601–0442 BALDER 13/09/2017 5

1. Safety
To prevent fire hazard
• Barco projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regulations. This projector radiates
heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing
flammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material,
resultinginafire. 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.
• Do not place flammable or combustible materials near the projector!
• For the Balder projector the exclusion zone on the lens side within the light beam must be at least 1,0m.
• Caution! Hot air is exhausted from the rear vent. Do not place objects that are sensitive to heat nearer than 100 cm (40”) to
the exhaust vent.
• Slots and openings in this equipment are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the projector and to protect it
from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered.
• The openings should never be blocked by placing the projector too close to walls, or other similar surface. Allow for sufficient
distance to walls and ceilings to avoid overheating. Minimum safety distance to the exhaust area of the unit must not be less
than 100 cm (40”) and to the intake area, not less than 50 cm (20”).
• This projector should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register.
• This projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.
• Do not cover the projector or the lens with any material while the projector is in operation. Keep flammable and combustible
materials away from the projector at all times.
• Mount the projector in a well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Always allow ample airflow
through the projector.
• Never expose the projector to rain or moisture. In the event of fire, use sand, CO2 or dry powder fire extinguishers.
• Never use water on an electrical fire.
• Always have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on genuine Barco re-
placement parts. Never use non-Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of this projector.
• Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid heat buildup.
• Let the projector cool down completely before storing. Remove cord from the projector when storing.
To prevent projector damage
• To ensure correct airflow is maintained the projector should only be operated when all of its covers in place.
• Always remove lens cap before switching on the projector. If the lens cap is not removed, it may melt due to the high energy
light emitted through the lens. Melting the lens cap may permanently damage the surface of the projection lens
• Only connect the projector to signal sources and voltages as described in the technical specification. Connecting to unspecified
signal sources or voltages may lead to malfunction and permanent damage of the unit.
• To ensure correct airflow is maintained, it should only be operated when all of its covers are in place.
• The projector must always be installed in a manner which ensures free flow of air into its air inlets and unimpeded evacuation
of the hot air from its cooling system.
• 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 unplug the mains supply immediately. Do not
operate the projector again until it has been checked by Barco authorized service personnel.
• Do not block the projector cooling fans or free air movement around the projector. Minimum safety distance to the exhaust area
of the unit must not be less than 100 cm (40”) and to the intake area, not less than 50 cm (20”).
• Do not use this equipment near water.
• Do not operate the projector outside its temperature and humidity specifications as this may result in overheating and malfunc-
tion.
• Never place the projector in direct sun light. Sun light on the lens can severely damage the Digital Mirror Devices™ 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.
• Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning. Never use strong solvents, such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet.
Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent solution.
• 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.

2.3 Replace a lens
Lens lever
The Balder lens mount and lens lever is designed to prevent damage to the lens board while providing an easy and stable lens
change procedure.
The lens lever, located at the bottom of the lens mount (ref. ) slides between two positions, far left (default position — unlocked)
and far right (locked).
Always activate the projector shutter before attempting to remove or install a lens.
To do this, press the shutter button on the keypad, or shutter Close on the remote, to activate the shutter. The
keypad button will illuminate red when the shutter is activated.
Press the shutter button again, or shutter Open on the remote, to deactivate the shutter and resume normal
operation. The keypad button will illuminate white when the shutter is deactivated.

2.4 Lens shift
General
Use the Remote control or the keypad on the Projector to adjust the lens shift mechanism.
The lenses can be shifted vertically and horizontally to facilitate precise image positioning in single and multiple projector systems.
The projector allows for horizontal and vertical shift in both directions. Always place the projector perpendicular to the screen, and
use the lens shift to align the picture.
If not possible to align the projector perpendicular to the screen, due to environmemt of other, see chapter "Warp", page 42
Indexing
The position (index) iris and shift (horizontal and vertical) can be read out and set. This allows for dynamic control of these functions
from an external control system.
Indexing of zoom and focus are supported on lens ID EN6x (EN61) range
2.5 Locking the lens position
About
The mechanically lens lock is particularly important in moving platform applications in order to avoid that the lens comes out of
position during operation. See the procedure explained below to perform this.
WARNING:This procedure must be performed ONLY by Barco trained service personnel. Opening the unit
may cause a risk of electrical shock, and exposure to high intensity laser beam.
See also the Safety chapter in this manual.
CAUTION:It is of great importance to disable the Lens Shift function when the mechanically lens lock is
performed. If not, the shift mechanism will be possible destructed if lens shift accidentally is performed when
the mechanism is mechanically locked.
1. Adjust the lens shift by the remote or keypad, to the desired position.
2. Disable the Lens Shift function by entering the menu Home/System Settings/Service/Lens Features, and disable the Horizontal
and Vertical lens shift by toggling the switches in the menu.

3. Remove the lens from the Projector.
4. Unscrew the 14 screws indicated in the illustration below.
