2.2 Safety training to be provided by the installer
WARNING:The installer is responsible that the user is instructed. The user will sign a document to confirm
that the instructions have been received and understood.
Users definition
The Athena is intended for persons who have been instructed and trained by a skilled person (installer or service personnel) to
identify energy sources that may cause injury and to take precautions to avoid unintentional contact with or exposure to those energy
sources.
The skilled person must instruct the user about:
• High intensity light beam. The user must respect the exclusion zone, based on the light beam Hazard Distance (HD).
• Dangerous energy sources inside the projector. The user is not allowed to remove any cover from the projector.
• Small glass parts can leave the projector in the event of lamp explosion. Keep 1 m (40 in.) distance from the air outlet side of
the projector during operation.
• The installation, maintenance or service is for skilled persons only.
• The requirements for a restricted access location and an exclusion zone.
Restricted access location
To protect untrained persons and children, the projector must be installed in a restricted access location. The definition of a
restricted access location is a location for equipment where both of the following paragraphs apply:
• Access can only be gained by skilled persons (installer or service personnel) or persons who have been instructed and trained
by a skilled person. The persons must have been instructed about the reasons for the restriction applied to the location and
about the precautions that shall be taken.
• Access is only possible through the use of the tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority
responsible for the location.
Exclusion zone
The projector radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation. Exposing flammable or
combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material, resulting in a
fire. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an exclusion zone around all external surfaces of the projector whereby no
flammable or combustible materials are present:
• The exclusion zone must not be less than 40 cm (16 in.).
• Loose papers or other objects may not be nearer to the projector than 10 cm (4 in.) on any side.
• Rear exhaust: the exclusion zone on the rear side must not be less than 1 m (40 in.).
To protect untrained users and children against high intensity light beams, the light beam Hazard Distance (HD) shall be taken into
account. See "Light beam Hazard Distance (HD)", page 9.

2. Safety & Environmental Information
2.3 Important safety instructions
To prevent the risk of electrical shock
• Installation according to the local electrical code and regulations by qualified technical personnel only.
• A readily accessible disconnect device must be incorporated externally to the equipment for removal of the power to the pro-
jector cord.
• Warning: High leakage current. Earth connection essential before connecting supply.
• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this projector where persons will walk on the cord.
• Do not operate the projector with a damaged cord or if the projector has been dropped or damaged - until it has been examined
and approved for operation by a qualified service technician.
• Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or contact hot surfaces.
• If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating at least equal to that of the projector should be used. A cord rated
for less amperage than the projector may overheat.
• Never push objects of any kind into this projector through cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short
circuit parts that could result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
• Do not expose this projector to rain or moisture.
• Do not immerse or expose this projector in water or other liquids.
• Do not spill liquid of any kind on this projector.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet, unplug the set and have it checked by qualified service personnel before
resuming operations.
• Do not disassemble this projector, always take it to a trained service person when service or repair work is required.
• Do not use an accessory attachment which is not recommended by the manufacturer.
• Lightning - For added protection for this video product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, remove all power from the projector. This will prevent damage to the projector due to lightning and AC
power-line surges.
To prevent personal injury
• Caution: High pressure lamp may explode if improperly handled. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
• To prevent injury, take note of the weight of the projector. Minimum 4 adult 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.
•Warning: extremely high brightness lamps: This projector uses extremely high brightness lamps. Never attempt to look
directly into the lens or at the lamp. If the projection distance is less than 6 meter, any person needs to be at least 4 meters
away from the projected image. Avoid close range reflection of the projected image on any reflecting surface (such as glass,
metal, …) . When operating the projector, we strongly recommend wearing suitable safety glasses.
• 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.
• It is hazardous to operate without lens or shield. Lenses, shields or ultra violet screens shall be changed if they have become
visibly damaged to such an extent that their effectiveness is impaired. For example by cracks or deep scratches.
•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.
•Mercury Vapor Warnings: Keep the following warnings in mind when using the projector. The lamp used in the projector
contains mercury. In case of a lamp rupture, explosion there will be a mercury vapor emission. In order to minimize the potential
risk of inhaling mercury vapors:
- Ensure the projector is installed only in ventilated rooms.
- Replace the lamp module before the end of its operational life.
- Promptly ventilate the room after a lamp rupture, explosion has occurred, evacuate the room (particularly in case of a preg-
nant woman).
- Seek medical attention if unusual health conditions occur after a lamp rupture, explosion, such as headache, fatigue, short-
ness of breath, chest-tightening coughing or nausea.
•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-8 hour day to be
less than 0,1 micro-watts per square centimeters of effective UV radiation. An evaluation of the workplace is advised to assure
employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding these government guidelines.

