6 Activation and Checkout
Now the installation is complete, the time has come to activate the enclosure and make sure it is
working properly.
 Be aware that once the enclosure has had power applied to it, the heaters will get hot and the
fans will start to turn. Make sure that your hands and any cables or other objects are clear of
both of these areas before applying power to the enclosure.
1. Clear enclosure and projectors of all debris.
2. Set up the projector in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Focus the projector, then close the enclosure cover.
4. The system is now ready for use.
Note
The enclosure can be secured with padlock at this point. Only qualified personnel should be accessing
the enclosure.
7 Operation
See section 4 for detailed operating instructions.
 Regardless of whether the projector is in use, power must be maintained to the enclosure
at ALL TIMES. The Digital Enclosure Control system will work 24/7 to ensure that optimum
temperature and humidity are maintained, preventing condensation, overheating and
freezing. This is critical to attaining optimum projector lifetime.
 The cooling fans will only turn when power is applied to the enclosure. Fans will stop turning
when power is cut to the enclosure, but the heater may remain hot to the touch for up to one
hour – be careful when opening the enclosure immediately following a power down.
 Unless the enclosure or projector is undergoing routine maintenance, the enclosure should be
closed and securely latched at all times.
 Only authorized personnel should open the enclosure (see maintenance warnings in the next
chapter).
 If the safe operating temperature is exceeded, the over-temperature shutdown feature may
engage and temporarily cut off power to the projector. Once the temperature reaches acceptable
levels, power will be automatically restored. This is extremely unlikely to occur during hours of
darkness when the projector is in use. To avoid nuisance cutoffs, set the Top Temp and Cutoff
Temp settings to their maximum (see chapter 4)
 Do not routinely operate projector in full sun in hot weather. The enclosure has not been
designed to protect the projector in this extreme condition.
