•

American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends occupational UV exposure for an-8 hour
day to be less than 0,1 micro-watts per square centimetres of effective UV radiation. An evaluation of the workplace is
advised to assure employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding these government guidelines.
The exposer of this UV radiation is allowed for only 1 hour per day for maintenance and service persons.
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.

1.SAFETY

To prevent fire hazard

Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!

•

•

This projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both
normal and safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the
spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion
zone” around all external surfaces of the projector whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The
exclusion zone must be not less than 50 cm (20”) for all DLP projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at
least 5 m. Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable
and combustible materials away from the projector at all times. Mount the projector in a well ventilated area away from
sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In the event of fire, use
sand, CO2 or dry powder fire extinguishers. Never use water on an electrical fire. Always have service performed on this
projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on genuine Barco replacement parts. Never use non Barco
replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of this projector.

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. 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.
Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat.

•

Let the projector cool down completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.

•

Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air or on the lamp house.

•

To prevent projector damage

This projector has been designed for use with a specific lamp (house) type. See installation instructions for its correct type.

•

The air filters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on regular base (a "clean" booth would be monthly-

•

minimum).Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air flow inside the projector, causing overheating. Overheating
may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
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.
In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility

•

(EMC)requirements, it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it

WARNING: Barco provides a guarantee relating to perfect manufacturing as part of the legally

stipulated terms of guarantee. Observing the specification mentioned in this chapter is critical for projector
performance. Neglecting this can result in loss of warranty.

2.General

2.1 Installation requirements

Environment conditions

Table below summarizes the physical environment in which the RLS W12 projector may be safely operated or stored.

Environment Operating Non-Operating
Ambient Temperature

Humidity

Altitude

Let the projector acclimatize after unpacking. Neglecting this may result in a startup failure of the Light
Pro- cessor Unit.

0 °C (32 °F) to 40 °C (104 °F)

up to 90% RH Non-condensed

-60 (-197Ft) to 3000m (9843Ft)

Cooling requirements

The projector is fan cooled and must be installed with sufficient space around the projector head, minimum 30 cm (12 inch)
to ensure sufficient air flow. It should be used in an area where the ambient temperature, as measured at the projector air
inlet , does not exceed +40°C (+104°F).

Clean air environment

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.

-20°C (-4°F) to 60°C (140°F)

up to 90% RH Non-condensed

-60 (-197Ft) to 10000m (32810Ft)

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
optoelectronic components. 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 manufacturer’s 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 manufacturer
reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to knowingly neglect, abandon or improper use.

Mechanical check

This check should confirm that there are no broken knobs or connectors, that the cabinet and panel surfaces are free of dents
and scratches, and that the operating panel is not scratched or cracked. The Barco Sales and Service office should be notified
as soon as possible if this is not the case.

2.4 Projector configurations

The different configurations

Depending on the installation the projector can be mounted in different ways, the different configurations are:

1. Front / Table (F/T)

2. Front / Ceiling (F/C) (upside down)

3. Front / Ceiling (F/C) (table position)

4. Rear / Table (R/T)

5. Rear / Ceiling (R/C) (upside down)

6. Rear / Ceiling (R/C) (table position)

The projector should be installed at right angles (horizontally and vertically) to the screen at a distance PD. Note the distance
(A) between lens center and table surface is slightly variable. This distance (A) is nominal 14 cm in case all feet are turned in
completely and the vertical lens shift is set to zero (0).

On axis / off axis projection

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 On-Axis or Off-Axis configuration. On-Axis configuration means that the projector is positioned
so as to have the centre of the lens coinciding with the centre of the screen. Off-Axis projection is obtained by shifting the
lens up, down, left or right. Several parameters can be calculated determining the position in any installation.

Formula to calculate the distance CD for On-Axis projection: CD = SH/2 + B - A

Shift range

The lens can be shifted with respect to the DMD (P) which result in a shifted image on the screen (Off-Axis). A 100% shift
means that the center point of the projected image is shifted by half the screen size. In other words, the center point of
the projected image falls together with the outline of the image in an On-Axis projection. Due to mechanical and optical
limitations it’s recommended to keep the shift values within the field of view (F) as illustrated below. Within these shift
ranges the projector and lens perform excellently. Configuring the projector outside these shift ranges will result in a slight
decline of image quality.

