5 Checking Energy-Saving Effect [CARBON METER]

This feature will show energy-saving effect in terms of CO emission reduction (kg) when the projector's [ECO
2
MODE] is set to [ON]. This feature is called [CARBON METER].
There are two messages: [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS] and [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION]. The [TOTAL CAR-
BON SAVINGS] message shows the total amount of CO emission reduction from the time of shipment up to now.
2
You can check the information on [USAGE TIME] from [INFO.] of the menu. (→ page 75)
The [CARBON SAVINGS-SESSION] message shows the amount of CO emission reduction between the time
2
of changing to ECO MODE immediately after the time of power-on and the time of power-off. The [CARBON
SAVINGS-SESSION] message will be displayed in the [POWER OFF/ ARE YOU SURE?] message at the time of
power-off.
TIP:
• The formula as shown below is used to calculate the amount of CO emission reduction.
2
Amount of CO emission reduction = Power consumption in OFF for ECO MODE – Power consumption in ON for ECO MODE x
2
CO conversion factor.*
2
* C alculation for amount of CO emission reduction is based on an OECD publication "CO2 Emissions from Fuel Combustion,
2
2008 Edition".
• The [TOTAL CARBON SAVINGS] is calculated based on savings recorded in 15 minutes intervals.
• This formula will not apply to the power consumption which is not affected by whether [ECO MODE] is turned on or off.
