Subsystem Fans

Three major areas in the Auditorium Unit are monitored
for operation of the fans. They are; the Media Block, the
Auditorium Unit Enclosure, and the Projector.
Media Block
Two dual-fan exhaust units (A & B) are located at the rear
of the LMT-300 Media Block. These fan units also contain
the back-up battery for the Media Block memory. Do Not
remove both the A & B fans units at the same time.
The Media Block indicator is green when the status of the
Fan units are normal. The indicator will display red when
an error is detected.
Enclosure
The Enclosure (Auditorium Unit) contains two main air
circulation fans. One is located in the Lower (base) area
and the other is located in the Upper area. Both fans are
monitored and their status is shown on the Enclosure
indicator. The indicator will display red when an error is
detected.
Projector
A number of areas in the Projector have fans dedicated to
maintain operating temperatures. Areas having a major
affect on the quality of image presentation or lamp
environment have indicators for those specific areas (see
"Projector Component Fans"). The status of fans in other
projector areas are shown on the Projector indicator. The
indicator will display red when an error is detected.

Projector Component Fans

Peltier (R, G, B)
Peltier devices are used to maintain the optimum operating
temperature of R, G, and B areas of the prism assembly.
The indicator will display red when an error is detected.
Panel (R, G, B Imaging)
Maintaining correct operating temperature in the imaging
area is critical to the quality of presentation. Additional
fans provide air circulation for each of the imaging areas
(R, G, B). The indicator will display red when a Panel fan
error is detected.
Lamp
Maintaining adequate air circulation in the Lamp housing
is critical to realizing the expected lamp life. If lamp
temperature is allowed to rise beyond specification then a
possible lamp explosion can occur. The indicator will
display red when a Lamp fan error is detected.
Board
Adequate air circulation for the Projector control board is
maintained by fans within the Projector subsystem. The
indicator will display red when a Board fan error is
detected.
