Lamp Mode; Power; Intensity; Yellow Notch Filter - Christie M Series User Manual

Section 3: Operation

3.8.2 Lamp Mode

Select between one of the three different lamp modes:
• Maximum Brightness mode sets the lamp to run at its highest power level.
• Constant Intensity mode maintains a specific brightness level over time. The brightness level can be
adjusted via the Intensity control (see below). As the lamp ages, the projector will increase power to
maintain the desired brightness. This option is disabled if LiteLOC calibration has not been performed.
• Constant Power mode maintains a specific power level for the lamp. The power level can be adjusted via
the Power controls (see below).
NOTES (FOR DLV MODELS): 1) DLV models are restricted to 150W to maximize lamp life. 2) If Constant
Power is selected, the brightness can be reduced by closing the dynamic iris. See
information. 3) If Constant Intensity is selected, then user control of the dynamic iris is disabled.

3.8.3 Power

The Power control represents the amount of power sent to the lamp(s) in Watts. Lower power levels reduce
brightness and extend lamp life. This control is only enabled while in Constant Power mode.
NOTE: This slide bar does not update in real-time when operating in Maximum Brightness or Constant
Intensity mode. To see the amount of power being applied to the lamp while in Maximum Brightness or
Constant Intensity, see the Lamp Info page on the Status tab of the WebUI.

3.8.4 Intensity

The intensity control represents the target brightness for the LiteLOC system. The value is a percentage of the
maximum brightness of the lamp(s). This control is only enabled while in Constant Intensity mode.

3.8.6 Single Lamp Switch On Fail

Enabling this option causes the projector to automatically turn on the other lamp, should the currently
operating lamp turn off during normal operation or if the currently selected lamp fails to ignite.
This control is only in effect while in the following modes:
• Lamp 1 single lamp use
• Lamp 2 single lamp use
• Auto-select a single lamp
NOTES: 1) A brief period of no light will occur before the other lamp ignites and warms up sufficiently. 2)
The operational mode of the projector may change from Lamp 1 single lamp use to Lamp 2 single lamp use
or visa versa with the option enabled. For example: If lamp 1 fails to ignite and lamp 2 ignites successfully,
then the operational mode will change to Lamp 2 single lamp use. 3) This option does not change the
operational mode if it is set to Auto-select a single lamp.

3.8.7 Dynamic Iris - Submenu
