Physical installation process overview
Installation of the projector in the desired position. Take following points 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”.
- Use a solid pedestal in case of a standing installation.
Use the I600 rigging frames for stacking I600 projector:
- standing installation: maximum stack 3 units high.
- hanging installation: maximum stack 2 units high (Table Mount or Ceiling Mount).
- Use the I600 rigging frame to hang one I600 projector in portrait (wall mount)
Note: For detailed instructions on how to use (install, suspend, stack, adjust, ...) the I600 rigging frame see separate documentation of the I600 rigging frame.Note: Ceiling mount and wall mount of a single I600 projector can be realized without I600 rigging frame but then a 3rd party interface needs to be added between the projector and the surface to attach the projector on.Installation of the selected projection lens for the application. For detailed instructions see “Lens installation”.
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 “ILD UST lenses”.Caution: Install the lens safety cable in case the projector is mounted above people. For detailed instructions see “Lens safety cable installation”. For ordering info see the Barco website.- Installation of the batteries of the Remote Control Unit (RCU). See chapter “Basic remote batteries”.
Connecting the I600 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. Refer to chapter “Installation requirements”.
Switch on the projector for the first time. See chapter “Power On the 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 I600 but recommended. See chapter “Product registration”.
The following options are possible to control the projector:
- Using the remote control unit
- Using the local keypad
- Using Pulse Prospector
See I600 user guide, Pulse OSD user guide, and Pulse Prospector user guide.
- Project an image (e.g., test pattern or video image) and let the projector and projection lens acclimatize.
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.
Alignment of the projected image. If needed change the projector orientation (e.g. Front/Table, Front/Ceiling, Rear/Table, Rear Ceiling).
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.
Rotate and/or tilt the projector until the projected image is leveled and has a perfect rectangle shape.
- Adjust the feed of the projector (see “Alignment of a table mounted projector”) or adjust the rotation of the rigging frame.
Warning: In case a lens support is installed ensure that all lens support brackets are detached from the lens body before adjusting the horizontal and vertical shift. After shift adjustment disable the shift features in the Pulse software and fasten all lens support brackets. See chapter “ILD UST lenses”.- Check for the latest projector software package. See chapter “Software update”.
- Safely shutdown the projector after usage. See chapter “Power Off the projector”.
