2.1Safety warnings
WARNING: Before installing the projector, read first the safety instructions in the safety manual (R5975258)
delivered with the projector.
Insure that the projector is installed in an easy to evacuate room 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, explosion there will be a mercury vapor emission. In order to minimize the potential risk of inhaling mercury vapors:
•Ensure the projector is installed only in ventilated rooms.
•Replace the lamp module before the end of its operational life.
•Promptly ventilate the room after a lamp rupture, explosion has occurred, evacuate the room (particularly in case of a pregnant
woman).
•Seek medical attention if unusual health conditions occur after a lamp rupture, 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

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 su

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 an
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 aluminiz
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 bright

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.

4.4Setting up the RCU address
What has to be done ?
To allow the communication between the RCU and the projector the RCU has to be programmed with the same address as the
projector.
This address must be in the range 0–9.
To know the address of the projector, one can visualize it in projection mode (on screen) as well as in standby mode (shown with
the LED’s on top cover of the projector).
For more info on addresses see the appendix
At this stage the image projected may happen to be upside down or mirrored, this can be set in the Installation
menu under Projector orientation (see further setting up the projector’s orientation).
Displaying the Projector Address in Standby mode
1. Press the Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil. (image 4-4)
All the LED’s (3) on the top cover of the projector go out.
Then LED1 starts blinking green the number of hundreds. After that LED2 starts blinking the number of tens. Finally LED3 starts
blinking green the number of units. If this is done, the original status of the LED’s is restored.

Displaying the Projector Address in projection mode)
1. Press the Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
The projector’s address will be displayed on the screen in a Textbox
Programming the RCU
1. Push the address key If the address is not entered within 5 seconds, the RCU returns to its default address (zero address) and
controls then all projectors in the room.
2. Enter the same address with the digit buttons within 5 seconds after pushing the address key.
The projector can now be controlled with the RCU.
For example : if the projector address is 3, then press "3" on the RCU to set the RCU’s address to match the
projector’s address.
Common address/Projector address : Beside the projector address, the projector disposes also of a Common
address which can be set to “0” or “1” (by defaul
t“0”).
In other words, an RCU set to address “0” will always control a projector regardless of its projector address
(since it uses the common address).

6.4.2Aspect ratio
Aspect ratios
The standard aspect ratio used in broadcast television is the 4:3 ratio. However, most of the DVD sources use nowadays the
widescreen 16:9 or even the cinemascope 2.35:1 aspect ratio.
Some DVD sources may even use the anamorphic 16:9 or anamorphic 2.35:1 to take advantage of the higher vertical resolution
offered by the 4:3 ratio. The “anamorphic” term means that the original widescreen image is squeezed in order to fit the 4:3 aspect
ratio.

Native resolution of the LCD panels = 1400 x 1050 pixels (4:3)
What can be done ?
The aim here is to always show the resolution of the source independently of the resolution of the LCD panels. This way better
image reproduction is obtained since no up or down scaling is done on the source.

The CIE chromaticity diagram
A projector can only reproduce a certain color gamut within this diagram. This color gamut is defined by the triangle formed by the
x, y coordinates of Red Green and Blue. These parameters are used by the DynaColor™ adjustment.

The projector color gamut is defined by the triangle formed by the x, y coordinates of Red Green and Blue
Due to the tolerance on optical components the x, y values of this color gamut of each projector will differ.

The objective of input balancin
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
The same absolute black and white level for the three colors allows the same reference for Brightness and contrast control of 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).
