To prevent fire hazard
•Warning “Risk of fire”. Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector !
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. The exclusion zone must be not
less than 40 cm (16”) for all Barco DLP projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 2 meter (80”).
•Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation.
•To reduce the lamp heat of the projector, switch the projector first to standby and let the projector lamp cool down for at least 5
minutes. Then the projector may be switched off with the power switch.

About this chapter
Read this chapter before installing your FLM R20+ Performer. It contains important information concerning installation requirements
for the FLM R20+ Performer, such as minimum and maximum allowed ambient temperature, humidity conditions, required safety
area around the installed projector, required power net, compatible signal sources, etc.
Furthermore, careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type of screen to use
are critical to the optimum use of the projection system.

Clean air environment
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures th
installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines or
similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading
performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable t
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not a
feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.
Only ever use the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning kit which has been specifically designed for cleaning optical parts, never
use industrial strength cleaners on the projector’s optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics
components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contaminants will culminate in extensive and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will
be noneffective and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufacturer’s warranty
and may deem the warranty null and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any
repair. It is the clients responsibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne
particles in the environment of the projector. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to
knowingly neglect, abandon or improper use.

Which screen type ?
There are two major categories of screens used for projection equipment. Those used for front projected images and those for rear
projection applications.

2. General
Screens are rated by how much light they reflect (or transmit in the case of rear projection systems) given a determined amount
of light projected toward them. The ‘GAIN’ of a screen is the term used. Front and rear screens are both rated in terms of gain.
The gain of screens range from a white matte screen with a gain of 1 (x 1) to a brushed aluminized screen with a gain of 10 (x 10)
or more. The choice between higher and lower gain screens is largely a matter of personal preference and another consideration
called the viewing angle. In considering the type of screen to choose, determine where the viewers will be located and go for the
highest gain screen possible. A high gain screen will provide a brighter picture but reduce the viewing angle. For more information
about screens, contact your local screen supplier.
What image size? How big should the image be?
The projector is designed for projecting an image size : minimum 1 meter (3.3 ft.) to maximum 18 meter (59 ft.) (depending on the
ambient light conditions), with an aspect ratio of 4 to 3.
2.2Unpacking the projector
What has to be done ?
At delivery the projector is packed in a carton box upon a wooden pallet and secured with banding and fastening clips. Furthermore,
to provide protection during transportation, the projector is surrounded with foam. O

3.2.1Available lenses
Available lenses for the FLM R20+ Performer
The TLD and the TLD HB (High Brightness) lens series can be used on the FLM R20+ Performer. Note that there is no physical
difference on the outside between the TLD and the TLD HB lenses with
mended on the FLM R20+ Performer. Note that the classical TLD lenses have approximately 20% less light output compared to the
TLD HB lenses, but 25% more contrast.
The throw ratio of TLD (HB) lenses is slightly reduced when used on FLM projectors. The reason of this
decrease is the larger active field of the SXGA+ DMD chip set used in the FLM projector.

5.2Input source connections
General
The input and communication unit is equipped with four input slots, which accept any type of input module designed for the FLM
projector. The modularity of the input modules makes the FLM projector very flexible regarding input source connectivity. Note that
the slot numbering is done from top to bottom. So, the uppermost slot is slot number “1”, the second is slot number “2”... etc. All
input modules have two status LED’s. The green LED lights up if the input module is selected as the active input module. The yellow
LED lights up if the input module has detected valid input syncs.

Projector status
The projector “status” LED (B) lights up green while in operation. The same LED lights up red when the projector is switched to
standby.
Besides the projector status LED (B) the communication interface has also a “warning” LED (A) which blinks in case the projector
encounters an internal problem concerning fan speed, temperature, supply voltages, ... etc. These type of problems still allows
the projector to operate (the show can go on) but an action will be required within a short time period. More information about the
involved problem is given on the local LCD display of the projector.
A two character 7-seg
ment display (C) shows, during normal operation, the selected input slot number. If an error has occurred then
an error code appears on this two digit LED display.
IR communication (RC5)
An IR receiver (D) is mounted on the communication interface. Note that there is also an IR receiver mounted at the front and at the
rear of the projector. When using the remote control unit (wired or wireless), the “IR REC” (I) and the “IR OK” (J) LED’s will light up
indicating an IR signal was received and recognized.

