2.4 Heat and Fire Hazards  
Warning Risk of Fire  
Warning Risk of Fire: Do Not Place Flammable or Combustible Materials Near Projector !  
Barco large screen projection products are designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent safety regulations. This projector  
radiates heat on its external surfaces and from ventilation ducts during normal operation, which is both normal and safe. Exposing  
ammable or combustible materials into close proximity of this projector could result in the spontaneous ignition of that material,  
resulting in a re. For this reason, it is absolutely necessary to leave an “exclusion zone” around all external surfaces of the projector  
whereby no ammable or combustible materials are present. The exclusion zone must be not less than 40 cm (16”) for all DLP  
Cinema projectors. The exclusion zone on the lens side must be at least 5 m. Do not cover the projector or the lens with any  
material while the projector is in operation. Keep ammable and combustible materials away from the projector at all times. Mount  
the projector in a well ventilated area away from sources of ignition and out of direct sun light. Never expose the projector to rain  
or moisture. In the event of re, use sand, CO2, or dry powder re extinguishers; never use water on an electrical re. Always  
have service performed on this projector by authorized Barco service personnel. Always insist on genuine Barco replacement parts.  
Never use non-Barco replacement parts as they may degrade the safety of this projector.  
Slots and Openings  
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the sides are provided for ventilation; to ensure reliable operation of the projector and to  
protect it from overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the  
product too close to walls, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This  
projector should not be placed in a built-in installation or enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.  
Projection Room  
Projection rooms must be well ventilated or cooled in order to avoid build up of heat. It is necessary to vent hot exhaust air from  
console to the outside of the building. The minimum exhaust airow requirement is 6.65 m3/min or 235 CFM.  
Replaceable Batteries  
The projector electronic is provided with a replaceable battery.  
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. For disposal of used batteries, always  
consult federal, state, local and provincial hazardous waste disposal rules and regulations to ensure proper  
disposal.

2.5 Safety on Installation  
Personal Injury or Property Damage  
WARNING: To minimize risks of personal injury or property damage, due electrical shock, re, energy hazards, mechanical and heat  
hazards, Ultraviolet an Infrared energy hazards, and/or chemical hazards this equipment must be installed and/or serviced ONLY  
by SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
To prevent risk of re or electric shock, do not immerse or expose this appliance in water or other liquids.  
To prevent the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this appliance, but always take it to an authorized, trained service  
person when service or repair work is required.  
The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause a risk of re, electric shock, or injury  
to persons.  
Projector Damage  
If the Air Filters are not regularly replaced (A "clean" booth would be monthly-minimum), the air ow inside the projector could be  
disrupted, causing overheating. Overheating may lead to the projector shutting down during operation.  
In order to ensure that correct airow is maintained, and that the projector complies with Electromagnetic Compatibility requirements,  
it should always be operated with all of it’s covers in place.  
Ensure that nothing can be spilled on, or dropped inside the projector. If this does happen, switch off and unplug the mains supply  
immediately. Do not operate the projector again until it has been checked by qualied service personnel.  
The projector must always be mounted in a manner which ensures free ow of air into its air inlets and unimpeded evacuation of  
the hot air exhausted from its cooling system. Heat sensitive materials should not be placed in the path of the exhausted air or on  
the lamp house.

all feet of the projector are captured.  
The pedestal should be placed in front of the port window wall in this manner that the projector front cover is at a distance of  
minimum 20 centimeter from the port window.  
20 cm  
Image 3-6  
Barco offers a pedestal for the DP-1200 digital projector. This universal pedestal allows a solid and easy setup  
of the projector. The universal pedestal has a separate compartment to install the UPS unit (if available) for  
the DP-1200 digital projector. Futhermore, the universal pedestal contains a standard 19” rack to build in the  
projector peripherals like alternative content switchers (e.g. ACS-2048).  
Necessary tools  
14 mm wrench.  
17 mm wrench.  
Projector centering  
1. If the projector is standalone in front of the port window, center the projector with the theatre screen (see ref A image 3-7).  
2. If a lm projector is already present (projector will be off-center), try to optimize aim (see ref B image 3-7).  
Note: Unlike lm projectors, it is best to keep the projector lens surface as parallel to the screen as possible, even if it is  
signicantly above the screen center.  
The off-center position slightly increase side keystone, but will minimize horizontal lens offset required.

