2. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
2.1Safety warnings
WARNING: Before installing the projector, first read the safety instructions in the safety manual (R5975258)
delivered with the projector.
Insure that the room can be easily evacuated in case of a lamp explosion.
Mercury vapor warnings
Keep the following warnings in mind when using the projector. The lamp used in the projector contains mercury. In case of a lamp
rupture or lamp explosion there will be a mercury vapor emission. In order to minimize the potential risk of inhaling mercury vapors:
•Insure the projector is installed in ventilated rooms only.
•Replace the lamp module before the end of its operational life.
•Promptly ventilate the room after a lamp rupture or lamp explosion has occurred and evacuate the room (particularly in case of
a pregnant woman).
•Seek medical attention if unusual health conditions occur after a lamp rupture or lamp explosion, such as headache, fatigue,
shortness of breath, chest-tightening coughing or nausea.
2.2Installation guidelines
Ambient temperature check
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 : 40 °C or 104 °F
Min. ambient temperature : 0 °C or 32 °F
The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature falls outside this range (0°C- 40°C or 32°F-104°F).
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 ceiling; check that temperature near the installation site is not
excessive
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets as well
as free flow at the ventilation outlets. The installation must also allow easy access to the consumable parts ( dustfilters, lamps, ...)
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. Make sure that the
projector never runs with dirty dustfilters as this will dramatically reduce the lifetime of the consumables. It is advised to clean the
dustfilters on a regular basis and to replace them at any lamp change. Barco reserves itself the right to refuse warranty replacement
of consumables if they have been used in a projector with dirty airfilters. Only use the manufactures recommended cleaning kit which
has been specifically designed for cleaning optical parts, never use industrial strength cleaners on a projectors optics as these will
degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics .
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 non-effective
and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufactures 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 warranty repair if a projector has been subject to wantful
neglect, abandon or improper use.

2. Installation guidelines
What about ambient light ?
The ambient light level of any room is made up of direct or indirect sunlight and the light fixtures in the room. The amount of ambient
light will determine how bright the image will appear. So, avoid direct light on the screen. Windows that face the screen should be
covered by opaque drapery while the set is being viewed. It is desirable to install the projection system in a room whose walls and
floor are of non-reflecting material. The use of recessed ceiling lights and a method of dimming those lights to an acceptable level
is also important. Too much ambient light will ‘wash out’ of the projected image. This appears as less contrast between the darkest
and lightest parts of the image. With bigger screens, the ‘wash out’ becomes more important. As a general rule, darken the room to
the point where there is just sufficient light to read or write comfortably. Spot lighting is desirable for illuminating small areas so that
interference with the screen is minimal.
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.
Image size
The projector is designed for projecting an image size with a screenwidth from
4to3.
1.00m (3.3ft) to 6.00m (19.7ft) with an aspect ratio of
Image retention
Image retention can affect LCD projectors, in extreme cases, permanent “burn” can occur if still/repetitive images are left on the
screen for long periods of time. Such damage to the panels is NOT covered by warranty.
Please ensure that the following precautions are taken to avoid this phenomenon :
1.Use a screensaver (that moves)
2.Periodically change/alter any background images on the desktop
3.Turn off the projector when not in use.

3.4Positioning the projector
On-Axis projection
Projection where the projector is positioned so as to have the centre of the lens coinciding with the centre of the screen.
Positioning the projector
The position of the projector with reference to the screen may also be different depending on the installation. Basically the projector
can be positioned in an On-Axis or Off-Axis configuration. Several parameters can be calculated determining the position in any
installation.

A 100% Off-Axis position means that the position of the centre of the lens is shifted by half the screen height.
Never use a short throw lens in an Off-Axis installation. Shifting the lens will not guarantee optimal image
quality.
CAUTION: Only for projectors containing a Server (Single Board Computer) : The hard disk in the server is
formatted in horizontal position but can operate in all axes (6 directions). The projector should not be tilted
more then +/- 5 degrees from these positions, otherwise error rates will increase.

DVI
Digital Visual Interface is a display interface developed in response to the proliferation of digital flat panel displays.
The digital video connectivity standard that was developed by DDWG (Digital Display Work Group). This connection
standard offers two different connectors: one with 24 pins that handles digital video signals only, and one with 29 pins
that handles both digital and analog video. This standard uses TMDS (Transition Minimized Differential Signal) from
Silicon Image and DDC (Display Data Channel) from VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association).
DVI can be single or dual link.