An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) serial digital interface standard specifying the characteristics of
the commu- nication path between two devices using either D-SUB 9 pins or D-SUB 25 pins connectors.
This standard is used for relatively short-range communications and does not specify balanced control
lines. RS-232 is a serial control standard with a set number of conductors, data rate, word length and type
of connector to be used. The standard specifies com- ponent connection standards with regard to computer
interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version of the RS-232 standard, and is functionally
identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logical ’0’ is > + 3V, Logical ’1’ is < -

Introduction

Remove the cover by sliding it in the
direction indicated by the arrow.



Insert two new AAA
batteries (observe the polarity).

Replace the cover.



Notes for the Remote control unit

Be sure to insert the batteries in the corresponding orientations to match the polarities.

•

Do not mix new batteries with used batteries as it would shorten the life of new batteries or cause leakage.

•

Only used AAA batteries as instructed; do not attempt to insert different types of batteries into the remote control.

•

If the remote is going to be unused for long periods of time, be sure to remove the batteries to prevent leakage, which

•

could damage the remote control.
The liquid contents in the batteries is harmful to the skin; do not touch the leakage with your bare hands directly. When

•

installing fresh batteries, be sure to clean up the leakage thoroughly.
Under most circumstances, you only need to point the remote control towards the screen and the IR signal would be

•

reflected off the screen and picked up by the IR sensor on the projector. But under specific circumstances, the projector
may fail to receive signals from the remote control due to environmental factors. When this happens, orient the remote
control at the projector and try again.
If the range of effective remote control signal reception decreases or if the remote control stops working, replace the

•

batteries.
If the infrared receiver is exposed to fluorescent lamp or strong sunlight, the remote control may not operate normally.

•

Refer to the regulations enforced by your local government on the disposal of used batteries; improper disposal could

•

damage the environment.
Battery type R03. Only Carbon-Zinc or Alkaline-Manganese Dioxide type batteries should be used.

7.Input

7.2 Input Selection

Use this function to specify the source of image connected to the rear of the projector. For instance, if you have connected
your PC as the video input source, you can choose VGA(RGB-HV/SOG) to be the input for image projection. Options of input
available on the projector include: HDMI, HDBaseT, VGA(RGB-HV/SOG), YUV1(RGB-S), YUV2(RGBHV/YUV2), SDI/

HDSDI/3G.

7.3 Input Configuration

Select Input Configuration from the OSD menu to choose the Custom Color Space of the source signal for HDMI, VGA, and
component connections.
The default setting, Auto, functions as follows:

AUTO

The Auto setting determines the correct color space to use.

YUV HD

For component SDTV and EDTV resolutions, YUV STD is used. For other component video resolutions, YUV HD is used.

YUV STD

YUV STD is used for SDTV and EDTV sources, and YUV HD for all other sources.

RGB-PC

uses RGB color space and sets black at 0,0,0 RGB and white at 255,255,255 RGB.

RGB-Video

uses RGB color space and sets black at 16,16,16 RGB and white at 235,235,235.

7.4 Input Locking

What is possible?

The output signal can be locked on an internal sync signal or on the sync signal of one of the input sources. Or it can follow
the input of the Main window or Pip window. When locked to the corresponding input sync, the output will be shown without
movement artifacts. With locking to a specific input, a set of projectors can be kept in sync, no matter what input image is
shown.

Use this function to specify the frequency of the image input signal. You can let the projector determine the optimal
projection frequency or force the projector to project image at the frequency you specify.

Auto

The preset value for this function is Auto. If you specify vertical refresh frequency from the input device to be between
48~62Hz, the projector will automatically lock the frequency of the input signal so that both signal input and output will be
refreshed at the same frequency in order to achieve optimal image output. If the frequency of the input signal falls between

24~31Hz, the projector will automatically double the vertical refresh frequency. If the frequency of the input signal falls
between 31~48Hz or exceeds 62Hz, the projector will automatically set the frequency to 60Hz.