4. Later, when the projector is up-and-running, adjust precise image geometry and placement.  
Projector tilting  
In an ideal installation, the DP-1500 lens surface is centered with and parallel to the screen. This orientation helps to ensure  
optimized lens performances with minimal offset. If this position is not possible (such as when the projector is signicantly higher  
than the center of the screen), it is better to rely on offset rather than extra tilt.  
1. Before adjusting tilt, make sure the projector is as well-centered with the theatre screen as possible for your installation area.  
2. Check with theatre personnel for the degree of screen tilt, or measure this incline with a protractor at the screen.  
3. Tilt the projector to closely match this screen tilt angle as follows:  
-
-
-
Loosen the nuts (A), using a wrench of 17 mm, on the threaded rod.  
Adjust the height of the legs until the projected image matches the projection port window and the screen tilt.  
Secure the leg height by tightening the nuts (A).

3.3 Installation of the exhaust system  
About Exhaust  
The exhaust stack of the projector head is designed to t a 201 mm (7.91 inch) diameter duct. This size must be used throughout  
the entire system and installed to eliminate any possibility of downdraft or rain dripping into the lamp house.  
The exhaust blower must be capable of removing minimum 6,65 m3/min (235 CFM).  
CAUTION: If more than one projector is installed in a common projection booth, the above exhaust air ow  
must be measured at EACH individual projector head exhaust stack. Inadequate exhaust draft can contribute  
to premature xenon bulb lamp failure.  
How to install the Exhaust stack  
See illustration below:  
Image 3-10  
Ensure good condition of the lamp house blower. Keep the blower inlet clean for unrestricted air ow.  
To ensure maximum bulb life, operate the lamp house blower and the exhaust system for at least ten minutes  
after extinguishing the bulb.

5.2 Lens selection  
How to select the right lens for your application ?  
1. Determine the required screen width (SW).  
2. Determine the position of the projector in the projection room with regard to the screen and measure the projector-screen distance  
(PD).  
3. Use the lens formulas (see "Lens formulas", page 36) to nd the best corresponding PD with regard to the measured projector-  
screen distance for the required screen width SW.  
Tip:  
Divide PD by SW to determine the approximate throw ratio. Choose a lens, which captures the calculated throw ratio.  
Use the lens formula of the chosen lens to recalculate exactly.

5.6 Lens shift, zoom & focus  
Manual or motorized lens adjustment  
The DP-1500 projector can be equipped with a motorized or manual lens shift functionality and/or a motorized or manual zoom &  
focus functionality. A DP-1500 projector with a manual shift can be recognized by the two knobs on the top of the projector (see  
image 5-10). A DP-1500 projector with a motorized zoom & focus can be recognized by the electrical lens socket upon the lens  
holder.  
Maximum shift range  
The lens can be shifted with respect to the DMD which result in a shifted image on the screen (Off-Axis). A 100% shift means that  
the centre point of the projected image is shifted by half the screen size. In other words, the centre point of the projected image falls  
together with the outline of the image in an On-Axis projection. Due to mechanical an optical limitations the shift range is limited as  
well.  
All DC2K lenses have a shift range of 50% up/down and 15% left/right. This range is valid for all throw ratios. Only the 0.98" DC2K  
Zoom (1.95–3.2 : 1) lenses with item numbers R9855934 and R98559341 have a larger shift range of 128% up/down.  
How to shift the lens of the DP-1500?  
1. Is the projector equipped with a motorized shift?  
If yes, use the up and down arrow keys on the local keypad to shift the lens vertically and use the left and right arrow keys on  
the local keypad to shift the lens horizontally.  
Image 5-9  
If no, use the rst knob (V) on top of the projector to shift the lens vertically and use the second knob (H) on top of the projector  
to shift the lens horizontally.

5.7 Scheimpug adjustment  
What has to be done ?  
The lens holder has to be adjusted so that the “sharp focus plane” of the projected image falls together with the plane of the screen  
(Fp1Fp2). This is achieved by changing the distance between the DMD plane and the lens plane (Lp1Lp2). The closer the lens  
plane comes to the DMD plane the further the sharp focus plane will be. It can happen that you won’t be able to get a complete  
focused image on the screen due to a tilt (or swing) of the lens plane with respect to the DMD plane. This is also know as Sheimpug’s  
law. To solve this the lens plane must be placed parallel with the DMD plane. This can be achieved by turning the lens holder to  
remove the tilt (or swing) between lens plane and DMD plane (Lp3Lp4).

