LAMP SELECT

“LAMP SELECT” is used to choose from “SINGLE” and “DUAL” modes depending on user’s needs or viewing conditions.

In “SINGLE” mode, the projector may automatically select either lamp from the 2 lamps, or the particular lamp can be specified.

DUAL : Two lamps are used simultaneously.

SINGLE : One of either lamps is used (lamp with shorter operating hours is automatically selected).

LAMP1 : Lamp Unit 1 is always used.

LAMP2 : Lamp Unit 2 is always used.

When one of the above settings is selected, it will take effect after the ENTER button is pressed.

Note • If, in the “SINGLE”, “LAMP1” or “LAMP2” mode, one lamp remains off

or the currently active lamp exceeds 2 000 hours of cumulative operating time (when “HIGH” is selected as the “LAMP POWER” setting), the other lamp will light. If, in the “DUAL” mode, one lamp remains off or the currently active lamp exceeds 2 000 hours of cumulative operating time (when “HIGH” is selected as the “LAMP POWER” setting), the other lamp alone will light.

However, if both lamps remain off or the 2 000 hours of cumulative operating time (when “HIGH” is selected as the “LAMP POWER” setting) are exceeded, the projector will enter the standby mode.

•The colors of the items indicate the status.

Green Current setting

Yellow Current setting (when a lamp fails or fails to light)

Red	Lamp that has failed to
	light
White	Any other status

•If the projector is repeatedly used for short periods of time, the lamps will need to be replaced more frequently.

LAMP RELAY

If using the projector for a continuous period of 24 hours or more, this setting can be used to automatically switch the lamps that are turned on in order to reduce the lamp deterioration that can occur as a result of continuous use.

OFF : This is the standard setting. “LAMP RELAY” is disabled.

00:00 - 23:00

:This can be set in one hour intervals from 00:00 to 23:00.

Note • Only when “DUAL” or “SINGLE” is selected in “LAMP SELECT”, “LAMP

RELAY” is active. If “LAMP1” or

“LAMP2” is selected, “LAMP RELAY” function is not available.

•When “DUAL” is selected in “LAMP SELECT”, only one lamp will light for a 4-hour period after the set time.

•When “SINGLE” is selected in “LAMP SELECT”, the lamp that was off at the set time will light, and then the lamp that was lighted until the set time will turn off.

•The setting time will be the local time. (page 40)

LAMP POWER

The luminance of the projection lamp can be changed depending on user’s needs or the viewing conditions.

HIGH : Set when high brightness is necessary.

LOW : Set when high brightness is not necessary.

Note • When set to “LOW”, it is possible to reduce power consumption, reduce

operating noise and extend lamp service life.

RS-232C

This sets the communication parameters at the serial terminals.

For details on the serial terminals, refer to “Using the serial terminals” (page 52).