36

48Hz, 50Hz, 60Hz

Choose this option to set image output frequency at 48Hz, 50Hz or 60Hz

If you enable PIP, the projector will automatically synchronize the frequency of the PIP input signal with

8.2 Contrast

The contrast function is used to adjust the contrast between the light and the dark areas of the displayed image. It applies a
gain to the red, green and blue signals.

Contrast adjustment can be done with the Contrast key on the RCU or via the menu structure.

8.Image

The following image illustrates the results of direct contrast adjustment using a random image:

Lowered contrast

8.3 Brightness

The brightness function is used to adjust the black level in the input picture. It adds or subtracts an offset, or bias in to the
red, green and blue signals.

Brightness adjustment can be done with the Brightness key on the RCU or via the menu structure.

It is recommended that you adjust the image to the following status:

The darkest black bar of the image should disappear into the background.

•

The dark gray area should be barely visible.

•

The light gray area should be clearly visible.

•

The white area should appear real and mellow.

•

The image should only display black, gray and white (with no other colors).

•

8.6 Color Temperature

You can choose from 3200K, 5400K, 6500K, 9300K and Native.

Color temperature refers to the change in light color under different energies that is perceived by the naked eye. The change
of color temperature from low to high for visible light goes from orange red  white  blue

The projector’s default color temperature is set at Native. As color temperature rises, the image will appear to be more blue;
as it decreases, the image will appear redder. When you choose “Native”, the projector will disable the white adjustment
function of the input device.

RLS W12 02/12/2014

8.7 Input Balance

Regardless of the change in ambient light, the human eye is equipped with an automatic adjustment mechanism that makes
a white object appears white and black object black. However, since no machine has such an incredible innate feature, you
may need to make certain adjustments to the projector’s settings when the ambient light changes so that the image will
appear closer to the actual colors.

Offset

This refers to the control of color imbalance in the darker areas of the projected image. It is recommended that you use an
external test image with many areas of dark and gray colors (i.e. an image of 30IRE-window). If you notice minimal amount
of red, green or blue in the gray areas, adjust the offset of the corresponding color accordingly. This function will shift the
entire color spectrum for the whole image and change its brightness.

Gain

This refers to the control of color imbalance in the brighter areas of the projected image. It is recommended that you use an
external test image with many areas of white (i.e. an image of 80IRE-window). If you notice minimal amount of red, green or
blue in the gray areas, lower the gain of the corresponding color accordingly. This function is used to increase or decrease the
range of color input for the entire image.
Generally speaking, as gain increases, the contrast of the image will become lower. By increasing the offset, the image
brightness will become lower.

Mode

When the lamp is set to ECO mode, the lamp is running at 360W. Lamp mode selection is available once the ambient
temperature drops below 35 degree Celsius.

ECO

•

When set to Eco mode, the wattage of the lamp will be at 360W. If the surrounding environment is sufficiently dark or if

you do not require intense brightness, you can set the lamp to Eco mode to prolong its usage life.

Normal

•

When set to Normal mode, the wattage of the lamp will be at 465W. If the projection environment requires brighter

image, you can set the lamp to Normal for the highest projection brightness.

Power

•

If the image brightness at Eco mode is too dark for you and the Normal mode gets too bright, you can set it to Power

to specify the power of the lamp yourself to make fine adjustments to the brightness of the projected image. You could

10.4 High Altitude Mode

Use this function to control the projector's cooling fan. You can set it to Off or On. The default setting is Off.

Under normal circumstances, the projector will operate normally with this function set to Off. By default, the projector
will detect the temperature of the surrounding environment to regulate the speed of the cooling fan. When the ambient
temperature rises, fan speed will increase (generates louder noise) to make sure the heat inside the projector gets discharged
and keep the projector working normally.

However, if you were to operate the projector in environment of excessive heat or in areas of high altitude, the projector may
automatically shut down. When this happens, you can enable this function by setting it to On to force the cooling fan to work
at a higher speed to regulate the temperature inside the projector.

High altitude region refers to area with elevation over 1500 meters (4900 feet).