Wired remote control
If desired the remote control unit can be wired and plugged in into the 3,5 mm mini jack socket (L) or, when using a rugged wire
with XLR plugs, plugged in into the male XLR port (M) on the communication interface. Besides the XLR input port a female XLR
connector (N) for wired RC5 output is provided. This connector creates a buffered RC5 signal, available for the next projector in
the daisy chain. Whenever the projector has no power, a passive loop through is created from the remote control input port to the
female XLR output port (N). So, the following projector in the daisy chain will still receive his RC5 code. Note that the RC5 in/out
signals are without carrier.

RS232/422 serial communication
The communication interface of the FLM R20+ Performer supports RS232 and RS422 serial communication. You can use the
RS232/RS422 input port (O) to connect a local PC to your FLM projector. This way you can configure and control your FLM projector
from your local PC.
Do not forget to set the projector’s baud rate (default = 115200) to match that of the computer.
The communication interface has also an active RS232/RS422 loop through output port (E). Whenever the projector has no power, a
passive loop through is created from the RS232/RS422 input port (O) to the RS232/RS422 output port (E). So, the following projector
in the daisy chain will still receive his RS232/RS422 commands.
Advantages of using RS232/RS422 serial communication:
•easy adjustment of the projector via PC (or MAC).
•allow storage of multiple projector configurations and set ups.
•wide range of control possibilities.
•address range from 0 to 255.
•sending data to the projector (update).
•copying data from the projector (backup).

An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) serial digital interface standard specifying the characteristics of the communication path between two devices using either DB-9 or DB-25 connectors. This standard is used for relatively
short-range communications and does not specify balanced control lines. RS-232 is a
set number of conductors, data rate, word length and type of connector to be used. The standard specifies component
connection standards with regard to computer interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version of the
RS-232 standard, and is functionally identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logic
The range between -3V and +3V is a the transition zone.

RS422
An EIA serial digital interface standard that specifies the electrical characteristics of balanced (differential) voltage,
digital interface circuits. This standard is usable over longer distances than RS-232. This signal governs the asynchronous transmission of computer data at speeds of up to 920,000 bits per second. It is also used as the serial port
standard for Macintosh computers. When the difference between the 2 lines is < - 0.2V that equals with a logical ’0’.
When the difference is > +0.2V that equals to a logical ’1’..
Ethernet network communication
The FLM projector can be connected to a LAN (local area network) using port 1 (F) or port 2 (G) on the communication interface.
Once connected to the LAN, users are capable of accessing the projector from any location, inside or outside (if allowed) their
company network using the FLM control software: Projector Toolset. This toolset locates the projector on the network in case there
is a DHCP server or the user can insert the correct IP-address of the projector to access the projector. Once accessed, it is possible
to check and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote diagnostics, control and monitoring of the projector can then become a
daily and very simple operation. The network connectivity permits to detect potential errors and consequently improve the time to
servicing.
As there is a need to daisy chain projectors when they are in Ethernet network, an Ethernet switch is build in. the incoming network
is hereby available for the internal PC and for the
The switch used is a stand alone 10/100Mbit Ethernet switch. This assures no influence on the network speed. Whenever a slow
(10Mbit) device is connected the speed between the 100Mbit devices remains 100Mbit.
Both Ethernet ports (F & G) are equipped with a yellow and green a LED. The yellow LED lights up in case the port is connected
with a 100Mbit network. The green LED blinks in case there is network activity.
The connectors used for both Ethernet ports (F & G) are of rugged Neutrik EtherCon RJ45 type, which is
compatible with standard RJ45 cable connector. Straight (most common) as well as cross linked network
cables can be used. The 2 ports are functionally identical. Both ports are connected via the projector hub

USB port
The communication interface is equipped with a master USB port, type “A” connector (H). This USB port will simplify the service
procedures for software updates or for taking backup files from the projector without network connection. An USB-stick is plugged
into the USB port and files can be transferred from or to the projector using the local or remote control unit. Note that the USB-stick
has to be Linux FAT16 compatible.
Card bus connector (PCMCIA)
This card bus connector (type II) allows you to connect your FLM projector with your LAN, using a wireless-LAN card supported by
Barco.

