Projector configuration process overview
5.1 Prerequisites
Overview
Prerequisites may vary depending on the projector model to install. The list of prerequisites provided here is
indicative. For more information on each prerequisite, please consult the installation manual of the projector.
List of prerequisites
The following prerequisites must be met before you start configuring the projector:
•
The projector must be physically installed as written in the installation manual of this projector.
•
Make sure the projector is connected to the power net via the mains or via a UPS.
•
The appropriate lens must be installed in the projector lens holder, with or without lens adapter (depending
on the projector type).
•
Install optional peripherals, systems and devices (e.g. the exhaust adapter or the HDDs of the ICMP-X).
5.2 Process overview
This high level overview briefly describes all process stages that need to be done in a chronological
order to configure the projector in a correct way using the Web Communicator. This overview does
not include the physical installation process. For that refer to the installation manual of the projector.
Projector configuration process
1.
Check if all prerequisites are fulfilled. For more info see chapter "Prerequisites", page 58.
2.
Switch on the projector.
3.
Auditorium name and network configuration. Fill in network configuration in order to interact properly
with the projector via local network, and give a relevant auditorium name to easily identify it. Network
configuration could be adjusted manually, or automatically via DHCP server. For more information
concerning these settings see chapter "Network configuration", page 256.
4.
Load a clone package corresponding to the projector type and related to the chosen configuration (e.g.
clone package is different if the projector is equipped with an ICMP-X or an ICP-D). See chapter "Backup
and restore", page 301.
5.
Activate and calibrate the lens installed in the lens holder. Article number of the used lens must be
identified in the lens list and activated, then an automatic calibration must be perform to detect reference
points and middle position. See "Activating a lens", page 103 and "Calibrating a lens", page 104
6.
Switch on the light source. See "Light Source on-off", page 64.
7.
Open the Dowser. See "Dowser open-close", page 64.
8.
Display a test pattern on the screen. Select a test pattern that allows you to perform Flat and Scope
format settings.(e.g. Framing_uncorrected testpattern).For more info concerning how to select test
pattern, please see "Activating a test pattern using the control menu", page 67.
9.
Testing the limits of the lens. By using Zoom, Shift and Focus buttons, check if both flat and scope
formats of pictures can fit into the screen with the current lens. For more info see procedures "Lens zoom",
page 65, "Lens shift", page 66 and "Lens focus", page 66.
Tip: High accuracy is not necessary during this test. The goal is to quickly test lens limits.
Note: Not being able to do one of the next steps means that you have to realize a back focus
alignment directly on the lens, or the lens selected model is not suitable to this configuration.
10.
Creating the lens position files. Now that the limits of the lens have been tested, we can save the lens
positions for Flat and Scope formats. As described in the previous step, fit the image to the screen for the
Flat format, then save the active configuration in file named Flat. Repeat the same operation with Scope
format (save in file named Scope). See procedure "Creating a lens position file", page 107.
Tip: It is recommended to create a slightly larger picture (2 or 3 pixels) to facilitate masking step
that will come later.
