Lamp information light output switching
All information about the lamp is stored inside the lamp house and can be displayed via the projector software on the projection
screen. No information can be changed.
The Constant light output function can be changed between OFF, [slave] and [master].
By using the CLO function, the lamp life time will enlarge.
CLO for a single projector
When the CLO functions is in the OFF position, the lamp will follow the normal life cycle curve.
When the CLO function is ON (projector master or slave), the projector will regulate the lamp power until the preprogrammed CLO
value (number of lumens) (full line) is reached. As long as this power is below the maximum power of the lamp, the projector will
gives a constant light output. Once the maximum power is reached, the projector will follow again the normal lamp life cycle curve.

CLO function of one projector
Linked CLO, used by multiple projectors
If the linked CLO function is in the OFF position, the lamp of each projector will follow its own life cycle curve (dotted lines). When in
the ON position and linked as described below, all projectors will use the preprogrammed CLO value as long as no projector in the
chain is using its maximum lamp power already. Once one projector is on its maximum lamp power (projector with the lowest light
output) all other projectors will follow from now on the life cycle curve of this projector. That means that light output will be constant
as long as no projector has reached its maximum lamp power. From then on, the light output of all projector will decrease (full line).

Linking via the RS232 in/out
The constant light output of projectors in a chain (maximum 12 projectors) can be set to the same value by linking the projectors via
the RS232 connector.
To the RS232in of the first projector, a terminator must be connected (Z3498823). The out of the first must be connected to the in
of the next projector, etc.
All projectors must have a different projector address between 1 and 12.
All must have the same baud rate and RS mode.
The constant light output setting of one projector must be in the master position. All others must be in the slave position.

9.14 Advanced Processing
Overview
• Minimum Delay
9.14.1 Minimum Delay
Purpose
In normal mode, the processing (scaling and de-interlacing) in DLP projectors introduces a few frames delay (from input to screen).
Setting the optionMinimum Delayto ON disables all scaling and de-interlacing in the processing and reduces frame delay of the
projector (from input to screen) to ONE frame, caused by the formatter board (DLP technology restriction). The intended use of this
option is to apply native and progressive data to the projector and displaying it with minimum delay, using the full resolution of the
projector. Other formats will be displayed either unscaled and/or interlaced.
This feature can be used if additional delay in the projector is not acceptable. For instance if a projector is showing the DVI loop out
of another DLP or if an external scaler/de-interlacer does the processing.
