INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

(9) Ventilation for system

The ventilation method differs according to where the system is installed. The following shows how to provide ventilation for the units according to the place of installation. Refer to these and keep the installation condition in the previous section [(8) Temperature and Humidity] at the system. But when installing your unit, consult your dealer.

1 When there are no walls on all sides (within 1m)

As shown in Fig. 3-3, attach the top panel, side panel, and rear panel.

(Note) When attaching the rear panel, be careful not to block the vents for the fan of the projection unit.

2 When there is a wall at the back *

As shown in Fig. 3-5, mount a large fan to the top panel, provide vents for inhaling air at the bottom panel to blow out air inside. Always leave more than 300 mm between the wall and the back of the unit.

(Fig. 3-3)

3 When blocking the bottom (when placing the projection unit on the floor directly) *

Same as 1. (Fig. 3-6)

<Note> *: There should be no obstacles within the 1m area of the

unit except for the rear and bottom. If this condition is

not followed, construct your own ventilation system

(large fan, low temperature by air-conditioning, etc.)

(Fig. 3-6)

according to the site of use.

(Fig. 3-5)

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

(10) Condensation

One problem that occurs in the winter season is "Condensation". When the temperature of the room in which the multiprojection unit system is installed rises suddenly, condensation occurs on the screen and lens, thereby the system cannot display its best performance. In such cases, turn off the power once, leave the system off for one hour, and turn on the power again. Increasing the room temperature gradually is another method.

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

4 3P Plug

The power cord of this unit has a 3P plug. This is to prevent electric shocks caused by leaked currents. Always connect it to a 3P outlet.

5 Leak Breaker

The unit is incorporated with the power line filter to reduce noise. Therefore a 0.5 mA leakage current will flow with each unit. If a leak breaker is equipped, check that its sensitive level is above the total leakage current of the system. Also calculate each unit such as image transmission unit, etc. as 0.5 mA. It is extremely dangerous to supply power from existing wall outlets, etc. Position the final outlet connected to each unit of this system as near as possible to the system. Set the current capacity slightly greater-about more than 25% of the total consumption power.

(15) Cables Used

Use coaxial cables. Normally use a 3C-2V for less than 20m long. Use 5C-2V for greater lengths. 5C-2V is recommended for high-vision. Adjust the length of the cables. The distance between the transmission system and multi-projection unit should be as short as possible. When the distance is great, consider the thickness of the cable and electrical compensation carefully.

The limit is as shown when using the cables to connect the transmission final output terminal and the system.

3C-2V: 15m 5C-2V: 30m

To use a longer cable, the VIDEO signal must be corrected.

(16) Semi-outdoor Installation

This system is basically designed for use indoors. However, if it has to be installed outdoors, take note of the following.

• Waterproof and rustproof measures

• Temperature difference and humidity difference

• Light on the screen (So that it is not exposed to direct sunlight.)

• Wind containing salt

(17) Precautions for Use of User-Obtained Parts

It is recommended that Pioneer products be used for the projection stand, mount unit, etc. Users obtaining these parts separately by themselves should take note of the following.

• When obtaining stands and mount units separately, make sure that the system can be installed horizontally. Also calculate strength properly and take adequate measures against tilting of the screen. If the recommended stand and mount unit are not used, Pioneer will bear no responsibility whatsoever for accidents and injuries incurred due to incomplete connections and mounting, natural disasters, etc.

• When mounting top board, side board, rear panel obtained separately, use the holes for mounting the Pioneer stand and projection frame. (Refer to Fig. 3-39)

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

5. SPECIAL INSTALLATION

(1) Wall inset

• If removing the screen after installing the system, the person must go behind the screen (diagonally shaded part of the figure). Therefore when insetting the unit in the wall, careful take this into account before installation.

Screen

(Fig. 3-43)

• When fixing the screen into the wall, space for placing your hand inside the wall at the top, bottom, right, and left will be required in addition to the above in order to attach and remove the screen.

(2) Diagonal installation

• This system cannot be placed facing upwards or downwards and diagonally. Always place it horizontally. However, Multiprojection unit (RM-V4000NA/V5000NA) alone can be tilted at the up to 45 deg. Installation of special order screens and cabinets should also become possible in the near future.

