Only clean the porthole in case dust is clearly visible upon the surface. Use an optical cloth.

7

Dust in general

Clean the projector exterior (housing). Report on cleanliness of booth!

See cleaning procedure

8

Dust in general

Check the condition (hot state) of the light pipe and prism by looking for artifacts in the projected full white and full black patterns.

If artifacts are visible diagnose the integration rod. See "Rod diagnostic".

Replace the integration rod In case the integration rod causes the artifacts. See "Removal of the integrator rod".

Replace the complete Light Processor Unit in case the prism causes the artifacts. See "Light Processor assembly".

9

Diagnostics

Check actual diagnostics after 1 hour play with black image. See user guide of the Communicator software.

Note any irregularities and follow up. Take the necessary measurements if required.

10

Diagnostics

Run self tests. See user guide of the Communicator software

Note any irregularities and follow up. Take the necessary measurements if required.

11

Diagnostics

Create a diagnostic package and check the log files inside the package.

Use the diagnostic package reader and note any irregularity.

12

Diagnostics

Verify Link Decryptor clock. Time must be set to UTC/GMT time

Only a deviation of 15 minutes is allowed. See Communicator software.

13

Software version

Check for the latest version of Barco and TI software. See user guide of the Communicator software. The latest software version can be downloaded from the secured Barco web site.

Upgrade the projector software with the latest version. See user guide of the projector toolset.

14

Info-T's

Check if all Info-T's are implemented. Note that the Info-T's are listed on the secured Barco web site.

If not, implement all Info-T's and update the projector service docket.

15

Cooling circuit

Check the condition of the tubing of the liquid cooling circuit for degradation, UV cracking, kinking of tubes, leakage.

Replace damaged parts immediately. See "Liquid cooling circuit".

16

Cooling circuit

Replace the liquid of the cooling circuit. (drain, refill, expel air)

See chapter "Liquid cooling circuit".

18

Electrical connections

Check the torque values/general condition of all critical electrical connections and components. Use a torque wrench to verify the torque values of the critical electrical connections listed:

  • Nuts (x2) of the SPG socket inside the lamp house: 9 Nm.

  • Cathode cable nut for the lamp cathode socket: 17Nm

  • Hexagon socket head cap screw at the lamp cathode socket : 2,5 Nm.

  • Nuts (x4) of the LAMP OUT ports of the LPS unit: 4 Nm

Do not release the nuts to check the torque. Just verify.

19

Lamp Module

Check the UV blocker of the lamp house for dust, burn damage, degradation, cracks, etc. Note that in case of a passive 3D projection system the UV blocker has an adapted 3D coating.

Only clean the UV blocker in case dust is clearly visible upon the surface of the UV blocker (both sides). See "Cleaning the UV blocker of the Lamp House".

Replace the UV blocker in case of burn damage, degradation, cracks, etc. See "Replacement of the UV blocker".

20

Lamp Module

Check the reflector of the lamp house for dust, degradation, cracks, etc.

Only clean the reflector in case dust is clearly visible upon the surface of the reflector. Take the lamp house to another room and use compressed air to blow away the dust from the reflector. See "Cleaning the UV blocker of the Lamp House".

Replace the reflector in case of burn damage, degradation, cracks, etc. See "Replacement of the lamp reflector".

21

Lamp Module

Visual inspection of the lamp anode and cathode connectors of the lamp house.

Replace the lamp house in case of degradation, damage, etc. See "Removal of the lamp house".

22

Lamp Module

Visual inspection of the lamp anode and cathode cables of the lamp house.

Replace the lamp house in case of degradation, damage, etc. See "Removal of the lamp house".

23

Lamp Module

Check motors (motorized lamp house) and manual adjustments. Lubricate if needed.

24

Lamp Module

Check the positional integrity of automatic lamp alignment/CLO.

Perform auto alignment. Manual adjustment afterwards should not improve light output.

25

Lens holder

Check the lens holder shift functionality (up/down & left/right). Lubricate where needed.

Use the local keypad and the Communicator software to shift.

26

Lens holder

Check the positional integrity of motorized adjustments by switching Macro's.

27

Lens holder

Check the focus uniformity.

Adjust the lens holder (Scheimpflug) ONLY if needed. See "Scheimpflug adjustment".

28

Lens

Check the optic surfaces of the lens input and output for dust.

Only clean the input and/or output side in case dust is clearly visible upon the surfaces. Use an optical cloth. Note that a lens removal requires a home and return action. See user guide of the Communicator software.

29

Lens

Check the lens Zoom & Focus motors.

Use the local keypad and the Communicator software to Zoom and to Focus.
