Lamp Installation
Warning
IMPORTANT: Before opening the box contain-
ing the Xenon bulb, note the following pre-
cautions:
TheXenonbulbcontainsgasunderpressure.
Care should be taken in handling the bulb to
avoidpersonalinjury.
Wear protective clothing such as gloves, a
long-sleeved shirt and face and eye covering
to protect against flying glass in the event of bulb
breakage.
Handle the bulb only by the ends. Natural
skin oils from hands may damage the quartz
envelope.
Always allow the bulb to cool before handling.
Whennecessary, clean the bulb with ordinary
rubbingalcohol(onlywhenbulbiscool).
Place the bulb on soft, secure surfaces away
fromtableedges.
Never operate the projector or bulb with the
lamp cover off. Do not permit light from the bulb
to fall on skin or clothing. The light from the Xenon
bulb is rich in ultraviolet rays similar to direct sun
rays and can burn skin and bleach clothing. Do
not look at the bulb directly while it is on. The
light emerging from the projector lens is safe as
longas common sense is exercised.

2. Place them in the order to be projected.
3. Turneachslide up-side-down.
4. Using a felt pen, write a slide number on the right
uppercornerofeachslide.
5. Put each slide in the slide compartment in such a way
that the number is seen at the right upper corner of
each slide.
Turnyourslide around (flip it over180°)to orient the slide
forproperviewing. The slide number isnowat the left

Installing & Removing the Slide Tray
Installing the
Slide Tray
Remo ing the
Slide Tray
Match the zero-position of the slide tray with the
projector’s slide gate to easiliy install the slide tray.
When the tray is properly installed, it is “locked”to the
projector.
If the slide tray cannot be installed firmly on the projector,
check the bottom of the tray. The slide holding plate might
be fastened with a latch. Unfasten the latch and try to
install the slide tray again.
Toremovetheslidetray,followtheaboveprocedure,
matching the slide tray zero-position with the slide gate.
Ifyoupushtheforwardorreversebuttonrepeatedly,the
slide tray will rotate rapidly, automatically stopping at the
zero-position. In this position, the tray should slide off
easily.
If the slide tray jams or cannot be removed with ease, do
not force it. The slide tray can be released by pushing the
tray lock release lever. This lever can also be used to
remove the slide tray in case of an emergency.

Determining
Projected
Image Position
Turn the source select switch to “2.”Connect the power
cord 1 to source-1 and to the wall outlet. Connect power
cord 2 to source-2 and to the “out”connector of the
dissolvecontroller. Use the samepowersupply for
source-2asthatof dissolve controller.
Now, connect the dissolve cord fromthedissolvecontrol-
ler to either controller in-1 for an AVL or Kodak controller,
ortocontroller in-2foraDatatoncontroller.
Next, turn the power switch to ON (dissolve shutter is
initialized) and the lamp switch to ON. The LED will light.
Advancetheslidetraybypressingtheforward/reverse
switch. In the case of a 3-projector multi-image show
using a set-up slide in each projector (e.g. AMI),turnON
theset-upswitch ofprojector “B.”This will be the basis for
positioningthe image. Open the dissolve shutter and
adjust the position of the image vertically and horizontally
bymeans of shift-1, shift-2 and the leveling feet.
After the image size has been determined, adjust the
image focus. Keep showing basic projector “B”and turn
the set-up switch of projector “A”ON. Adjust projector “A”
inthesamemanneras stated above and turn its set-up
switchto OFF. Overlap picture“A”on picture “B.”Then
adjustprojectors“B”and“C”inthesame manner.
Finally turn the set-up switch of projectors “A”, “B”and “C”
to ON to show the slide images of all three projectors and
confirmhowthey areoverlapped.
Aftertheoverlappinghasbeenconfirmed,turntheset-up
switches of projectors “A”, “B”, and ”C”to OFF. Then
return the slide tray to the “starting point.”
Tostartprojection,turn theAVL/Datatondissolve controller
