Notice on Safety

This equipment is built in accordance with the requirements of the
international safety standards EN60950, UL 1950 and CSA C22.2
No.950, which are the safety standards of information technology
equipment including electrical business equipment.

These safety standards impose important requirements on the use
of safety critical components, materials and isolation, in order to
protect the user or operator against risk of electric shock and energy
hazard, and having access to live parts.
Safety standards also impose limits to the internal and external
temperature rises, radiation levels, mechanical stability and strength,
enclosure construction and protection against the risk of fire.

Simulated single fault condition testing ensures the safety of the
equipment to the user even when the equipment's normal operation
fails.

3. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this
product where persons will walk on the cord.

To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

4. If an extension cord is used with this product, make sure that the
total of the ampere ratings on the products plugged into the extension
cord does not exceed the extension cord ampere rating. Also make
sure that the total of all products plugged into the wall outlet does not
exceed 15 amperes.

5. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet
slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts
that could result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.

Never spill liquid of any kind on the product. Should any liquid or solid
object fall into the cabinet, unplug the set and have it checked by
qualified service personnel before resuming operations.

6. Lightning - For added protection for this video product during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage
to the projector due to lightning and AC power-line surges.

On installation

1. Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
The product may fall, causing serious damage to it.

2. Do not use this equipment near water.

3. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom 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 projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure
unless proper ventilation is provided.

4. Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement under

in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For maximum
protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.

On illumination

In order to obtain the best quality for the projected image, it is essential
that the ambient light which is allowed to fall on the screen be kept
to an absolute minimum.

When installing the projector and screen, care must be taken to avoid
exposure to ambient light directly on the screen. Avoid adverse
illumination on the screen from direct sunlight or fluorescent lighting
fixtures.

Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage potentials
and risk of electric shock!

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualified service personnel under the following condi­tions:

a. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

b. If liquid has been spilled into the equipment.

c.If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

d. If the product does not operate normally when the operating

1-2 5975639 BARCOVISION 708 161198

The use of controlled ambient lighting, such as incandescent spot light
or a dimmer, is recommended for proper room illumination. Where
possible, care should also be taken to ensure that the floors and walls
of the room in which the projector is to be installed are non-reflecting,
dark surfaces. Brighter surfaces will tend to reflect and diffuse the
ambient light and hence reduce the contrast of the projected image
on the screen.

MAGIK Interface

Multifuctional Analog Graphics Interface Kit.
BARCO's MAGIK interface allows the user to connect a presentation
device such as a projector or a professional monitor to any computer
with analog video signal with or without maintaining the connection
with its own display. The MAGIK interface buffers and amplifies any
RGB analog signal with TTL or analog sync without signal loss or
image degradation.
The MAGIK can be delivered together with connection cables for PC,
MAC, SUN or workstation in a nice handbag case.

Order numbers MAGIK with cables and case :

Orbiting Kit

Static pictures are very often shown on large screen projectors,
especially in process control and presentation applications. Due to
the fact that the same picture information is shown for a long period
in the same place, picture tubes can be damaged by 'local burn-in'.
To reduce this problem, a special Orbiting circuit is available which
moves the picture very slowly around a predefined screen area. The
cycle time is very long to make the movement of the projected image
imperceptible.
The use of the orbiting kit is described in appendix A in the installation
manual.
Order number : R9827780

Line Doubler Kit

BARCO's line doubler kit consists of a video decoder with a three­line adaptive Comb filter, an enhancement circuit and the line doubler
itself.

- The three-line adaptive Comb filter improves color transitions and
reduces noise in the video signal.

- The enhancement circuit integrated in the decoder provides sharper
images with clearer outlines.

- The line doubler circuit reduces visible line structure by doubling the
number of lines of the video image.

These three circuits work in unison to produce a smoother yet
sharper image which is significantly more appealing when watching
video images.
Order number : R9828161

Ceiling mount CM50

This suspension system enables to mount any projector from the

ADJUSTMENT BLOCKS AND SOURCE
NUMBERS 90 - 99

Adjustment Blocks (memory blocks)

As the projector is digitally controlled, all geometry and convergence adjustments are stored in the projectors memory as numeric values.
These numeric values are used to control digital potentiometers which in turn, control the projector. Each source connected to the
projector has a unique set of adjustment data which is automatically downloaded into the projectors digital potentiometers once the
source has been selected. This set of adjustment data is referred to as an adjustment block.

An adjustment table is automatically created for a source when the source is first connected to the projector and the Adjustment mode
is entered. If other sources have already been connected to the projector and geometry and convergence adjustments have been
performed on these sources, the projector will use Linear Digital Interpolation to create a new block for the new source. This block
will provide an initial set of adjustments for the new source that have been calculated by the projector from previous experience.

The projectors memory has the capacity to store 32 adjustment blocks. The adjustment block consists of two parts, the block header
and the data representing the values for all adjustments (eg. Convergence and Geometry) in the projector for the source the block
corresponds to. The block header contains the basic characteristics of the source and the projector configuration used to display
the source.

Block Number 01
Source Number 01
Horizontal Frequency 15.6 kHz
Vertical Frequency 50 Hz
Input Type video
Scan Switch Configuration Front/Ceiling

The data representing the various adjustments for the source follows the block header.

Source numbers 90 - 99

Source numbers 90 - 99 do not correspond to physical inputs
to the projector or RCVDS. They are used to assign an
additional adjustment block to a source. This additional adjust­ment block may contain different geometry and convergence
settings, sync fast/slow positions and enhanced blue on/off
settings. The relationship between source numbers 0 - 9 and
90 - 99 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 and 91 - 95 (stand­alone projector) is shown in the diagram below.

The alternate adjustment block for sources 0 - 9 (projector with
RCVDS) or 1 - 5 (stand-alone projector) is activated by selecting the
corresponding source number 0 - 9 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5
(stand-alone projector). Once this source number is selected, the
alternate block of adjustment data is in use and may be modified via
the adjust mode of the projector. The alternate adjustment block is
automatically stored.

source input 2

source input 9

2. Select the corresponding source number between 90 and 99. The
adjustment block for the source number between 0 and 9 is copied
to the corresponding source number between 90 and 99.

3. Enter the adjust mode and make any desired changes (geometry,
convergence, sync fast/slow, enhanced blue on/off) to the second
adjustment block.

Follow the steps below to create a second adjustment block for a
source between 0 and 9.

1. Select the source between 0 and 9 that the second adjustment
block is to be created for.
