Replacing Keypad Batteries

The optional IR Remote Keypad uses four AA size, 1.5V batteries (preferably alkaline). To
install new batteries, open the battery compartment at the back side of the keypad by pulling on
the raised portion of the cover as shown (Figure 4.1).
Remove the old batteries and properly discard. Wait a minute or two and place the new batter-
ies in the compartment, orienting the positive/negative of each battery according to the labels in
the compartment. When batteries are in place, replace the cover by inserting its bottom edge
first and snapping the top into place. Do not force.
NOTE: Always wait a minute or two when replacing batteries so that the internal electronics
discharge and can recognize the change.
NOTE: For this procedure you will need a VX-5c Lamp and Filter Replacement Kit from
Runco.
The high brightness of your projector is provided by a 700 watt Xenon lamp permanently
mounted inside its own protective housing. When the bulb approaches 1000 hours of usage, this
lamp assembly should be replaced.
How Old is The Lamp?
The number of hours logged on the current lamp appears both in the Lamp submenu (accessed
through the Advanced menu) and the Status menu. In the Status menu, do not confuse "Lamp
Hours" with "Lamp Counter", which indicates the number of hours logged during the 'rental
period', in a situation where the VX-5c is to be rented for various functions. In a permanent
install, this would be of no consequence.
NOTE: As the lamp nears its limit (as set in Lamp Limit), a message can appear on screen to
warn that the lamp needs to be replaced. To make sure that this warning appears, enter a
checkmark in the Lamp Message checkbox located in the Lamp submenu.
