time, please read the safety instructions thoroughly.

1.1 SAFETY

This user guide contains important information about safety precautions and the set-up and
use of the projector. Please read the manual carefully before you operate the projector.

This device complies with relevant safety regulations for data processing equipment for use
in an office environment. Before using the projector for the first time, please read the safety
instructions thoroughly.

1.2 WARNING

Use only the cables and cords supplied with the projector or original replacement cables. Us­ing other cables or cords may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.

Always use 3-prong / grounded power cord to ensure proper grounding of the unit. Never
use 2-prong power cords, as this is dangerous and could lead to electrical shock.

Never open the unit. The projector contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all repairs to
qualified personnel only. Make sure that no objects enter into the vents and openings of the
set.

Do not spill any liquids on the projector or into the vents or openings of the unit.

Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed,
it may melt due to the high energy light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may
permanently damage the surface of the projection lens.

Do not look into the projection lens when the projector is switched on. The strong light may
permanently damage sight. Do not look into the laser beam when activated on the remote
control. Laser light may permanently damage sight.

Do not point laser beam on people.

Only place the projector on a stable surface, or mount it securely using an approved ceiling­mount.

Do not drop the projector.

Always operate the projector according to the rotation guidelines found on the web. Operat­ing the unit in other positions may reduce lamp life significantly, and may lead to overheating,
resulting in malfunctioning.

Always allow ample airflow through the projector. Never block any of the air vents. Never
cover the unit in any way while running. Allow for sufficient distance to walls and ceilings to
avoid overheating.

Minimum safety distance to any side of the unit is 50 cm / 20” in any direction.

CAUTION! Connecting sources to a powered projector may result in product failure. It is
recommended that the power cable connector (projector-end) or the mains power socket
are accessible whilst the product is in use to enable mains power to be disconnected or
switched off when connecting source devices. This should be considered during product
installation.

Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications, as this may
result in overheating and malfunctioning.

Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical
specification. Connecting to unspecified signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction
and permanent damage of the unit.

Allow lamp to cool down before changing. One lamp may be changed while the other lamp
is operating (hot-swap).

INFORMATION AND WARNING ABOUT POTENTIAL HEALTH ISSUES RELATED TO
MERCURY VAPOR. This section only applies to projectors with UHP lamps.

This projector uses a very powerful UHP™ lamp for illumination to produce an extremely
bright image.

This technology is similar to other high-pressure discharge lamps that are extensively used in
cars, street lights and other lighting appliances today. These lamps, like fluorescent lighting,
contain small amounts of mercury. The amount of mercury present in a lamp is far below the
limits of danger set by the authorities. It is very important that lamps containing mercury are
treated properly to minimize potential health hazards.

The UHP™ lamp, like any other high brightness projector lamp, is under high-pressure when
operating. While the lamp and the projector are carefully designed to minimize the prob­ability of lamp rupture, the lamp may break while operating and small amounts of mercury
vapor may be emitted from the projector. The probability of rupture increases when the lamp
reaches its nominal life. It is therefore highly recommended that the lamp is replaced when
the rated lifetime is reached.

As a general precaution, secure good ventilation in the room when operating the projector. If
lamp rupture occurs, evacuate the room and secure good ventilation. Children and pregnant
women in particular should leave the room.

When replacing a worn lamp, dispose of the used lamp carefully by proper recycling.

Mercury is a naturally occurring, stable metallic element that may pose a safety risk to people
under certain conditions. According to the Public Health Statement for Mercury published by
the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (“ATSDR”, part of the United States
Public Health Service), the brain, central nervous system and kidneys are sensitive to the
effects of mercury, and permanent damage can occur at sufficiently high levels of exposure.
Acute exposure to high concentrations of mercury vapor can cause conditions such as
lung and airway irritation, tightness in the chest, a burning sensation in the lungs, coughing,
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Children and fetuses are particularly sensitive to the harmful
effects of metallic mercury to the nervous system.

Seek medical attention if any of the above symptoms are experienced or if other unusual
conditions are experienced following lamp rupture.

The remote control can be operated either in ‘broadcast mode’, or ‘individual mode’. When
several projectors are in use in an installation, individual control may be convenient. Individual
control is available either by wired remote control, using the data-jack, or by using an individ­ual number code. For individual control, first set the individual RC ID code using the projector
menu system, see the SETTINGS sub menu. Then, to select a specific projector to control,
first press the ‘*’ button in the lower keypad area, then the code as set in the target projector.
A code can be in the range ‘0’..’99’. ‘0’ is reserved for broadcast. To select another target,
repeat the process by pressing ‘*’ and a new code. To exit individual control, press ‘*’’*’ twice
or press ‘*’ and ‘0’.

