Read all safety and warning guidelines before installing or operating the projector.
This projector must be operated in an environment that meets the operating range specification. Use only the attachments and/or accessories recommended by Christie. Use of others may result in the risk of fire, shock, or personal injury.
Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in death or serious injury.
• This product must be operated in an environment that meets the operating range as specified in this manual.
•Do not look directly into the lens or at the lamp. The extremely high brightness can cause permanent eye damage.
•EXTREME BRIGHTNESS! When accessing a restricted access location for product service or maintenance, avoid exposure to the product beam path by turning the product power off and disconnecting the product from AC power, or by shuttering the lamp to avoid emissions from the front aperture.
•Keep fingers and other body parts away from the moving parts in the product. Tie back long hair, and remove jewelry and loose clothing before manually adjusting the product.
•SHOCK HAZARD! Power supply uses double pole/neutral fusing. Disconnect all power sources before opening the product.
•FIRE HAZARD! Do not exceed 30 A for the breaker to power Input 1 on the projector.
•Install the product near an easily accessible AC receptacle.
•FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD! Use only the attachments, accessories, tools, and replacement parts specified by Christie.
Caution! If not avoided, the following could result in minor or moderate injury.
• TRIP OR FIRE HAZARD! Position all cables where they cannot contact hot surfaces, be pulled, be tripped over, or damaged by persons walking on or objects rolling over the cables.
•The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends occupational UV exposure for an 8-hour day to be less than 0.1 microwatts per square centimeters of effective UV radiation. A workplace evaluation is advised to assure employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding the government guidelines for your area. Be aware that some medications are known to increase sensitivity to UV radiation.

Introduction
This projector has been classified as Risk Group 3 as per the IEC62471 standard due to possible hazardous optical and thermal radiation being emitted.
Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in serious injury.
• PERMANENT/TEMPORARY BLINDNESS HAZARD! No direct exposure to the beam must be permitted.
•PERMANENT/TEMPORARY BLINDNESS HAZARD! Operators must control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at the height (greater than or equal to 3.0 m from the floor to the beam) that prevents exposure of spectators' eyes within the hazard distance.
•EXTREME BRIGHTNESS! Do not place reflective objects in the product light path.
The following diagram and table show the zones for optical and thermal radiation hazard distances:
B
B
A
•Zone A—The light intensity may cause eye damage after a momentary or brief exposure (before a person can avert his or her eye away from the light source). The light may cause skin burns to occur.
•Zone B—The light intensity does not pose a hazard due to the eye’s aversion response to bright light. However, staring directly into the light may still be a hazard.

Understand the important features of the projector.
•Built in warp and blend of projected images
•Near field communication
•Multi-lamp module with no lamp alignment required
•Improved lens mount with bayonet style insertion
•Single phase 200-240 V
•Side access to optical adjustments
•4K resolution for flexibility and future proofing
•Omnidirectional operation
•TruLife electronics
•New LCD display to provide information at-a-glance
The Boxer 4K accepts a variety of input signals for projection on front or rear projection screens, 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.
Verify all components were received with the projector.
•Power cord for full brightness, six lamp operation
•Power cord for limited power, single lamp operation
•IR remote keypad

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