Introduction

How the projector works

Boxer 2K accepts a variety of input signals for projection on front or rear projection screens,
The typical in commercial or other large screen applications.
High-brightness light is generated by mercury vapor lamps, then modulated by three Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) panels responding to incoming data streams of digitized red, green and blue color information. As these digital streams flow from the source, light from the responding “on” pixels of each panel is reflected, converged and then projected to the screen through one or more projection lenses, where all pixel reflections are superimposed in sharp full-color images.

List of components

Verify all components were received with the projector.
Power cord for full brightness, multi-lamp operation
Power cord for limited power, single lamp operation
IR remote keypad

Site requirements

To safely install and operate the projector, the installation location must have restricted access for authorized personnel only and meet these minimum requirements.

Physical operating environment

Provides specifications for the operating environment.
Ambient temperature (operating) 5 to 40°C (41 to 104°F) up to 1500 ft
Humidity (non-condensing) 10 to 80%
Operating altitude: 10,000 ft maximum at 5 to 25 degrees Celsius ambient

Power connection

The projector uses an innovative dual AC inlet power system that offers two power modes.
To operate at full brightness (six lamps), power the projector using AC Input 1 if the appropriate high power source is available. To operate in limited power mode (single lamp), power the projector using standard lower power sources using AC Input 2. A different power cord is provided for each power source. A 30A rated wall breaker is required at the installation when using Input 1. A 15A rated wall breaker is required at the installation when using Input 2.

Adjusting primary colors

Calibrate the accuracy of primary colors, which can change because of lighting and environmental factors.
All primary colors in the projector are precisely set to pre-established values to ensure overall color performance is optimized and is as accurate as possible. Lighting and other environmental factors may slightly change how these colors appear on your screen. While the change is negligible in most cases, you may prefer to recover the originally intended color performance before trying to match colors from several projectors.
To achieve consistency use a color meter to measure the native primary colors—red, green, blue, and white—as they appear on the screen. On the basis of these new values, which are stored in memory, each projector automatically calculates any necessary corrections to reproduce the original factory colors under the current environmental conditions. This essentially calibrates a projector to its surroundings, compensating for factors such as screen type, lamp and/or ambient lighting, and improves color accuracy and consistency in a group of projectors. It ensures a good starting point for further customizing and matching; however, is not critical for all installations.

Configuring the GPIO

The Generic Purpose Input Output (GPIO) provides a flexible method of interfacing with external devices to the projector.
The GPIO is configured to automate real time events. Each of the seven pins is defined as either an input or output depending on the required outcome. The remaining two pins are reserved for ground and power.
Configure the pin as an input if you want the projector to respond to something the device does and as an output if you want the external device to respond to an action taken by the projector. For example, configure the pin as an output if you want the lighting in a room to automatically dim when the projector is turned on.
This feature is only available on the web interface.
1. From the home page of the web interface, select MENU > Macros and GPIO.
2.
Select GPIO Configuration.
3. In the GPIO Configuration dialog under Update the New Configuration, toggle the pins you want active for the input and output.
A blue pin indicates input and a green pin indicates output.
4. Select Apply.

GPIO connector

The GPIO connector located on the input panel provides a flexible method of interfacing with the projector. Seven GPIO pins are available on the nine pin D-Sub GPIO connector. Two other pins are reserved for ground and power.
