CAUTION FIRE HAZARD

WARNING: DO NOT PLACE FLAMMABLE OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS NEAR 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 10 cm (4") for BARCO Retro Projectors and not less than 40 cm (16") for all other BARCO projectors. Do not cover the projector with any material while the projector is in operation.

Keep flammable and combustible materials away from the projector at all times. 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 excessive moisture. In the event of fire, use sand, CO_2 or 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.

This product complies to standards set by Underwriter's Laboratories, Inc., Canadian Standards Association, and meets all applicable U.S. / Canadian and European

government regulations or directives.

1. Do not place this equipment on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious damage to it.

2. Do not use this equipment near water.

3. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom 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 projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.

1. Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement under and around the projector. Loose papers or other objects may not be nearer to the projector than 4" on any side.

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!

On cleaning

Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

• To keep the cabinet looking brand-new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet.
• 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. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent solution, or thinner.

On repacking

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.

On illumination

In order to obtain the best quality for the projected image, it is essential that the ambient light which is allowed to fall on the screen be kept to an absolute minimum.

When installing the projector and screen, care must be taken to avoid exposure to ambient light directly on the screen. Avoid adverse illumination on the screen from direct sunlight or fluorescent lighting fixtures.

The use of controlled ambient lighting, such as incandescent spot light or a dimmer, is recommended for proper room illumination. Where possible, care should also be taken to ensure that the floors and walls of the room in which the projector is to be installed are non-reflecting, dark surfaces. Brighter surfaces will tend to reflect and diffuse the ambient light and hence reduce the contrast of the projected image on the screen.

Plug one end of the remote cable in the connector on the bottom of the RCU and the second side in the connector in the rear panel of the BARCODATA 808s SP labelled 'REMOTE'.

Projector Address

a. Hardware set up of the projector address.

Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255 which is set with hardware DIP switches inside the projector. To change that address, contact a BARCO authorized technician.

b. How to control the projector.

The projector's address may be set to any value between 0 and 255. When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now with: - the RCU for addresses between 1 and 9.

- computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for addresses between 0 and 255.

Note : A projector will respond to a RCU set to an address of '0' regardless of what address is set in the projector itself. Address "O" is therefore a universal address.

c. Using your RCU.

Before using your RCU, it is necessary to enter the projector address into the RCU (only when that address is between 1 and 9). The projector with the corresponding address will listen to that specific RCU.

When address 0, 'zero address' is programmed into the RCU, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this RCU.

How to display a projector address?

Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.

The projector's address will be displayed in a 'Text box'. This text box disappears after a few seconds.

To continue using your RCU, it is necessary to enter the same address with the digit buttons (address between 0 and 9). For example, if the Adress Key displays projector address 003, then press the "3" digit button on the RCU to set the RCU's address to match the projector's address. Do not press digit 003. This will address the remote to '0' and control all projectors in the room.

How to program an address into the RCU?

Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil and enter the address with the digit buttons. That address can be any digit between 0 and 9.

When programming '0', zero address, the RCU will control a projector regardless of the projector's address. This feature allows multiple projectors with different addresses to be controlled by a single RCU.

With the digit buttons on the RCU, it is possible to select input sources, Video, S-Video, RGsB or RGBS, RG3sB or RGB3S.

When a valid and available source is selected, there will be information displayed on the screen about that source (if "Text" is on). This information includes :

• Source number
• Horizontal frequency
• Vertical frequency

Blank grid paper with uniform squares, no text or symbols present

When the entry is a non valid source number, a warning appears on the screen: 'input not available'.

When a valid source number is selected, the projector will display this source or it will wait on the selected source number until the source

becomes available. A message 'source not available' will be displayed for a short time.

Analog Picture Controls

The analog picture controls can be adjusted with the RCU. The control keys are located on the lower right side of the key panel of the RCU and indicated with the name of the control and an icon.

When an analog picture control is pressed, a text box with bar scale and the function name of the control, e.g. 'brightness...' appears on the screen (only if 'TEXT' is ON). The length of the bar scale indicates the current memorized setting for this source. The bar scale changes as the + or - buttons of the control are pressed.

