3.1General
WARNING: Before installing the projector, read first the safety instructions.
3. Installation Guidelines
Ambient Temperature Conditions.
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 : 10 °C or 50 °F
The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature falls outside this range (10°C- 40°C or 50°F-104°F).
Storage temperature: -35°C to +65°C (-31°F to 149°F)
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 ceil
excessive.
ing; check that temperature near the installation site is not
Environment condition check
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.
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 optoelectronics
components. Failure to take suitable precautio
inants 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 suc

particles in the environment of the projector. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to
wantful neglect, abandon or improper use.
Special Care for Laser Beams
Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as performant laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting
of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital MicroMirror Devices™ in which case there is a loss of warranty
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.
What image size? How big should the image be?
The projector is designed for projecting an image size : min 1.00m (3.3ft) to max 15 m (49.2ft

What can be done?
When the optional network connection is installed, the projector can be connected to a LAN (local area network) (Ethernet). Once
installed and connected to the LAN, users are capable of accessing the projector from any location, inside or outside their company
network from a standard web browser. The projector acts as web server and generates a web site with all functions of the projector
listed. Via an internet explorer 4.0 or higher, or a Netscape communicator, the user can insert the correct IP-address of the projector
and access the webpages. Once the web site is accessed, it is possible to check and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote
diagnostics, control and monitoring of the projector can then become a daily and very simple operation. The network connectivity
permits to detect potential errors and consequently improve the time to servicing.

5.6.1Controlling the projector
Projector address
Address installed in the projector to be individually controlled.
Common address
Default address. Projector will always execute the command coming from a RCU programmed with that common
address.
Why a projector address ?
As more than one projector can be installed in a room, the separate projector should be separately addressable with an RCU or
computer. There for each proj
ector has its own address.
Set up an individual Project
or Address.
The set up of a projector address can be done via the software. See ’Change projector address’ in chapter ’Service mode’.

•computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.
Common Address
Every projector has a common address ’0’ or ’1’. The choice between ’0’ and ’1’ can be selected in the Service mode.
5.6.2Displaying and Programming addresses
Displaying the Projector Address on the Screen.
1. Press Address key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.
The projector’s address will be displayed in a ’Text box’
To continue using the RCU with that specific address, it is necessary to enter the same address with the
digit buttons (address between 0 and 9) within 5 seconds after pushing the address key. For example : if the
Address key displays projector address 003, then press "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU’s address
to match the projector’s address. Do not press 003 digits. This will address the remote control to ’0’ and
control all projectors in the room. If the address is not entered within 5 seconds, the RCU returns to its def
address (zero address) and control all projectors in the room.

7.2.2Possible file manipulations
Connecting a new source.
Before using a new source, a correct file has to be installed. The projector’s memory contains a list of files corresponding to the most
used sources. When the new source corresponds with one of these files, the file can be loaded and saved for future use. When
there is a little dif
ference, the file can also be loaded and then edited until the source specs are reached.
file loading can be d
one automatically (see "File Options", page 54). Files with a ~ in front of the file name are
temporary files. These files will be deleted when switching to another source.

7.2.5.3 Correct value
What is already available during start up?
During the installation of a file with LOAD, the horizontal period, the total number of vertical lines and the interlaced mode are
automatically measured and filled in in the menu table. These values will be available when starting up the EDIT procedure of an
active file.
CAUTION: Do not adjust these settings on an active file, they are used to identify the input source file.
How to find the correct values for the item in the Edit file menu?
Horizontal Total Pixels
If the value for "Horizontal Total Pixels" is wrong, sampling mistakes (small vertical bars in the
projected image) will be seen in the image.
Select "Total" and adjust the pixel quantity. Adjust for zero bars.
hint: if the number of bars increase, adjust in the other direction.

The way of updating the image information. Not available for PAL-NTSC-SECAM sources. This
option will be displayed in gray.
•For sources with a vertical frequency up to 60 Hz : the vertical refresh rate is the same as the
vertical frequency of the incoming source. This is a necessity to project moving images without
’motion artifacts’. For stationary images with a vertical frequency up to 60 Hz it is still possible
to use asynchronous refresh. When loading Pal, Secam, NTSC-files the synchronous mode is
default, for all other sources below 60 Hz asynchronous mode is default.
•For sources with a vertical frequency higher that 60 Hz : the vertical refresh is different than the
vertical frequency of the incoming source. Synchronous refresh cannot be used.

When enabled, the hardware looks for tell-tale signs of 3:2 or 2:2 pull-down sequences. These are the
result of converting cinema material recorded at 24 frames-per-second to the television frequencies of
60 or 50 interlaced fields per second respectively. When FILM conversion is detected, the original
24 frames-per-second are restored. This avoids deinterlacing artefacts, and results in a perfect
artefact-free display. Note that in some cases (video clips, scrolling newstickers,...) FILM and VIDEO
material are mixed on one screen. This may confuse the detector and cause it to go into FILM
restoration mode. This will cause "jaggies" or motion artefacts. In such cases, disabling FILM mode
processing is the best cure.
Only active when film mode detection is in the on position. Use the ENTER key to toggle between
[on] or [off].
FILM mode processing normally processes the entire display, but this may cause problems on sources
where video and FILM content are mixed. One very common example is scrolling banners at the
bottom of the screen (e.g. financial news). For those cases, the "banner protect" feature will force the
bottom quarter of the screen to be always processed in VIDEO mode, regardless of the rest of the
screen, which may be either video or FILM mode.
3:2 pull-down
Method used to map the 24 fps of film onto the 30 fps (60 fields) or 25 fps (50 fields), so that one film frame occupies
three video fields, the next two, etc. It means the two fields of every other video frame come from different film frames
making operations such as rotoscoping impossible, and requiring care in editing. Some sophisticated equipment can
unravel the 3:2 sequence to allow frame-by-frame treatment and subsequently re-compose 3:2. The 3:2 sequence
repeats every five video frames and four film frames, the latter identified as A-D. Only film frame A is fully on a video
frame and so exists at one time code only, making it the editable point of the video sequence.

Artefacts
Undesirable elements or defects in a video picture. These may occur naturally in the video process and must be
eliminated in order to achieve a high-quality picture. Most common in analog are cross color and cross luminance.

Why ScenergiX ?
When working in a multichannel setup the BARCO SLM R8 Executive and its Soft Edge possibilities enable an image blending that
gives the appearance of a single view, thus achieving realistic immersion for the majority of wide screen applications.
Image 7-8
Why Soft Edge?
What is the Basic Principal of ScenergiX ?
The principle of edge blending is archived by linear modulation of the light output in the overlap zone so that the light output in that
zone equals the light output of the rest of the image.
t, be sure that the following adjustments are done perfectly on all projectors:
