absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external surfaces of the projector whereby no
flammable or combustible materials are present.
•Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
•For the Loki projector, the exclusion zone on the lens side within the light beam must be at least 1,5m.
•Caution! Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to heat nearer than
100 cm (40”) to the exhaust vent.
•Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the
projector and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.
•The openings should never be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface.
Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to avoid overheating. Minimum safety distance to the
exhaust area of the unit must not be less than 100 cm (40”) and to the intake area, not less than 50 cm
(20”).
•This projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.
•This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is
provided.
•Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable

to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may permanently damage the
surface of the projection lens
•Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical specification.
Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of
the unit.
•To ensure correct airflow is maintained, it should only be operated when all of its covers are in place.
•The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and
unimpeded evacuation of the hot air from its cooling system.
•Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product
and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should
never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should
never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The device should not be placed in a built-in
installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided. 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 Barco authorized service personnel.
•Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Minimum safety distance
to the exhaust area of the unit must not be less than 100 cm (40”) and to the intake area, not less than 50
cm (20”).
•Do not use this equipment near water.
•Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications as this may result in
overheating and malfunction.
•Never place the projector in direct sun light. Sun light on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror

2.8.2 Remote control, protocol setup
About the used protocol
The protocol is the code send out by the remote control when a button is pressed. Depending on this code, the
projector can decode the signals. The remote control can be used with two different protocols, RC5 and NEC.
Depending on the projector to control the remote control can be switched between these protocols.
Which protocol to use
•The NEC protocol have to be used for Barco projectors based on the Pulse platform: Loki, Balder, F70,
F80, F90, HDX 4K, UDX, ...
•The RC5 protocol have to be use all other Barco projectors: HDX W, HDF W, HDQ 2K, ...
How to set
1.Remove the cover. For more info on how to remove, see “Remote control, Battery installation”, page 23.
2.Place the switch in the NEC position.
Image 2-7
Remark with RC5 protocol
Not all buttons of the Pulse RCU are one-to-one compatible with the legacy Barco RCU. Button pairs
SHUTTER open/close and POWER on/off emit the same code (per pair) when in RC5 mode, because the
legacy RCU’s only had 1 button for Shutter and 1 button for Standby.

2.8.5 Function of the RGB filter button
Filtering the color of the projected image
By pressing the RGB filter button on the RCU you can place a color filter on the output of the projector. This
feature can be useful during the installation and configuration of a multi-projector or multi-channel setup. By
having one projector project a red image and another project a green image, it is easier to spot and adjust the
overlap section.
By pressing this button multiple times, you will have different active filters, in the following cycle:
•Red + Green + Blue (default)
•Red only
•Green only
•Blue only
•Red + Green
•Green + Blue
•Red + Blue
•Red + Green + Blue
•etc
After powering up, the colors will always revert back to full RGB.

601–0446 /03 Loki27
Getting to know the projector
When all sensors are turned off, the projector will not receive any signals from the remote control.
To enable the sensors again, use the keypad on the projector.
2.8.7 Wired RC connection
About
The remote control can also be directly wired to the projector from the stereo jack connector on the remote,
(See “Functionality overview”, page 26 ), to the RC connector on the back panel of the projector.(See section
“Connector Panel”)
In this mode, the projector will not be affected by signals from other non-wired remote controls.
When using wired remote control, the broadcast address must be set to “Generic ID (0)”. See the menu in
“Enable / Disable Remote Control”, page 27.
It is not possible to program the remote control in wired mode. (Directly connected, no sense in programming).
2.9 Projector Address
Projector address
Address installed in the projector to be individually controlled.
Broadcast address
Projector will always execute the command coming from a RCU programmed with that broadcast
address.
2.9.1 Controlling the projector
Why a projector address?
As more than one projector can be installed in a room, each projector should be separately addressable with
an RCU or computer. Therefore each projector has its own address.
Set up an individual Projector Address
The set up of a projector address can be done via the software.
Projector controlling
When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now:
•with the RCU: only for addresses between 1 and 31.
Broadcast Address
Every projector has a broadcast (common) address '0' or '1'. The default address is '0'.
The choice between '0' and '1' can be selected in the GUI: “System Settings” → “Communication” →“IR Control
“.
Placing new batteries in the remote control or plugging the remote to a projector via a cable will
automatically reset the address back to its default value '0'.
2.10 Connector panel