Brightness Control

A correct 'brightness' setting is important for good image reproduction. Adjust the brightness with the + or - button (RCU) until the darkest parts of the picture appear black.

A bar scale gives a visual indication on the screen of the current brightness setting while pressing on the above indicated keys. If the bar scale is not visible on the screen, press 'TEXT' key once and retry the above indicated keys.

The bar scale increases when pressing on the + button (higher brightness) and decreases when pressing on the - button (lower brightness).

Contrast Control

A correct 'contrast' setting is important for good image reproduction. Adjust the contrast to the level you prefer, according to room lighting conditions. If the Contrast Control is too low, the picture will be too dim. If it is set too high, the picture may be too bright and not sharp. A bar scale gives a visual indication on the screen of the current contrast setting while pressing the + or - buttons (RCU). If the bar scale is not visible on the screen, press 'TEXT' key once and retry the above indicated keys.

The bar scale increases when pressing on the + button (higher contrast) and decreases when pressing on the - button (lower contrast).

Color Saturation Control

Color saturation is only active for Video and S-Video Inputs. This control adjusts the color intensity of the picture. Adjust the color saturation using the + and - buttons (RCU). A bar scale gives a visual indication on the screen of the current color setting while pressing on the above indicated keys. If the bar scale is not visible on the screen, press 'TEXT' key once and retry the above indicated keys. The bar scale increases when pressing on the + button (richer colors) and decreases when pressing the - button (lighter colors).

Tint Control

Tint is only active for Video and S-Video Inputs. The Tint Control is effective only when using the NTSC 4.43 or NTSC 3.58 system. A bar scale gives a visual indication on the screen of the current tint setting while pressing the + or - buttons (RCU). If the bar scale is not visible on the screen, press the 'TEXT' key once and retry the above indicated buttons.

The bar scale increases when pressing on the + button (greener flesh tones) and decreases when pressing the - button (redder flesh tones).

Sharpness Control.

Sharpness control is only active for Video and S-Video Inputs. A bar scale gives a visual indication on the screen of the current sharpness setting while pressing the + or - buttons (RCU). If the bar scale is not visible on the screen, press 'TEXT' key once and retry the above indicated keys.

The bar scale increases when pressing on the + button (sharper picture) and decreases when pressing on the - button (softer picture).

Controlling chained projectors.

Projectors can be controlled individually as well as in a group.

For individual control see previous pages.

For group control of the projectors.

(Input selection and analog picture control)

Program the 'zero address' into any RCU. Therefore, press on the address key and key in the address ("0") with the numeric keys on the RCU itself.

Once address '0' is pressed, all projectors will be controlled together until a new address is entered on the RCU. It is possible to have a common input selection and a common analog picture control.

Once a new address is entered, only the projector with that specific address will follow the new instructions.

Note : For group control, all projectors in a control group must be capable of receiving the IR signal from the controlling RCU at the same time.

START UP OF THE ADJUSTMENT MODE

Adjustment Mode

All picture geometry and convergence adjustments are made while in the 'Adjustment mode'. Press the ADJUST key to enter the 'adjustment mode'.

You are now in the 'Adjustment mode'. The Control disc is used to make menu selections and also vertical and horizontal adjustments. The ENTER and EXIT keys are used to move forward and backward through the menu structure. The ADJUST key can be used to terminate the adjustment mode while any path selection menu is displayed.

When an adjustment menu is displayed on the screen and no action is taken within the first 5 minutes, the projector will automatically reduce the brightness and contrast to a level so that the stationary image cannot damage the tubes.

There are 5 possible paths to follow once in the Adjustment mode. They are :

INSTALLATION - Installation should be selected if the projector has been relocated and/or a different screen size is desired.

When selecting 'Installation', the user or operator will be warned to call a qualified technician to perform the installation procedure (see example of projected warning on the next page)

GUIDED - Guided should be selected if the user intends to perform a complete alignment of the projected image. All of the necessary geometry and convergence adjustments are made in a predetermined sequence.

