How old is the lamp?
The number of hours logged on the current lamp appears both in the Lamp 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 current rental period
only and is normally used for rental projectors only.
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. The LED's next to the built-in
keypad will flash "LP" when lamp time has expired. To make sure that this warning
appears, enter a checkmark in the Lamp Message checkbox located in the Lamp
submenu.
A #2 Phillips screwdriver is required. All access panels' screws are ¼-turn
'
TOOLS:
to lock/unlock.
Warnings
Lamp replacement must be performed by a qualified service technician.
Cool the lamp completely and handle by the housing only.
Install the correct wattage lamp supplied by Christie (see above) and
read the Lamp Replacement procedure in its entirety before proceeding.
Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp. Fingerprints left on the
surface can lead to an intense accumulation of heat called a "hotspot", which
could potentially result in the lamp shattering. It is recommended you wear
clean, lint-free gloves and a face shield when working with the lamp.
1. TURN THE LAMP OFF
Press (power) to turn the lamp off. Allow the cooling fans to stop
automatically (within approximately 5 minutes) before proceeding with Step 2.
This wait period is also required to allow the lamp to sufficiently cool before
handling.
2. UNPLUG THE PROJECTOR
When the cooling fans have stopped, turn the projector's main switch off, and
unplug.
Always power down and unplug the projector prior to
servicing. Allow the lamps to cool before handling