WHITE during the transition from ON to READY. Once the projector is in READY, thePower on/off button will
be lit WHITE.
3.4.5 Going from READY to ECO standby
Description
If ECO Standby mode is enabled in the service menu (refer to the section "GUI - system settings/Standby
ECO", in User Guide) the projector will automatically go to ECO standby mode after a time-out (default 15
minutes). All electronics (including fans, pumps,...) go down except for a very small wake up controller. The
Power on/off button will FLASH WHITE every second.
3.4.6 Going from ECO to ON
Description
Press the Power on/off button on the projector, or the Power On button on the remote control. The projector
goes from ECO directly to ON. The projector will go through the same booting phase as on power plugging,
then do the transition from READY to ON. Of course startup-time will be longer then from READY to ON.
3.4.7 Wake On LAN (WOL)
About
The projector has WOL functionality, that can be used for the projector to go from ECO mode to READY
mode. Use a json command for transition from READY to ON.
The WOL is performed by sending a Magic Packet followed by the projectors MAC address. The MAC
address is found in the menuHome / System settings / Communication / LAN. The MAC address is similar to
the HW address that is shown in this menu path.

Cleaning the projector
5.1 Projector lenses
General guidelines for cleaning projector lenses
Blow off dust with clean compressed air (or pressurized air cans) .
Use lens cleaner and a clean lens cleaning cloth to remove the dust and contamination.
Wipe in broad strokes, in one direction only.
Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.
Use a dry clean lens cleaning cloth to remove left liquid or stripes. Polish with small circles.
If there are still fingerprints on the surface, repeat with lens cleaner and a clean lens cleaning cloth, then polish
again with a dry cloth.
If smears occur when cleaning lenses, replace the cloth. Smears are the first indication of a dirty
cloth.
5.2 Projector cabinet
WARNING: Always disconnect the projector from the mains power net before attempting to clean
the projector cabinet.
General guidelines for cleaning the projector cabinet (exterior only)
Clean the housing of the projector with a damp cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly
dampened with a mild detergent solution.
5.3 Filters
General info regarding Air intake and filters.
The product is shipped default without any filters and by avoiding filters, the ventilation system operates for
longer periods between maintenance, since no clogging of filters means more air is allowed through the
system, resulting in lower operating temperatures over time. The air intake are just protected by a mesh. This
mesh has to be vacuum cleaned occasionally when needed. No specific interval for this operation, but to be
performed when needed.
For more demanding surrounds both smoke and dust filters can be applied externally to the system to avoid
internal fouling.
General guidelines for cleaning projector filters (external)
Remove the filter from the projector then use a vacuum to remove excess dust from the filter. Do not wet or
soak the filter.
Cleaning of the projector filter should be done in a separate room to avoid dust contamination.