1.2 Protecting the projector with a pin code

The projector may be controlled by a PIN (Personal Identity Number) code. The PIN code is 4
digits, and if the PIN code is activated, you must enter the correct code to unlock the projec­tor. Factory set PIN (1234).

To activate, deactivate or change the PIN code, see the SETTINGS > PIN CODE sub menu.

NOTE! If an incorrect PIN code is entered, you may try again two times.
If you fail three times in a row, a PUK (unlock) code is needed. The PUK code is supplied

Figure 1-1. Dual input mode

english

An example of this is feeding a WQXGA (2560x1600) source with 1280x1600 resolutions on
each the DVI interfaces.

When enabling this mode, the EDID data on each of the DVI connectors will automatically be
changed from WQXGA (2560x1600) to 1280x1600.

NOTE! For the image to be displayed in this mode, the resolution must be exactly the
same on both connectors.

NOTE! In this mode the two connected sources must have exactly the same timing. A
drift in timing between the inputs will result in a visible split in the center of image.

NOTE! Some graphic cards have problems with detecting the change from single head
to dual head mode. If problems occur, disconnect both signal cables before enabling or
disabling the dual mode in the menu.

1.4 Setting custom color space and digital level

The projector will automatically try to set the correct color space and digital drive level based
on information from the source.

To manually override the automatically detected color space and digital level go to menu
entry PICTURE -> ADVANCED. Set the “digital color space and level” to manual and select
your color space and digital drive level.

1.5 Disabling IR receivers

The projector has 3 IR receivers as shown in chapter 4.1 Overview.

These receivers can be individually disabled if necessary. Go to menu entry INSTALLATION >
IR FRONT / IR REAR LEFT / IR REAR RIGHT to disable the receivers.

1.6 Controlling screens with triggers

1.7 Setting aspect trigger behavior

1.8 Automatic power on/off

The projector has to programmable triggers with 3.5 mm2 mini-jack connectors. These can
be used to enable or disable screens, curtains or other peripheral equipment.

To change trigger settings, go to menu entry INSTALLATION > TRIGGER

By default:

• Trigger 1 is set to control a screen depending on whether projector is powered on or not.

• Trigger 2 is set to control a screen depending on the aspect ratio of currently active

source.

Both triggers can be manually overridden both in the menu system and by using the com­mand and control protocol through RS-232 or LAN.

To customize the aspect trigger functionality, go to menu entry INSTALLATION > TRIGGER >
ASPECT TRIGGER BEHAVIOR. In this sub-menu it is selectable for which input aspect ratios
the trigger will be enabled.

The projector can be automatically power on or off by using the internal timer function or
DPMS.

1.8.1 Using the timer

The projector features a real-time clock that enables timing control. This means that the
projector can be programmed to switch on and off at certain pre-set times during a weekly
cycle.

To allow for a flexible schedule, 10 ‘programs’ are available. With each program, you can
define the switch on or switch off time for a single day (Monday to Sunday), all work days
(Monday through Friday), or week-end (Saturday and Sunday). One, several or all programs
can be active at the same time as desired. In this way, a flexible scheme can be established.
Observe the 24 hour time format. For more information, see the SETTINGS > TIMER menu.

The following example illustrates a case where the projector turns on at 08:00 in the morning
(8 am) and switches off at 20:00 (8 pm) on weekdays (Monday through Friday). Weekends
(Saturdays and Sundays), it turns on at 10:00 (10 am) and off at 18:00 (6 pm). VGA is used
as the source. For this, four programs are needed, 2 for on and two for off.

1.8.2 Using DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling)

The projector is enabled for DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling). When enabled,
the projector will automatically switch to standby mode after a specified time if there is no
valid source present at its inputs. When a valid source is reconnected, the projector will start
up again.

To enable or disable DPMS, go to menu entry SETTINGS > DPMS. The desired DPMS time­out is set in the DPMS > DPMS TIMEOUT menu entry.

DPMS is disabled by default.

NOTE! Pressing the “LIGHT” button on the keypad enables the LED indicators even if the
LED INDICATORS MUTE function is enabled.

If the LED indicators are enabled, the timeout period can be set in the menu under SET­TINGS > BACKLIGHT TIMEOUT.

1.10 Setting the background color

The background color displayed when the projector is searching for a source can be set to
a set of predefined colors. Go to menu entry SETTINGS > BACKGROUND to set the desired
color. Default is black.

1.11 Setting OSD menu timeout

If the OSD menu is open and not used for a defined period of time, it will automatically be
disabled. The default time is 30 seconds. This timeout interval can be controlled from 5 sec­onds to 60 seconds. The timeout can also be set to “never” for the OSD menu to never time
out. Go to menu entry SETTINGS > MENU TIMEOUT to change this setting.

english

1.12 Selecting the startup logo

When the projector is starting up, a logo is displayed in the entire image. The logo can also
be set to “black” if it is desirable to disable the manufacturers default logo. Go to menu entry
SETTINGS > SPLASH to change this setting.

