Setting The Power Management Parameters; Configuring The Lens - Christie M Series User Manual

Setting the power management parameters

Configure the projector to reduce the amount of power used.
1. Select Configuration > Power Management.
2. Configure the following:
• LCD Backlight—The backlight for the LCD has three states. Always On, Always Off, or
Timer. The backlight turns on again when any key on the LCD is pressed or if an alarm is
raised.
• LCD Backlight Timer—Sets how long the LCD backlight stays on (in seconds) when in
timer mode.
• LCD Backlight Level—Sets the LCD backlight brightness level. Maximum 25/Minimum 0.
• Auto Power Up—If there is an AC power interruption, while Auto Power Up is enabled,
the projector resumes operation in the same state as it left off. If the lamps are on and an
image showing when AC power is lost, the projector automatically powers back up with
the lamps on and an image shows when AC is restored.
• Auto Shutdown Enable—When Auto Shutdown Mode has been selected, and no
projector activity has been seen for the activation time-out period, the projector enters a
power saving mode in which the lamps dim and the shutter closes.
If this condition persists for an additional time-out period, the projector automatically goes
to Standby mode. The presence of any activity within this combined interval cancels Auto
Shutdown and returns the projector to normal operation.
• Turn Off Image After (Min)—Sets the activation interval (in minutes) for Auto
Shutdown. If all activity (input signals, web or serial port activity, key presses) is lost for
this length of time, and Auto Shutdown is enabled, an Auto Shutdown cycle begins.
• Enter Standby After (Min)—Sets the interval (in minutes) between starting Auto
Shutdown and entering Standby mode. Once Auto Shutdown has been entered, and all
activity continues to be absent for this interval, the projector automatically enters power
Standby mode.
• Lamp Regeneration Start Time—Sets the time of day (in 24 hour format) when the
regeneration cycle starts. For 24/7 operation, the lamp regeneration cycle is required or
lamp life is reduced.
In Dual Lamp mode, the cycle is performed on each lamp separately. The second lamp
waits for the first lamp to come back on before it begins the cycle. In single lamp mode,
the projector goes into Standby mode for the regeneration cycle. The regeneration cycle
runs for 15 minutes for each lamp. The lamp(s) must run for a minimum of 24 hours or
the regeneration cycle is skipped.
• Over-temp Fan Assist—Causes all fans to come on at full speed if any enabled thermal
sensor has an over-temperature fault. This may help to prevent an emergency shutdown if
the extra cooling can bring the temperature within limits before the shutdown occurs. The
fan assist causes increased noise levels due to the simultaneous full speed operation of all
the fans. Normal operation resumes when all over-temperature conditions are removed or
fan assist is turned off.
