• Do not immerse or expose this projector in water or other liquids.

• Do not spill liquid of any kind on this projector.

• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the set and have it checked by qualified

service personnel before resuming operations.

• Do not disassemble this projector, always take it to an authorized trained service person when service or

repair work is required.

• Do not use an accessory attachment which is not recommended by the manufacturer.

• Lightning - For added protection for this video product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended

and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the device due to lightning and AC power-line surges.

To prevent personal injury

• To prevent injury and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before

connecting to the wall outlet or adjusting the projector.

• To prevent injury, take note of the weight of the projector.

• To prevent injury, ensure that the lens and all covers are correctly installed. See installation procedures.

• Warning: high intensity light beam. NEVER look into the lens! High luminance could result in damage to the

eye.

• Always switch off the projector and disconnect from the mains power supply before attempting to remove

any of the projector covers or access parts inside the projector.

• This product contains no user serviceable parts. Attempts to modify/replace mechanics or electronics

inside the housing or compartments will violate any warranties and may be hazardous.

• Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious

damage to it and possible injury to the user.

• Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceiling-mount.

To prevent fire hazard

• Barco projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent 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 materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. 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.

• Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!

• Caution! Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to heat nearer than

25 cm (10”) to the exhaust vent.

• Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the

projector and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.

• The openings should never be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface.

Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to avoid overheating. Minimum safety distance to the exhaust area of the unit must not be less than 25 cm (10”) and to the intake area, not less than 25 cm (10”).

• This projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.

• This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is

provided.

• Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable

and combustible materials away from the projector at all times.

• Mount the projector in a well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light.

Always allow ample airflow through the projector.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Safety and environmental information

• Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In the event of fire, use sand, CO2 or dry powder fire

extinguishers.

• Never use water on an electrical fire.

• Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on

genuine Barco replacement parts. Never use non-Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of this projector.

• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid heat buildup.

• Let the projector cool down completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.

To prevent projector damage

• To ensure correct airflow is maintained, the projector should only be operated when all of its covers in

place. The exception from this is the front cover, that can be removed to give access to multiple anchor points. See User Guide for more detailed info regarding this issue.

• Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed, it may melt due

to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may permanently damage the surface of the projection lens

• Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical specification.

Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.

• To ensure correct airflow is maintained, it should only be operated when all of its covers are in place.

• The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and

unimpeded evacuation of the hot air from its cooling system.

• Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product

and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The device should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided. Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and unplug the mains supply immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by Barco authorized service personnel.

• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Minimum safety distance

to the exhaust area of the unit must not be less than 25 cm (10”) and to the intake area, not less than 25 cm (10”).

• Do not use this equipment near water.

2.6.2 Remote control, protocol setup

About the used protocol

The protocol is the code send out by the remote control when a button is pressed. Depending on this code, the projector can decode the signals. The remote control can be used with two different protocols, RC5 and NEC. Depending on the projector to control, the remote control can be switched between these protocols.

Which protocol to use

• The NEC protocol have to be used for Barco projectors based on the Pulse platform: Loki, Balder, F70,

F80, F90, HDX 4K, UDX, ...

• The RC5 protocol have to be use all other Barco projectors: HDX W, HDF W, HDQ 2K, ...

How to set

1. Remove the cover. For more info on how to remove, see “Remote control, battery installation”, page 25.

2. Place the switch in the NEC position.

Image 2-7

Remark with RC5 protocol

Not all buttons of the Pulse RCU are one-to-one compatible with the legacy Barco RCU. Button pairs SHUTTER open/close and POWER on/off emit the same code (per pair) when in RC5 mode, because the legacy RCU’s only had 1 button for Shutter and 1 button for Standby.

2.6.4 Remote control, on/off button

Purpose of the remote control on/off button

The Pulse remote control unit has at the front side an on/off switch (reference 1 Image 2-8). Switching off the remote control prevents that unwanted commands are send due to an accidental key press. Furthermore, switching the RCU off will extend the battery life time of the remote control.

