Adjust the vertical position of the screens that the upper border of the front elements make a straight line.
Page 34
3. Installation of Screen Module Step12 The leveling of the upper border of that row and the rows above is determined just by the tolerance of the screen size which is very tight. So the leveling should be already quite good. In case there is still a small gap to the adjacent screen, apply the leveling tape B195707, covering the entire width!
4. Additional fixation facilities of systems employed with earthquake protection 4 Additional fixation facilities of systems employed with earthquake protection For special requirements, the OverView mD50 system can be built up using a special support ("earthquake support") and the earthquake protection kit for the dark box. The earthquake protection kit consists of some additional fixation facilities for screws and some additional plates to increase the stiffness of the dark box.
4. Additional fixation facilities of systems employed with earthquake protection 4.1.2 Fixation of the screen frame After the screen has been aligned, the screen frame is additionally fixed to the left and right vertical profile of the dark box by means of a screw M6x55 DIN 912 with washer. Look at the big picture and the detailed view to see where the additional screws are installed.
5. Wall fixation 5 Wall fixation General The wall fixation comprises some standard parts (brackets, screws) and some project specific parts (profiles). The wall fixation is available in a linear version and in an A-shape version. Rules The display wall has to be fixed to the floor, and in case of (more than) three rows, to the wall, too. Fixation to the floor only: Fixation to the floor only: Fixation to the floor only:...

8. Final Adjustment and Configuration White Peaking Factor It's obvious that the minimum of the White Peaking Factor equals 1 (no white segment, no spoke light recapture). The maximum of the White Peaking Factor (all three contributions) is about 1.8. It varies slightly with different lamps.

Page 86
8. Final Adjustment and Configuration It is recommended to set the White Peaking value first and then adjust the gamma accordingly! A subsequent change of the White Peaking value will influence the gamma response. The following diagrams show the gamma curves for the gamma values 1 and 2.3 for an operation without white segment and without spoke light recapture (White Peaking =0) and for an operation with full white segment and full spoke light recapture (White Peaking = 1).
Page 87
8. Final Adjustment and Configuration 8.5.4.4 Set Brightness Before setting brightness, it is recommended that Lamp Optimization, (cf. Lamp Optimization) has been performed at least once per lamp! Use this menu to switch between a relative brightness setting and an absolute brightness setting. Per factory default, in new systems the value is set to relative (no brightness information about the used lamp is available).
Page 88
8. Final Adjustment and Configuration The dimmer will be positioned immediately after entering a new target value, and the related DIS value is adjusted accordingly. Due to the fact that the lamps show tolerances in burner position and arc length, multiple lamps with the identical relative brightness value will show differences in emitted brightness.

11. De-mounting the seamless screens 11 De-mounting the seamless screens When de-installing the system with seamless screens, strictly keep to the procedure below! Otherwise the screens will be damaged! Since there are four different types of screens with respect to movability (static, in horizontal direction only, in vertical direction only, in horizontal and vertical direction), not only the entirety of the projection systems has to be cared for, but also the position of the projection system in the display wall!
Page 120
11. De-mounting the seamless screens When the screen to start de-installation has been defined, turn in the two horizontal movement screws of this screen until the screen front is moved approx. 2mm against the vertical frame towards the horizontal movement screw. Only when there is a gap of 2mm to the adjacent screen, from the rear side of the display wall unlock the 4 securing screws of this screen and de-mount this screen On the screen, mark it's position in the display wall!
