LAMP DIMMING
This lets you select the lamp “dimmer” mode, selecting one of the two
available modes:

1500W-800W: Default settings, the lamp electronically "dims” from
1500W to 800W and mechanically dims from 800W to 0. Visually, the
Dimmer curve is high performance but a slight flicker is noted in some
dimming positions.

1500W-1200W: The lamp electronically “dims” from 1500W to 1200W
and mechanically dims from 1200W to 0. No lamp flicker is visible

maintenance may be required.
