Notice on safety

This equipment is built in accordance with the requirements of the international safety standards IEC60950-1, EN60950-1, UL60950-1 and CAN/CSA C22.2 No.60950-1, which are the safety standards of information technology equipment including electrical business equipment. These safety standards impose important requirements on the use of safety critical components, materials and insulation, in order to protect the user or operator against risk of electric shock and energy hazard and having access to live parts. Safety standards also impose limits to the internal and external temperature rises, radiation levels, mechanical stability and strength, enclosure construction and protection against the risk of fire. Simulated single fault condition testing ensures the safety of the equipment to the user even when the equipment's normal operation fails.

Notice on optical radiation

This projector embeds extremely high brightness (radiance) lasers; this laser light is processed through the projector's optical path. Native laser light is not accessible by the end user in any use case. The light exiting the projection lens has been diffused within the optical path, representing a larger source and lower radiance value than native laser light. Nevertheless the projected light represents a significant risk for the human eye and skin when exposed directly within the beam. This risk is not specifically related to the characteristics of laser light but solely to the high thermal induced energy of the light source; which is equivalent with lamp based systems.

Thermal retinal eye injury is possible when exposed within the Hazard Distance (HD). The HD is defined from the projection lens surface towards the position of the projected beam where the irradiance equals the maximum permissible exposure as described in the chapter "Hazard Distance".

WARNING: No direct exposure to the beam within the hazard distance shall be permitted, RG3 (Risk Group 3) IEC 62471-5:2015

CAUTION: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Users definition

Throughout this manual, the term SERVICE PERSONNEL refers to persons having appropriate technical training and experience necessary to be knowledgeable of potential hazards to which they are exposed (including, but not limited to HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRIC and ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY and HIGH BRIGHTNESS PROJECTORS) in performing a task, and of measures to minimize the potential risk to themselves or other persons. The term USER and OPERATOR refers to any person other than SERVICE PERSONNEL, AUTHORIZED to operate professional projection systems.

The UDX projector is intended "FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY" by AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL familiar with potential hazards associated with high voltage, high intensity light beams and high temperatures generated by the light source and associated circuits. Only qualified SERVICE PERSONNEL, knowledgeable of such risks, are allowed to perform service functions inside the product enclosure.

1.2 Important safety instructions

To prevent the risk of electrical shock

• This product should be operated from a mono phase AC power source. Ensure that the mains voltage and capacity matches the projector electrical ratings (120-160V / 200-240V (+/- 10%), 20A, 50-60Hz). If you are unable to install the AC requirements, contact your electrician. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding.
• This apparatus must be grounded (earthed) via the supplied 3 conductor AC power cable. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug.
• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product where persons will walk on the cord. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• Use only the power cord supplied with your device. While appearing to be similar, other power cords have not been safety tested at the factory and may not be used to power the device. For a replacement power cord, contact your dealer.
• Do not operate the projector with a damaged cord. Replace the cord.
• Do not operate the projector if the projector has been dropped or damaged - until it has been examined and approved for operation by qualified service personnel.
• Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.
• If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the projector should be used. A cord rated for less amperage than the projector may overheat.
• Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
• Do not expose this projector to rain or moisture.
• Do not immerse or expose this projector in water or other liquids.
• Do not spill liquid of any kind on this projector.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the set and have it checked by qualified service personnel before resuming operations.

To prevent personal injury

• To prevent injury and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before powering the projector or adjusting the projector.
• To prevent injury, take note of the weight of the projector. Minimum 2 persons are needed to carry the projector. The projector weights about ± 90 kg ( ± 198 lbs) without lens and rigging frame.
  • To prevent injury, ensure that the lens and all covers are correctly installed. See installation procedures.
• Warning: high intensity light beam. NEVER look into the lens! High luminance could result in damage to the eye.
• Warning: extremely high brightness projector: This projector embeds extremely high brightness (radiance) lasers; this laser light is processed through the projectors optical path. Native laser light is not

accessible by the end user in any use case. The light exiting the projection lens has been diffused within the optical path, representing a larger source and lower radiance value than native laser light.

Nevertheless the projected light represents a significant risk for the human eye when exposed directly within the beam. This risk is not specific related to the characteristics of laser light but solely to the high thermal induced energy of the light source; which is comparable with lamp based systems.

Thermal retinal eye injury is possible when exposed within the Hazard Distance. The Hazard Distance (HD) is defined from the projection lens surface towards the position of the projected beam where the irradiance equals the maximum permissible exposure as described in the chapter "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 15.

• High Brightness Warning: The projector light source may not be switched on or the shutter must be closed when no projection lens is installed.
• Based on international requirements, no person is allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between the projection lens and the related Hazard Distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating sufficient separation height or by placing optional barriers. Within the restricted area operator training is considered sufficient. The applicable separation heights are discussed in “High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)”, page 15.
• Don't put your hand in front of the beam.
• Before attempting to remove any of the projector's covers, you must turn off the projector and disconnect from the wall outlet.
• When required to switch off the projector, to access parts inside, always disconnect the power cord from the power net.
• The power input at the projector side is considered as the disconnect device. When required to switch off the projector, to access parts inside, always disconnect the power cord at the project side. In case the power input at the projector side is not accessible (e.g. ceiling mount), the sc outlet supplying the projector shall be installed nearby the projector and be easily accessible, or readily accessible general disconnect device shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
• Never stack more than 2 UDX projectors in a hanging configuration (truss) and never stack more than 3 UDX projectors in a base stand configuration (table mount).
• When using the projector in a hanging configuration, always mount 2 safety cables. See installation manual for the correct use of these cables.
• Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious damage to it and possible injury to the user.
• It is hazardous to operate without lens or shield. Lenses or shields shall be changed if they have become visibly damaged to such an extent that their effectiveness is impaired. For example by cracks or deep scratches.
• Cooling liquid circuit. The projector contains a cooling circuit filled with Mono-ethylene glycol (1,2-ethane diol) and inhibitors in aqueous solution (34% active). When the cooling circuit leaks, switch off the device and contact qualified service personnel. The liquid is not for household use. Keep out of reach of children. Harmful by oral intake. Avoid exposure to pregnant women. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid inhale of the noxious fumes.
• Never point or allow light to be directed on people or reflective objects within the HD zone.
  • All operators shall have received adequate training and be aware of the potential hazards.
• In case of using an external cooling system position the hoses of the cooling system so that they will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.

To prevent fire hazard

- Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!

- Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regulations. This projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing flammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external surfaces of the projector whereby no flammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not less than 40 cm (16") for this projector.

- Do not place any object in the projection light path at close distance to the projection lens output. The concentrated light at the projection lens output may result in damage, fire or burn injuries.

- Ensure that the projector is solidly mounted so that the projection light path cannot be changed by accident.

- Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. . Mount the projector in a well ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In the event of fire, use sand dry powder fire extinguishers. Never

use water on an electrical fire. Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on genuine Barco replacement parts. Never use non-Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of this projector.

• Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the projector and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface. This projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat. It is necessary to vent hot exhaust air from projector and cooling system to the outside of the building.
• Let the projector cool completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.

To prevent battery explosion

• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly installed.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
• For disposal of used batteries, always consult federal, state, local and provincial hazardous waste disposal rules and regulations to ensure proper disposal.

To prevent projector damage

• The air filters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis. Cleaning the booth area would be monthly-minimum. Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air flow inside the projector, causing overheating. Overheating may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
  • The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets.
• If more than one projector is installed in a common projection booth, the exhaust air flow requirements are valid for EACH individual projector system. Note that inadequate air extraction or cooling will result in decreased life expectancy of the projector as a whole as well as causing premature failure of the lasers.
• In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and safety requirements, it should always be operated with all of its covers in place.
• Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The device should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and remove all power from the projector. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service personnel.
• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• Special care for Laser Beams: Special care should be used when DLP projectors are used in the same room as high power laser equipment. Direct or indirect hitting of a laser beam on to the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices in which case there is a loss of warranty.
• Never place the projector in direct sunlight. Sunlight on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices™ in which case there is a loss of warranty.
• Save the original shipping carton and packing material. They will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.
• Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution.
• To ensure the highest optical performance and resolution, the projection lenses are specially treated with an anti-reflective coating, therefore, avoid touching the lens. To remove dust on the lens, use a soft dry cloth. For lens cleaning follow the instructions precisely as stipulated in the projector manual.
• Only use zoom lenses of the Barco TLD+ series on the 4k models of the UDX. Using other lenses will damage the internal optics. For suitable fixed TLD+ lenses contact Barco or see Barco website.
• Allowed ambient temperature range: = t 0°C (32°F) to 40 °C (104 °F)
• Rated humidity = 0% RH to 80% RH Non-condensed.

On servicing

• Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage potentials and risk of electric shock.
  • Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Attempts to alter the factory-set internal controls or to change other control settings not specially discussed in this manual can lead to permanent damage to the projector and cancellation of the warranty.
• Remove all power from the projector and refer servicing to qualified service technicians under the following conditions:

- When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

• If liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions since improper adjustment of the other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.
• If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
• If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.

- Replacement parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used original Barco replacement parts or authorized replacement parts which have the same characteristics as the Barco original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in degraded performance and reliability, fire, electric shock or other hazards. Unauthorized substitutions may void warranty.

- Safety check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

Stacking/transporting UDX rental flight cases

• Stack maximum 2 rental flight cases high. Never higher.
• Surface on which flight case is standing must be level to ensure that the total load is evenly spread out among the four wheels. The surface must also be able to support the load safely.
  • Before stacking or transporting flight cases, check the wheels and their fixation screws for wear or defects.

- Before stacking or transporting flight cases, check that the four lock handles on each flight case are in good working order and locked securely.

- When stacked, make sure the wheels of the upper flight case are precisely positioned in the stacking dishes of the flight case below.

- Stacked flight cases may not be moved. Before stacking, the lower flight case must already be in its final resting position before placing the second upon it.

- Never stack loaded flight cases in a truck or other transport medium, unless each flight case is rigidly strapped tight.

• In the event of a wheel breaking, flight cases must be rigidly strapped tight to prevent a stack collapsing.

- Use an appropriate forklift to raise flight cases and take the necessary precautions to avoid personnel injury.

Hazard RG3: optical radiation warning symbol.

WARNING! DO NOT LOOK INTO THE LIGHT BEAM NO DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE TO THE BEAM IS PERMITTED. RG3 IEC EN 62471-5:2015. CLASS 1 IEC EN 60825-1:2014. HAZARD DISTANCE: CONSULT SAFETY MANUAL.

THIS PRODUCT IS IN CONFORMITY WITH PERFORMANCE STANDARDS FOR LASER PRODUCTS UNDER 21 CFR 1040, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THOSE CHARACTERISTICS AUTHORIZED BY VARIANCE NUMBER 2016-V-0144 EFFECTIVE ON JUNE 7, 2017.

1.4 High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)

HD

Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin. The light beam is considered (to be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the light source is less than the HD.

Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD

The HD depends on the amount of lumens produced by the projector and the type of lens installed. See next chapter "HD in function of modifying optics", page 19.

To protect untrained end users (as cinema visitors, spectators) the installation shall comply with the following installation requirements: Operators shall control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at the height that will prevent spectators' eyes from being in the hazard distance. Radiation levels in excess of the limits will not be permitted at any point less than 2.0 meter (SH) above any surface upon which persons other than operators, performers, or employees are permitted to stand or less than 1.0 meter (SW) lateral separation from any place where such persons are permitted to be. In environments where unrestrained behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or

equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential exposure, for example by an individual sitting on another individual's shoulders, within the HD.

These values are minimum values and are based on the guidance provided in IEC 62471-5:2015 section 6.6.3.5.

The installer and user must understand the risk and apply protective measures based upon the hazard distance as indicated on the label and in the user information. Installation method, separation height, barriers, detection system or other applicable control measure shall prevent hazardous eye access to the radiation within the hazard distance.

For example, projectors that have a HD greater than 1 m and emit light into an uncontrolled area where persons may be present should be positioned in accordance with “the fixed projector installation” parameters, resulting in a HD that does not extend into the audience area unless the beam is at least 2.0 meter above th floor level. In environments where unrestrained behavior is reasonably foreseeable, the minimum separation height should be greater than or equal to 3.0 meter to prevent potential exposure, for example by an individual sitting on another individual's shoulders, within the HD. Sufficiently large separation height may be achieved by mounting the image projector on the ceiling or through the use of physical barriers.

Based on national requirements, no person is allowed to enter the projected beam within the zone between the projection lens and the related hazard distance (HD). This shall be physically impossible by creating sufficient separation height or by placing barriers. The minimum separation height takes into account the surface upon which persons other than operator, performers or employees are permitted to stand.

On Image 1-2 a typical setup is displayed. It must be verified if these minimum requirements are met. If required a restricted zone (RZ) in the theater must be established. This can be done by using physical barrier, like a red rope as illustrated in Image 1-2.

The restricted area sticker can be replaced by a sticker with only the symbol.

USA market

For LIPs (Laser Illuminated Projectors) installed in the USA market other restriction zone conditions apply.

LIPs for installation in restrained environment (cinema theaters) shall be installed at height vertically above the floor such that the bottom plane of the hazard distance zone shall be no lower than 2.5 meters above the floor. Horizontal clearance to the hazard distance zone shall be not less than 1 meter.

LIPs for installations in unrestrained environment (large venues,...) shall be installed at a height vertically above the floor such that the bottom plane of the Hazard distance Zone shall be no lower than 3 meters above the floor. Horizontal clearance to the hazard distance zone shall be not less than 2.5 meters. Any human access horizontally to the Hazard Zone, if applicable, shall be restricted by barriers. If human access is possible in an unsupervised environment, the horizontal or vertical clearances shall be increased to prevent exposure to the hazard distance zone.

