Replacing The Lamps - Christie M Series User Manual

When set, the projector displays a warning message when the lamp has a recorded ON time
that exceeds the specified number of hours. The warning is displayed on the status page for
each lamp, where applicable.
This setting is user-defined only. It has no bearing on lamp warranty and is not tied to actual
lamp life in any way.
3. To disable the notification, set the number of hours to 0.