•

When operating in normal altitude environments, the projector will adjust the cooling fan according to the temperature of

•

the working environment. When the temperature rises above 30C, the projector will automatically increase fan speed.
According to the product specification, the maximum operating altitude for the projector is at [e-mail] means that

•

you should not be operating the projector in high altitudes when the working environment is over 25C.
(Due to the air thinning substantially at high altitudes, the result of cooling achieved by the cooling fan is significantly
reduced compared to operation on level ground. With low atmospheric pressure and high operating temperature, the
cooling fan will not be able to disperse the heat adequately)

10.5 Power

This function will not be available if you have set the lamp to Eco or Normal modes, refer to page 49: Mode ,you can only
adjust this setting when the lamp has been set to ”Power”. You can specify the lamp power in the range of 77.3%-100%.
Generally speaking, the lower the power, the dimmer the image will be but the lamp will have longer lifecycle. In contrast,
the higher the power, the brighter the image will be at the cost of shorter lamp lifecycle.

10.6 Lamp1 Status

This function is limited to display purposes to inform the user of Lamp1 status (On or Off).

10.7 Lamp2 Status

This function is limited to display purposes to inform the user of Lamp2 status (On or Off).

11.7 Dynamic Contrast

Use this function to configure the projector to automatically adjust image contrast from the source upon start up or shut
down. When activated, the projector will dynamically adjust the image contrast from the beginning of the projection until the
content has ended.

11.8 Gamma

Different Gamma settings will affect viewers' perception of the image. Generally speaking, for images that are darker, it
is recommended that Gamma be set higher to yield better image quality in darker regions by sacrificing details in brighter
areas. In contrast, when projecting brighter images, you can set the Gamma lower to give up details in the darker areas to
make the brighter areas (i.e. clouds) more visible.

You can choose from six different gamma settings (1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.35, 2.5 and S-Curve) on the projector. The projector's
default gamma value is at 2.2.

Every setting has precisely defined phases to display all primary colors (red, green, blue) and secondary colors (yellow, cyan,
magenta) in millions of pixels. Changing any number in the setting will change the resulting color and rearrange the color
"triangle".

11.9 Internal Patterns

The projector comes with some standard built-in patterns for testers to calibrate the equipment. These include:

0 = Off

1 = Color Bars

2 = Hatch

3 = Burst

4 = Red

5 = Green

6 = Blue

7 = White

8 = Black

9 = TI-Red

10 = TI-Green

11 = TI-Blue

12 = TI-Ramp

11.10 Color Space

Using different color space will create different color presentation in the projected image. You can choose from the following
color gamma:

Native

Choose this to apply the projector's native color gamut

Custom

For 1 DLP projectors the color space adjustment range is optimal between 5000k and 7500K. Adjusting the color space x
and y below or above this range might result in a reduced color tracking performance. In order to increase color tracking
performance below or above that range, use the color temperature preset of 3200K or 9300 K. It can then be fine tuned with
the input balance RGB gain and RGB offset.

Use this function to configure the projector’s IR code receive commands from the remote control. The default value is 1.If you
have other equipment in your home that could pick up the command from the projector’s remote control, it is recommended
that you set the remote control code to 2.

When you are running two projectors via serial connection, you can set the code on one projector as “1” and “2” for the other
projector. By doing so, you will be able to control two projectors with the same remote control.

When you want to switch your remote control from code 1 projector to code 2 projector, press and hold the ENTER and
ADDRESS buttons on the remote control simultaneously (for approximately 5 seconds); the backlight module on the remote
control will blink to confirm the switch.

IP Address

Internet Protocol. The network layer of TCP/IP. Required for communication with the internet.

Subnet mask

A number that is used to identify a subnetwork so that IP addresses can be shared on a local area network.

Gateway

A router that serves as an entry point into and exit point out of a network. For example, a local network (LAN) may need a
gateway to connect it to a wide area network (WAN) or to the Internet.

HDCP

Dynamic host configuration protocol. DHCP is a communications protocol that lets network administrators manage centrally
and automate the assignment of IP addresses in an organization’s network. Using the Internet Protocol, each machine that
can connect to the Internet needs a unique IP address. When an organization sets up its computer users with a connection to
the Internet, an IP address must be assigned to each machine. Without DHCP, the IP address must be entered manually at
each computer and, if computers move to another location in another part of the network, a new IP address must be entered.
DHCP lets a network administrator supervise and distribute IP addresses from a central point and automatically sends a new
IP address when a computer is plugged into a different place in the network.