To activate the remote control press the on/off button.

To deactivate the remote control press the on/off button again. Default when (re)placing batteries, is “ON”.

2.6.5 Function of the RGB filter button

Filtering the color of the projected image

By pressing the RGB filter button on the RCU you can place a color filter on the output of the projector. This feature can be useful during the installation and configuration of a multi-projector or multi-channel setup. By having one projector project a red image and another project a green image, it is easier to spot and adjust the overlap section.

By pressing this button multiple times, you will have different active filters, in the following cycle:

• Red + Green + Blue (default)

• Red only

• Green only

• Blue only

• Red + Green

• Green + Blue

• Red + Blue

• Red + Green + Blue

• etc

After powering up, the colors will always revert back to full RGB.

2.6.6 Enable / Disable Remote Control

About

This function are for disabling the IR sensors for the remote control. Either front or rear, or both.

• Select the menu path Home/System Settings/Communication/IR control

• Select which sensors to be disabled.

• Enter the Apply button to confirm the action

When all sensors are turned off, the projector will not receive any signals from the remote control. To enable the sensors again, use the keypad on the projector.

2.6.7 Wired RC connection

Getting to know the projector.

About

The remote control can also be directly wired to the projector from the stereo jack connector on the remote, (See “Functionality overview”, page 27 ), to the RC connector on the back panel of the projector.(See section “Connector Panel”)

In this mode, the projector will not be affected by signals from other non-wired remote controls. When using wired remote control, the broadcast address must be set to “Generic ID (0)”. See the menu in

“Enable / Disable Remote Control”, page 28.

It is not possible to program the remote control in wired mode. (Directly connected, no sense in programming).

2.7 Projector Address

Projector address

Address installed in the projector to be individually controlled.

Broadcast address

Projector will always execute the command coming from a RCU programmed with that broadcast address.

2.7.1 Controlling the projector

Why a projector address?

As more than one projector can be installed in a room, each projector should be separately addressable with an RCU or computer. Therefore each projector has its own address.

Set up an individual Projector Address

The set up of a projector address can be done via the software.

Projector controlling

When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now:

• with the RCU: only for addresses between 1 and 31.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Trigger Out Voltage

No Connection

Getting to know the projector.

Broadcast Address

Every projector has a broadcast (common) address '0' or '1'. The default address is '0'. The choice between '0' and '1' can be selected in the GUI: “System Settings” → “Communication” →“IR Control

“.

Placing new batteries in the remote control or plugging the remote to a projector via a cable will automatically reset the address back to its default value '0'.

The L40 lens mount and lens lever is designed to prevent damage to the lens board while providing an easy and stable lens change procedure.

The lens lever, located at the bottom of the lens mount, slides between two positions, far left (default position — unlocked) and far right (locked).

Always activate the projector shutter before attempting to remove or install a lens. To do this, press the shutter button on the keypad, or shutter Close on the remote, to activate the shutter. The keypad button will illuminate red when the shutter is activated.

Press the shutter button again, or shutter Open on the remote, to deactivate the shutter and resume normal operation. The keypad button will illuminate white when the shutter is deactivated.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Lenses

When changing from a lens with motorized Iris, zoom and focus positioning functionality, to a lens without this functionality (e.g. from a EN 63 to a EN42 lens), it is recommended to power down, and pull the AC cord. This is because the memory of the iris position will not be reset, but will show the position in LCD or OSD for the lens that was removed. When rebooting the projector, the memory will be reset. The reverse scenario will happen when changing from a lens with no motorized positioning support, to a lens with motorized positioning support. The iris position will not be showed with a correct value. The functionality is still present, but the displayed value is not correct.

About

This chapter describes the physical conditions and procedures required when installing the projector. It also describes the outlines and some of the considerations that should be taken in to account when designing and setting up the installation.

Each projector installation is unique, and as such the information in this chapter is only provided as a guideline. Likewise, any images or graphical representations shown here are for illustrative purposes only.

