1 Introduction
The wide variety of new possibilities to combine different projector and interface technologies to
create customer specific Atlas Display Walls has lead to the creation of a new and more concise
nomenclature. The brand ATLAS remains as a generic term for Display Walls from Barco Control
Rooms. The single variants on projection units differing in projection technology are expanded by
a mnemonic expression, e. g.:
ATLAS 67 CS4
ATLAS 84 CS4
Projection unit with Poly-Silicon LCD technology and 67 inch screen
diagonal, SXGA (screen ratio: 5 by 4)
Projection unit with Poly-Silicon LCD technology and 84 inch screen
diagonal, SXGA (screen ratio: 5 by 4)
This manual describes design, function, operation and maintenance of the large screen rear projec-
tion system ATLAS 67 CS4 and ATLAS 84 CS4 of Barco Control Rooms.
ATLAS CS4 allows you to display a wide variety of common video and RGB sources. The display
can be controlled via an IR remote control or via an integrated keypad.

dangerous voltage potential and risk of electric shock! Refer all projector service to a qualified
BARCO service center.
Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions since improper adjust-
ment of the other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a quali-
fied technician to restore the product to normal operation.
Call for service in the following conditions :
! When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
! If liquid has been spilled into the device.
! If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
! If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed.
! If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged;
! If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used original BARCO re-
placement parts or authorized replacement parts which have the same characteristics as the
BARCO original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in degraded performance and reli-
ability, fire, electric shock or other hazards. Unauthorized substitutions may void warranty.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to this unit, ask the service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the unit is in proper operating condition.
1.4.1 Precautions

2.1 Design
ATLAS CS4 is a modular rear projection system for the construction of large Display Walls. The
technologies used guarantee the best optical properties for high-quality presentation of information
with very simple integration into higher-level systems.
Technology
ATLAS CS4 combines the latest modern projection technology with sophisticated electronics and
solid mechanics. This design results in high image quality and reliability.
Application Fields
ATLAS CS4 can be used wherever a large-area presentation of computer data or video is required.
It is designed for continuous operation (24h).
High-quality and large-area displaying of monitor contents is becoming increasingly important
Simple data presentations are being increasingly supplemented by multimedia applications with
video displays. ATLAS CS4 provides optimum solutions which also satisfy the highest demands.
ATLAS CS4 is multimedia-compatible since it can be connected to any current source (digital and
analog camcorder sources, analog video tape sources, DVD, Laserdisc, digital video tape sources,
computer data sources). Audio reproduction is possible by connecting amplifiers or active boxes to
the audio socket. Personal computers with the following graphics adapters can be connected as the
data sources: SXGA, XGA, SVGA, VGA. Workstations, Apple Macintosh and Power Macintosh
are also supported. Remote real-time switching is possible between all sources.
User Friendly
The rear panel of an ATLAS CS4 projection cube gives free access to all control elements. The only
maintenance work, i. e. cleaning the dust filter and replacing the lamps, can be done within few
seconds and makes no re-adjustment necessary.
Environmentally Friendly
The burning life of the used 100 Watt lamps is very high at 8000 hours. This long lamp lifetime
and the low power consumption do not only reduce the cost of ownership but also contribute to
saving energy and natural resources.
Flexible Configuration
ATLASCS4 DISPLAY WALLS consists of a modular aluminum structure on which mechanical and
optical components are fixed. This makes it possible to build curved display walls with any size of
screen.

2.2 Properties of ATLAS CS4
ATLAS CS4 can be used as one large monitor with a screen diagonal of 67 or 84 inches. The
technologies used guarantee the best optical properties for high-quality presentation of both com-
puter data and video displays:
! High, Constant Reading Accuracy Over the Complete Display Panel
Optimally adjusted high-performance lens systems guarantee a distortion-free and sharp image.
! Bright Displays
A 100W UHP™ lamp provides a high luminous flux which is passed on at great efficiency by
the illumination system.
! High Contrast
The screen has a surface which absorbs ambient light falling on it and increases the contrast.
! Easy Adjustment and Low-maintenance
Readjustment of the components is not required. The operation time of the lamps is very high
at 8000 hours. Lamp and filters can be replaced without special training from the front.
! Ready for any application
The source is automatically recognized. The projector has intelligent and user-adjustable prior-
ity switching.

