On repacking
Save the original shipping carton and packing material; they will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.
On illumination
In order to obtain the best quality for the projected image, it is essential that the ambient light which is allowed to fall on the screen be kept to an absolute minimum.
When installing the projector and screen, care must be taken to avoid exposure to ambient light directly on the screen. Avoid adverse illumination on the screen from direct sunlight or fluorescent lighting fixtures.
The use of controlled ambient lighting, such as incandescent spot light or a dimmer, is recommended for proper room illumination. Where possible, care should also be taken to ensure that the floors and walls of the room in which the projector is to be installed are non­reflecting, dark surfaces. Brighter surfaces will tend to reflect and diffuse the ambient light and hence reduce the contrast of the projected image on the screen.
Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to

Controlling
The BARCOGRAPHICS 1208s can be controlled with
a. the RCU b. the hardwired RCU (cable not included) c. the built-in RCU (local keypad)
The procedure and results of controlling the projector with either of these RCU options is essentially the same.
How to use your RCU
a) Point the front of the RCU towards the reflective screen surface

Plug one end of the remote cable in the connector on the bottom of the RCU and the second side in the connector in the rear panel of the BARCOGRAPHICS 1208s labelled 'REMOTE'.
d) Built-in RCU (local keypad) To gain access to the built-in RCU, see paragraph 'The local keypad'
Projector Address
b) Point the front of the RCU towards one of the IR sensors in the projector.
When using the wireless remote control, make sure you are within the effective operating distance (30m, 100ft in a straight line). The remote control unit will not function properly if strong light strikes the sensor window or if there are obstacles between the remote control unit and the projector's IR sensor. IR Receiver Locations on the Projector:
a. hardware set up of the projector address.
Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255 which is set with hardware DIP switches inside the projector. To change that address, contact a BARCO authorized technician.
b. How to control the projector.
The projector's address may be set to any value between 0 and 255. When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now with :
- the RCU for addresses between 1 and 9.
- computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.
Note : a projector will respond to a RCU set to an address of '0' regardless of what address is set in the projector itself. Address "O" is therefore a universal address.
c. Using your RCU.
Before using your RCU, it is necessary to enter the projector address into the RCU (only when that address is between 1 and 9). The projector with the corresponding address will listen to that specific RCU. When address 0, 'zero address' is programmed into the RCU, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this RCU.

How to display a projector address?
Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil. The projector's address will be displayed in a 'Text box'. This text box
PROJECTOR ADDRESS 001
disappears after a few seconds. To continue using your RCU, it is necessary to enter the same address with the digit buttons (address between 0 and 9). For exemple, if the Adrress Key displays projector address 003, then press the "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU's address to match the projector's address.
How to program an address into the RCU?
Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil and enter the address with the digit buttons. That address can be any digit between 0 and 9. When programming '0', zero address, the RCU will control a projector regardless of the projector's address. This feature allows multiple projectors with different addresses to be controlled by a single RCU.
With the digit buttons on the RCU, it is possible to select input sources, Video, S-Video, RGsB or RGBS, RG3sB or RGB3S.
When a valid and available source is selected, there will be informa­tion displayed on the screen about that source (if "Text" is on). This information includes :
-source number
- horizontal frequency
- vertical frequency
Source 2 Fh= 15.6 kHz Fv= 50 Hz
When the entry is a non valid source number, a warning appears on the screen : 'input not available'.

Orbiting Kit
Static pictures are very often shown on large screen projectors, especially in process control and presentation applications. Due to the fact that the same picture information is shown for a long period in the same place, picture tubes can be damaged by 'local burn-in'. To reduce this problem, a special Orbiting circuit is available which moves the picture very slowly around a predefined screen area. The cycle time is very long to make the movement of the projected image imperceptible. The use of the orbiting kit is described in appendix A. Order number : R9827780
Line Doubler Kit
BARCO's line doubler kit consists of a video decoder with a three-line adaptive Comb filter, an enhancement circuit and the line doubler itself.
- The three-line adaptive Comb filter improves color transitions and teduces noise in the video signal.
- The enhancement circuit integrated in the decoder provides sharper images with clearer outlines.
- The line doubler circuit reduces visible line structure by doubling the number of lines of the video image.
These three circuits work in unison to produce a smoother yet sharper image which is significantly more appealing when watching video images. Order number : R9828161

