    Lamp Module
    DisposalThe lamp inside the lamp module is under great pressure. DO NOT incinerate.
    !
    WARNING! 
    Eye protection should be worn when working with the lamp to avoid
    injury from metal particles.
    If Desired, pressure can be relieved by any means of breaking the copper tubular seal on
    the back of the lamp. Pliers and wire cutters work well to break the seal.
    Lamps can be discarded as landfill garbage. However, the lamp operation timer contains
    a small amount of mercury and must be treated as hazardous waste if discarded in
    volume.

    ALICE Help Guide 1
    If your ALICE projector operating system is not working as expected, and you are not sure of what to do,
    start with this guide. This guide directs you through some initial checks and basic troubleshooting.

    Analyzing
    SymptomsStart troubleshooting by analyzing the symptoms to determine a strategy for resolving the
    problem
    Consider the following;
      Has the system or configuration ev er worked? If so, what changed?
      Is the error condition reproducible or random?
      Is the error specific to a particular system, configuration, or application?
      What particular hardware or firmware is involved?
      Are any non-Windows 95 device drivers or TSRs loaded?
      Does the order by which drives or application start-up make a difference?
      Does the error still occur with Safe Mode, or Safe Mode w/Network Support?
      For additional information relevant to Windows® 95 configuration and operation,
    please refer to the reference material included with your system.
    Start
     Step 1. If desired, connect an external monitor to the VGA “out” port
      The VGA “out “ port connector is located on the PC card cage. Open the front
    access door. The VGA “out” port is in the XXX slot from the right as viewed from the
    front, table mounted.
     Step 2. Apply main AC to the projector and toggle the main AC switch to the “on”
    position.
     Monitor the boot sequence.
     The normal boot-up sequence for the ALICE projector is as follows:
      The AmPro 5200 follows an initial “power-up” sequences from the time the main AC
    is toggled “on” to the time an image is displayed.
      With the two IR Receiv ers connected, plug the main power cord into the receptacle.
    Toggle the main AC switch to the “on” position. The projector will automatically start,
    first displaying the custom Windows boot-up screen, and then the Scan Disk
    operation will be evoked.
      Once the Scan Disk operation has completed, the projector will automatically start
    the ALICEXGA program and all associated programs.
      Once all programs have booted, an automatic search for an external source will
    start. If an external source is present, the projector will auto-select or auto-setup the
    source. If no external source is present, the projector will switch to the internal
    graphic channel.
      NOTE; if more than one external source is present, the projector will switch to the
    “last source” selected prior to the last shutdown.

    Safe Mode
    OperationWindows® 95 will automatically initiate Safe Mode if it detects that the system start-up has
    failed, for example if the Registry is corrupted, or an application has requested Safe Mode.
    Sporadically, Windows® 95 will start Safe Mode for no apparent reason. If this is the case,
    simply rebooting the system will resolv e the problem.
    To access Windows® 95 Startup Menu, when you see the message “Starting Windows 95 ,”
    press F8.
    At times, simply pressing “NORMAL” at the Startup Menu will resolve the problem.
    Use Safe Mode for system startup situations such as the following
      If Windows® 95 fails to start after the “Starting Windows 95” message appears.
      If Windows® 95 seems to stall for an extended period.
      Windows® 95 doesn’t work correctly or has an unexpected result.
      If you cannot print to a local printer after attempting other troubleshooting steps.
      If your video display doesn’t work properly. In the case of the ALICE, connect an
    ex ternal m onitor.
      If your computer stalls repeatedly.
