Domain of application
The lamp startup failure can happen in following projectors :
• iQ G/R 210 projectors
• iQ G/R 200 projectors upgraded with the LPS upgrade Kit R841922K
New L amp Power Supply
The iQ 210 series are standard equipped with the new Philips lamp power supply modules
to guarantee the specif
ied 6000 hours of operation.
These new lamp drivers have an adapted drive voltage range and can thus e nsure power

However, som e cases of lamp startup failures have been reported with these n ew lamp
drivers.
