1. About this manual
1. ABOUT THIS MANUAL
1.1 Objective
This manual is dedicated to the Barco MGP LCD projector and describes the way the projector should be
operated and the use of the software menus .
In the practice the MGP is to be implemented in a total medical visualization system . For this reason a chapter
is inserted giving a brief introduction to medical systems and in particular the Barco’s DICOM THEATRE®.
The aim of the chapter being only the illustration of the role to be played by the projector in such a system,
and that way trying to give a better image of the use of some parameters within the menustructure.
For more details about the system refer to the system manual.

• Batteries
3.1 Safety warnings
WARNING:Before installing the projector, read first the safety instructions in the safety manual (R5975258)
delivered with the projector.
Insure that the projector is installed in an easy to evacuate room in case of a lamp explosion.
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 pregnant
woman).
• Seek medical attention if unusual health conditions occur after a lamp rupture, explosion, such as headache, fatigue, shortness
of breath, chest-tightening coughing or nausea.
3.2 Installation guidelines
Ambient temperature check
Careful consideration of things such as image size, ambient light level, projector placement and type of screen to use are critical to
the optimum use of the projection system.
Max. ambient temperature : 40 °C or 104 °F
Min. ambient temperature : 0 °C or 32 °F
The projector will not operate if ambient air temperature falls outside this range (0°C- 40°C or 32°F-104°F).
Environment
Do not install the projection system in a site near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or humidity. Be aware that room heat rises to the ceiling; check that temperature near the installation site is not
excessive
CAUTION:Harmful Environmental Contamination Precaution
Environment condition check
A projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures the free flow of clean air into the projectors ventilation inlets as well
as free flow at the ventilation outlets. The installation must also allow easy access to the consumable parts ( dustfilters, lamps, ...)
For installations in environments where the projector is subject to airborne contaminants such as that produced by smoke machines
or similar (these deposit a thin layer of greasy residue upon the projectors internal optics and imaging electronic surfaces, degrading
performance), then it is highly advisable and desirable to have this contamination removed prior to it reaching the projectors clean
air supply. Devices or structures to extract or shield contaminated air well away from the projector are a prerequisite, if this is not
a feasible solution then measures to relocate the projector to a clean air environment should be considered. Make sure that the
projector never runs with dirty dustfilters as this will dramatically reduce the lifetime of the consumables. It is advised to clean the
dustfilters on a regular basis and to replace them at any lamp change. Barco reserves itself the right to refuse warranty replacement
of consumables if they have been used in a projector with dirty airfilters. Only use the manufactures recommended cleaning kit which
R5976741 MGP 15 MEDICAL GRADE PROJECTOR 28/04/2004 11

3. Installation Guidelines
has been specifically designed for cleaning optical parts, never use industrial strength cleaners on a projectors optics as these will
degrade optical coatings and damage sensitive optoelectronics .
Failure to take suitable precautions to protect the projector from the effects of persistent and prolonged air contaminants will culmi-
nate in extensive and irreversible ingrained optical damage. At this stage cleaning of the internal optical units will be non-effective
and impracticable. Damage of this nature is under no circumstances covered under the manufactures warranty and may deem the
warranty null and void. In such a case the client shall be held solely responsible for all costs incurred during any repair. It is the
clients responsibility to ensure at all times that the projector is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne particles in the
environment of the projector. The manufacture reserves the right to refuse warranty repair if a projector has been subject to wantful
neglect, abandon or improper use.
What about ambient light ?
The ambient light level of any room is made up of direct or indirect sunlight and the light fixtures in the room. The amountofambient
light will determine how bright the image will appear. So, avoid direct light on the screen. Windows that face the screen should be
covered by opaque drapery while the set is being viewed. It is desirable to install the projection system in a room whose walls and
floor are of non-reflecting material. The use of recessed ceiling lights and a method of dimming those lights to an acceptable level
is also important. Too much ambient light will ‘wash out’ of the projected image. This appears as less contrast between the darkest
and lightest parts of the image. With bigger screens, the ‘wash out’ becomes more important. As a general rule, darken the room to
the point where there is just sufficient light to read or write comfortably. Spot lighting is desirable for illuminating small areas so that
interference with the screen is minimal.
Which screen type ?
There are two major categories of screens used for projection equipment. Those used for front projected images and those for rear
projection applications. Screens are rated by how much light they reflect (or transmit in the case of rear projection systems) given a
determined amount of light projected toward them. The ‘GAIN’ of a screen is the term used. Front and rear screens are both rated
in terms of gain. The gain of screens range from a white matte screen with a gain of 1 (x1) to a brushed aluminized screen with a
gain of 10 (x10) or more. The choice between higher and lower gain screens is largely a matter of personal preference and another
consideration called the Viewing angle. In considering the type of screen to choose, determine where the viewers will be located
and go for the highest gain screen possible. A high gain screen will provide a brighter picture but reduce the viewing angle. For
more information about screens, contact your local screen supplier.
Image size
The projector is designed for projecting an image size with a screenwidth from 1.00m (3.3ft) to 6.00m (19.7ft) with an aspect ratio of
4to3.
3.3 Projector configurations
The different configurations
The MGP can be installed in either a single or dual projector configuration..
The MGP projector can be operated in either Portrait or Landscape mode.
