1. Safety
To prevent personal injury
• Caution: High pressure lamp may explode if improperly handled. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. The customer
should never attempt to disassemble the lamp casing or to dispose of the lamp casing other than by returning it to Barco.
• To prevent injury and physical damage, always read this manual and all labels on the system before inserting the lamp casing,
connecting to the wall outlet or adjusting the projector.
• To prevent injury, take note of the weight of the projector. Minimum 4 persons are needed to carry the projector.
• To prevent injury, ensure that the lens and all cover plates 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.
• Before attempting to remove any of the projector’s covers, you must turn off the projector and disconnect from the wall outlet.
• When performing setup work to a ceiling mounted projector, to prevent injury caused by falling objects or the system, set out
a keep out area.
• Consult a professional structural engineer prior to suspending the projector from a structure not intended for that use. Always
ensure that the working load limit of the structure can handle the load of the projector.
• Never stack more than two (2) FLM projectors in a hanging configuration (truss) and never stack more than three (3) FLM
projectors in a base stand configuration (table mount).
• 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 projector side. In case the power input at the projec
tor side is not
accessible (e.g. ceiling 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.
• 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.
• When mounting the projector to the ceiling or to a rigging system, always mount security chains.
• Warning: Protection from ultraviolet radiation: Do not look directly in the light beam. The lamp contained in this product is
an intense source of light and heat. One component of the light emitted from this lamp is ultraviolet light. Potential eye and skin
hazards are present when the lamp is energized due to ultraviolet radiation. Avoid unnecessary exposure. Protect yourself and
your employees by making them aware of the hazards and how to protect themselves. Protecting the skin can be accomplished
by wearing tightly woven garments and gloves. Protecting the eyes from UV can be accomplished by wearing safety glasses
that are designed to provide UV protection. In addition to the UV, the visible light from the lamp is intense and should also be
considered when choosing protective eye wear.
• Exposure to UV radiation: Some medications are known to make individuals extra sensitive to UV radiation. The American
Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) recommends occupational UV exposure for an-8hour day to be
less than 0.1 microwatts per square centimeters of effective UV radiati
on. An evaluation of the workplace is advised to assure
employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding these government guidelines.
To prevent projector damage
• If the Air Filters are not regularly replaced, the air flow inside the projector could be disrupted, causing overheating. Overheating
may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.
• In order to ensure that correct airfl ow is maintained, and that the projector complies with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
requirements, it should always be operated with all of it’s 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 pr
oduct 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.
• 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 10 cm (4") on any side.
• The projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and unimpeded evacuation
of the hot air exhausted from its cooling system. Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air.
Leave at least a free safety area of 1 meter (40”) at the rear of the projector.
• Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and unplug the mains
supply immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service technicians.
• Consult a professional structural engineer prior
to suspending the ceiling mount from a structure not intended for that use.
Always ensure the working load limit of the structure supporting the projector.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• 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
TM
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 clot
h 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. Do not use a damp cloth, detergent
solution, or thinner.
