Connection and operating information
Receiving the equipment
After receipt, check that the unit is in good condition. When necessary, contact the
forwarding agent.
Delivery arrangement
The supply consists of:
EX-100D/1 electronic power supply
metal brackets for vertical mounting
metal brackets for horizontal mounting
auxiliary connector
carrying handles
installation and operation manual
warranty card.
Storage
If the unit is stored before installation, check that it is kept dry and cannot come into
contact with water in any form. Do not expose the unit to the sun rays or other sources
of heat.
Package removing and handling
Remove the packing and keep it in case of future transportation needs.
Carefully lift the unit by means of its handles. Avoid any shock when moving.
Installation - environment
The performance of the EX-100D/1 electronic power supply
is guaranteed for a temperature range variable between -5°C
and +45°C. Check that the place where the equipment is to

Caution: do not install the unit in areas with risk of explosion.
Important note: The electronic power supply must not be used without
a proper earth connection. The rst connection to be performed must
be the earth (ground) to be connected to the terminal marked PE.
The unit has no main breaker to cut off the mains.
Caution: dangerous voltage inside the power supply. Disconnect the unit
from the mains before checking the internal components.
Prevent water, liquids in general and/or foreign objects from getting in-
side the appliance (do not open the unit, contact IREM servicing centre!).
Installation must be carried out by skilled personnel only.
This power supply must be installed inside a grounded cabinet provided
with a circuit breaker duly rated.
Important note: the unit is tted with internal fuses.
To avoid the intervention of the thermal protection, be sure that a 20
mm free space is left on the left side (vertical mounting) or on the upper
side (horizontal mounting).
If the plant is provided with a residual current breaker having a tripping
value of 30mA, this breaker could trip when switching on the power
supply. This does not normally mean a failure, but is due to the capac-
itors of the EMI lter. Switch on the residual current breaker again to
alleviate the problem.
The power supply has been intended for installation in controlled EMC
environment (emissions according to the EN55103-1 standard, environ-
ment e4). Non-residential use.

The connection must be carried out in compliance with the current safety stan-
dards. For a correct operation of the unit, please strictly follow these recom-
mendations:
- the mains voltage has to be within the two operating limits i.e.: 185-265V, 50/60Hz
(L,N,PE or 1Ph,2Ph,PE) withstanding a line current of 22 A.
- the earth installation must comply with current standards
- the output cables must have a section suitable to the lamp current. The cables must
also be suitable for a negligible voltage drop.
During connection pay attention to the lamp polarity.
Important note: the ground connection of the power supply must be equipotential
with respect to the ground connection of the lamphouse. To do this, perform a
connection between the ground (PE) of the power supply and the ground of the
lamphouse.
Connecting input/output cables
Connect the input/output cables to the relevant terminal board.

MAN02774E/1
Thanks to the DSP processor control some safety functions, related to the power supply
and the lamp connected to it, have been improved.
A password (125 ) protects the operating parameters of the power supply. This pass-
word may be customized by the user. If forgotten, please contact IREM After-Sales
dept. to “unlock” the unit through a passe-partout password.
The max. power is one of the parameters that can be set now. During the operation,
the power supply checks that the delivered power is not exceeding the preset value.
When exceeding, it reduces the delivered current down to a power (voltage by current)
equal or lower than the preset limit.
If the preset power value is referred to the lamp in use, an automatic protection of the
max. power applied to the lamp will be obtained. The default value (3400W) aims at
protecting the power supply.
Moreover, the possibility to set different operating modes permits an optimum use of
the power supply avoiding incorrect use.
The operation modes are exclusive i.e. when a mode has been entered, the others will
be automatically ignored (i.e. if the RS232 mode has been entered, then possible com-
mands from synoptic panel or from 0-10V analogue input will be automatically ignored).
Enter the password to modify the operation modes.
The operation modes are: manual from synoptic panel, manual from remote control,
through serial line and through 0-10V analogue input.
The two hour meters (total and partial operating hours of the lamp) have been improved
in order to facilitate the check of the lamp useful life.
A remote contact (JP/2, pins 11-12) activates the stand-by mode. Under this mode
the delivered current corresponds to the value set in “input parameters”. This mode is
useful during the projection timeout when the lamp must stay on. This contact can be
activated under any operation mode.

Directions for use
Start-up
- Be sure the emergency terminals 5-6 on JP/2 are shorted through a wire if there
is no emergency push button. Otherwise the power supply cannot operate and the
following message will be displayed on the synoptic panel:
- If the switching on of the unit has to be performed remotely , insert a switch or two
N.O. dry relay contacts between terminals 3 and 4 on JP/2 (remote ON-OFF)
- Before connecting the unit, be sure that the input voltage corresponds to the one
shown on the data plate.
- The power supply must be fed for at least 10 seconds before starting the normal
operation.
Getting started
- Be sure the unit has been correctly connected to the mains supply and to the lamp
- Switch on the unit.
- Enter the lamp parameters (according to the lamp type). Otherwise the default
parameters (i.e. the factory setting) will be ON.
- Enter the operation mode. Otherwise the default mode (i.e. the factory setting) will
be ON.
- Strike the lamp according to the preset operation mode.