Risk Group 3 Safety
6.1 General considerations
Notice on optical radiation from Loki Projector when it becomes Risk Group 3.
•For RG3, no direct exposure to the beam shall be permitted.
For RG3, operators shall control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at a
height that will prevent eye exposure within the hazard distance.
•This projector has two (2) built-in Class 4 laser clusters. Disassembly or modification is very dangerous
and should never be attempted.
•Any operation or adjustment not specifically instructed by the user’s guide creates the risk of hazardous
laser radiation exposure.
•Do not open or disassemble the projector as this may cause damage by the exposure of laser radiation.
FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY means installation can only be carried out by Barco AUTHORIZED
PERSONNEL familiar with potential hazards associated with high intensity light beams.
6.2 Safety Training provided by the installer
Refer to document 601–0462 “Declaration of user safety training” for training tick off and signing.
WARNING: The installer is responsible that the user is instructed. The user will sign a document to
confirm that the instructions have been received and understood.
Users definition
The Loki projector is intended for persons who have been instructed and trained by Barco authorized
personnel to identify energy sources that may cause injury and to take precautions to avoid unintentional
contact with or exposure to those energy sources.
This personnel must instruct the user about:
•High intensity light beam. The user must respect the exclusion zone, based on the light beam Hazard
Distance (HD).
•Dangerous energy sources inside the projector. The user is not allowed to remove any cover from the
projector.
•The installation, maintenance or service is for skilled persons only.
•The requirements for a restricted access location and an exclusion zone.
Restricted access location
To protect untrained persons and children, the projector must be installed in a restricted access location.
The definition of a restricted access location is a location for equipment where both of the following
paragraphs apply:
•Access can only be gained by Barco authorized personnel or persons who have been instructed and
trained by a skilled person. The persons must have been instructed about the reasons for the restriction
applied to the location and about the precautions that shall be taken.
•Access is only possible through the use of the tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is
controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
Why a restricted access location: This is a RG3 product. Based on international requirements, no person is
allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between the projection lens and the related Hazard
Distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating sufficient separation height or by placing
optional barriers. Within the restricted area operator training is considered sufficient. The applicable
separation heights are discussed in “High Brightness Precautions”, page 49

6.3 High Brightness Precautions
Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD (Hazard Distance).
The HD depends on the amount of lumens produced by the projector and the type of lens installed. See next
chapter"HD in function of the lens Throw Ratio (TR)", page 8 .
To protect untrained end users (as cinema visitors) the installation shall comply with the following installation
requirements: Operators shall control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at
the height that will prevent spectators’ eyes from being in the hazard distance. Radiation levels in excess of
the limits will not be permitted at any point less than 2.0 meter (SH) above any surface upon which persons
other than operators, performers, or employees are permitted to stand or less than 1.0 meter (SH) lateral
separation from any place where such persons are permitted to be. In non-cinema environments where
unrestrained behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or
equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential exposure, for example by an individual sitting on another individual’s
shoulders, within the HD.
These values are minimum values and are based on the guidance provided in IEC 62471-5:2015 section
6.6.5.
The end user must understand the risk and apply protective measures based upon the hazard distance as
indicated on the label and in the user information. Installation method, barriers, detection system or other
applicable control measure shall prevent hazardous eye access to the radiation within the hazard distance.
For example, projectors that have a HD greater than 1 m and emit light into an uncontrolled area where
persons may be present should be positioned in accordance with “the fixed projector installation” parameters,
resulting in a HD that does not extend into the audience area unless the beam is at least 2.0 meter above the
floor level. In non-cinema environments where unrestrained behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum
separation height should be greater than or equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential exposure, for example by
an individual sitting on another individual’s shoulders, within the HD. For example, a sufficiently large
separation height may be achieved by mounting the image projector on the ceiling or through the use of
physical barriers.
For applications installed in the USA market the above limits for cinema like environments do not apply. The
relevant minimum separation height is 2.5m (8,2 ft) by the FDA CDRH. Non cinema like environments require
2.5 meter (8.2 ft) separation height and 1.0 meter (3.3 ft) separation width for areas where restrained behavior
is to be expected. All other areas require 3.0 (9.9 ft) separation height.

Risk Group 3 Safety
Based on national requirements, no person is allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between
the projection lens and the related hazard distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating
sufficient separation height or by placing barriers. The minimum separation height takes into account the
surface upon which persons other than operator, performers or employees are permitted to stand.
On image 1-2 a typical setup is displayed. It must be verified if these minimum requirements are met. If
required a restricted zone (RZ) in the theater must be established. This can be done by using physical barrier,
like a red rope as illustrated in image 1-2.
The restricted area sticker can be replaced by a sticker with only the symbol.