In addition for temporary installations (e.g.: rental and staging, lease, events ...) the following requirements apply:

• This product can only be installed by Barco or sold or leased only to valid laser light show variance holders. In other words our installers are required to have an approved laser light show variance. Such installers may currently hold a valid variance for production of Class IIIb and IV laser light shows and/or for incorporation of the RG3 LIPs into their shows. Dealers and distributors are also required to obtain a valid laser light show variance.
• This product shall be located in such a way that all propagating beam paths within the Restriction Zone, and the audience can be directly observed at all times.
  • Effects other than front or rear screen projections shall not be performed.
  • Communication shall be maintained with other personnel assisting in surveillance of the LIP projection.
• In the event of any unsafe condition, immediately terminates (or designate the termination) of LIP projection light.

Install one or more readily accessible controls to immediately terminate LIP projection light. The power input at the projector side is considered as a reliable disconnect device. When required to switch off the projector, disconnect the power cord at the projector side. In case the power input at the projector side is not accessible (e.g. truss mount), the socket outlet supplying the projector shall be installed nearby the projector and be easily accessible, or a readily accessible general disconnect device shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring.

Laser light shows can be requested via the FDA online eSubmitter portal or via FDA Form FDA Form 3147 referencing to Barco's variance approval 2016-V-0144.

The installation checklist for laser illuminated RG3 projectors must be fully completed after the installation and sent to [e-mail]. This checklist can be downloaded from the Barco website. Only when the installer is a valid laser light show variance holder the checklist should not be sent to Barco.

1.5 HD for fully enclosed projection systems

HD

Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance measured from the projection lens at which the intensity or the energy per surface unit becomes lower than the applicable exposure limit on the cornea or on the skin. The light beam is considered (to be) unsafe for exposure if the distance from a person to the light source is less than the HD.

Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD

The projector is also suitable for rear projection applications; projecting a beam onto a defuse coated projection screen. As displayed in Image 1-3 two areas should be considered: the restricted enclosed projection area (RA) and the observation area (TH).

Image 1-3

RA Restricted Access location (enclosed projection area).

RZ Restriction Zone.

PD Projection Distance.

SWSeparation Width. Must be minimum 1 meter.

PR Projector.

TH Theater (observation area).

For this type of setup 3 different HD shall be considered:

• HD as discussed in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 15, relevant for intrabeam exposure.
• HD reflection: the distance that has to be kept restrictive related to the reflected light from the rear projection screen.
• HD _diffuse : the relevant distance to be considered while observing the diffuse surface of the rear projection screen.

As described in "High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance (HD)", page 15, it is mandatory to create a restricted zone within the beam areas closer than any HD. In the enclosed projection area the combination of two restricted zones are relevant: The restricted zone of the projected beam toward the screen; taking into account 1 meter Separation Width (SW) from the beam onward. Combined with the restricted zone related to the rear reflection from the screen (HD); also taking into account a 1 meter lateral separation.

The HD _reflection distance equals 25% of the difference between the determined HD distance and the projection distance to the rear projection screen. To determine the HD distance for the used lens and projector model se graphs in chapter "HD in function of modifying optics", page 19.

HDreflection = 25% (HD - PD)

The light emitted from the screen within the observation shall never exceed the RG2 exposure limit, determined at 10 cm. The H^2D_e can be neglected if the measured light at the screen surface is below 5000 cd/m² or 15000 LUX.

2.1 Remote control, battery installation

Where to find the batteries for the remote control ?

The batteries are not placed in the remote control unit to avoid control operation in its package, resulting in a shorter battery life time. At delivery the batteries can be found in a separated bag attached to the remote control unit. Before using your remote control, install the batteries first.

How to install

1. Push the battery cover tab with the fingernail a little backwards (1) and pull, at the same time, the cover upwards (2).

Image 2-1

1. Insert the two AA size batteries, making sure the polarities match the + and - marks inside the battery compartment.

Tip: Use alkaline batteries for optimum range and life time.

Image 2-2

1. Insert (1) both lower tabs of the battery cover in the gaps at the bottom of the remote control, and press (2) the cover until it clicks in place.

Image 2-3

When replacing batteries, the broadcast address of the RCU will be reset to its default value '0'.

CAUTION: Replace with the correct battery type. Use two AA size batteries. There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type.

CAUTION: Replace the battery as explained above. There is a risk of explosion if the battery is incorrectly installed.

2.2 Remote control, protocol setup

About the used protocol

The protocol is the code send out by the remote control when a button is pressed. Depending on this code, the projector can decode the signals. The remote control can be used with two different protocols: RC5 and NEC. Depending on the projector to control the remote control can be switched between these protocols.

Which protocol to use

• The NEC protocol has to be used for Barco projectors based on the Pulse platform: F70, F80, F90, HDX 4K, UDX, XDL, etc.
  • The RC5 protocol has to be used all legacy Barco projectors: HDQ 2k40, HDF, HDX W, etc.

How to set

1. Remove the cover. For more info on how to remove, see "Remote control, battery installation", page 22.
2. Place the switch in the desired position.

Image 2-4

Remarks when using the RC5 protocol

Due to new or updated functionality not all buttons of the Pulse RCU are one-to-one compatible with the legacy Barco RCU and projectors. Take the following limitations into account:

• Buttons Shutter open and Shutter close emit the same code when in RC5 mode. This because the legacy RCU's only had 1 button for Shutter functionality.
• Buttons Power on and Power off emit the same code when in RC5 mode. This because the legacy RCU's only had 1 button for Power functionality.
  • The RGB filter button is not supported.
  • The Input selection button is not supported.
  • The Default value button is not supported.
  • The Macro button is not supported.

2.3 Remote control, on/off button

Purpose of the remote control on/off button

The Pulse remote control unit has at the front side an on/off switch (reference 1 Image 2-5). Switching off the remote control prevents that unwanted commands are send due to an accidental key press. Furthermore, switching the RCU off will extend the battery life time of the remote control.

To activate the remote control press the on/off button.

To deactivate the remote control press the on/off button again.

Default when (re)placing batteries, is "ON".

2.5 Functions of the "button pressed indicator"

Functions button pressed indicator

• Rapidly flashes when commands are sent, this is the normal "button pressed" indication.
  • 1 Short flash when remote control is switched ON by means of the on/off button.
  • Continuously lit (up to 5 seconds) when address digits are expected after pressing the ADDR button.
• Slowly flashes (2 times a second) when the battery level is becoming low; typically when more than 85% of the useful life is past.

2.6 Function of the RGB filter button

Filtering the color of the projected image

By pressing the RGB filter button on the RCU you can place a color filter on the output of the projector. This feature can be useful during the installation and configuration of a multi-projector or multi-channel setup. By having one projector project a red image and another project a green image, it is easier to spot and adjust the overlap section.

