Safety Restriction Zone (RZ) based on the HD The HD depends on the amount of lumens produced by the projector and the type of lens installed. See chapter “HD in function of modifying optics”, page To protect untrained end users (as cinema visitors, spectators) the installation shall comply with the following installation requirements: Operators shall control access to the beam within the hazard distance or install the product at a height that will prevent spectators' eyes from being in the hazard distance.
The LIP shall be installed by Barco or by a trained and Barco-authorized installer or shall only be transferred to laser light show variance holders. This is applicable for dealers and distributors since they may need to install the LIP (demo install) and/or they transfer (sell, rent, lease) the LIP.