(3) Architrave processing

• When enclosing the screen with a frame, etc., add 15 mm to the dimensions of the assembled screen at the top, bottom, left, and right. * Perform framing constructions after assembling the screen.

15 mm

(Fig. 3-44)

• If light leaks from the rear space after constructions, place a blind plate over the rear.

• No one should climb onto the top board. (RMF-V4011/V5011)

(4) Upside down installation

• Not possible

(5) Hanging from ceiling

• Not possible

CHAPTER 4. ADJUSTMENTS

1. ADJUSTMENT PREPARATIONS

(1) Wiring

1 Connection of Power Supply

• The power supply can be connected to up to 3 units in a series using the AC outlets of Multi projection units. Connect the three units as one system to the external outlet.

• The AC plug of Multi projection unit is a 3P with a ground pin. When connecting it to a normal outlet, use an exclusive 3P AC adapter.

• The AC plug of Multi projection unit is a 3P with a ground pin. To prevent electric shocks, connect the ground pin to the ground when connecting the power supply.

2 Connection of signal cable

• Use coaxial cables. Normally, if less than 15m, use 3C-2V. If less than 30m, use 5C-2V. The signal transmission equipment and Multi projection units should be as close as possible to each other.

3 Connection of ABL link cable

• By connecting the ABL link cables in cascade form, control signals (RS-232C, remote control signal) can be transmitted to all the units.

Personal Computer

Remote control unit

(Up to 16 units can be operated using the remote control unit at one time using the link cable.)

(2) Wiring Handling

• Except for short-term installations such as events, etc., in normal long-term installations, adjust the length of the wiring appropriately taking into consideration the overall route to be wired.

• Make sure the connection terminals are not subjected to direct weight and force. Tie the wires up in short-term use and bind them up properly in long-term use.

(3) Aging

• After turning on the power, input the 100% white signal or moving images, and perform aging until Multi projection unit stabilizes (about 1 hour). If adjustments are performed without aging, as it takes time until Multi projection unit will warm up and stabilize, convergence and white balance will become incorrect.

ADJUSTMENTS

(2) TV System

The TV system determines the control of the whole unit (convergence, OSD display select, video system select, deflection) according to the signal input. Set it according to the signal input.

When TV SYSTEM is set to AUTO

• The mode is automatically set to NTSC or PAL according to the input signal (NTSC/PAL). When the TV SYSTEM is set to NTSC

• The mode is set to NTSC regardless of the input signal. When the TV SYSTEM is set to PAL

• The mode is set to PAL regardless of the input signal.

[Precaution to use]

Normally, the TV SYSTEM is set to AUTO. If the signals cannot be differentiated between NTSC and PAL (or they are differentiated incorrectly : VCR signal repeatedly dubbed or part of CATV converter, etc.), the TV SYSTEM is set to NTSC or PAL according to the input signal.

When the input signal is NTSC or PAL, and the TV SYSTEM is set to NTSC or PAL, it can enable the input to be switched smoothly (little screen noises), and prevent signals from being differentiated incorrectly due to signal disturbances and cuts.

In some cases, even if the same TV format is used, more than two types of convergence data will be required. (For example, when there are signal phase differences for every input source, etc.) In such cases, use two types of memories. Switch them using the personal computer.

ADJUSTMENTS

(6) Giving IDs

When several Multi projection units are used to compose the 9 screens or 16 screens (multi-screen), the ID is used to differentiate between Multi projection units. When the units are given IDs, by connecting the ABL link cable, commands can be transmitted by specifying the ID, and it is possible to operate only Multi projection unit corresponding to that ID by remote control operations.

Commands: IDC (IDC CLEAR) ;Clears the ID given

IDS (ID SET) ;Gives an ID The IDS is valid only when no ID has been given. It will be valid from units nearest to the personal computer (remote control).

(Example) 4 screens • When giving IDs first using Personal Computer.

Personal Computer

**AJY 11 IDS

↓

**AJY 12 IDS

**AJY 22 IDS

By sending commands in this order, IDs can be given to each Multi Projection Unit (connect ABL link cables as above example).