By pressing this button multiple times, you will have different active filters, in the following cycle:

• Red only
• Green only
• Blue only
• Red + Green
• Green + Blue
• Red + Blue
• Red + Green + Blue
  • etc

• Red + Green + Blue (default)

After powering up, the colors will always revert back to full RGB.

2.7 Displaying and Programming addresses into the RCU

Displaying the Projector Address on the Screen.

1. If the projector is on, press the menu key and navigate to the Status page. The projector address and the broadcast address can be seen under the Communication heading.

The projector's address is displayed on the LCD status screen and / or the OSD.

How to Program an Address into the RCU?

1. Press the Address button until the Button pressed indicator lights up continuously (proximately 5 seconds).
2. Enter the address with the digit buttons within the time the indicator lights up (also proximately 5 seconds).

Note: That address can be any value between 0 and 31.

Tip: A few examples:

To enter address 3, press "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU's address to 3 and wait until

button pressed indicator is out. Alternatively, you can also press "0" and "3". This way, the button

pressed indicator goes out immediately.

To enter address 31, then press "3" and "1" on the digit button on the RCU and the button pressed indicator goes out immediately.

2.8 Using the XLR connector of the RCU

Connecting a cable with the XLR connector will reset the broadcast address of the RCU to its default value '0'.

How to use the XLR connector

1. Remove the XLR cover by pulling it backwards.

Image 2-7

1. Connect a cable with XLR plug into the XLR connector of the RCU.
2. Connect the other end of the cable with the XLR input of the projector.

Note: While the XLR cable is connected, the IR beam of the RCU is switched off.

2.9 Using the mini-jack connector of the RCU

Connecting a cable with the mini-jack connector will reset the broadcast address of the RCU to its default value '0'.

How to use the mini-jack connector

1. Connect a cable with the mini-jack connector (reference 2 Image 2-8) of the RCU.
2. Connect the other end of the cable with the mini-jack input of the projector.

The Keypad gives direct access to several functions, in addition to access to the menu system.

The keypad has a backlight that can be switched on and off manually. By default the light turns off after 5 minutes.

The Power button and Shutter buttons are equipped with white, blue and red backlit LEDs. The other keys are only equipped with white and blue backlit LEDs. The LEDs are controlled according to the features available.

LCD panel

The LCD panel has two main functions:

1. Showing the menus, the adjustment information and also a mirror of the OSD, (On Screen Display) described in User Interface when this is enabled.

• Information regarding the status of the projector showing this data:

• Projector status
  • Network address
  • Active source
  • Current firmware version
• Operation Data
  • Active functions (Enabled Functions).

DMX

DMX-512 Lighting protocol over RS-485 interface. Carries information of 512 channels from a lighting controller to lighting devices. Standardized by USITT.

RS232/RS422 input

The communication interface of the UDX series projector supports RS232 and RS422 serial communication on two different types of input connectors, a Sub-D connector and an USB connector acting as RS input when connected to an USB input of a PC.

You can use the RS232/RS422 input to connect a local PC to your UDX series projector. By this way you can configure and control your projector from your local PC.

Advantages of using RS232/RS422 serial communication:

• easy adjustment of the projector via PC (or MAC).
• allow storage of multiple projector configurations and set ups.
• wide range of control possibilities.
  • address range from 0 to 255.
• sending data to the projector (update).
  • copying data from the projector (backup).

RS232

An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) serial digital interface standard specifying the characteristics of the communication path between two devices using either D-SUB 9 pins or D-SUB 25 pins connectors. This standard is used for relatively short-range communications and does not specify balanced control lines. RS-232 is a serial control standard with a set number of conductors, data rate, word length and type of connector to be used. The standard specifies component connection standards with regard to computer interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version of the RS-232 standard, and is functionally identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logical '0' is > + 3V, Logical '1' is < - 3V. The range between -3V and +3V is the transition zone.

RS422

An EIA serial digital interface standard that specifies the electrical characteristics of balanced (differential) voltage, digital interface circuits. This standard is usable over longer distances than RS-232. This signal governs the asynchronous transmission of computer data at speeds of up to 920,000 bits per second. It is also used as the serial port standard for Macintosh computers. When the difference between the 2 lines is < - 0.2V that equals with a logical '0'. When the difference is > +0.2V that equals to a logical '1'.

USB port

The communication interface is equipped with a master USB port, type "A" connector. This USB port will simplify the service procedures for firmware updates or for downloading the log files without a network connection.

If the only file on the USB device is the firmware file (a “*.fw” file), the projector will automatically start one of the following processes.

- cornet.fw: The projector will upgrade or downgrade, depending on the version number.

- LogExtractor.fw: The log files will be downloaded.

- cornet.fw: The projector will upgrade or downgrade, depending on the version number. - LogExtractor.fw: The log files will be downloaded.

Make sure that any used USB-stick is FAT32 compatible and contains no other files or folders.

3.4 Input source connections – Quad combo input Mark II

About the Quad combo input Mark II

Due to demand from the market, Barco has created a second generation of the Input board to support 12G input and throughput on the SDI connectors. From the release of this board onward, the Quad combo input will be supported and will be the standard input board in every Input & Communication Unit, effectively replacing the Mark I variant.

The updates on this new board include the following compared to its predecessor:

• SDI Input A now also supports 12G input signals.
• SDI Input C now also functions as a loop-through output for any signal placed on Input A.
• SDI Input D now also functions as a loop-through output for any signal placed on Input B.
• HDBaseT Input 1 now also supports network connectivity.

SDI Input & output - How does it work?

When connecting an SDI source to the projector and the signal is HD or 3G, you can choose any of the four input connectors.

When connecting multiple projectors with the same signal, you can connect the signal as follows:

• Connect the source signal to Input A or B of the first projector.
  • If the source signal is connected to Input A, connect Input/Output C to the Input of the following projector.
  • If the source signal is connected to Input B, connect Input/Output D to the Input of the following projector.
• Continue in the same fashion until all projectors are connected.

When connecting a 12G SDI source to the projector, you can only connect that source to input A.

Only Input A accepts 12G SDI signals. While it is technically possible to connect a 12G SDI source to Input B and connect that source to another projector in line (using Input/Output D), this first projector itself will not be able to process the 12G signal.

Spotting the difference between the Mark I and Mark II Input boards

Since there will be projectors in the field that have the Mark I Input Board and others that have the Mark II input board, it is important to know the difference between the two variants.

While there are several minor and barely noticeable differences between the two boards, there is one real visual aid to tell the two variants apart. There are visual markings added on the Mark II Input board, marking which connector supports 12G and which only supports 3G.

CAUTION: The HDBaseT inputs can bridge a distance of 100 m but are sensitive to radiated electromagnetic interference: radiated electromagnetic interference (e.g. from GSM or switching inductive or capacitive loads) within the limits of electromagnetic compatibility requirements of 3 V/m can cause random flashes or temporary loss of the projected image.