! Housing: The Atlas system is a compact mechanical housing especially designed to meet any
given requirements concerning set up, resolution, and operational conditions. Due to its flexi-
ble structure different projector types and screens can be mounted. The closed structure pre-
vents incident light or dust from entering the unit.
! Projection unit: The projection unit consists of three components: the lamp module, the light
path for optimization of the light distribution and the X Cube and dichroic prism system.
! Deflection mirror: a mirror in the top part of the housing deflects the light onto the rear of the
projection screen.
! Screen: patented seamless screen mounting via high precision cuts, supported by very fine steel
pins results in a nearly not perceptible optical seam.
! Fan: a fan in the housing ensures that the unit is sufficiently cooled.

3.1.1 Lamp Module
The lamp module generates the light for the subsequent projection. The lamp (100 Watt UHP (Ul-
tra High Performance) lamp) has an operation time of 8000 hours.
3.1.2 Illumination Unit
The illumination unit consists of the lens system for uniform illumination of the LCDs and the
electronics for lamp power supply and monitoring.
!
Optical Integrator
An optical integrator consisting out of two multi-segment lenses guarantees a uniform illumi-
nation of the LCDs and thus of the screen.
3.1.3 Projection Unit
The light from the lamp is split with dichroic mirrors into red, green and blue light to illuminate
three LCD panels, each of which contains the respective color-information for the red, green and
blue parts of the projected image. The LCD panels are attached to a cubical prism called X Cube
which recombines the three light paths, so the image is projected using a single lens.

3-panel Poly-Silicion LCD
! Poly-Silicon TFT-LCD
The LCD panels are based on Poly-Silicon technology. Poly-Silicon material consists of nu-
merous small crystals leading to small circuitry. The results are a big aperture (ratio of a pixel’s
shutter area to it’s total area), high speed and reliability. The panels have 1,310,720 (SXGA
1280×1024) pixels.
! Lens System
The projection lens system is positioned behind the X Cube. It projects the image resulting on
the LCD’s via the deflection mirror onto the rear of the screen module.

3.1.4 Screen Module
The image is generated in the screen . It consists of the optical screen and a frame with which the
screen is exactly mounted onto the Atlas Structure.
! Fresnel Lens
The screen consists of a Fresnel lens and a Front Element Screen. The Fresnel lens deflects the
light coming from the projection lens system such that it falls perpendicularly onto the front
element screen.
! Front Element
The front element screen guarantuees that the light is distributed horizontally and vertically,
while maintaining a high contrast.
! Texture of Surface
The surface of the screen has a special non-glare texture. This texture minimizes the direct re-
flection of the light of the surrounding and contributes also to the high contrast of the screen.

6.3 Projector address
The projector's address may be set to any value between 0 and 255 (see 'Change projector address'
in chapter 'Service mode). When the address is set, the projector can be controlled now by the RCU
for addresses between 0 and 9.
The projector can also be controlled by computer, e.g. IBM PC (or compatible), Apple MAC, etc.
for addresses between 0 and 255.
A projector will respond to a RCU set to an address of '0' regardless of what address
is set in the projector itself.
6.3.1 Using the RCU
The RCU is default programmed with address 0, 'zero address'. With that 'zero address' pro-
grammed into the RCU, every projector, without exception will listen to the commands given by
this RCU. If it is necessary to control a specific projector, than enter the projector address into the
RCU (only when that address is between 0 and 9). The projector with the corresponding address
will listen to that specific RCU.
6.3.2 Displaying a Projector Address
Press the ADDRESS key (recessed key on the RCU) with a pencil. The projector's address will be