1 Optimising the picture

The projector has power features for picture optimization. This chapter describes details in
using these features. All color calibration is done using projectiondesign’s proprietary Real­Color™ solution.

1.1 Calibration data

All projectiondesign projectors are measured and calibrated with high precision equipment at
the factory for the best out-of-box experience. Over the lifetime of the lamps the characteris­tics of the projector might change slightly. The same applies when replacing lamps.

1.1.1 Updating RealColor™ calibration data

For accurate results with the RealColor™ system, accurate measurement data is required.

RealColor™ calibration data can be found under the menu entry PICTURE > CALIBRATION >
REALCOLOR CALIBRATION > MEASURED VALUES

X, Y and relative luminance values for red, green, blue, white and BrilliantColor™ 1 is entered
in this menu. The BrilliantColor™ should all be set to 0.000 for the VizSim (RGBRGB) color
wheel. All values can also be updated using the communications protocol over RS-232 or
LAN.

IMPORTANT! Before setting these values, it is important to select the desired Brilliant­Color™ setting. Go to menu entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR > BRILLIANTCOLOR to
select the desired BrilliantColor™ look.

Measurements must be done on the built in test patterns. This is in particularly important for
the BrilliantColor™ 1 test pattern since it is impossible to generate this pattern correctly using
a computer source. In the user menu these patterns can be accessed through PICTURE >
CALIBRATION > REALCOLOR CALIBRATION > CALIBRATION TESTIMAGE. Use the arrow
keys to cycle through the images.

NOTE! Performing a factory reset of the projector will restore the measured values to the
values measured in the factory.

NOTE! When measuring data, a high quality measurement instrument is highly recom­mended for accurate results. Spectrometers (like PhotoResearch PR-655) are preferred.

TIP! For an easier calibration procedure, automated calibration can be achieved using
projectiondesign’s software package ProNet. A license for the calibration software pack­age of ProNet must be purchased separately.

1.2.3 RealColor™ operating modes

english

Before any color correction is applied to the image, the feature must be enabled. Go to menu
entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR > COLOR CORRECTION to enable RealColor™.

RealColor™ can operate in 3 modes:

• Colortemperature/whitepointcorrectiononly.

• Red,Green,Blue,Whitecorrection.InthismodeoptimalcolorcoordinatesforCyan,

Magenta and Yellow will be computed automatically.

• Red,Green,Blue,Cyan,Magenta,Yellow,White.Inthismodecolorpointsandintensity

for each color can be manipulated separately.

To change the RealColor™ mode, please go the menu entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR >
DESIRED VALUES > DESIRED COORDS MODE.

1.2.4 Setting a white point or color temperature

After enabling RealColor™, set the color temperature in the menu entry PICTURE > REAL­COLOR > COLOR TEMPERATURE. Values between 3200K and 9300K can be selected.
These color temperatures are tracking the “black body curve”- the black curved line in the
center of CIE Chart in Figure 8-7. The default is the D65 illuminant at 6500K.

Figure 1-7. CIE Chart with the black body

The white point can also be set to a custom value defined by an x, y coordinate not linked to
the black body. Go to menu entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR > X-COORDINATE and PIC-

TURE > REALCOLOR > Y-COORDINATE to change the white point.

Optimising the picture

40WQXGA User’s Guide –

1.2.5 Defining the system color gamut

All colors visible to the eye are defined by CIE Chart in Figure 8-7. The boundary of the colors
the projector can display is called the system color gamut. The white triangle in Figure 8-7 is
an example of a system color gamut. By default the projector has the widest possible system
gamut, which is limited by the color wheel selected for the system. The VizSim color wheel
has the widest color gamut and the High Brightness color wheel has the smallest.

IMPORTANT! The system color gamut cannot be expanded outside color gamut
defined by the color wheel.

It may be desirable to change the system color gamut of the projector to:

- Color match multiple projectors.

- Meet defined color standards, like REC 709.

- Create a special “look” to the image.

Before the system color gamut can be change the desired RealColor™ mode has to be
defined. To change the RealColor™ mode, please go the menu entry PICTURE > REAL­COLOR > DESIRED VALUES > DESIRED COORDS MODE.

RealColor™ has to be enabled for the desired system gamut to be applied. Go to menu entry
PICTURE > REALCOLOR > COLOR CORRECTION to enable RealColor™.

english

After RealColor™ is enabled and the desired color correction mode is selected, please go
the menu entry PICTURE > REALCOLOR > DESIRED VALUES to change the color points to
the your desired system color gamut.

TIP! For graphical visualization of the system color gamut and easy color management for
a single or multiple projectors, the ProNet software package could be used. A license for
the calibration software package of ProNet must be purchased separately.