As such, shielded CAT-6 cables with metal RJ-45 connectors are recommended; choose cable length no longer than required and route HDBT cable optimally screened from possible sources of electromagnetic emission.

CAUTION: The HDBaseT inputs can bridge a distance of 100 m but are sensitive to radiated electromagnetic interference: radiated electromagnetic interference (e.g. from GSM or switching inductive or capacitive loads) within the limits of electromagnetic compatibility requirements of 3 V/m can cause random flashes or temporary loss of the projected image.

As such, shielded CAT-6 cables with metal RJ-45 connectors are recommended; choose cable length no longer than required and route HDBT cable optimally screened from possible sources of electromagnetic emission.

Image 4-6: IR control via reflective screen

Hardwired to the XLR input

1. Plug one end of the remote cable in the connector on the bottom of the RCU.
2. Plug the other end in the big connector on the communication interface of the projector, labelled 'Remote CTRL'.

Note: Plugging the remote control will switch the broadcast address of the remote control to the default value '0'. This is the only broadcast address that will work when hardwired. If you want to change the broadcast address after disconnecting the remote control, see "Projector Address", page 49.

Pointing directly to the IR sensor

When using the wireless remote control, make sure you are within the effective operating distance (30 m, 100 ft in a straight line). The remote control unit will not function properly if strong light strikes the sensor window if there are obstacles between the remote control unit and the projector IR sensor.

Image 4-7: RCU to one of the IR sensors

Using the RCU in combination with a 3D emitter

When using a 3D emitter that radiates IR beams (e. g. the optional 3D emitter that Barco provides), the IR beams of the 3D emitter may interfere with the IR communication between projector and the RCU.

If such interference occurs, connect the RCU to the projector using the remote cable with XLR connector. It is also be advised to turn the IR receivers of the projector off to avoid the 3D emitter interference. The IR receivers can be turned off in the GUI: System Settings" → "Communication" → "IR Control".

4.5 Projector Address

Projector address

Address installed in the projector to be individually controlled.

Broadcast address

Projector will always execute the command coming from a RCU programmed with that broadcast address.

4.5.1 Controlling the projector

Why a projector address?

As more than one projector can be installed in a room, each projector should be separately addressable with an RCU or computer. Therefore each projector has its own address.

Set up an individual Projector Address

The set up of a projector address can be done via the software.

Projector controlling

When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now:

• with the RCU: only for addresses between 1 and 31.

Broadcast Address

Every projector has a broadcast (common) address '0' or '1'. The default address is '0'.

The choice between '0' and '1' can be selected in the GUI: "System Settings" → "Communication" → "IR Control

Placing new batteries in the remote control or plugging the remote to a projector via a cable will automatically reset the address back to its default value '0'.

7.2 Adjusting the sharpness

About adjusting the sharpness

The sharpness adjustment amplifies the high frequency components in the picture. This means that by increase the sharpness, the picture will be perceived as sharper, and if decreased, the picture will be perceived as more blurry.

Increasing the sharpness will have the best effect in high contrast images, eg a table with text and borders. In a natural picture, high sharpness can be perceived as noise, as all details in the picture will be amplified. Available range: -2 to 8.

Default value: 0

7.4 P7 Realcolor

Purpose

When blending images from multiple projectors, the measured color coordination of each projector can be altered to a desired common level. This so that the projected colors are identical over all projectors used. Alternatively, if you are unfamiliar with how adjusting the Colors to a specific setting, there are also a certain number of presets available, which forces the color output to specific color standards.

How to set custom P7 values

1. In the main menu, select Image → Advanced → P7 Realcolor.

   In RGB mode, the C, M and Y coordinates will be calculated automatically based on the R, G and B coordinates.

3. Custom RGBCMY: 6-point color configuration (both RGB and CMY).
   In RGBCMY mode, each color can be given a specific coordinate within the measured color triangle.

4. Custom WHITE: Configure only the White temperature.

5. Define the coordinates for each available color.

Click on a coordinate value and select the current value. Enter the desired value with the numeric keys.

Note: You can only pick coordinates within the measured color triangle.

1. For Custom White, click on White point and choose one of the following:

• Coordinates: Configure the white point via specific coordinates.
The white point is specified using an x, y coordinate in the CIE 1931 Chart.
• Temperature: Configure the white point via a color temperature slider.
The white point is specified on a Kelvin scale between 3200K and 13000K tracking along the black body curve.

You can reset all coordinates to the default values (to native) by selecting Reset modes to native. Press OK button to reset.

If the main purpose of the projection is image (pictures, movie, or similar purpose), use the 4K UHD output resolution for the best image at the highest light output. If the main purpose of the projection is text (spreadsheets, presentations, or similar purposes), use the 4K UHD S output resolution for the for the most stable and sharpest output.

7.6 Brilliantcolor

About

The Brilliant Color mode has an effect on the color rendering.

With Brilliant Color mode set to Off, only primary colors are generated by the light source.

In Native and Video mode, a secondary color is added (C1). This has the effect of increasing the color intensity, and by that also the perceived light intensity.

Enter the menu, and select the option that give the best result.

7.7 Displaying HDR content – Perceptual Quantizer (PQ)

About PQ

Perceptual Quantizer (PQ) is a non-linear electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) that allows for the display of High Dynamic Range (HDR) content with a luminance level of up to 10 000 cd/m² and can be used with the Rec. 2020 color space.

How to properly display HDR content?

If your provided HDR content has been mastered with PQ (e.g. HDR10 and Dolby Vision), a few changes can be made in order to project the intended mastering on screen. These changes are necessary because HDR content has been mastered specifically for HDR capable displays that are watched in living rooms. These conditions are different from a non-HDR projector and darker cinema-like environments.

The projected HDR content depends on the following factors:

• Mastering luminance: This is content-specific and cannot be changed.
- Screen luminance: Every projection screen has a specific luminance (measured in nits or foot-lambert). Entering this luminance in the projector will adapt the content towards the intended HDR result.
• HDR Boost: A variable "booster" that may amplify or downplay the HDR output.

How to set the PQ?

1. In the main menu, select Image → Advanced → PQ.

Image 7-20

The PQ menu is displayed.

Image 7-21

1. Select the desired Unit (nits or foot-lambert).
2. Enter the Screen luminance (either in nits or foot-lambert).
3. Alter the HDR boost if necessary. You can modify this value to somewhere between 0.8 and 1.2.

8.4 Warping

8.4.1 About warping

Overview

Image warping is the process of digitally manipulating an image to compensate for the distortion of the screen. Consequently, it can also be used to generate an image with irregular shape.

While an image can be transformed in various ways, pure warping doesn't affect the colors.

8.4.2 Warping - On/Off

About warping on/off

By toggling between on and off the warping functionality can be enabled or disabled.