2. Safety & Environmental Information
To prevent fire hazard
• Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat. It is necessary to vent hot exhaust air from
console to the outside of the building.
• Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhaust air or on the lamp house.
To prevent projector damage
•Theairfilters of the projector must be cleaned or replaced on a regular basis (a "clean" booth would be monthly-minimum).
Neglecting this could result in disrupting the air flow inside the projector, causing overheating. Overheating may lead to the
projector shutting down during operation.
• The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets.
• In order to ensure that correct airflow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
and safety 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 product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. The
device should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and remove all power
from the projector. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualified service personnel.
• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Loose papers or other objects may not be
nearer to the projector than 10 cm (4") on any side.
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• Proper operation of the projector can only be guaranteed in table mounting. It is not permitted to use the projector in another
position. See installation procedure for correct installation. A ceiling mount will be supported in the future.
•Special care for Laser Beams: 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 DevicesTM in
which case there is a loss of warranty.
• Never place the projector in direct sunlight. Sunlight on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror DevicesTM 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.
• 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.
• Rated maximum ambient temperature, ta= 35°C (95°F).
On servicing
• Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage potentials
and risk of electric shock.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Attempts to alter the factory-set internal controls or to change other control settings not specially discussed in this manual can
lead to permanent damage to the projector and cancellation of the warranty.
• Remove all power from the projector and refer servicing to qualified service technicians under the following conditions:
- When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
- If liquid has been spilled into the equipment.
- If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
- If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust only those controls that are
covered by the operating instructions since improper adjustment of the other controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.
- If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
- If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
• Replacement parts: When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used original Barco replacement
parts or authorized replacement parts which have the same characteristics as the Barco original part. Unauthorized substitu-
tions may result in degraded performance and reliability, fire, electric shock or other hazards. Unauthorized substitutions may
void warranty.
• Safety check: Upon completion of any service or repairs to this projector, ask the service technician to perform safety checks
to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
• Possible explosion hazard: Always keep in mind the caution below:
WARNING:The user is not permitted to perform or attempt any phase of xenon lamp handling or service.
Only trained and qualified technical service personnel are allowed to handle the xenon lamp.
8R5906789 ATHENA 16/12/2016

2. Safety & Environmental Information
CAUTION:Xenon compact arc lamps are highly pressurized. When ignited, the normal operating temperature
of the bulb increases the pressure to a level at which the bulb may explode if not handled in strict accordance
to the manufacturer’s instructions. The bulb is stable at room temperature, but may still explode if dropped or
otherwise mishandled. Whenever the lamp house, containing a xenon lamp, has to be dismantled or whenever
the protective container or cloth has to be removed from the xenon lamp, authorized protective clothing MUST
be worn!
To prevent battery explosion
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly installed.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
• For disposal of used batteries, always consult federal, state, local and provincial hazardous waste disposal rules and regulations
to ensure proper disposal.
2.4 Light beam Hazard Distance (HD)
HD
Light beam Hazard Distance (HD) is the distance from the source at which the intensity or the energy per surface unit
becomes lower than the applicable safety limit. The light beam can thus be considered as dangerous if the operator
is closer from the source than the HD.
Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD
The HD is defined from the projection lens surface towards the position of the lowest projected beam where the irradiance equals
the applicable safety limit. The HD depends on the amount of lumens produced by the projector and the type of lens installed. See
next chapter HD in function of the lens Throw Ratio (TR).
To protect untrained users the installation shall comply with the following installation requirements: light output levels in excess of the
limits shall not be permitted at any point less than 2.0 meters (SH image 2-1) above any surface upon which persons are assumed
to stand or 1 meter (SW image 2-1) below or in lateral separation from any place where such persons are assumed to be. See
image 2-1.

3. Lenses & Lens selection
3. LENSES & LENS SELECTION
About this chapter
This chapter gives an overview of available lenses for your Athena and explains how to select the best suited lens for a specific
situation using the lens calculator. Also, it is explained how to install and remove a lens from the projector Lens Holder and how to
shift, zoom and focus the lens.
CAUTION:Never transport the projector with a Lens mounted in the Lens Holder. Always remove the Lens
before transporting the projector. Neglecting this can damage the Lens Holder and Prism.
CAUTION:Caution when removing or installing the lens! Fragile parts at the inner side of the Lens Holder.
Each time a lens is manipulated (e.g. removed and installed in a projector), it needs to be homed and returned.
Overview
• Lens removal
• Lens shift, zoom & focus
3.1 Lens removal
How to remove a lens from the Lens Holder?
1. Support the lens with one hand while you unlock the lens holder by sliding the lock handle (1) towards the “unlocked” position as
illustrated.
2. Gently pull the lens out of the lens holder, maintaining its coaxial direction.
Caution: Do not accidentally bump with the lens against the electronic boards inside the Lens Holder.

It’s recommended to place the Lens caps of the original Lens packaging, back on both sides of the removed
Lens to protect the optics of the Lens.

3. Lenses & Lens selection
It’s recommended to place the plastic cover of the original projector packaging, back into the Lens opening
to prevent intrusion of dust.
3.2 Lens shift, zoom & focus
Motorized lens adjustment
The Athena is equipped with a motorized lens shift and zoom & focus functionality.
Maximum shift range
The lens can be shifted with respect to the internal optics of the projector (DMD) which results in a shifted image on the screen
(Off-Axis). A 100% shift means that the centre point of the projected image is shifted by half the screen size. In other words, the
centre point of the projected image falls together with the outline of the image in an On-Axis projection. Due to mechanical and
optical limitations the shift range is limited as well.
All lenses have a shift range of 50% up, 50% down, 30% left, and 30% right. This range is valid for all throw ratios. Within these shift
ranges the projector and lens perform excellently. Configuring the projector outside these shift ranges will result in a slight decline
of image quality.

F Field of view.
It’s mechanical possible to shift outside the recommended field of view (±90% UP/DOWN and ±50%
LEFT/RIGHT), but this will result in a decline of image quality depending on the used lens and the zoom
position of the used lens. Furthermore, shifting too much in both directions will result in a blurred image
corner.
How to shift the lens of the Athena ?
1. Use the up and down arrow buttons on the Local Keypad to shift the lens vertically and use the left and right arrow buttons
on the Local Keypad to shift the lens horizontally.
