pixels and per 16 vertical pixels.

There are also the lines for overlap setting for reference. They are located 5 pixels inside from

4.2. Caution

• Replace the lamp with as less pressure as possible on the optical engine not to swerve 6-

axis adjustment.

• Never look into the lamp while it is o n .

• Never touch the glass envelope of the lamp with your fingers. The oil on your fingers may

cause damage or explosion of the lamp.

• Never touch the lighting lamp because the temperature of the lamp gets very high.

• Never touch the metal part of the lamp connector because a high pressure arises ther e.

• Just open the lamp lid either A or B, which corresponds to the replacing lamp. If you replace

both, replacing work should be done sep arately.

• Replace the lamp with drawing on thick glove. The lamp is heated for a while even if the

lamp is turned off.

4.6. Information display

4.6.1. Warning message
The lamp changer can notice the indication to call service person and the pre-ann oun cement of
lamp exchanging. It can be set from the 3 types as below in WARNING in LAMP PARAMETER in
service menu (refer to “Service menu” on page 20).
OFF: Nothing to display on the screen.
TYPE 1: Display only the indication to call service pers on
TYPE 2: Display both indications to call service person and the pre-an nouncement of lamp
exchanging.

[The indication to call service person]
The indication blinks every 15 seconds w hen some errors occur and
it is required to call service person.

[The pre-announcement of lamp exchanging]
This message is displayed when the lamp is brown-out. It count s
down from 5 to 0, then starts lamp exchang in g.

4.6.2. Operation time and error indication
It can display error information and projector operating time at error detection in service menu
(refer to “Service menu” on page 20). Last couple of error information is indicated.

4.7. Lamp exchanging time

If it fails lamp ignition, it retries till 6 times at start-up and 2 times in the middle of normal
operation.
It takes several tens of seconds from projector turning on to lamp turning on.
In the case of lamp ignition failure, it retries after 55 seconds interval according to the
specification that lamp manufacturer recommends.

2. Bits per second : 19,200bps/ 9,600bps (Selectable by dip switch)

3. Parity : None

4. Data bits : 8bits

5. S t op b it s : 1bit

5.2. Command character strings

A com mand is defined by ASCII characters. It consists o f a com m and ID n umber, a command
name and zero or more parameters. A carriage return ( CR) c ode (0Dh) is added at the end of
each command. The comma nd ID and the command name shall not be delimited. Case
sensitivity is on.
ID Command [ Parameter1 ]¥r
Example: 01vP1 ¥r
Note: “¥r” stands for a CR code (0Dh).

5.3. Command ID

Command ID represents unit ID o f controlled pro jectors by tw o decim al dig it ASCII characters.
The unit ID can be set by the dip switch of the unit in the range of 01 to 32. When a command
with a command ID “00” is sent, all connected projectors execute the command at once. Only
when the command ID correspon ds with the ir unit ID or when the co mmand ID is “00”, Pro jectors
execute the command.

5.4. Sequence

After receiving the CR code (0Dh), the projector analyzes and executes the com mand w ithin 700
msec, and starts to transfer the result string. However, if the command ID does not correspond
with the unit ID, the projector will not return any result string.

When the projector receives a command with a command ID “00”, it will return the result string. If
the master function is not set effective, it will not return any result string.

When the projector is processing a command, the host shall not issue any command. (The
period of receiving result string or 700 msec after CR code transmission, wh ichever shorter is
regarded as the time the projector is processing the command by the host.)

* As for some commands, it might take more than 700 msec till the projector returns the result
string after receiving a command.

5.5. Command return value

Projectors return command execution results with AS CII character strings. A result string consists
of an ID number , comm and na me and z ero or more return v alues. A CR code is adde d at the end
of each result string. The ID number and the com mand name shall not be delimited. The ID
number represents unit ID by two decimal digit ASCII characters.

When the projector receives a command with a command ID “00”, it will return the result string. If
the projector receives an undefined command, it will not return any result string. If the master
function is n o t s e t effective , it will not return any result st r in g .

The result strings which are returned in response to the command with the ID number “00” w i ll
contain the ID number “00”.

Example: 01vP1 ¥r
Note: “¥r” stands for a CR code (0Dh).