USA market
For LIPs (Laser Illuminated Projectors) installed in the USA market other restriction zone conditions apply.
LIPs for installation in restrained environment (cinema theaters) shall be installed at height vertically above the
floor such that the bottom plane of the hazard distance zone shall be no lower than 2.5 meters above the floor.
Horizontal clearance to the hazard distance zone shall be not less than 1 meter.
LIPs for installations in unrestrained environment (large venues,..) shall be installed at a height vertically
above the floor such that the bottom plane of the Hazard distance Zone shall be no lower than 3 meters above
the floor. Horizontal clearance to the hazard distance zone shall be not less than 2.5 meters. Any human
access horizontally to the Hazard Zone, if applicable, shall be restricted by barriers. If human access is
possible in an unsupervised environment, the horizontal or vertical clearances shall be increased to prevent
exposure to the hazard distance zone.
In addition for temporary installations (e. g.: rental and staging, lease, events …) the following requirements
apply:
•This product can only be installed by Barco or sold or leased only to valid laser light show variance holders.
In other words our installers are required to have an approved laser light show variance. Such installers
may currently hold a valid variance for production of Class IIIb and IV laser light shows and/or for
incorporation of the RG3 LIPs into their shows. Dealers and distributors are also required to obtain a valid
laser light show variance.
•This product shall be located in such a way that all propagating beam paths within the Restriction Zone,
and the audience can be directly observed at all times.
•Effects other than front or rear screen projections shall not be performed.
•Communication shall be maintained with other personnel assisting in surveillance of the LIP projection.
•In the event of any unsafe condition, immediately terminates (or designate the termination) of LIP
projection light.

disconnect the power cord at the projector side. In case the power input at the projector side is not accessible
(e. g. truss mount), the socket outlet supplying the projector shall be installed nearby the projector and be
easily accessible, or a readily accessible general disconnect device shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
Laser light shows can be requested via the FDA online eSubmitter portal or via FDA Form FDA Form 3147
referencing to Barco’s variance approval 2016-V-0144.
The installation checklist for laser illuminated RG3 projectors must be fully completed after the installation and
sent to pvg@barco.com. This checklist can be downloaded from the Barco website. Only when the installer is
a valid laser light show variance holder the checklist should not be sent to Barco.
6.4 Hazard Distance for fully closed projection
system
HD
Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the
energy per surface unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the
skin. The light beam is considered (to be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the
light source is less than the HD.
Restriction Zone RZ Based on the HD
The projector is also suitable for rear projection applications; projecting a beam onto a defuse coated
projection screen. As displayed in image 1-3 two areas should be considered: the restricted enclosed
projection area (RA) and the observation area (TH).

exposure.
•HDreflection : the distance that has to be kept restrictive related to the reflected light from the rear
projection screen.

•HDdiffuse : the relevant distance to be considered while observing the defuse surface of the rear projection
screen.
As described in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 6 , it is mandatory to create a
restricted zone within the beam areas closer than any NOHD. In the enclosed projection area the combination
of two restricted zones are relevant: The restricted zone of the projected beam toward the screen; taking into
account 1 meter Separation Width (SW) from the beam onward. Combined with the restricted zone related to
the rear reflection from the screen (HDreflection); also taking into account a 1 meter lateral separation.
The HDreflection distance equals 25% of the difference between the determined HD distance and the
projection distance to the rear projection screen. To determine the HD distance for the used lens and projector
model see graphs in chapter "HD in function of the lens Throw Ratio (TR)", page 8 .
HDreflection = 25% (HD – PD)
The light emitted from the screen within the observation shall never exceed the RG2 exposure limit,
determined at 10 cm. The HDdiffuse can be neglected if the measured light at the screen surface is below
5000 cd/m² or 15000 LUX.
