serial number and press
Slidebars and Other Controls if you need help entering the number. Once entered,
the new lamp serial number will be added to the Lamp History menu and the Lamp
Hours timer will reset to "0". Lamp Mode and Lamp Limit remain as they were for
the previous lamp and can be changed at any time.

Figure 3.27. Recording the New Lamp Serial Number
NOTE: Enter a serial number only if you have just installed a new lamp. This will
help ensure that lamp timer is not reset on an old lamp and that the number of hours
logged on the lamp will be accurate.
ALWAYS record the serial number of a NEW lamp.
When a new lamp is installed and its serial
number recorded by selecting "Change
Lamp" in the Lamp menu, the lamp timer
resets to "0" and begins logging time for the
new lamp. This tally appears in both the
Lamp menu (see right) and the Status menu.
To review the number of hours logged for
previous lamps, consult the Lamp History
menu.
If the "Lamp Message" checkbox has been
enabled in the Lamp menu (recommended), an expiry message will appear upon
power-up when the lamp has reached its defined "Lamp Limit".
In addition, the LED's next to the built-in keypad will flash "LP" when lamp time
has expired. The lamp should be replaced.
The "Lamp Limit" setting should not exceed the lamp lifetime warrantee, as an old
lamp becomes increasingly fragile and more prone to sudden failure.
Refer to 4.4, Lamp & Filter Replacement and Section 6, Specifications.
