Status overview
Depending on the condition of the projector the status light may have 4 colors: Green, Yellow, Red or Blue. Each color represent a
different state:
Blinking Green Projector is booting up.
Green Projector is running normally.
Yellow Projector is running with warnings. Event can go on but a technical intervention might be necessary
in the near future to prevent a complete stop of the projector.
Red Projector is in error state. Problem could prevent normal operation. Solve the problem before
continuing with the projector.
Blue Projector runs in noti fi cation state. Maintenance action required.
Operational mode
In Operational mode the lasers of the projector are switched OFF but all the electronics of the projector remain fully operational. The
projector is ready to activate the lasers and project the image. The status light is not different between Operational mode and Light
ON mode.
Standby mode
If the projector is in Standby mode then the status light fl ashes every ten seconds. The color of the fl ash depends on the state of
the projector. In other words, the color of the fl ash will be green in normal state (no warnings, no errors, no noti fi cations).
In Standby mode the total power consumption of the projector is less than 15W. All electronics are switched of (including PSUs for
the lasers) except for Cinema Controller board and Local Keypad. Only the following functionalities of the projector remains active:
• Local Keypad
• Router LAN and WAN port fully functional
• USB IN port type “B” (Virtual comport RS232)
• USB OUT port type “A” (To power handheld devices [500mA MAX]. No other functionality supported)
• GPIO port on the Cinema Controller
Pressing the Standby button in Operational mode for 3 seconds puts the projector in Standby mode. After de-conditioning then the
projector goes in Standby mode.
Pressing the Standby button in Standby mode for 3 seconds will awake the projector towards operational mode. The status light will
blink for a few seconds (booting up all inactive boards) and then lights up continuously.
Enter or leave Standby mode can also be done via two dedicated projector commands (USB/Ethernet), or via two prede fi ned Macros
(not editable) with GPIO of the Cinema Controller (not the GPIO of the ICMP), or via the Communicator.
The projector always boots up in the same mode (E.g. Standby or Operational) as it was powered OFF.
4.3 Laser Status
About the Laser Status Light
The Laser Status Light is located at the rear top of the projector (reference 2 image 4-3). The Laser Status Light is a real time
indicator of the laser condition.
