10.3 Power Off the projector

How to power off the projector

  1. Use the standby button, or the Power On button on the remote control, to switch off the projector.

    The projector will switch to READY mode first in order to run through a cool down phase.

  2. If ECO Standby mode is enabled in the service menu (refer to the section "GUI - system settings/Standby ECO", in User Guide) the projector will automatically go to ECO standby mode after a time-out (default 15 minutes).
Note: Some actions (like applying a grey test pattern) are done during the two minutes of the cool down phase. This is done in order to minimize the potential effect of burn-in and increase the projector lifetime.
Caution: Never switch off the projector by means of unplugging the mains cord or by cutting down the mains power.
Note: Barco advises to keep the projector always powered and use the ECO mode for low power consumption.
How to unplug the projector
  1. Follow the procedure above to Switch Off the projector.
  2. Wait at least 2 minutes prior to unplug the projector by removing the power cord from the AC outlet.
Caution: It is very important to wait few minutes before unplugging the power cord. If the cool down phase is not adhered, projector lifetime could be degraded.
