3.1 General
3. Installation Guidelines
Before installing the projector, read first the safety instructions.
Ambient Temperature Conditions.
Careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector plac ement and type of screen to use are critical to
the optimum use of the projection system.
Max. ambient temperature : 35
Min. ambient temperature : 10
The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature falls outside this range (10
Storage tempe rature: -35
C or 104 F
Cor50 F
C- 35 Cor50F-10 F-95 F).
Cto+65C (-25.6 F to 149 F)
Humidity Conditions
Storage: 0 to 98 % RH Non-condensing
Operation: 0 to 95 % RH Non-condensing
Harmful Environmental Contamination Precaution
Environment
Do not install the projection system in a site near heat sources such as r adiators or air duc ts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or humidity. Be aware that room heat rises to the ceiling; check that temperature near the installation site is not
excessive.
Environment condition check
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets. For
installations in environm ents 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 to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a pre requisite, if this is not a
feasible solution then m easures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered.
Only ever use t he manufactures recommended cleaning kit w hich has been specifically des igned for cleaning optical parts, never
use industrial strength cleaners on a projectors optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics
components. F ailure 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

non-effective and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the m anufactures 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 manufacture reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to
wantful neglect, abandon or improper use.
Special Care for Laser Beams
Special care should be used when DLP projectors are us ed in the same room as performant laser equipment. Direct or indirect
hitting of a laser beam on to the lens c an severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices (TM ) in which case there is a loss of warranty
Which screen type ?
There are two major categories of screens used for projection equipment. Those used for front projected im ages and those for rear
projection applications.
Screens are rated by how much light they reflect (or transmit in the case of rear projection sy stems) given a determined amount
of light projected toward them. The ‘GAIN’ of a screen is the term us ed. Front and rear screens are both rated in terms of gain.
The gain of screens range from a white m atte screen with a gain of 1 (x1) to a brushed aluminize
or more. The choice between higher and lower gain screens is largely a matter of personal p reference 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 g ain screen will provide a brighter picture but
about screens, contact your local screen supplier.
reduce the viewing angle. For more information
dscreenwithagainof10(x10)
What image size? How big should the image be?
The projector is designed for projecting an image size : min 1.00m (3.3ft) to max (15 m 49.2ft) (depending on the ambient light
conditions), with a aspect ratio of 4 to 3.
3.2 Configuration
Which configuration can be used?
The projector can be installed to project ima ges in four different configurations.
• Front Table
• Front Ceiling
• Rear Table
• Rear Ceiling
Positioning the projector
The Projector should be installed perpendicular with the screen on a distance PD and water leveled in both directions. The mounting

3.4 Re-adjusting the lamp position in the lamp casing
3. Installation Guidelines
As the projector has to be opened, this procedure has to be perf
ormed by qualified service technician.
Why
With higher run times, the light output of the lamp will decrease, which results in a lower light output on the screen. This light output
decrease can be c ompen sated by readjusting the position of the lamp.
How to readjust.
1. On the side o f the inputs, turn the retaining bolt a quarter counter clockwise.
2. Flip the cover to the left side and take off. (image 3-4)
3. Start up the adjustment mode and select Service. (menu 3-1)
4. Select Lamp . The Z-axis indication (lamp menu in service mode) will be helpful while turning screw B . (menu 3-2)
5. Loosen the nut A (image 3-5)on the back of the lamp casing (nutdriver 10).
6. Adjust the screw B (image 3-5)with an Allen key by turning a little clock wise until the maximum light output is reached (the maximum value of the Z-AXIS indication on the lamp m enu).
7. Fasten the nut on the back of the lamp casing to secure this position (nutdriver 10).

3.5.5 Cleaning the lens
Image 3-7
Mounted Lens
To minimize the possibility of dam aging the optical coating or scratching exposed lens surface, we have developed recom m enda tions for cleaning the lens. FIRST, we reco mm end you try to remove any material from
the lens by blowing it off w ith clean, dry deionized air. DO NOT use any liquid to clean the lenses.
Necessary tools
TorayseeTMcloth (delivered together with the lens kit). Order number : R379058.
Howtocleanthelens?
Proceed as follow :
TM
1. Always wipe lenses with a CLEAN Toraysee
2. Always wipe lenses in a single direction.
Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.
3. Do not leave cleaning cloth in either an open room or lab coat pocket, as doing so can contaminate the cloth.
4. If smears occur when cleaning lenses, replace the cloth. Smears a re the first indication of a dirty cloth.
Do not use fabric softener when w ash ing the cleaning cloth or so ftener sheets when drying the cloth.
Do not use liquid cleaners on the cloth as doing so will contaminate the cloth.
Other lenses can also be cleaned safely with this TorayseeTMcloth.
