Operating the projector

Learn how to turn on and off the projector and the meaning of the status indicators.

Performing initial system start-up

Learn how to turn on all components of the Mirage SST system for the first time: chiller, laser
illumination source, and projector head.
Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in death or serious injury.
• SHOCK HAZARD! Do not attempt operation if the AC supply is not within the specified voltage
and current, as specified on the license label.
Never run the laser illumination source without the cooling system already running. The chiller must
be the first item turned on before power is applied to the laser rack and kept operating until after the
AC lockout/switch is rotated to the off position.
1. To be able to power on the laser illumination source using either the local or remote operation,
ensure either the J33 terminal block 1 or terminal block 2 is installed.
For installation information, refer to the "Installing the J33 terminal block on the laser
illumination source" topic in the Mirage SST Installation and Setup Guide (P/N: 020-102956-
XX).
2. Verify the coolant lines are connected correctly.
3. Fill the chiller reservoir with an approved coolant.
4. Turn on the chiller, set the temperature to between 19°C (66°F) to 22°C (71.6°F).
For more information on how to turn on the chiller, refer to the chiller's product
documentation.
5. Check the coolant level in the reservoir and hoses and top up the coolant as required.
6. Check that no leaks exist in the system.
7. Allow the chiller to run until the system is operating with no new bubbles entering the
reservoir. Add additional coolant as necessary.
This typically takes approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
8. Power on the laser illumination source:
• Local operation and the J33 terminal block 1 installed— Rotate the main AC lockout/switch
(A) to the ON position and rotate the Power key (B) clockwise to the ON position.
• Remote operation and the J33 terminal block 2 installed—Rotate the main AC lockout/
switch (A) to the ON position and rotate the Power key (B) counter clockwise to the REM
(remote) position. From the automation device, turn on the laser illumination source (by
closing circuits 8/9 from the J33 wire).
If using terminal block 2, ensure pins/wires 17 to 20 and 18 to 19 are closed or the
projector will not operate when the key is in the ON or the remote (REM) position.
The Interlock status indicator (C) on the laser illumination source turns yellow.
