors is explained, but a setup procedure must also be performed for the picture
source.
In order to obtain a satisfying result for the Blend function, the overlap / Blend zone are recommended to be
at least 10% of the p icture width.
The basic principle is that the overlap setup in the source shall correspond with the blend width setup for the projector. That means
that if the overlap zone for the source is set to 500 pixels, the width of the blend zone for the projector also must be set to 500 pixels.
First step is to align the image from the projectors as ac curate as possible in a mechanical way, meaning without any optical corrections. A t the same time, establish
Then adjust the remaining irregularities by using the shift and warp features in the projectors to obtain the last fine tuning of the
alignment.
Setup the source to a blend which corresponds with the preset overlap on the screen. There are different ways to do this, depending
on the source. Refer to the source unit’s manual for this issue.
Adjust the Blend for the projectors as described below.

8.5.4Black Level Adjustment
About adjusting the black level
The Purpose of the black level adjustment is to adjust the black levels in the non ov erlapped areas with the black level in the overlapped areas (Blend Zone).
This is a necessary function, due to the fact that the black level will be brighter in the blend zones, since multiple projectors will add
light in these zones.
The width of the black level area shall ideally be slightly larger than the width of the blend zone in order to also compensate for the
“sea of mirrors” phenomenon.
The figure below shows how this occurs in a side by side configuration without any correction of the blac k level.

8.7CLO – constant light output
About
This function will ensure that the projector regulates its illumination power to maintain the same level of output light during the lifetime
of the light source. This requires that the laser power is not set to 100% from the s tart, but to a lower value. The lower this value is
set, the longer the projector will manage to maintain the level. This is due to the fact that the light source has a naturally decreasing
intensity over time.