Image 5-13  
The lens holder has three adjustment mechanisms. The rst mechanism allows to shift the lens back and forward, the second  
mechanism allows to tilt the lens and the third mechanism allows to swing the lens. Note that all three adjustment mechanisms  
stand in relation with each other. So, a change to one of them will also effect the adjustment result of the two others. Therefore,  
all three adjustment points have to be alternately and repeatedly adjusted until the projected image is completely focused on the  
screen.  
Scheimpug principle  
The "plane of sharp focus" can be changed so that any plane can be brought into sharp focus. When the DMD plane  
and lens plane are parallel, the plane of sharp focus will also be parallel to these two planes. If, however, the lens  
plane is tilted with respect to the DMD plane, the plane of sharp focus will also be tilted according to geometrical and  
optical properties. The DMD plane, the principal lens plane and the sharp focus plane will intersect in a line below the  
projector for downward lens tilt.  
Necessary tools  
3 mm Allen wrench.  
5,5 mm nut driver or at screw driver.  
White paper sheet.  
How to set up the projector for lens holder adjustment?  
1. Place the projector upon a stable pedestal in its nal location.  
2. Remove the front cover, side cover and top cover of the projector.  
3. Switch on the projector and project the internal green focus pattern.  
4. Focus the projected image as sharp as possible upon the screen.  
How to adjust the lens holder?  
1. Loosen (not remove) the following lock screws of the lens holder adjustment mechanism using a 3 mm Allen wrench:  
a) The three screws of the lens holder front plate. Note that the three retaining springs of the lens holder plate are not strong  
enough to keep some heavy lenses into position while adjusting the lens holder. If this is the case you have to fasten these  
screws immediately after adjusting the focus shift plate.  
b) The two screws of the lens holder tilt mechanism.  
c) The two screws of the lens holder swing mechanism.

2. Rotate the focus shift plate of the lens holder until the centre (F) of the projected pattern is most sharp on the screen.  
Tip:  
Use a white paper to search for the “sharp focus plane”. The sharp focus plane is located behind the screen in case you  
can’t focus the projected pattern on the paper somewhere between the screen and the lens. Knowing that will help you  
to determine in which direction you have to rotate the focus shift plate. Rotate the plate counterclockwise in case you  
can’t nd the sharp focus plane somewhere between screen and lens.  
Tip:  
Immediately fasten the three screws of the lens holder front plate in case of using a projection lens which is to heavy for  
the three retaining springs of the lens holder plate.

3. Adjust the screw (bit by bit) of the lens holder swing mechanism until the mid left and mid right of the projected pattern is most  
sharp on the screen. Use a 5,5 mm nut driver or a at screw driver.  
Tip:  
Use a white paper to search for the “sharp focus plane” at the left or right side of the projected pattern. Turn the adjustment  
screw a bit and check if the sharp focus plane has come closer to the screen. If not, turn the adjustment screw in the  
opposite direction and check again.  
Note: A simultaneous readjustment of the focus shift plate will be necessary to get the mid left and mid right of the projected  
pattern equally focused as the centre.