How to find the correct values for the displayed item?
During the installation of a file with LOAD, the horizontal period, the total number of vertical lines
and the interlaced mode are automatically measured and filled in the menu table. These values will
be available when starting up the EDIT procedure of an active file.
Do not adjust these settings on an active file, they are used to identify the input
source file.
If the value for Horizontal Total Pixels is wrong, sampling mistakes (small vertical bars in the
projected image) will be seen in the image. Select Total and adjust the pixel quantity. Adjust for
zero bars (hint: if the number of bars increase, adjust in the other direction).
The Active Pixels determine the width of the window on the screen. This value is normally given
in the source specifications. If not, adjust until full image is displayed (no missing pixels).
Horizontal Start gives the number of pixels between the beginning of the input signal and the start
of the video information in the signal.
The Horizontal Period is already filled in with the correct value of the active file.
The Vertical Total Lines are already filled when an active file is selected to be edited.
Active Lines is the number of horizontal lines determining the height of the projected image. This
value is normally given in the specification of the source. If not, adjust until full image height is
displayed (no missing lines)
Vertical start gives the number of lines between the start of the input signal and start of the image
on the screen.
Interlaced [On] or [Off]: this selection is automatically filled when active file has to be edited. If
the image is wrong due to mismeasurement, use the ENTER key to toggle between [On] and [Off].
(for interlaced images, one frame contains two fields).
Read AMDS (AMDS = automatic mode detection & synchronization): During the installation of a
file with LOAD, the system automatically measured the horizontal period, the total vertical lines
and the interlaced mode. When selecting Read AMDS, the system re-measures the above indicated
items.

! Source Number
The source number of a non-active source can be changed to any other source number. This
makes it possible to create a file for future source numbers.
! Clamp Position
Clamping determines the black level of the signal. The clamp pulse can be related to the lead-
ing or the trailing edge of the sync pulse. Use the ENTER key to toggle between [leading] and
[trailing].
! Clamp Delay
The time between the leading edge of the clamp pulse and the locked edge of the sync pulse.
Can be any value between 0 and 255. Change the value by pushing the cursor key right or left.
! Clamp Width
The width of the clamp pulse. Can be any value between 0 and 255. Change the value by
pushing the cursor key left or right.
! Field Polarity
The field polarity function is used for interlaced images. Both rasters of the image could be
shifted in a wrong way (double lines are visible in the image). This can be corrected by forcing
the field polarity to [neg] or [pos]. Use the ENTER key to toggle between [pos] and [neg].
! Field Select: Default [both]
The field select is only used for interlaced images. One frame of an interlaced image contains
two fields, an even and an odd field. The choice exists to project [both] fields on the screen or
only the [even] or [odd] field. This can be useful for 3D projection. Use the ENTER key to tog-
gle between [both], [even] and [odd].
! Vertical Refresh [sync/async]
The way of updating the image information on the LCD panels. Not available for PAL-NTSC-
SECAM sources. This option will be displayed in gray.
*
For sources with a vertical frequency up to 60 Hz: the vertical refresh rate is the same as the
vertical frequency of the incoming source. This is a necessity to project moving images without
'motion artifacts'. For stationary images with a vertical frequency up to 60 Hz it is still possible
to use asynchronous refresh. When loading Pal, Secam, NTSC-files the synchronous mode is
default, for all other sources below 60 Hz asynchronous mode is default.
*
For sources with a vertical frequency higher that 60 Hz: the vertical refresh is different than
the vertical frequency of the incoming source. Synchronous refresh cannot be used.
! Vertical Sync Polarity [leading] or [trailing]
The vertical refresh can be synchronized with the leading sync edge or trailing sync edge. De-
fault on [leading].
Toggling to [trailing] is only necessary for special applications where the trailing edge of the
sync signal has to be taken as a reference. Use the ENTER key to toggle between [leading] or
[trailing]
Press EXIT to leave the Edit File Option menu.

11 Maintenance and Servicing
ATLAS CS4 requires very little maintenance and servicing. Maintenance operations are neverthe-
less necessary at regular intervals to guarantee good operational performance.
This chapter describes maintenance and servicing of ATLAS CS4.
Only authorized personnel should carry out other maintenance work not explicitly
mentioned in this user manual!
Never open the access cover without first disconnecting the power supply cord!
Measurements and tests with the opened device may be carried out only in the
factory or by specially trained personnel, due to the dangers of electrical shock.