How to toggle

1. In the main menu, select Installation → Warp.

8.4.3 Warping - Screen Size

About (Warp) Screen Size adjustment

If the used source aspect ratio is different than the projector aspect ratio, e.g. source is 16:9 and projector is 16:10, then black bars will be projected. In the example case a black bar on top and bottom of the image will be projected. The warp area contains not only the image information but also the black bars. If we want to position e.g. the active left top corner exactly on the screen using 4 corner warp, then it is very hard to do th as we are moving the black left top corner and we do not have control over the exact position of image left 1 corner. By moving the outline of the warp screen size to the active image information, the corner points of the warp area are now exactly on the corner points of the active image information and makes warping much easier.

8.4.6 Warping - Warp files

About custom Warp Files

Next to setting your specific warp configuration in the GUI, you can also upload or download a custom warp grid in XML format to/from the projector. This is a time-saving option when multiple projectors need an identical Warp configuration.

To upload or download warp files you can use Projector Toolset or Prospector tool to upload/download the warp grid in the format of an XML file. Alternatively, you can contact the "file endpoint" directly via the curl program or some other tool that supports http upload.

For more information on uploading/downloading Warp files using the Projector Toolset, refer to the Projector Toolset user manual.

For more information on uploading/downloading Warp files using curl or other tools that supports HTTP upload, refer to the Pulse API Reference Guide.

8.4.7 Warping - Latency control in a multi projector setup

Transport latency

The added delay in the image processing chain. The value is the number of lines relative to the output resolution.

Latency

The total time from the first pixel is coming in on an input source, until the first light representing that pixel is visible on the screen. This includes the transport delay. The value is normally given in milliseconds.

Functional description

Every projector in a multi-projector setup will have a different latency. This latency depends on the amount of warp and on the frequency of the projected image. In order to have no visible difference in the overall projected image, the user needs to be able to control the latency of each projector.

The latency value can be read out in the status menu for each individual projector.

How to configure transport delay?

1. Read out and note the latency of each projector in the multi-projector setup. You can find this latency under Transport delay in the status menu for each projector.

Image 8-37

1. Identify the projector with the longest delay.
2. For each projector in the setup, select Installation → Warp in the main menu.

8.5 Blending & masking

About Blending & Masking

Blending is used in multi channel installation to have a seamless transition between the channels. Image blending gives the appearance of a single view, thus achieving realistic immersion for the majority of wide screen applications.

The principle is that the light intensity in the blend zone from each projector will be adjusted individually, so that the rendering on the screen are perceived as from one projector.

Image 8-41

From the start (mask) position, you can blend zone size per edge (left, top, right, bottom). For each edge there will be a drop-off curve for the blend zone.

8.5.1 Blend & Mask

About masking and blending width or height

Offset is used to clip the image on one or multiple sides (masking). This is used to hide parts of the picture should not be shown on the screen. For example: if the source is a Windows PC, you can hide the menu bar using this method.

The larger the Mask value, the more the image is masked (by black bar) at the corresponding side. E.g. Top mask of 100 will blank the top 100 lines.

Height or width is used to create a blending zone with a smooth brightness drop off. This is used to compensate for the double brightness in overlap areas. The value is the size of the blended area in pixels.

How to adjust blend zones?

1. In the main menu, select Installation → Blend and Mask → Blend - Mask.

Image 8-42: Blend and Mask menu, Blend - Mask

The Blend - Mask menu is displayed.

Image 8-43: Blend & Mask menu

1. To enable blending, put the Enable switch to the right. The color of the switch becomes blue when enabled.
2. To project masking lines on the screen, put the Show lines switch to the right. The color of the switch becomes blue when enabled.
3. Determine the start position of the mask (1) for the masking height and width, together with the desired size of the mask (2) to determine the width of the masked area.

When the blending lines are activated, you will get a visual indication of the screen of the installed blending area.

Image 8-44

1 Start position (mask)
2 Blending width

1. Select one of the four starting positions values with the arrow keys and confirm.
2. Use the arrow keys or remote digits to change the value of the mask and confirm.
3. Repeat this process for the desired width/height value.
4. Repeat this process for all other desired sides.

Do not forget to disable the Show lines button after you achieved the desired blend zone.

Example of the use of blending

When projecting an image with 2 or more projectors, there is always an small overlap that should be corrected by using the blending function.

In order to obtain a satisfying result for the Blend function, the overlap / mask zone are recommended to be at least 10% of the picture width.

The basic principle is that the overlap setup in the source shall correspond with the mask width setup for the projector. That means that if the overlap zone for the source is set to 500 pixels, the width of the mask zone the projector also must be set to 500 pixels.

First step is to align the image from the projectors as accurate as possible in a mechanical way, meaning without any optical corrections. At the same time, establish an overlap in the pictures between the two screens.

Then adjust the remaining irregularities by using the shift and warp features in the projectors to obtain the last fine tuning of the alignment.

Enable blending and activate Show lines.

First set the mask width for the right edge of the first projector. Enter a width value equal to the overlap area (width1).

Repeat for the left edge of the second projector.

Adjust the offset to cut the image on each side (masking).

8.5.2 Blend Files

About custom Blend Files

Next to setting your specific Blending configuration in the GUI, you can also upload or download a custom Blend configuration file in png, jpg or tiff format to/from the projector. This is a timesaving option when multiple projectors need an identical blending configuration.

To upload or download Blend configuration files you can use Projector Toolset or upload/download the Blend configuration file in the format of an xml file. Alternatively, you can contact the "file endpoint" directly via the curl program or some other tool that supports http upload.

For more information on uploading/downloading Blend files using the Projector Toolset, refer to the Projector Toolset user manual.

For more information on uploading/downloading Blend files using curl or other tools that supports HTTP upload, refer to the Pulse API Reference Guide.

8.5.3 Basic black level adjustment

About adjusting the black level

The purpose of the black level adjustment is to align the black levels in the overlapped regions with the black levels in the other regions.

This is needed because the black levels will be brighter in the blend zones, since multiple projectors will project on the same screen area.

The size of the black level area is calculated automatically from the blend zones. This is done by using the start position and size of each edge of the blend and adding an additional size of 8 pixels to reduce the effect known as "sea of mirrors".

You can also specify the offsets manually by turning off the automatic calculation. The black level value is adjusted in a 8 bit resolution from 0 to 255.

The following figure shows how this occurs in a side by side configuration without any correction of the black level.

8.5.5 RGB adjustment

About RGB adjustment

The purpose of black level correction is to ensure a uniform black level in multi projector setups. Even when two projectors are of the same type, different projectors will output slightly different colors for black due to minor variations in their optical components. So if the projected image of the projectors overlap, there will be 3 different black levels: one for the zone where only the picture of the left projector (zone 1), one for the Blend zone (zone 2), and one for the zone where there is only the picture of the right projector (zone 3).

Picture Left Picture RightBlend Zone

Pure black image with a vertical gray stripe on the left edge (no text or symbols)

Image 8-56

The black levels for zone 1 and zone 3 are typically corrected by defining a black level mask, which is applied to the image of each projector. This system is already in place but the applied mask is monochrome.