TOUCH PANEL  
This female DB-9 connector allows you to use a standard serial cable up to 10 meter to connect the touch panel interface with the  
projector. Note that the RS232 protocol is used on this connection.  
RS232 IN  
This female DP-9 connector is only used for service purposes. Do not use this connector to communicate with the projector.  
RS232  
An Electronic Industries Association (EIA) serial digital interface standard specifying the characteristics of the commu-  
nication path between two devices using either D-SUB 9 pins or D-SUB 25 pins connectors. This standard is used for  
relatively short-range communications and does not specify balanced control lines. RS-232 is a serial control standard  
with a set number of conductors, data rate, word length and type of connector to be used. The standard species com-  
ponent connection standards with regard to computer interface. It is also called RS-232-C, which is the third version  
of the RS-232 standard, and is functionally identical to the CCITT V.24 standard. Logical ’0’ is > + 3V, Logical ’1’ is < -  
3V. The range between -3V and +3V is the transition zone.  
GENERAL PURPOSE IN/OUT  
This 37 pins connector can be used to send or receive trigger signals from other devices. These input/output pins can be pro-  
grammed by macros created on the Communicator touch panel. See user’s guide of the Touch panel, section Macro editor, for more  
information about this functionality. Note that the General Purpose Inputs accept 24 volt maximum.  
DC OUT  
This fuse protected mono jack socket provides a +12 VDC voltage and maximum 1,5 ampere. The DC OUT socket has ground  
(GND) in the middle and +12V on external pin. This is opposite of the Barco Touch Panel Communicator power connection. So, a  
cross cable is needed when connecting the DC OUT directly to the Touch Panel.  
USB port  
The communication interface is equipped with a master USB port, type “A” connector (F). This USB port is for future expansion.  
10/100 BASE - T  
The DP-1500 projector can be connected to a LAN (local area network) using one of the Ethernet ports (G) on the communication  
interface. Once connected to the LAN, users are capable of accessing the projector from any location, inside or outside (if allowed)  
their company network using the Communicator software. This software locates the projector on the network in case there is a DHCP  
server or the user can insert the correct IP-address of the projector to access the projector. Once accessed, it is possible to check  
and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote diagnostics, control and monitoring of the projector can then become a daily and  
very simple operation. The network connectivity permits to detect potential errors and consequently improve the time to servicing.

7. Input & communication unit  
As there is a need to daisy chain projectors when they are in Ethernet network, an Ethernet switch is build in. the incoming network  
is hereby available for the internal PC and for the next device in the chain. In this way a ’star’ network interconnection can be avoid.  
The switch used is a stand alone 10/100Mbit Ethernet switch. This assures no inuence on the network speed. Whenever a slow  
(10Mbit) device is connected the speed between the 100Mbit devices remains 100Mbit.

7.4 About General Purpose Inputs & Outputs (GPIO)  
General Purpose inputs  
Eight (8) opto-isolated general purpose inputs are available. These inputs are used to trigger the execution of macro les. For more  
explanation about the association of a macro to a GPI, consult the user guide of the Communicator touch panel.  
Input voltage  
The inputs can be directly driven from a TTL or CMOS output.  
Minimum voltage : Vmin = 3,3 V  
Maximum voltage : Vmax = 24 V  
External power supply  
When interfacing with contact closure outputs, an external power supply needs to be provided. Depending upon the conguration a  
suitable pull-up resistor needs to be added as well.

Cables  
When long cable connections are required the use of shielded cables with twisted pairs is recommended. One twisted pair is to be  
assigned to each GP Input pair.  
How to make the connection  
When the power supply used to provide the DC voltage is isolated from ground (for example in the case of an AC adapter) it is  
recommended that minus pole of that power supply is connected to ground (or to the projector chassis). This will avoid high common  
mode voltages at the projector GP Inputs. If that same power supply is used for other parts of the system, take care not to create  
ground loops. In any case when shielded cables are used that shield should be connected to the projector chassis.  
General Purpose outputs  
Eight (8) opto-isolated outputs are available, where seven are general purpose and one for a xed purpose. The seven general  
purpose outputs can be controlled via software while the xed output provides the status of the system. When this output is closed  
(current is owing), then the system is OK.  
About an output  
The output can generate a falling edge, rising edge, toggle or continuous toggle.  
Generate Falling Edge – generate a falling edge on the external GPO port if the present state of the output is high. If the  
present state of the external GPO is low, no edge will be generated.  
Generate Rising Edge – generate a rising edge on the external GPO port if the present state of the output is low. If the present  
state of the external GPO is high, no edge will be generated.  
Generate Toggle – generate a toggle on the external GPO port. If the present state of the output is low, a rising edge will be  
generated, followed by a falling edge. If the present state of the output is high, a falling edge will be generated, followed by a  
rising edge. The rate of toggle will be the vertical sync rate (edge transition at each vsync).  
Generate Continuous Toggle - This command will generate a continuous toggle of the external GPO port. This toggle will  
continue until a Generate Falling Edge, Generate Rising Edge, or Generate Toggle command is received. The rate of toggle  
will be the vertical sync rate (edge transition at each vsync).

