Global Usage
EKTAPRO Slide Projectors can be used around the world if you pay attention to
the following:
1. Get informed about the local mains plug at your destination. Different wall plugs need
a different mains cable or an adaptor!
2. Get informed about the local mains voltage. You need to set the voltage selector to the
local mains voltage at your destination. An incorrectly adjusted mains voltage can
damage the projector! For correct voltage setting, see the instruction manual.
3. Different fuse: countries with 100 or 120 V mains need a 4 A slow blow/250 V fuse;
countries with 220, 230 or 240 V mains need a T 2A L/250 V fuse. For fuse exchange,
see the instruction manual.
Use of slide shows:
Please note the following when travelling international with
Ektapro projectors and multivision slide shows:
Due to different voltage frequencies (50 Hz or 60 Hz), some fast
programmed slide sequences may be projected a little bit faster or
slower!

Remote Control
Reduced operation distance with IR remote controls
Solution
We recommend the following two solutions:
1. Use of an extension cable (CAT No. 712 5925, see page 11)
2. A shield for the IR Receiver
As the housing is transmissive for IR radiation we recommend to use a black carton to shield the
top and rearside of the receiver. According to our experience in most cases the problem will be
overcome.
Reduced operation distance
A reason for reduced operation distance could be fluorescent light which is dimmed. The light itself
emits IR radiation that is influencing the IR operation of the projectors in a negative way.

Timer
Note Ektapro 5020 Projector:
In order to avoid "dark pause" it is recommended that the slide tray is filled as
completely as possible (81 or 141 slides):
The built-in timer enables the projector to
automatically transport your slides. Eleven time
settings between 1 and 60 seconds can be made.
1. Due to the tray design, it is
not possible to insert a slide
directly into the zero
compartment
2. Insert the slide
directly into the slide
gate
3. Place the tray as usual
in the zero-position (see
page 25)
4. With the next slide
transport the slide will be
lifted from the slide gate into
the zero compartment of the
tray
Note EKTAPRO 9020 Projector:
You can immediately bring the tray back to the zero
position after the last slide with the help of the automatic
zero positioning feature. This is useful when continuous
projection is required using only a few slides.

you wish to show them. Then turn the slide upside down.
n Number each mount in the upper right-hand corner of the film’s shiny side.

outer circumference of the tray. Insert your second slide in the second slot with the
emulsion (dull side) facing your first slide, and so on.
AFTER:
n View each slide against a light source and orient for projection (check for proper
horizontal, vertical, right and left positioning.)
n Arrange the slides in the order you wish to show them.
n Rotate them 180 degrees - upside down.
n Number (or mark) each mount in the upper right-hand corner.
