Projector weight Do not underestimate the weight of one Barco CLM R10+, which is about ±31 kg (±68 lb.). Be sure that the table or truss installation on which the projector(s) has to be installed is capable of handling five (5) times the complete load of the complete system.
2. General Which screen type ? There are two major categories of screens used for projection equipment. Those used for front projected images and those for rear projection applications. Screens are rated by how much light they reflect (or transmit in the case of rear projection systems) given a determined amount of light projected toward them.
This check should confirm that there are no broken knobs or connectors, that the cabinet and panel surfaces are free of dents and scratches, and that the operating panel are not scratched of cracked. The Barco sales and service office should be notified as soon as possible.
2. General Projector configurations The different configurations Depending on the installation the projector can be mounted in different ways, the 4 different configurations are: Front / Table (F/T) Front / Ceiling (F/C) Rear / Table (R/T) Rear / Ceiling (R/C) For a ceiling mounted configuration, the optional carry handle kit is required.
Page 11
2. General Positioning the projector SCREEN FLOOR Image 2-5 On-Axis / Off-Axis projection The position of the projector with reference to the screen may also be different depending on the installation. Basically the projector can be positioned in On-Axis or Off-Axis configuration. On-Axis configuration means that the projector is positioned so as to have the centre of the lens coinciding with the centre of the screen.
Page 12
Side to side tilt must not exceed 10°. This limit ensures that the lamp in the projector operates properly and safely. Front - back tilting is limited to 10°. When using the projector out of this range, Barco cannot guarantee a safe operation and the responsibility is for the installer/operator.
Projector Toolset is only available in a download version, no CD can be ordered. Where to find the download file(s) The program and all necessary plug-ins, as well as the Reference manual can be downloaded for free from Barco’s Partnerzone, (URL: www.partnerzone.events.barco.com).

In case of information contained in the amplitude of the signals which is the case of data color signals (R, G, B),image 9-42 , we are quite sure that the amplitude of these color signals is subject to alterations.
9. Image menu ∆ ∆Β ∆ Black level Image 9-43 One can conclude here that a good color tracking can only be met by using three previously (input) balanced color signals Analog Digital Conversion The analog color signals must pass through an Analog/Digital conversion circuit prior to any digital processing in the PMP. A typical ADC transforms the analog value into an 8 bit coded digital signal.
