Page 27: Pulse Rcu, Function Of The On/Off Button
Remarks when using the RC5 protocol Due to new or updated functionality not all buttons of the Pulse RCU are one-to-one compatible with the legacy Barco RCU and projectors. Take the following limitations into account: • Buttons Shutter open and Shutter close emit the same code when in RC5 mode. This because the legacy RCU’s only had 1 button for Shutter functionality.
Page 28: Using The Rcu
The RCU will not function properly if strong light strikes the IR sensor window or if there are obstacles between the RCU and the IR receiver. Image 2–7 The RCU can also hard-wired been used. See chapter “Using the mini-jack connector of the RCU”, page R5915525 /01 F400/FS400...

8.6.1 Introduction Introduction The CLO (Constant Light Output) is a Barco Pulse software feature for maintaining a stable light output from the projector over time, by automatically adjusting the light source. The CLO feature utilizes a light sensor placed internally in the projectors light path.

Explanation: The light source power is at its maximum and can no longer maintain the desired light output • L8000d Illumination cli light measuring failed Explanation: The CLO failed while trying to measure the light on the light sensor, either when enabling the CLO or during CLO operation R5915525 /01 F400/FS400...
Page 116: Example For Using The Clo Feature For Maintaining Brightness Over Time
The same prerequisites apply for this feature regarding the degradation of the light source and the initial set- point chosen for the light source power. The CLO scale can be set and / or monitored using the property: • illumination.clo.scale R5915525 /01 F400/FS400...

Why change the 3D setup? While Barco can provide a 3D emitter and active shutter glasses as options to this projector, you are also free to use a 3D emitter and active shutter glasses of your own choice. Since glasses and emitter can have various specifications compared to the ones Barco can provide, the 3D setup menu allows you to configure the output image to the specifications of your glasses and emitter.

DMD display device Barco projectors uses a DMD device from Texas Instruments to display the image. A DMD device displays the intensity of a pixel by time multiplexing the time it is on over the frame time. If one pixel is 50% grey, it is on for 50% of the time for that frame.
