2. Installation Guidelines

2. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Overview

• Safety warnings

• Installation guidelines

• Projector configurations

• Lenses

2.1 Safety warnings

Before installing the projector, read first the safety instructions in the safety manual (R5975258) delivered with

the projector.

Insure that the projector is installed in an easy to evacuate room in case of a lamp explosion.

2.2 Installation guidelines

Ambient temperature check

Careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type of screen to use are critical to

the optimum use of the projection system.

Max. ambient temperature : 40 °C or 104 °F

Min. ambient temperature : 0 °C or 32 °F

The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature falls outside this range (0°C- 40°C or 32°F-104°F).

Environment

Do not install the projection system in a site near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,

excessive dust or humidity. Be aware that room heat rises to the ceiling; c

heck that temperature near the installation site is not

excessive

Harmful Environmental Contamination Precaution

Environment condition check

A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets as well

as free flow at the ventilation outlets. The installati

on must also allow easy access to the consumable parts ( dustfilters, lamps, ...)

For installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines

or similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading

performance), then it is highly advisable and desi

rable to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean

air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not

a feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered. Make sure that the

projector never runs with dirty dustfilters as

this will dramatically reduce the lifetime of the consumables. It is advised to clean the

dustfilters on a regular basis and to replace them at any lamp change. Barco reserves itself the right to refuse warranty replacement

of consumables if they have been used in a projector with dirty airfilters. Only use the manufactures recommended cleaning kit which

has been specifically designed for clea

ning optical parts, never use industrial strength cleaners on a projectors optics as these will

degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics .

Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contaminants will culmi-

nate in extensive and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will be non-effective

and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufactures warranty and may deem the

warranty null and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any repair. It is the

clients responsibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne particles in the

environment of the projector. The manufacture reserves the right to refuse warranty repair if a projector has been subject to wantful

neglect, abandon or improper use.

What about ambient light ?

The ambient light level of any room is made up of direct or indirect sunlight and the light fixtures in the room. The amount of ambient

light will determine how brig

ht the image will appear. So, avoid direct light on the screen. Windows that face the screen should be

R5976455 BARCO ULTRA REALITY 7000 30062003

2. Installation Guidelines

covered by opaque drapery while the set is being viewed. It is desirable to install the projection system in a room whose walls and

floor are of non-reflecting material. The use of recessed ceiling lights and a method of dimming those lights to an acceptable level

is also important. Too much ambient light will ‘wash out’ of the projected image. This appears as less contrast between the darkest

and lightest parts of the image. With bigger screens, the ‘wash out’ becomes more important. As a general rule, darken the room to

the point where there is just sufficient light to read or write comfortably. Spot lighting is desirable for illuminating small areas so that

interference with the screen is minimal.

Which screen type ?

There are two major categories of screens used for projection equipment. Those used for front projected images and those for rear

projection applications. Screens are rated by how much light they reflect (or transmit in the case of rear projection systems) given a

determined amount of light projected toward them. The ‘GAIN’ of a screen is the term used. Front and rear screens are both rated

in terms of gain. The gain of screens range from a white matte screen with a gain of 1 (x1) to a brushed aluminized screen with a

gain of 10 (x10) or more. The choice between higher and lower gain screens is largely a matter of personal preference and another

consideration called the Viewing angle. In considering the type of screen to choose, determine where the viewers will be located

and go for the highest gain screen possible. A high gain screen will provide a brighter picture but reduce the viewing angle. For

more information about screens, contact your local screen supplier.

Image size

The projector is designed for projecting an image size with a screenwidth from 1.00m (3.3ft) to 6.00m (19.7ft) with an aspect ratio of

4to3.

2.4.2 Lens selection

How to select ?

1. Determine the required screen width.

2. Determine the approximate position of the projector in the projection room with regard to the screen and measure the projector-

screen distance (PD).

3. Use the lens formulas to find the best corresponding PD with regard to the measured projector-screen distance for the required

screen width.

2. Installation Guidelines

The procedure for the mounting of a Scheimpflug lens is different.

Refer to the installation manual of the lens.

Never transport the projector with the lens mounted on it !

Always remove the lens before transporting the projector.

2.4.5 Cleaning the lens

To minimize the possibility of damaging the optical coating or scratching exposed lens surface, we have de-

veloped recommendations for cleaning the lens. FIRST, we recommend you try to remove any material from

the lens by blowing it off with clean, dry deionized air. DO NOT use any liquid to clean the lenses.

Necessary tools

Tor a ys ee

cloth (delivered together with the lens kit). Order number : R379058.

Howtocleanthelens?

Proceed as follow :

1. Always wipe lenses with a CLEAN Toraysee

cloth.

2. Always wipe lenses in a single direction.

Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.

3. Do not leave cleaning cloth in either an open room or lab coat pocket, as doing so can contaminate the cloth.

4. If smears occur when cleaning lenses, replace the cloth. Smears are the first indication of a

dirty cloth.

Do not use fabric softener when washing the cleaning cloth or softener sheets whe

n drying the cloth.

Do not use liquid cleaners on the cloth as doing so will contaminate the cloth.

Other lenses can also be cleaned safely with this Toraysee

cloth.
