1 5200 User’s Manual Warnings and Important Notes First Before operating this equipment, please read this manual carefully and completely. This manual will provide you with the necessary information of the many functions and features, and the necessary instructions for operation of this equipment. Note Data presented in this manual has been carefully reviewed for accuracy and reliability; howev er, no responsibility is assumed for inaccuracies. The information contained in this manual is subject to change without prior notice. This symbol is intended to alert the user that parts inside this product are a risk of electrical shock to persons. This symbol is intended to alert the user that important operating instructions are in the accompanying literature. CAUTION Electrostatic Sensitive DevicesThis symbol is intended to alert the user that electrostatic sensitive devices are employed in this product. When working inside the equipment, handling or transporting printed circuit boards protect against “Electrostatic Discharge”. WARNING! Bright Light SourceThis unit has an extremely bright light source. Do not look directly into the lens or the beam of light. Be especially careful that children do not stare directly into the light. WARNING! Electrical ShockTo reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. WARNING! UV RadiationThe lamp contained in this product is an intense source of light and heat. One component of the light emitted from this lamp is ultraviolet light. DO NOT LOOK INTO THE LENS ASSEMBLY! Potential eye and skin hazards are present when the lamp is energized due to ultraviolet radiation. Av oid unnecessary exposure. Some medications are known to make individuals extra sensitive to UV radiation. Main AC Line The AmPro 5200 Series is auto ranging from 90-240 VAC. There is no need to pre-configure any switches. WARNING! AC GroundFor your safety and proper operation of the projector, the projector MUST BE connected to a properly wired and grounded outlet. An improperly grounded system can place hazardous voltages on accessible metal parts of the projector and voids the warranty due to potential damage to the projector.
Warnings and Important Notes 2 5200 User’s Manual Power Source InterruptionsThe 5000 Series of projector operation is based on a computer system, not unlike your desktop computer. Since computer systems are very sensitive to variations in v oltage supplied by the AC power source. Ov er-v oltage, under-voltage and transients (or spikes) can erase data from memory or even cause components to fail. To protect against these types of problems, power cables should be properly grounded and one or both of the following methods should be employed; Place the system on a dedicated power circuit. Do not allow the system to share a circuit with one of the following: Copier machines Air Conditioners Power Tools Teletype machines Any other motorized equipment Power Protection DevicesA variety of devices are av ailable that protect against power problems, such as power surges, transients, and power failures. The following equipment can provide some lev el of protection; Surge Protectors Line Conditioners Un-interruptible Power Supply (UPS). A 1.5KWA UPS minimum recommended. Warning! Cable ConnectionsTo avoid damage to the projector, power “off” the projector and disconnect the main AC line cord before you connect or disconnect the IR receiver(s) or any other peripheral. Ceiling Mount PrecautionsIn a ceiling mount application, the strength and rigidity of the ceiling are very important. The location should be carefully checked beforehand to determine that the installation will safely support the weight of the projector. NOTE: AmPro Corporation is not responsible for injury or damage caused by an improperly installed projector. Lamp Module Warnings Be sure the lamp and its holder are cooled before changing lamp or injury to personnel will occur. The lamp is under great pressure at all times and may explode. To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or property damage, when servicing the projector lamp wear safety glasses and allow the lamp to cool completely. Be careful not to touch the exposed surface of the lamp itself. This could impair lamp performance and shorten lamp life. Lamp Module DisposalThe lamp inside the lamp module is under pressure. Do not incinerate. Eye protection should be worn when working with the lamp to av oid injury from metal particles. Lens Cleaning To avoid the risk of scratching the lens, only clean the lens if absolutely required. A small amount of dust on the lens will have very little effect on the picture quality. If the lens must be cleaned, use a dry, soft optical quality cloth. Rub very gently in a circular motion. General Notes All safety and operating instructions should be read before the projector is operated. The exterior of the projector may be kept in good condition by wiping it with a clean, dry, sof t cloth. For general safety, the projector should be cleaned internally only by an authorized AmPro service technician. Do not place magnetic equipment on or near the projector. Secure serv ice any time the projector is damaged or fails. An obvious change in performance may also indicate a need for service. Caution Hot Surfaces
Warnings and Important Notes 3 5200 User’s Manual General Notes Do not attempt to service the projector yourself by removing the covers. Doing so may expose you to dangerous v oltages or other hazards. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. Remove the main power plug from the wall socket when the projector has failed. Do not use this projector immediately after moving from a low temperature to high temperature, as this causes condensation, which may result in fire, electrical shock, or other hazards. When this projector is used on a cart, care should be taken to avoid quick stops, excessiv e force, and unev en surfaces, which may cause the projector and cart to ov erturn, damaging the equipment or causing possible injury to operator. PC/ALICE ConfigurationCAUTION: The ALICE projector operates with an internal PC. DO NOT make any changes to the operating system and the ALICE program without prior authorization from the factory. Failure to comply may result in warranty cancellation. Should AmPro be required to restore the projector back to its original configuration, AmPro WILL charge for labor and/or travel (shipping to-from the factory) and/or materials required to do so. Windows® 95 Please do not lose the certificate of Authenticity number that is attached to the front of the Windows® 95 manual (Product 00000-OEM-000000-00000), because another number cannot be issued. We CANNOT provide a replacement! This number is keyed to the Windows® 95 CD that you received with your ALICE projector and if lost would make purchasing a new copy a necessity. Copy Guarded Video MaterialDue to the nature of the encoded process used in copy guarded video material, which is beyond the control of AmPro Corporation. It is the user’s responsibility to correct for any video disturbances or artifacts caused by the copy guarded video material which may affect the projector’s operation.