If you require further information and assistance during the installation process, contact a qualified projection technician or your local support office for advice.

CAUTION:

When the projector is installed in a motion platform setup, an additional lens support must be applied, in order to stabilize the lens, and prevent it from separate from the projector and cause damage to equipment and personnel.

This lens support must be adapted to the actual installation. There is no standard solution from Barco available for this purpose.

It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the additional lens fixture is approved.

Projector Power Requirement

Projectors, all in range 100 –240V. 60 –50 Hz.

To protect operating personnel, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommends that the instrument panel and cabinet be grounded.

In no event shall this projector be operated without an adequate cabinet ground connection.

The AC supply must be installed by a qualified electrician in conformance to local codes. Hardware, wire sizes and conduit types must comply with local codes.

Ventilation

To ensure that correct airflow is maintained, the projector must only operated when all the covers are in place. The only exception is the front cover, see “Projector safe attachment points”.

The free space necessary between the air intake and exhaust are shown below.

4.3 Initial inspection

General

Each projector is inspected and rigorously tested at our production facility to ensure that it is free from any mechanical or electrical defects.

Upon receipt of the projector, we recommend that customers inspect the projector for any signs of damage that may have occurred in transit. If damage is found, file a claim with the shipping carrier immediately. Notify the Barco Sales and Service office, or your preferred Barco agent, of the damage as soon as possible.

Box Contents

Your projector box should contain the following:

• Projector unit

• Power cord. (Not all power cords are supplied, see note below).

• Quick start guide

• Safety manual

• Remote Control

If the power cord for your region is not supplied, ensure that the power cord that will be used is according to the regulations for your region. The power cord must be of 3 lead type, where one of the leads is ground. Se also the Safety and Environment Information, chapter 1.2 in this document.

The projector lens is delivered in a separate box.

4.4 Positioning 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.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Physical installation

General guidelines

Proper positioning of the projector lessens the overall picture setup time, and ensures 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 Information Data).

The following guidelines can help you determine the best physical location for the projector.

• Only install the projector on a sturdy flat surface, 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 space around the projector for ventilation and exhaust, as described in section 4.2

• Use the throw ratio of the installed lens as a guideline for the projector’s physical distance from the screen.

• Wherever possible, the projector lens surface should be positioned so that it is perfectly perpendicular to

the center 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.

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 energy for example, motors,

transformers and elevators.

4.5 Mounting 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 mount.

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 and the rig before mounting the projector in the rig

Using 3rd party mounting equipment

The projector has features for mounting into various system environments using 3rd party mounts See “Projector safe attachment points”..

The feet can be removed and threads can be used for additional mounting points. See table below for dimensions.

Where possible, the projector lens must be positioned exactly perpendicular to the center of the screen. Use the projector offset (lens shift), rather than physical angling, to correct any 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 and user.

CAUTION: Always use a Rigging Frame when the projector shall be mounted in other ways than on

the feet, on a flat surface.

4.10 Scheimpflug (Boresight) adjustment

What is Scheimpflug?

The lens holder has to be adjusted so that the “sharp focus plane” of the projected image falls together with the plane of the screen (Fp1→Fp2). This is achieved by changing the distance between the DMD plane and the lens plane (Lp1→Lp2). The closer the lens 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 focused image on the screen due to a tilt (or swing) of the lens plane with respect to the DMD plane. This is also known as Scheimpflug's law. To solve this the lens plane must be placed parallel with the DMD plane. This can be achieved by turning the lens holder to remove the tilt (or swing) between lens plane and DMD plane (Lp3→Lp4).

Image 4-8: Scheimpflug principle

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Physical installation

Scheimpflug principle

The "plane of sharp focus" can be changed so that any plane can be brought into sharp focus. When 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 respect 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 below 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 technicians.

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 Scheimpflug). 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. Therefore it is strongly recommended to place the projector in parallel with the projection screen and use the SHIFT functionality of the Lens Holder to match the projected image with the projection screen. If the SHIFT range is not sufficient then the projector can be tilted and Scheimpflug can be applied.

