Power Source
Interruptions The 5000 Series of projector operation is based on a computer system, not unlik e y our
desktop computer. Since computer systems are very sensitive to variations in voltage
supplied by the AC power source. Over-voltage, under-voltage and transients (or spikes) can
erase data from memory or even cause components to fail. To protect against these types of
problems, power cables should be properly grounded and one or both of the following
methods should be employed;
Place the system on a dedicated power circuit. Do not allow the system to share a circuit with
one of the following:
Copier machines Air Conditioners Power Tools Teletype machines Any other
motorized equipment
Power
Protection
Devices
A variety of devices are available that protect against power problems, such as power
surges, transients, and power failures. The following equipment can provide some lev el of
protection;
Surge Protectors Line Conditioners Un-interruptible Power Supply (UPS). A 1.5KWA
UPS minimum recommended.
Warning! Cable
Connections To avoid damage to the projector, power “off” the projector and disconnect t he m ain AC line
cord before you connect or disconnect the IR receiver(s) or any other peripheral.
Ceiling Mount
Precautions In a ceiling mount application, the strength and rigidity of the ceili ng are very important. The
location should be carefully checked beforehand to determine that the installation will safely
support the weight of the projector.

NOTE: AmPro Corporation is not responsible for injury or damage caused by an improperly

installed projector.

Lamp Module
Warnings Be sure the lamp and its holder are cooled before changing lamp or injury to personnel
will occur.
The lamp is under great pressure at all times and may explode. To reduce the risk of
personal injury and/or property damage, when servicing the projector lamp wear safety
glasses and allow the lamp to cool completely.
Be careful not to touch the exposed surface of the lamp itself. This could impair lamp
performance and shorten lamp life.
Lamp Module
Disposal The lamp inside the lamp module is under pressure. Do not incinerate. Eye protection should
be worn when working with the lamp to avoid injury from metal particles.
Lens Cleaning To avoid the risk of scratching the lens, only clean the lens if absolutely required. A small
amount of dust on the lens will have very little effect on the picture quality. If the lens must be
cleaned, use a dry, soft optical quality cloth. Rub very gently in a circular motion.
General Notes All safety and operating instructions should be read before the project or is operated.
The exterior of the projector may be kept in good condition by wiping it with a clean, dry,
soft cloth.
For general safety, the projector should be cleaned internally onl y by an aut hori z ed
AmPro service technician.
Do not place magnetic equipment on or near the projector.
Secure service any time the projector is damaged or fails. An obvious change in
performance may also indicate a need for service.