Using the Basic Black Level menu, you can already specify the area of the mask and its contents. But by using the RGB Adjustment page, you can specify the multiplication factors (gains) for the Red, Green and Blue colors separately.

How to perform an RGB adjustment

8.6 Laser illumination

What can be done?

Within a certain percentage, the light output of the light source can be reduced by reducing the laser power. Alternatively, you can enable CLO mode (Constant light output) for a constant light output over a longer period of time.

You can only change the power output when the shutter is opened.

About CLO mode

All light sources naturally decrease their intensity over time. In order to prevent a decreasing output in a multi-projector setup, you can activate CLO mode to make sure that the light output remains constant.

CLO mode will ensure that the projector regulates its illumination power to maintain the same level of output light during the lifetime of the light source. This requires that the light source power is not set to 100% from t start, but to a lower value. The lower this value is set, the longer the projector will be able to maintain the output level.

How to reduce the power

1. In the main menu, select Installation → Illumination → Power.

Image 8-60: Illumination menu, Power

The actual power setting is indicated at the bottom of the Power button.

1. Use the Slider to change the power value.

8.9 3D projection

3D setup

The projector is capable of displaying 3D images and movies in active stereoscopic 3D.

Setup of a 3D installation requires an advanced understanding of 3D systems, both for the projector as well as for the system the signal source originates from. In a 3D setup it is crucial that the projected images are perfectly synchronized through the whole signal path, from the signal source to the picture viewed through the 3D goggles.

Regarding setting up the proper signal source, please refer to the user manual or online help for that graphic card. For example: when using NVIDIA Quadro cards, use the NVIDIA Control Panel to manage your 3D settings.

8.9.1 Active Stereo & Passive Stereo

What is Passive Stereo?

Passive Stereoscopic 3D (also known as "Passive Stereo") is the standard method of creating the illusion of depth in an image, by means of stereopsis for binocular vision.

To present stereoscopic pictures, two images are projected superimposed onto the same screen through polarizing filters or presented on a display with polarized filters. For Digital Cinema, a silver screen is used so that polarization is preserved. On most passive displays every other row of pixels are polarized for one eye or the other. This method is also known as interlacing.

The viewer wears glasses which contain a pair of opposite polarizing filters. As each filter only passes light which is similarly polarized and blocks the opposite polarized light, each eye only sees one of the images, and the effect is achieved.

What is Active Stereo?

Field sequential 3D (also known as active 3D or "Active Stereo") is a technique of displaying stereoscopic 3D images. It works by only presenting the image intended for the left eye while blocking the right eye's view, the presenting the right-eye image while blocking the left eye, and repeating this so rapidly that the interruptions do not interfere with the perceived fusion of the two images into a single 3D image.

This system setup uses liquid crystal shutter glasses (also known as active shutter glasses). Each eye's glass contains a liquid crystal layer which has the property of becoming opaque when voltage is applied, being otherwise transparent. The glasses are controlled by a timing signal that allows the glasses to alternately block one eye, and then the other, in synchronization with the refresh rate of the screen. The timing synchronization to the video equipment may be achieved via a wired signal or via wireless communication, this by using either an infrared or radio frequency (e.g. Bluetooth, DLP link) transmitter.

Projection method used

This projector can only show active 3D images, used in combination with a 3D emitter and active shutter glasses. While it is allowed to connect passive stereo source signals, the image processing of the projector will convert those signals to an active 3D compatible image.

The options on the projector software allow you to fine-tune the 3D settings accordingly to the specifications of the 3D emitter.

If a 3D emitter is used that radiates IR beams, the IR beams may interfere with the IR communication between projector and the RCU. If such interference occurs, connect the RCU to the projector using the remote cable. It is also advised to turn the IR receivers on the projector off to avoid the 3D emitter interference. To turn off the IR receivers, see “Remote control, on/off button”, page 23.

8.9.2 Setup process 3D projection

How to setup 3D projection?

1. Connect the proper source cables to the projector. For more info, see "Connection possibilities", page 102.
2. Set up and connect your 3D emitter to the projector. For more info, refer to the user manual of your 3D emitter.
3. Power on the projector completely.
4. Select the correct stitched source Input in the Source menu. See "Displaying multiple sources: Stitched layouts", page 60.
5. Select the desired Display format. For more info, see "Choosing the desired Display Setup", page 103.
6. Depending on the chosen 3D emitter, correct the 3D setup. For more info, see "3D emitter Setup", page 104.

8.9.3 Connection possibilities

At this moment, the only inputs supporting 3D on the Pulse input boards are the DisplayPort inputs and HDMI input. More inputs may support 3D in a future release.

Connecting with the quad combo input card

There is only one way of projecting Active stereoscopic 3D with the Combo input card, using the following setup:

• Source: Active Stereo (sequential L/R)
- Layout mode: Standard layout (1x1 layout)
• Video Timing: 2560 x 1600 (WQXGA) @120 Hz
• Color depth: 30 bpp
- Connector: DisplayPort 1.2 or HDMI

Connecting with the quad DP 1.2 Input card

You can use one of the following methods. The resulting image will always be an Active Stereo image.

Source	Layout mode	Video cable	Timing /	Fixed configuration?	Color depth
Active Stereo (sequential L/R)	Standard layout (1x12560 layout)	1600 Hz	@120		30 bpp

Passive Stereo (separate L/R)	Standard layout (1x13840 layout)	2160	@60	Hz• Cable 1: left eye, bpp• Cable 2: right eye
Passive Stereo pipe L/R)	(dual2 Column mode layout)	2160	@60	Hz• Cable 1: left eye, bppleft column• Cable 2: left eye,right column• Cable 3: righteye, left column• Cable 4: righteye, right column

8.9.4 Choosing the desired Display Setup

Output modes

The following output modes are available:

• AutoStereo: Automatic mode (2D input = 2D output, 3D input = Active Stereo output).
• Mono: Forces all source signals to 2D output.
• ActiveStereo: Forces all source signals to Active Stereoscopic 3D.

Use the following table as an indicator of what display mode you require.

Source signal AutoStereo Mono ActiveStereo

2D Source Output is a 2D image Output is a 2D image Output is in Active Stereo

Active Stereo source Output is in Active Stereo Output is a 2D image Output is in Active Stereo

Passive Stereo source Output is in Active Stereo Output is a 2D image Output is in Active Stereo

When a different Display Mode is chosen compared to the source signal (e.g. Active Stereo source with Mono output), advanced image processing will make sure you a desirable image will be displayed.

How to select the desired projection method?

1. In the main menu, select Installation → Display Setup.

8.9.5 3D emitter Setup

Why change the 3D setup?

