Configuring The Lamp; Selecting The Lamp Operation Mode - Christie M Series User Manual

2. Configure the following:
• Intelligent Lens System—Enables the Intelligent Lens System (ILS). When enabled, the
lens position (horizontal, vertical, focus, and zoom offsets) are stored per channel. If you
change channels, the lens position changes as the new signal is being displayed. When ILS
is not enabled, the lens is controlled independently of channels or input signals.
• Manual Zoom/focus—When this control is selected, the holding current is removed from
the zoom and focus motors so that they can be changed manually. Zoom and Focus should
not be adjusted manually when this control is not selected, as this results in damage to
the motors.
• Calibrate—The lens calibration procedure is needed each time a new lens is installed in
order for the ILS feature to perform reliably. This procedure calibrates; horizontal, vertical,
focus, and zoom offset movements.
• Lock All Lens Motors—Prevents all lens motors from moving. It disables the Zoom,
Focus, Horizontal and Vertical Position settings, effectively locking out any changes and
overriding all other lens features. This prevents accidental lens position changes in multi-
projector installations.
• Calibrate On New Lens—Prompts for a lens calibration each time a lens is inserted. The
user is always prompted before starting the calibration.
• Calibrate On Startup—Check this box to initiate a lens reset procedure on every power-
up. Use this if the lens is subject to manual movement between power sessions.
• Home Position—Returns the lens to the horizontal and vertical home position. Focus and
zoom are unaffected.
• Calibration Status—Displays the current lens calibration status.

Configuring the lamp

Learn how to set up and work with a lamp.
This section provides information and procedures for optimizing lamp performance. Optimizing lamp
performance is recommended to make sure you receive the brightest, most uniform image possible for
the life of the lamp.

Selecting the lamp operation mode

Specify how the lamps should be used.
1. Select Lamp > Lamp Operation.
2. Select one of the following modes:
• Lamp 1 single lamp use or Lamp 2 single lamp use—Only uses the lamp specified. If
the selected lamp does not strike, then the projector does not turn on.
• Dual Lamp Use—Uses both lamps together. The projector stays in this operational mode
even if only one lamp successfully ignites. If both lamps fail to ignite then the projector
goes back to standby.
• Auto-Select a Single Lamp—Ignites the lamp with the fewest recorded hours of on time.