4.11 Scheimpflug adjustment procedure

CAUTION: A Scheimpflug adjustment should only be carried out by properly qualified and

experienced projection specialists. A poor Scheimpflug adjustment may result in an extremely degraded image and will require factory—servicing to the projector.

Required tools

• Allen key, hex size 4

• Allen key, hex size 6

Preparation

1. Prepare the test area. Barco recommends a projector-screen distance of 2 metres be used for all Scheimpflug

adjustments.

Verify that the throw ratio of the installed lens matches the requirements of the installation area (projection distance and screen size).

2. Check that the lens is correctly installed, and lens shift is in centre position.

3. If the installed lens has Iris control, open the Iris all the way up.

4. Open the focus ring all the way up.

5. Go to Main Menu / Test Patterns / Full Screen and select to display the Focus test pattern.

6. Zoom the lens to its widest opening (maximum image size on the screen).

Apply a Scheimpflug correction

1. Loosen the three set screws (reference 1b, 2b, 3b). Use a size 6 hex key to do this.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Physical installation

Image 4-9

2. Adjust the left side Scheimpflug adjustment screw (reference 1) until the test image in the top right side of the

screen is in focus. Use a size 4 hex key to do this.

Note: This process may cause the other areas of the image to slide out of focus. This is totally normal.

Image 4-10

3. Adjust the right side Scheimpflug adjustment screw (reference 2) until the test image in the top left side of the

screen is in focus. Use a size 4 hex key to do this.

Note: This process may cause the other areas of the image to slide out of focus. This is totally normal.

Image 4-11

4. Adjust the top Scheimpflug adjustment screw (reference 3) until the test image in the bottom half of the screen

is in focus. Use a size 4 hex key to do this.

Note: This process may cause the other areas of the image to slide out of focus. This is totally normal.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Physical installation

Image 4-12

5. Continue adjusting the screws one at a time until the test image is uniformly sharp across all areas of the

display.

6. Test the focus by zooming out (minimum image size on screen) and then zooming in again. Verify the image is

still sharp. If there are any deviations to sharpness, repeat steps 2 to 6 until the image is correct.

7. Tighten the three set screws in the following order: left (1b), right (2b) and then top (3b). Use a size 6 hex key

to do this.

7.5 Gamma adjustment

About gamma correction.

Gamma compensation, or gamma correction, is a way of adjusting 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

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

Image menu

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 different gamma factors that need to be corrected in order to look and be perceived the same. For example, an MS Windows generated image displayed on a CRT monitor will require a gamma correction value of about 2.5 to avoid color bleaching and burning.

The gamma curve correction formula is based on output level ∝ input level ^ gamma.

1. Enter the menu Home/Image, and select Gamma.

2. Use the arrow keys to adjust the Gamma value, until the colors seems to be perceived correctly. The default

value is 2,2.

Image 7-8: Gamma OSD menu, adjusted to value 2.

7.8.6 Displaying HDR content– Perceptual Quantizer (PQ)

About PQ

Perceptual Quantizer (PQ) is a non–linear electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) that allows for the display of High Dynamic Range (HDR) content with a luminance level of up to 10 000 cd/m² and can be used with the Rec. 2020 color space.

How to properly display HDR content?

If your provided HDR content has been mastered with PQ (e.g. HDR10 and Dolby Vision), a few changes can be made in order to project the intended mastering on screen. These changes are necessary because HDR content has been mastered specifically for HDR capable displays that are watched in living rooms. These conditions are different from a non-HDR projector and darker cinema-like environments.

The projected HDR content depends on the following factors:

• Mastering luminance: This is content-specific and cannot be changed.

• Screen luminance: Every projection screen has a specific luminance (measured in nits or foot-lambert).

Entering this luminance in the projector will adapt the content towards the intended HDR result.

• HDR Boost: A variable “booster” that may amplify or downplay the HDR output.

How to set the PQ?

1. In the main menu, select Image → Advanced → PQ.

The PQ menu is displayed.

