OPERATION
LAMP ADJUST
Whenever you install a new lamp in the projector
you need to access the Lamp Adjust submenu and
record the lamp serial number in the projector's
memory. You can also set different Lamp submenu
options such as intensity (output) or power required.
These setups can be changed at any time.
NOTE: See 2.2, Installing The Lens for complete
instructions on installing a new lamp in the projec-
tor.
From the Advanced menu, select the "Lamp Adjust" option for access to the Lamp Adjust sub-
menu, where all lamp functions and data appear. Read-only information includes the number of
hours logged on the lamp so far and the serial number
recorded for the installed lamp.
XENON LAMP HOURS shows the number of hours logged on the current lamp. Whenever you
record a new lamp serial number, this value automatically resets to "0", where it begins to log time
for the new lamp. Note: Read-only. This information also appears in the Information menu.
New XENON Lamp Serial No. is the serial number recorded for the current lamp. When you
install a new lamp and enter its serial number, the number will appear here in the Xenon Adjust
menu. Note: Read-only.
Enter a checkmark for LAMP MESSAGE if you want to enable a warning message upon power-
up that the lamp has reached the specified lamp limit and should be replaced. Delete the check-
mark if you do not want to see this warning-instead, when your lamp expires, only the status
information on the back of the projector will provide the warning to replace the lamp.
NOTES: 1) It is recommended that the Lamp Message checkbox remain enabled. 2) When a lamp
warning message appears, press to temporarily cancel the message. The message will continue
to appear upon power-up until you install a new lamp.
Set XENON LAMP LIMIT to the number of hours you expect to log on the current lamp before
replacing it. The recommended limit is 1000 hours. At lower power settings, 2000 hours is pos-
sible.
NOTE: 1) If you change modes over the life of a lamp, the lamp limit you originally expected
may no longer be possible. 2) Turning the lamp on and off reduces lamp life significantly, as do
other factors.
Set which XENON LAMP MODE you want to use in order to control
the light output. Although there are exceptions, in most lamps, the high-
er the light output or power setting, the shorter the life span of the lamp.