While Barco can provide a 3D emitter and active shutter glasses as options to this projector, you are also free to use a 3D emitter and active shutter glasses of your own choice. Since glasses and emitter can have various specifications compared to the ones Barco can provide, the 3D setup menu allows you to configure the output image to the specifications of your glasses and emitter. The following can be configured:

• Swap Eye: You can choose to invert the stereo Sync output signal (depending on the chosen 3D emitter and glasses).
• Swap frame pair: This setting allows you to correct the frame doubling sequence. If the frame rate of the projected moving 3D content doesn't look smooth, this option may help improve this.
• Dark time: You can select how much dark time the projected image will have between frames. You can choose one of the options between 1000 s and 2500 s.
• Sync Delay: You can increase or decrease the sync delay. The scale goes from -10 000 s to +10 000 s with a step of 100 s.

If a 3D emitter is used that radiates infrared beams (IR beams), the IR beams may interfere with the IR communication between projector and the RCU. If such interference occurs, connect the RCU to the projector using the remote cable. It is also advised to turn the IR receivers on the projector off to avoid the 3D emitter interference. To turn off the IR receivers, see "Remote control, on/off button", page 23.

How to adjust the projector to the 3D emitter?

1. In the main menu, select Installation → 3D Setup.

3D SETUP

9.1 Communication, LAN setup

About a network connection

A network connection can be made via a wired connection or via the optional wireless unit.

9.1.1 Introduction to a Network connection

DHCP

Dynamic host configuration protocol. DHCP is a communications protocol that lets network administrators manage centrally and automate the assignment of IP addresses in an organization's network. Using the Internet Protocol, each machine that can connect to the Internet needs a unique IP address. When an organization sets up its computer users with a connection to the Internet, an IP address must be assigned to each machine. Without DHCP, the IP address must be entered manually at each computer and, if computers move to another location in another part of the network, a new IP address must be entered. DHCP lets a network administrator supervise and distribute IP addresses from a central point and automatically sends a new IP address when a computer is plugged into a different place in the network.

IP

Internet Protocol. The network layer of TCP/IP. Required for communication with the internet.

Subnet mask

A number that is used to identify a subnetwork so that IP addresses can be shared on a local area network.

Default Gateway

A router that serves as an entry point into and exit point out of a network. For example, a local network (LAN) may need a gateway to connect it to a wide area network (WAN) or to the Internet.

MAC address

Media Access Control address. Unique hardware number, used in combination with the IP-address to connect to the network (LAN or WAN).

What should be set up for an Ethernet address?

Two ways can be used to assign an address:

• use the Automatic setting so that an automatic address will be assigned.
- Assign manually an IP address, Net-mask (subnet-mask), (default) gateway address.

- Set the IP-Address field to the desired value. This must NOT be 0.0.0.0 for static IP-Address assignment. The IP address identifies a projector's location on the network in the same way a street address identifies a house on a city block. Just as a street address must identify a unique residence, an IP address must be globally unique and have a uniform format.

• Set the Subnet-Mask as appropriate for the local subnet.
• Set the Default-Gateway to the IP-Address of the local router (MUST be on the local subnet!) on the same network as this projector that is used to forward traffic to destinations beyond the local network. This must not be 0.0.0.0. If there is no router on the projector's local subnet then just set this field to a IP-Address on the subnet.

9.4 DMX

About the ways to control the projector via DMX

DMX signals can be connected to the DMX In port on the communicator interface when using a standard DMX cable equipped with XLR connector. The DMX out can be used to create a chain of DMX devices. One universe can control up to 512 channels.

If you are using a DMX console and other automated lighting products compatible with Art-Net, the Ethernet network can serve as the link for DMX control. All DMX controls can be sent over the Ethernet cable. Multiple universes are possible.

About the DMX menu

DMX Feature	What can be done?
DMX Address	Before a projector can execute DMX commands, a unique address (named DMX address) should be given to the projector.This address can vary from 1 to 512.
DMX Mode T	Two different modes for DMX are available.Basic: A basic configuration where 2 channels are implemented.Extended: A full configuration, spread over 14 channels.For the full mapping of each used channel, refer to the DMX chart in the appendices. See “DMX chart”, page 157.
DMX Monitor	If a DMX device is connected, the settings per channel can be displayed via the Monitor button.

Overview

With the FLEX technology the projector owners can lock the light output to different levels. The locking can be done via 3 different ways:

• Via Projector Toolset when connected via an Ethernet connection with the projector. See Projector Toolset's user guide, chapter "FLEX, light output control".
  • Via the OSD menu of the projector itself
  • Via an SMS message send to a projector equipped with an optional GSM board.

To lock to a specific value a 4 digit code is necessary; These codes can be created by the projector owner using Projector Toolset.

Availability

The Flex brightness function is license protected. This license is already available in UDX 4k32, U32 and W32. To activate the Flex brightness a Flex code is necessary. This Flex code can be requested for free and uploaded via Projector Toolset. For more information about uploading this Flex code, see Projector Toolset's user guide, chapter "FLEX, light output control".

For other models, Flex brightness is an option. You can order and buy a license file. This license file is linked with the projector type and projector serial number. Once you received you license file, upload this file via Projector Toolset to your projector. Once the file is uploaded, the same file has to be used to upload the Flex code.

Flex codes

Once your Flex code is correctly uploaded, the projector creates a number of flex codes, one for each possible maximum light output. These codes are used for rental activities when adapting the light output of the projector.

The created flex codes are only visible in Projector Toolset by the projector owner. To make these visible he will need his license for this typical projector.

9.15.3 Checking the status of the Laser Banks

About failing laser banks

The projector is powered by a laser light source, which has multiple laser banks. The light output and color performance is dependant on the number of active laser banks.

If one or more laser banks have failed of a certain type, you will notice a decreased light input and decrease color performance. But the projector will keep on playing, unless too many banks of a certain color will have failed.

In order to disable a certain laser bank, or calibrate the projector after disabling one or more laser banks, please refer to the Projector Toolset User Manual.

How to check the status of the Laser Banks

About this chapter

This chapter contains general maintenance procedures.

Overview

• Cleaning the lens
  • Cleaning the exterior of the projector

11.1 Cleaning the lens

To minimize the possibility of damage to optical coatings, or scratches to lens surfaces follow the cleaning procedure as described here precisely.

Required tools

• Compressed air.
• Clean Toraysee® cloth or any micro fiber lens cleaning cloth.
• Clean cotton cloth.

Required parts

Lens cleaner (e.g. Carl Zeiss lens cleaner or Purasol® or any water-based lens cleaner)

How to clean the lens?

1. Blow off dust with clean compressed air (or pressurized air). cans
2. Clean with lens cleaner together with a clean lens cleaning cloth to remove the dust and contamination. Use big wipes in one single direction.
   Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.
3. Use a dry lens cleaning cloth to remove left liquid or stripes. Polish with small circles.
4. If there are still fingerprints on the surface, wipe them off with lens cleaner together with a clean lens cleaning cloth. Polish again with a dry one.

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

11.2 Cleaning the exterior of the projector

How to clean the exterior of the projector?

1. Switch off the projector and unplug the projector from the mains power net.
2. Clean the housing of the projector with a damp cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild detergent solution.