11.1 Cleaning of Screens
11.1.1 General
Screens consist of single or double screen elements. Each screen element has a delicate optical
screen surface structure dedicated to its functionality. The optical surface can easily be damaged if
the screen is handled incorrectly. Only handle screens while wearing gloves with a soft texture (eg.
cotton gloves).
Avoid touching the rear beaded surface unnecessarily. It is easily damaged.
11.1.2 Cleaning the Screen
The screen is a high-precision optical component. It is made of plastic and is not
scratch-proof. Only use a soft, damp cloth when cleaning.
If the screen is only slightly dusty or is showing particles a vacuum cleaner with a soft bristle or a
feather duster is recommended. Clean compresses air can be used, but it makes the screen stati-
cally charged, attracting airborn particles. The brushing direction should always be along the opti-
cal structures in the screen (circular in case of fresnel).
If the dirt on the screen is heavier, possibly from fingerprints, soft lint-free cloth or paper towel
can be used. If required the screen may be cleaned with a cleaning agent, such as ordinary window
cleaner with ammonia (not alcohol). Never apply cleaning solution directly onto the screen sur-
face. Instead, add cleaning agent to the cloth or towel, then wipe the surface. It is important that
the screen should be completely dry after treatment.
Never use cleaning agents with solvents as these may destroy the screen. Also, never
rub hard or persistently on the screen in order to remove stains, as this will cause
deformations in the surface which will appear as stains.
Don’t store screens at temperatures exceeding 38ºC (100ºF)

13 Configuring Notes
A number of design and ergonomic conditions must be considered when planning the installation
of ATLAS CS4. In addition to mounting dimensions, the following sections also include anthropo-
technical requirements which must be observed in a specific application.

13.1 Floor Space And Maintenance Area
Sufficient floor space and maintenance area must be available when installing ATLAS CS4
Floor Space
The floor space must have a sufficient load carrying capacity and be sufficiently flat (according to
DIN 18202). It must not sag by more than 1 millimeter under the load of the ATLAS CS4. A ce-
ment, wood or false floor is permissible.
The load of the ATLAS CS4 is transmitted to the floor via adjustable feet.
No installations (venting ducts, sockets etc.) must be present in the floor in the area of the feet or
of the lower anchoring devices. An area of at least 15 centimeters must be kept free around each
foot. The loading capacity in the area of the feet must be sufficient. Height differences up to
±5 millimeters can be compensated using the adjustable feet.

Maintenance Area
The floor space for a Atlas Unit is calculated from the basic area of the structure. A maintenance
area must be provided behind each Atlas Unit over the complete width. This area must be perma-
nently accessible. The exact regulations for such a maintenance area can be obtained from the
specifications for working premises.

Linear and polygonal set-up of ATLAS CS4
(All dimensions measured in millimeters!)
The Atlas Units can have a linear or curved arrangement. With a curved design, the modular alu-
minum structure is built with angled connecting plates. The angle between two columns can vary
between 0 and 8°.

13.2 Overall Height
The installation room must be sufficiently high. Sufficient space (recommended > 100 millime-
ters) must be provided above the Atlas Units. The total height results from the height of the sup-
porting construction plus the height of the Atlas Units with feet plus the vacant space above the
modules.

13.3 Viewing Distance and Angle
When planing the installation of ATLAS CS4, anthropotechnical factors such as the human field of
vision must be considered in addition to design requirements. General rules for the viewing angle
and distance will not be specified here since they depend on the field of application. The notes in
this section are therefore only recommendations which can be observed for a particular applica-
tion.
In the case of permanent, intensive viewing of the display, the display should be in the field of vi-
sion of both eyes of the observer. The following figure shows the horizontal and vertical angles of
the field of vision with both eyes. An optimum field of vision can be defined for the horizontal
field.
Figure 13-5
Human field of vision for both eyes
The maximum viewing distance depends on the minimum character size used. Characters and up-
per-case letters should appear to the eye at an angle of vision greater than 18 angular minutes. This
corresponds to a viewing distance less than 200 times the character height.

The screen of the ATLAS CS4 can be viewed at angles greater than 45 degrees without problems.
The vertical viewing angle has been designed such that there is no difference whether the observer
is standing or sitting.
In addition to the viewing angles, the room illumination should also be considered when installing
ATLAS CS4. Diffuse ambient light measured horizontally up to 300 lux and vertically up to 500
lux is no problem if the displayed image has a sufficiently high contrast.

13.4 Room Ventilation
The electrical power consumption of typically 220 Watts per illumination unit can be used as a
measure for the heat dissipation of ATLAS CS4 into the room.
It is favorable to pass fresh and clean air through ventilation ducts in the floor below the dark
boxes. The inlets should be provided with replaceable dust filters.
The electronic boards are very sensitive against being soiled with particles of e. g. carbon. Carbon
dust is taken up by the circuit boards thus causing short-circuits. When installing ATLAS CS4 in
critical environments like coal-fired power stations etc. please make sure that there are no coal
particles suspended in the air.
