2.1 General installation guidelines

WARNING: Prior to installing the projector, read the safety instructions in Safety manual R5976125 delivered

with the projector.

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

Ambient Temperature Conditions.

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 : 35°C or 95°F

Min. ambient temperature : 10°C or 50 °F

The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature is higher than 40°C or 104°F).

Storage temperature: -35°C to +65°C (-31°F to 149°F)

Humidity Conditions

Storage: 0 to 98 % RH Non-condensing

Operation: 0 to 95 % RH Non-condensing

CAUTION: Harmful Environmental Contamination Precaution

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; check that temperature near the installation site is not

excessive.

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. 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 desirable 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.

Only ever use the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning kit which has been speciﬁcally designed for cleaning optical parts, never

use industrial strength cleaners on the projector’s optics as these will degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics

components. Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contam-

inants will culminate 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 manufacturer’s 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 manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a projector has been subject to

wantful neglect, abandon or improper use.

2. Installation

Special Care for Laser Beams

Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as performant laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting

of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital MicroMirror Devices™ in which case there is a loss of warranty

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 width of minimum 1.00 m (3.3 ft) to maximum 15 m (49.21 ft), depending on the

ambient light conditions, with the native aspect ratio of the projector.

Air ﬂow guidelines

The hot air outlet at the rear side of the projector can reach high temperatures due to the high power lamp. Do not come near it

while the projector is running with lamp switched on.

2. Installation

The cool air inlet at the bottom side of the projector may never be blocked. Always keep enough distance between projector’s

bottom and support plate to allow a good air ﬂ ow in. It is advised to also use an open projector support frame rather than a full

support plate.

2.4.3 Shift capabilities

Description

The maximum vertical and horizontal shift range depends on the lens. Shifting outside this range will not guarantee a full image i.e.

some corners of the image will be clipped and will not be visible (will appear dark on the screen).

The table below gives an overview of the shift capabilities in function of the lens :

Lens shift range Vertical shift Horizontal shift

TLD+ (0.73:1) up/down : 22% left/right : 9%

TLD+ (1.2:1)

TLD+ (1.5-2.0:1)
