1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.1 Warnings

To prevent personnel injury

The customer should never attempt to disassemble the lamp casing or to dispose of the lamp casing other than by returning it to BARCO.

To prevent injuries and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before connecting to the or adjusting the projector.

To prevent injuries, take note of the weight of the projector. Minimum 4 persons are needed to carry the projector.

NEVER look into the lens ! Due to the high luminance damage to the eye can happen.

Before attempting to remove the projector’s cover, you must turn off the projector and disconnect from the wall outlet.

When performing set up work at a ceiling mounted projector, to prevent injury caused by falling obje out area.

Consult a professional structural engineer prior to suspending the ceiling mount from a structure not intended for that use. Always ensure the working load limit of the structure supporting the projector.

The power input at the projector side is considered as the disconnect device. When me some parts inside, always disconnect the power cord at the projector side.

To prevent projector damage

If the Air Filters are not regularly replaced, the air flow inside the projector could be disrupted, causing overheating. Overheating may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.

In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the proj it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.

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 qualified service personnel.

The projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures free flo hot air exhausted from its cooling system. Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air.

Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as performant laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices (TM) in which case there is a loss of warranty

Overview

• General

• Projector Position

• Configuration

• Safety Area around the projector

• Re-adjusting the lamp position in the lamp casing

• Lenses

• Battery Installation in the RCU

The engines are non sealed versions.

3.1 General

WARNING: Before installing the projector, read first the safety instructions.

3. Installation Guidelines

Ambient Temperature Conditions.

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.

Max. ambient temperature : 35°C or 95 °F

Min. ambient temperature : 10 °C or 50 °F

The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature falls outside this range (10°C- 35°C or 50°F-95°F).

Storage temperature: -35°C to +65°C (-31°F to 149°F)

Humidity Conditions

Storage: 0 to 98 % RH Non-condensing

Operation: 0 to 95 % RH Non-condensing

CAUTION: Harmful Environmenta l Contamination Precaution

Environment

Do not install the projection system in a site near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or humidity. Be aware that room heat rises to the ceil excessive.

ing; check that temperature near the installation site is not

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 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 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 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 precautio inants 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 manufacturer’s warranty and may deem the warranty null and void. In suc 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 wantful neglect, abandon or improper use.

Special Care for Laser Beams

Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as performant laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital MicroMirror Devices™ 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 images and those for rear projection applications.

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 (x1) to a brushed aluminized screen with a gain of 10 (x10) 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 : min 1.00m (3.3ft) to max 15 m (49.2ft conditions), with an aspect ratio of 4 to 3.

3.5 Re-adjusting the lamp position in the lamp casing

WARNING: As the projector has to be opened, this procedure has to be perfo

rmed by qualified service tech-

nician.

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 compensated by readjusting the position of the lamp.

A suggestion dialog box will be displayed when the projector is restarted after 100 hours and 250 hours. Once ENTER is pressed when that box is open, this box will not be displayed again till the next alert point is reached.

This chapter willdescribe the Stereo Connections fore.g. asetup with 2Triple-Channel CADWalls in thesame room e.g. a Showroom. Both CADWalls have there own IG. Weassume only the IG used by CADWall 1 has an Synchronous Output Range.

It is possible to let CADWall 1 work synchronous with IG 1. The projectors of CADWall 2, that are in asynchronous mode, will then display the image at the frequency of IG 1.

Respect the following 2 rules when setting up such a configuration:

1. The IR Emitter must be connected to a projector running in Synchronous Mode.

2. All projectors connected to the synchronous IG must be set in Synchronous Mode.

3. All other projectors (CadWall2, CadWall3, ...) must be set in Forced Asynchronous Mode.

How to connect the Stereo Signals in a Multiple CADWall Configuration (Showroom Installation)?

1. The Stereo Sync Signal coming from both IG’s is connected to the Stereo In Mini DIN Inputs of both Multi-Channel Configurations.

(image 4-9)

Note: On some IG’s, the Stereo Sync is already present in the Vertical Sync Signal.

2. Connect a ’Phased L/R Signal’ BNC Connector of the first projector to a ’Phased L/R Signal’ BNC Connector of the second

projector.

Overview

• Common Address

• Projector Address

• RCU Address

• Input Selection

• Picture Controls

• Menus on Local LCD Display

5.6.1 Common Address What is Common Address 0?

Every projector has a Common Address default set to ’0’, when the RCU is set to address ’0’, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this RCU.

When to use Common Address 0?

• Since the RCU is default set to address ’0’, this is used by default to control the projector in a single projector setup.

• The Common Address is used to control multiple projectors using only a single RCU.

When to use Common Address 1?