The characters that can be used for the IDs are 0 to 9 and A to F, and * (capital and small letters are not differentiated). The * can be used in the following way.

** IDC :Clears IDs given to all units *1AJY :Only units which have IDs whose 2nd digit is 1 enter the adjustment mode. 2* IN1 :The input function of only units which have IDs whose 1st digit is 2 is set to VIDEO.

Movement of screenOSD display

Observe here

Use especially when adjusting the horizontal size of the left side of the screen .

In addition, there are nine other area adjustments. It is a convenience to adjust deviation of circumference screens.

ADJUSTMENTS

In adjustment step 5 , observe the external part of the screen, adjust the 16 adjusting points there, taking note of linearity in the peripheral area such as joining with other screens, crosshatch, etc. (Ignore the distortion inside the screen.)

In adjustment step 6 , adjust the inside of the screen and produce linearity.

The following are examples of adjusting points in point convergence adjustments and their movements on the screen.

When point C is lowered by point convergence, point D should not move.

Note Convergence can be adjusted even if the optimum values are slightly different from the above optimum values during adjustments. But, if the screen changes markedly, re-adjust H BLK L or H BLK R, and adjust the convergence.

5 Rough Adjustments

(1) Black level adjustment Signal:White 10%

Adjust R LOW, G LOW, and B LOW to the point where the CRT starts lighting up.

(2) HI LIGHT adjustment Signal:White 50%

Adjust R HI, G HI, and B HI so that the CRT becomes white. First, adjust so that the brightness of R, G, and B becomes the same, and while maintaining that brightness, balance R, G, and B, and adjust so that the CRT becomes white.

(3) LOW LIGHT adjustment Signal:White 20%

Adjust R LOW, G LOW, and B LOW so that the CRT becomes gray.

(4) Convergence adjustment Signal:White 50%, 20%

Repeat (2) to (3) and converge the light. If the HI LIGHT of R, G, and B is moved, their LOW LIGHT will change greatly. Therefore, pay special attention to the value of the LOW LIGHT.

6 LINEAR WHITE adjustment

When white peak signals such as WINDOW are input, due to the characteristics of the Blue CRT, there is a tendency for the peak to become yellow compared to other colors. The linear white adjustment is performed to correct this tendency. Blue becomes weak when data is set to UP and strong when set to DOWN. If Linear White is added excessively, the ABL voltage becomes unbalanced and the medium luminance of blue may be erased, etc. Also make sure that the blue is not blur when MULTI ON is set because the top left and bottom left of the screen are affected first.

LINEAR WHITE becomes effective

LINEAR WHITE Down

7 ABL GAIN adjustment (White 100%)

The ABL GAIN adjustment adjusts the white 100% luminance of a unit to other units after low luminance and medium luminance have been adjusted. Normally, when white 100% is input, ABL is imposed and the current is controlled so that the current flowing in the CRT does not exceed a certain level. Even if the current flowing in the CRT of each unit is the same, the difference in the characteristics of each CRT will cause their luminance to become inconsistent. The ABL GAIN adjustment converges this inconsistency. It adjusts the ABL current flowing virtually. In white 100% inputs, as the ABL works efficiently, the luminance drops, when the ABL GAIN of a unit with high luminance is decreased, use this adjustment to adjust its luminance to the other units. Turn off the ABL in the adjustment. Normally set the ABL GAIN to maximum.

8 ABL LEVEL adjustment (White 100%)

The ABL LEVEL adjustment controls the inconsistency of the ABL control voltage of each unit when ABL is on.

[1] Set the ABL of all units to ON. [2] Turn on and off the ABL of each unit to change the luminance. [3] For units whose luminance becomes dark when ABL is ON, turn UP the ABL level and set to the point where the

luminance stops changing by turning on and off the ABL.

[4] For units whose luminance does not change, turn DOWN the ABL level to the point just before the luminance

becomes dark.

[5] Perform steps (2) to (4) for all the units, change white from 0 to 100% and check that the ABL does not work

abnormally.

(6) External Control by RS-232C

As Multi projection unit is equipped with a RS-232C port, various controls and, white balance and convergence adjustments can be performed by an external computer. By programming software ,it is possible not only to adjust White Balance,Convergence but to save and control the adjustment data of each source.