RANDOM ACCESS - Random Access should be selected if the user intends to make only a few adjustments.

SERVICE - Service should be selected if the user intends to delete blocks, change password, select service adjustments or get set-up information.

IRIS - To start up the IRIS Auto-Convergence unit.

While in Guided or Random Access adjustment Modes, the user may use an external source, an internally generated genlocked pattern or an internally generated multifrequency cross hatch pattern as a setup pattern.

Warning during the start up of the installation mode.

Some items in the Adjustment mode are password protected. While selecting such an item, the projector asks you to enter your password. (Password protection is only available when the password DIP switch on the controller module is in the ON position. Contact a BARCO authorized technician when no password is requested during the adjustment procedure and password protection is desired.) Your password contains 4 digits.

Enter the digits with the numeric keys on the RCU.

Example : 2 3 1 9

For each digit entered, a 'X' appears on the screen under the displayed text 'enter password'.

When your password is correct, you gain access to the 'Adjustment item'. When the entered password is wrong, The message 'Wrong password !!!' will be displayed. The projector stays on the previous selected item.

Factory programmed password :

ADJUSTMENT BLOCKS AND SOURCE NUMBERS 90 - 99

Adjustment Blocks (memory blocks)

As the projector is digitally controlled, all geometry and convergence adjustments are stored in the projector's memory as numeric values. These numeric values are used to control digital potentiometers which in turn, control the projector. Each source connected to the projector has a unique set of adjustment data which is automatically downloaded into the projector's digital potentiometers once the source has been selected. This set of adjustment data is referred to as an "adjustment block".

An adjustment table is automatically created for a source when the source is first connected to the projector and the Adjustment mode is entered. If other sources have already been connected to the projector and geometry and convergence adjustments have been performed on these sources, the projector will use Linear Digital Interpolation to create a new block for the new source. This block will provide an initial set of adjustments for the new source that have been calculated by the projector from "previous experience".

The projector's memory has the capacity to store 32 adjustment blocks. The adjustment block consists of two parts, the block header and the data representing the values for all adjustments (eg. Convergence and Geometry) in the projector for the source the block corresponds to. The block header contains the basic characteristics of the source and the projector configuration used to display the source.

Block Header example of block header

Block Number 01

Source Number 01

Horizontal Frequency 15.6 kHz

Vertical Frequency 50 Hz

Input Type video

Scan Switch Configuration Front/Ceiling

The data representing the various adjustments for the source follows the block header.

Source numbers 90 - 99

Source numbers 90 - 99 do not correspond to physical inputs to the projector or RCVDS. They are used to assign an additional adjustment block to a source. This additional adjustment block may contain different geometry and convergence settings, sync fast/slow positions and enhanced blue on/off settings. The relationship between source numbers 0 - 9 and 90 - 99 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 and 91 - 95 (stand-alone projector) is shown in the diagram below.

graph TD
    A["source input 0"] --> B["source number 0 — Block header A"]

    J["source input 9"] --> K["source number 9 — Block header J"]
    J --> L["source number 99 — Block header J, different analog settings"]

The alternate adjustment block for sources 0 - 9 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 (stand-alone projector) is activated by selecting the corresponding source number 0 - 9 (projector with RCVDS) or 1 - 5 (stand-alone projector). Once this source number is selected, the alternate block of adjustment data is in use and may be modified via the adjust mode of the projector. The alternate adjustment block is automatically stored.

Follow the steps below to create a second adjustment block for a source between 0 and 9.

1. Select the source between 0 and 9 that the second adjustment block is to be created for.

2. Select the corresponding source number between 90 and 99. The adjustment block for the source number between 0 and 9 is copied to the corresponding source number between 90 and 99.

3. Enter the adjust mode and make any desired changes (geometry, convergence, sync fast/slow, enhanced blue on/off) to the second adjustment block.
4. Exit the adjust mode.

Note : the above also applies to source number 1 - 5 and 91 - 95 of a stand alone projector (no RCVDS)