Most RCU’s used by other electronic equipment are set to address ’0’, to disable the interference of other RCU’s the Common Address of the projector(s) can be set to ’1’. When the projector’s RCU is set to address ’1’, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this RCU.

How to set the Common Address?

See ’Change Common Address’ in the chapter ’Service Mode’.

5.6.2 Projector Address When to use the Projector Address?

To control a separate projector in a multiple projector setup.

What is the Projector Address?

Each projector can be set to an individual Projector Address, this can be set between ’0’ and ’255’.

Projector Address

0–9

0–255

Regardless of the Projector Address, the projector will still respond to a RCU set to address ’0’ or ’1’ through the Common Address.

6.3.2 Possible file manipulations Connecting a new source.

Before using a new source, a correct file has to be installed. The projector’s memory contains a list of files corresponding to the most used sources. When the new source corresponds with one of these files, the file can be loaded and saved for future use. When 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.

Possible file Manipulations

The following file manipulations are possible :

• Load : installation of a file for a new source.

• Edit : editing a loaded file to the source specs.

• Rename : renaming a file.

• Copy : copying a file.

• Delete : deleting a file

• Options : way of sorting the files.

Vertical refresh [sync/async]

The way of updating the image information on the DMD panels. Not available for PAL-NTSC-SECAM sources. Where this option will be displayed in gray.

• For sources with a vertical frequency up to 62 Hz : the vertical refresh rate is the same as the vertical frequency of the incoming source. This is a necessity to project moving images without ’motion artifacts’. For stationary images with a vertical frequency up to 62 Hz it is still possible to use asynchronous refresh.

• For sources with a vertical frequency higher than 62 Hz : the vertical refresh is different than the vertical frequency of the incoming source. Synchronous refresh cannot be used.

Vertical Sync Polarity: [leading] or [trailing]

The vertical refresh can be synchronized with the leading sync edge or trailing sync edge. Default on [leading]. Toggling to [trailing] is only necessary for special applications where the trailing edge of the sync signal has to be taken as a reference. Use the ENTER key to toggle between [leading] or [trailing]

6.4.3 Input Balance 1 Why adjusting the Input Balance?

The input balance is normally correct adjusted in the factory. But due to signal distribution or signal transmission outputs a color imbalance can be the result. This imbalance can be adjusted source by source for color critical applications. These adjustments influence only the actual custom adjustment file. This procedure is not so easy and is best done or first demonstrated by an authorized Barco service technician.

What can be done?

• When a Mono Image is projected, within this menu, it is possible to adjust the Input Balance of the actual projected source.

• When a Stereo Image is projected, within this menu, it is possible to adjust the Input Balance of the Left Image.

Steps to be taken

To adjust the input balance, the following steps have to be executed in the following order:

1. The procedure is best done when using a source that can generate a full black and full white image.

2. Start with the Black Balance.

3. Continue with the White Balance.

The default values are normally loaded with the factory preset when selecting a source. If the image is not as desired, continue with the next procedure.

6.5.1 Introduction What can be done with the WARP 6™ Geometry adjustments ?

With the new WARP 6™ fitted in theBarco Galaxy WARP™, fixed-matrix projectors can be used in a wide variety of curved-screen applications, ranging from straightforward cylindrical displays to the wildest shapes that can be imagined: by pre-distorting the image inside the projector, a correct geometry can be achieved on curved screens, without requiring additional computational power on the IG’s side. Since WARP 6™ is integrated in the Barco Galaxy WARP™ Pixel Map Processor, it is an elegant and user-friendly solution for even the most demanding applications.

Using the intuitive user interface, bows can be set up and modified in a flash, giving the user real-time access to the dist characteristics. For fine-tuning the image, the user has to access to individual grid points that can be shifted to their desired location.

6.5.7.1 Introduction Howdoesitwork?

• The projected image on the screen is divided in 81 zones. Each zone represents a grid point that can be shifted to the desired

location. These grid points will interact on each other in a hierarchic way, adjusting a grid point on a certain hierarchic level will affect all grid points underneath.

Image 6-15 81 grid points

Image 6-16 Hierarchic editing structure

• On top of this hierarchy are the corner grid points, when adjusting these grid points all other points underneath will be adjusted.

• At the bottom of the structure we find the local points, adjusting these points will not affect any other grid points.

• The best results are obtained by applying the geometry settings in the same top to bottom order as listed in the menu interface.

6.5.7.7 Transport Delay What can be done with the Transport Delay

The first image data the projector receives from the Image Generator is the start of the first active line. However when a top side bow pre-distortion is used, the first image data the projector needs is the image information that is halfway that first active line, to gather all this information before projecting it on the screen, an adjustable Transport Delay is applied on the received image data.