6.6.1Displaying and Programming addresses
Displaying the Projector Address on the Screen.
1. Press Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
The projector’s address will be displayed in a ’Text box’
To continue using the RCU with that specific address, it is necessary to enter the same address with the
digit buttons (address between 0 and 9) within 5 seconds after pushing the address key. For example : if the
Address key displays projector address 003, then press "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU’s address
to match the projector’s address. Do not press 003 digits. This will address the remote control to ’0’ and
control all projectors in the room. If the address is not entered within 5 seconds, the RCU returns to its default
address (zero address) and control all projectors in the room.
How to Program an Address into the RCU?
1. Press the Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
2. Enter the address with the digit buttons within 5 seconds after pushing the address key.
Note: That address can be any digit between 0 and 9.
The LED on the remote control must lit up while pressing a digit key. Otherwise the address is not entered in
the remote control.
6. Getting started
6.6.2Controlling the projector
Projector address
Address installed in the projector to be individually controlled.
Common address
Projector will always execute the command coming from a RCU programmed with that common address.
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. See xxx in chapter ’Projector Control’.
Projector controlling.
Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255 which can be set in the Service mode.
•computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.
Common Address
Every projector has a common address ’0’ or ’1’. The choice between ’0’ and ’1’ can be selected in xxx.

Overview
Each input module must be configured before these module can be used. This configuration is necessary so that the projector knows
which type of signal is connected to its input.
The projector has 4 input slots and these slots can be filled up in a random order with the available modules. Identical modules are
allowed.
For more information about the available input modules and how to install, see "Input source connections", page 35.
CAUTION: Always install a cover plate on an unused input slot. This to prevent dust intrusion into the pro-
jector.

•Adjusting the input balance
9.3.9.1Introduction to Input Balance
Introduction: Unbalanced color signals
When transporting signals, there is always a risk of deterioration of the information contained in the signals.
In case of information contained in the amplitude of the signals which is the case of data color signals (R, G, B),image 9-42 , we are
quite sure that the amplitude of these color signals is subject to alterations.
An example of alteration may be a DC component added to the signal, in the form of a DC offset repositioning the black level, since
this black level (“brightness”) will become crucial later on (clamping circuit) it will result in “black not being black”.
Another value that is subject to alteration is the amplitude of the signal, resulting in an altered “Gain” of the signal (“white level” or
contrast).
The alterations of the three color signals will happen independently i.e. the colors will end to be unbalanced, image 9-43

The objective of input balancing
The objective in input balancing is to “set” the same black level and the same white level for the three colors of a particular input
source.
Black level setting : brightness
White level setting : contrast
same absolute black and white level for the three colors allow the same reference for Brightness and contrast control of the
The
picture !
These two references also set the range in which the ADC will work for that particular source (this explains also why each input
balance setting is linked to a particular source and thus saved in the image file).
9.3.9.2Adjusting the input balance
How can it be done ?
To balance the three color signals of a particular source there are conditions; in fact we must know the black and the white level of
the source i.e. :
1.The source in question must be able to generate a white signal, ideally a 100% white (background) full screen pattern
2.The source in question must be able to generate a black signal, ideally a 100% black (background) full screen pattern

there is a little difference, the file can also be loaded and then edited until the source specs are reached.
file loading can be done automatically (). Files with a ~ in front of the file name are temporary files. These files
will be deleted when switching to another source.

•Load : installation of a file for a new source.
•Rename : renaming a file.
•Delete : deleting a file (only custom files)