2. Select the desired Unit (nits or foot-lambert).

3. Enter the Screen luminance (either in nits or foot-lambert).

4. Alter the HDR boost if necessary. You can modify this value to somewhere between 0.8 and 1.2.

7.8.7 HDR Status.

When an active source is HDR, an icon is visible in the status menu. The HDR icon will also be visible in the “Source signal popup” icon in the lower right corner on the screen.

8.4 Scaling modes

General

For the modes Fill Screen and Stretch, the screen size must be defined, see chapter “Warping Screen Size”.

The purpose of the scaling mode is to adapt the image on the screen in an optimal way, based on the desired rendering. The examples below shows a screen format of 2,35:1, and a DMD format 16:10. (WQXGA).

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

DMD Capacity: 1,6 : 1 (2560 x 1600 pixels)

Installation menu

The scaling mode function has four different presets:

• Fill aspect

• 1:1

• Fill Screen

• Stretch.

The illustrations below shows the resolution for WQXGA, and a screen aspect ratio of 2,35:1 (Cinemascope format. But the principle is the same also for other resolutions and screen sizes.(4K, WUXGA / 16:10, 16:9..)

Mode Fill aspect

This mode utilizes so much as possible of the native size of the DMD, and keeps the aspect ratio.

8.5 Warping

8.5.1 About warping

About

Image warping is the process of digitally manipulating an image to compensate for the distortion of the screen, typically by non perpendicular alignment of the projector versus the screen. The image will then typically occur as shown inImage 8-21.

While an image can be transformed in various ways, pure warping doesn’t affect the colors.

Image 8-21

8.5.2 Warping – On/Off

About warping on/off

By toggling between on and off the warping functionality can be enabled or disabled.

How to toggle

8.5.3 Warping – 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 case a black bar on top and bottom of the image will be projected. The warp area contains not only the image information but also the black bars. If we want to position e.g. the active left top corner exactly on the screen 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 are now exactly on the corner points of the active image information and makes warping much easier.

8.5.6 Warping – Warp files

About custom Warp Files

Next to setting your specific warp configuration in the GUI, you can also upload or download a custom warp grid in XML 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 Projector Toolset or Prospector tool to upload/download the warp 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/downloading 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.

When uploading a warp file that is too big, or with warp parameters outside the limits of the projector, some irregularities can occur. It will show up in two ways: 1: No warp enabled, picture still unwarped.

2: Distortions and artifacts in the edges of the picture.

There will be no error messages or warnings in the display when this occurs. The above mentioned symptoms is the only indication of this case.

R5910123 /02 FL40 / FS40 Projectors

8.5.7 Warping – Latency control in a multi projector setup

Transport latency

The added delay in the image processing chain. 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 first light representing that pixel is visible on the screen. This includes the transport delay. The value is normally given in milliseconds.

Functional description

Every projector in a multi–projector setup will have a different latency. This 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 value can be read out 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 projector.

2. Identify the projector with the longest delay.

3. For each projector in the setup, select Installation → Warp in the main menu.

Image 8-47: Installation menu, Warp

4. In the Warp menu, select Transport Delay.

5. Enter the value either by the arrow keys (one step at a time) or directly by the numeric keys on the remote

control.

6. Enter “Apply” to confirm the value.

7. Repeat this process for every projector in the setup.

8.6 Blending

8.6.1 Basic 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 menu bar at the bottom of the screen.

8.6.2 Set 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 picture 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 accurate as possible in a mechanical way, meaning without any optical corrections. At the same time, establish an overlap in the pictures between the two screens.

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.

8.6.3 Adjustment procedure

Blend adjustment procedure

Entering the Blend Adjustment from the Home menu, either by the remote control, or the keypad on the projector.Home/Installation/Blend And Mask/Blend Mask The menu shown below appears on the OSD.

The “Enable” button enables/disables the blend function. The “Show Lines” enables alignment lines on the screen, in order to visualize the overlap/blend zone.
