The optional IR remote uses two AA size, 1.5V alkaline batteries. To replace the
batteries simply turn the remote over and push out the cover using the finger groove,
as shown in (1) Figure 4.1.
Remove and properly discard the old batteries. Insert new batteries in the proper
positive/negative orientation as shown etched in the bottom of the compartment (2).
Replace the cover by inserting the tabbed end into the opening and snapping the
opposite end into place.

The projector uses two identical 100W UHP (Ultra High Pressure) lamps and can be
operated with both lamps ON (Dual Lamp Operation mode) or with one lamp ON
(Single Lamp Operation mode). One of the projector’s main features is that it
automatically switches modes, if possible, to maintain continual operation. It is really
important to be aware of your projector’s status to effectively maintain continuous
operation. Another feature of the projector is that you can replace an expired or faulty
lamp without having to power the projector down or disrupt your current presentation
– this is called “hot-swap”.
For more information on the lamp operation modes and other options in the Lamp
menu, see 3.7 Working with the Lamp.
WHEN SHOULD LAMPS BE REPLACED?
Typically, aging lamps decrease slightly in their intensity. You can check the number
of hours each lamp has been in use by checking Lamp Hours in individual lamp
submenus. From the Lamp menu, you can also set a Lamp Limit and enable the
projector to send a lamp replacement, warning message when it’s powered on.
At anytime during operation, you can check the status of a lamp by checking the
Lamp Strike Status in individual lamp submenus – More, Lamp 1 or More, Lamp 2.
You will see one of six states: “Good”, “Cooling Fan #3 Failed”, “Cooling Fan #5
Failed, “Interlock Tripped”, “Failed to Strike” and “Turned Off Unexpectedly”. A
status of “failed to strike” or “turned off unexpectedly” indicates a failure that requires
further investigation and may or may not be directly related to the lamp.
If you have ruled out the cause being an aged lamp or another component in the
projector, it may indicate that your lamp has prematurely burned out or failed for
some other reason (check status LEDs and/or error codes through RS-232, if
