Physical installation process overview

1. Install the projector in the desired position taking the following into account:

   • Ensure that the physical setup of projector complies with all safety requirements such as the hazard distance restriction zone etc. See safety chapter “High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance”.

   • Projector configuration:

     • In case of a standing installation:

       • Use a solid pedestal to place a single UDX projector on (with or without rigging frame)
       • Use a solid pedestal and UDX rigging frames for stacking the UDX projectors up to maximum 3 units high.

     • In case of a hanging installation:

       • Use the UDX rigging frames to suspend up to maximum 2 stacked UDX projectors (Table Mount or Ceiling Mount).
       • Use a UDX rigging frame to hang one UDX projector in portrait (wall mount)
   

   Note: For detailed instructions on how to use (install, suspend, stack, adjust, ...) the UDX rigging frame see separate documentation of the UDX rigging frame.
   

   Note: Ceiling mount and wall mount of a single UDX projector can be realized without UDX rigging frame but then a 3rd party interface needs to be added between the projector and the surface to attach the projector on.

2. Install the projector in the desired position taking following points into account:

   • Projector configuration. In case of table mount use a solid pedestal. In case of suspended installation use the UDX rigging frame. See chapter “Flight case and rigging frame”.
   • Ensure that the physical setup of projector complies with all safety requirements such as the hazard distance restriction zone etc. See safety chapter “High Brightness precautions: Hazard Distance”.

3. Install the selected projection lens for the application.

   For detailed instructions see “Installation of the projection lens”.

   

   Warning: Some projection lenses, more specific the heavy UST lenses, require a lens support. See chapter “Available lenses”, to know which lenses are subject to a lens support bracket. For installation instructions see chapter “UST lenses”.

4. Connect the projector with the power net.

   See chapter “Connecting the projector with the power net”.

   Ensure that the power net complies with the main power requirements of the projector. See chapter “Installation requirements”.

5. Switch on the projector for the first time.

   See chapter “Power on projector”. Upon first startup the projector boot screen will ask the following:

   • To select the preferred language (default English).
   • To accept the EULA (mandatory)
   • To register the projector. Registration is optional for UDM but recommended. See chapter “Device registration”.

   The following options are possible to control the projector:

   • Using the Pulse Remote Control Unit (RCU)
   • Using the local keypad
   • Using the LCD touch display
   • Using Pulse Prospector

   See UDM user guide, Pulse OSD user guide, and Pulse Prospector user guide.

6. Install the batteries of the Remote Control Unit (RCU). See chapter “Pulse RCU battery installation”.
7. Project an image (e.g., test pattern or video image) and let the projector and projection lens acclimatize.

8. Calibrate the projection lens and potential focus drift.

   • To calibrate the mounted lens, use the lens calibration menu in the Pulse OSD or Pulse Prospector.
   • To calibrate the focus drift, use Pulse Prospector, or Projector Toolset.

9. Alignment of the projected image.

   If needed change the projector orientation (e.g. Front/Table, Front/Ceiling, Rear/Table, Rear Ceiling).

   1. Activate an internal test pattern to focus, zoom and shift the lens until the projected image is sharp and aligned with the screen. Use the following:

      • The focus, zoom and shift buttons of the RCU.
      • The lens adjustment button of the local keypad.
      • The Pulse Prospector software.

   2. Rotate and/or tilt the projector until the projected image is leveled and has a perfect rectangle shape:

      • See chapter “Alignment of a table mounted projector”.
      • See chapter “Alignment of projector in the rigging frame”.

10. Verify and adjust the convergence if required.

    There are two ways of adjusting the convergence:

    1. Mechanical convergence done by a certified technician, for detailed instructions see the service manual.
    2. Electronic convergence, for detailed instructions see the Pulse OSD user guide.
11. Check for the latest projector software package. See the Pulse OSD user guide, or the Pulse Prospector user guide.

12. Safely shutdown the projector after usage.

    See chapter “Power off projector”.
