Start up with full white image.
The next menu will be displayed for 30 seconds.
a. Start up with warm up period.
If no action is taken, a white image will be displayed for 20 minutes.
This white image will be shifted on the faceplate of the CRT to avoid a CRT burn in.
During this warm up period, it is possible to interrupt this white image projection by
pressing the EXIT key. The previous menu will be repeated for another 30 seconds
but the remaining time will be indicated.
If EXIT is pressed, the remaining warm up period will be skipped.
During the warm up period, every 30 seconds a text box with the remaining time will
be displayed on the screen for 2 seconds. This text box will be displayed each time
in a different place.
If another key, different from EXIT, is pressed, a text box with following text will be
displayed :
Please use <EXIT> to leave this procedure.
b. Start up without warm up period.
If the EXIT key is pressed, the warm up period will be skipped and the projector is immediately ready for
use.
Warning : skipping this warm up procedure can reduce the initial picture quality of the
projected image.

The BARCOREALITY 812HS can be controlled with
a. The RCU
b. The hardwired RCU (cable not included)
c. The local keyboard
The procedure and results of controlling the projector with either of
these RCU options is essentially the same.
How to use your RCU
a) Point the front of the RCU towards the reflective screen surface
b) Point the front of the RCU towards one of the IR sensors in the
projector.
When using the wireless remote control, make sure you are within
the effective operating distance (30m, 100ft in a straight line). The
remote control unit will not function properly if strong light strikes the
sensor window or if there are obstacles between the remote control
unit and the projector's IR sensor.
c) RCU used in a hardwired configuration.
Plug one end of the remote cable in the connector on the bottom of
the RCU and the second side in the connector in the rear panel of the
BARCODATA 808s SP labelled 'REMOTE'.
The projector's address will be displayed in a 'Text box'. This text box
disappears after a few seconds.
To continue using your RCU, it is necessary to enter the same address
with the digit buttons (address between 0 and 9). For exemple, if the
Adrress Key displays projector address 003, then press the "3" digit
button on the RCU to set the RCU's address to match the projector's
address. Do not press digit 003. This will address the remote to '0'
and control all projectors in the room.
PROJECTOR
ADDRESS
001
Projector Address
a. Hardware set up of the projector address.
Every projector requires an individual address between 0 and 255
which is set with hardware DIP switches inside the projector. To
change that address, contact a BARCO authorized technician.
b. How to control the projector.
The projector's address may be set to any value between 0 and 255.
When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now with:
- the RCU for addresses between 1 and 9.
- computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc. for
addresses between 0 and 255.
Note : A projector will respond to a RCU set to an address of '0'
regardless of what address is set in the projector itself. Address "O"
is therefore a universal address.
c. Using your RCU.
Before using your RCU, it is necessary to enter the projector address
into the RCU (only when that address is between 1 and 9). The
projector with the corresponding address will listen to that specific
RCU.
When address 0, 'zero address' is programmed into the RCU, every
projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by this
RCU.
How to display a projector address?
Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil.

With the digit buttons on the RCU, it is possible to select input sources,
Video, S-Video, RGsB or RGBS, RG3sB or RGB3S.
When a valid and available source is selected, there will be informa-
tion displayed on the screen about that source (if "Text" is on). This
information includes :
- Source number
- Horizontal frequency
- Vertical frequency
When the entry is a non valid source
number, a warning appears on the screen : 'input not available'.
When a valid source number is selected, the projector will display this
source or it will wait on the selected source number until the source
becomes available. A message 'source not available' will be
displayed for a short time.
Analog Picture Controls
The analog picture controls can be adjusted with the RCU. The control
keys are located on the lower right side of the key panel of the RCU
and indicated with the name of the control and an icon.
When an analog picture control is pressed, a text box with bar scale
and the function name of the control, e.g. 'brightness...' appears on
the screen (only if 'TEXT' is ON). The length of the bar scale indicates
the current memorized setting for this source. The bar scale changes
as the + or - buttons of the control are pressed.
Brightness Control
A correct 'brightness' setting is important for good image reproduc-
tion. Adjust the brightness with the + or - button (RCU) until the darkest
parts of the picture appear black.
A bar scale gives a visual indication on the screen of the current
brightness setting while pressing on the above indicated keys. If the
bar scale is not visible on the screen, press 'TEXT' key once and retry
the above indicated keys.

Controlling chained projectors.
Projectors can be controlled individually as well as in a group.
For individual control see previous pages.
For group control of the projectors.
(Input selection and analog picture control)
Program the 'zero address' into any RCU. Therefore, press on the
address key and key in the address ("0") with the numeric keys on
the RCU itself.
Once address '0' is pressed, all projectors will be controlled together
until a new address is entered on the RCU. It is possible to have a
common input selection and a common analog picture control.
Once a new address is entered, only the projector with that specific
address will follow the new instructions.
Note : For group control, all projectors in a control group must be
capable of receiving the IR signal from the controlling RCU at the same
time.