8. Communicator touch panel  
8.1 Introduction  
Communicator Touch Panel for digital cinema projectors  
The Communicator Touch Panel is designed for multi-user command and control, the Communicator enables users to learn quickly  
and operate efciently - using an elegant and exible touch panel interface. The interface’s commonality means that operators  
can intuitively use any model in the product line, without restriction, and its user-friendly nature translates directly into a short and  
enjoyable learning curve.  
Image 8-1  
Flexible touch panel interface  
The touch panel interface can be mounted upon a swivel arm which easily ts on top of the DP-1500 projector. One central locking  
mechanism of the swivel arm allows an instant xation of the touch panel interface in any position.  
The touch panel interface can also be installed further away from the DP-1500 projector. For that you can use a serial (RS232) cable  
up to 10 meter or an Ethernet cable up to 50 meter to realize a direct data communication between the DP-1500 projector and the  
Communicator Touch Panel.  
The touch panel interface can also be connected with a Local Area Network (LAN) just like the DP-1500 projector. In this case both  
devices can communicate with each other as well.  
The touch panel interface requires a voltage supply +12 VDC and 1,5 ampere. Note that the DP-1500 projector has a 12 VDC  
output which can be used to power up the touch panel interface. Nevertheless, the use of a separate +12 VDC adaptor (1,5 ampere  
minimum) is required in case the touch panel interface is installed more then a few meters away from the DP-1500 projector.  
A crossed DC cable has to be used when connecting the +12 VDC output from the Input & Communication  
unit of the DP-1500 projector directly with the Touch Panel interface.

10. Projector registration  
10.1 Introduction  
Overview  
The current projector is DCI compliant and should be registered by Barco. Therefore, the digital certicate inside the projector will  
be used to secure encryption key communication between the projector and the rest of the theatre system (server and theatre man-  
agement system). The lm distributor will send keys to the theatre that are unique for the installed trusted digital cinema equipment  
of that theatre. The lm distributor will nd its information about a theatre in the same database as where the projector is registered.  
Barco plays as an intermediate station between the theatre and the lm distributor.  
Once a projector is registered, the uploaded data can be changed via the update procedure.

11. Maintenance  
11.1 Cleaning the lens  
To minimize the possibility of damage to optical coatings, or scratches to lens surfaces, we have developed  
recommendations for cleaning. FIRST, we recommend you try to remove any material from the lens by blowing  
it off with clean, dry deionized air. DO NOT use any liquid to clean the lenses.  
Necessary tools  
Toraysee TM cloth (delivered together with the lens kit). Order number : R379058.  
How to clean the lens ?  
Proceed as follow :  
1. Always wipe lenses with a CLEAN TorayseeTM cloth.  
2. Always wipe lenses in a single direction.  
Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.  
3. Do not leave cleaning cloth in either an open room or lab coat pocket, as doing so can contaminate the cloth.  
4. If smears occur when cleaning lenses, replace the cloth. Smears are the rst indication of a dirty cloth.  
CAUTION: Do not use fabric softener when washing the cleaning cloth or softener sheets when drying the  
cloth.  
Do not use liquid cleaners on the cloth as doing so will contaminate the cloth.  
Other lenses can also be cleaned safely with this TorayseeTM cloth.

To avoid convergence drift the position of the DMD is xed with 4 screws per channel. These screws have to be released to enable  
the convergence mechanism.  
CAUTION: Do not turn the convergence control knobs prior to releasing the four convergence lock screws.  
Neglecting may result in permanent damage of the convergence adjustment mechanism.

The test pattern illustrated above is specially designed for convergence purposes. The test pattern has three red arrows numbered  
from 1 to 3 and three green arrows numbered from 4 to 6. These numbers and colors correspond with the numbers and colors of  
the extended control knobs (image 12-5). The direction of the arrow shows the movement of the channel color (red or green) when  
turning the corresponding knob in the direction indicated by the arrow marked on the knob.  
The three convergence control knobs of one channel stand in relation with each other. So, a change to one  
of them will also effect the adjustment results of the two others. Therefore, all three control knobs have to  
be alternately and repeatedly adjusted until the projected color is perfectly converged with the blue reference  
color of the test pattern.  
Adjustment range  
The adjustment range is limited to approximately 30 pixels in both directions.  
One turn (360°) of a control knob relates to an approximately 30 pixel displacement on the screen.  
When changing the adjustment direction there will be some play of approximately one turn (360°).