Orbiting

A
ORBITING
Orbiting (option)
Static pictures are very often shown on large screen projectors, espectially in process control and presentation applications. Due to the fact that the same picture information is shown for a long period on the same place, picture tubes can be damaged by 'local burn-in'.
Adjustment procedure : The orbiting path is automatically added to the Random access adjustment mode menu when installed. Press
ADJUST to enter the adjustment mode and select Random.
The Random Access Adjustment Mode menu will be displayed. Highlight ORBITING by pushing the joy stick forward or backward and press
ENTER.
Orbiting Mode Toggle Switches
The orbiting module is provided with a three pin connector for connection with the BARCO's BCl link option module, used in multiple projector installations. For Orbiting, one projector operates as master wheras the others operate as slave.
To avoid this problem, BARCO has designed special Orbiting circuitry which moves the picture very slow around a predefined screen area. The orbiting circuitry has been designed using a very long cycle time to make the movement of the projected image imperceptible.

Orbiting Alignment
Preparation : Before proceeding to the alignment of the Orbiting default settings, be sure that the Horizontal Phase and the Raster shift are correctly aligned with the Orbiting mode set to OFF.
This alignment must be performed in case of a multiple projector installation with Master and Slave projectors in order to ensure a correct operation of the Orbiting for all projectors.

ADJUSTMENT BLOCKS AND SOURCE
NUMBERS 90 - 99
Adjustment Blocks (memory blocks)
As the projector is digitally controlled, all geometry and convergence adjustments are stored in the projectors memory as numeric values. These numeric values are used to control digital potentiometers which in turn, control the projector. Each source connected to the projector has a unique set of adjustment data which is automatically downloaded into the projectors digital potentiometers once the source has been selected. This set of adjustment data is referred to as an “adjustment block”.
An adjustment table is automatically created for a source when the source is first connected to the projector and the Adjustment mode is entered. If other sources have already been connected to the projector and geometry and convergence adjustments have been performed on these sources, the projector will use Linear Digital Interpolation to create a new block for the new source. This block will provide an initial set of adjustments for the new source that have been calculated by the projector from previous experience”.
The projectors memory has the capacity to store 32 adjustment blocks. The adjustment block consists of two parts, the block header and the data representing the values for all adjustments (eg. Convergence and Geometry) in the projector for the source the block corresponds to. The block header contains the basic characteristics of the source and the projector configuration used to display the source.
Block Header example of block header
Block Number 01 Source Number 01 Horizontal Frequency 15.6 kHz Vertical Frequency 50 Hz Input Type video Scan Switch Configuration Front/Ceiling
The data representing the various adjustments for the source follows the block header.
Source numbers 90 - 99
Source numbers 90 - 99 do not correspond to physical inputs to the projector or RCVDS. They are used to assign an additional adjustment block to a source. This additional adjust­ment block may contain different geometry and convergence settings, sync fast/slow positions and enhanced blue on/off settings. The relationship between source numbers 0 - 9 and 90 - 99 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 and 91 - 95 (stand-alone projector) is shown in the diagram below.
The alternate adjustment block for sources 0 - 9 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 (stand-alone projector) is activated by selecting the corresponding source number 0 - 9 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 (stand-alone projector). Once this source number is selected, the alternate block of adjustment data is in use and may be modified via the adjust mode of the projector. The alternate adjustment block is automatically stored.

source input 9
2. Select the corresponding source number between 90 and 99. The adjustment block for the source number between 0 and 9 is copied to the corresponding source number between 90 and 99.
3. Enter the adjust mode and make any desired changes (geometry, convergence, sync fast/slow, enhanced blue on/off) to the second adjustment block.
