Source Lamp Replacement 

 
1.

 

To  verify  that  the  source  lamp  needs  replacing,  perform  the  test 
described on page 4, under Setup. 

 
2.

 

Close and latch the unit shut and wait for the unit to turn off. 

 
3.

 

Turn  the  unit  over  and  remove  the  two  Phillips  head  screws  in  the 
front  of  the  unit  and  the  two  black  Phillips  head  screws  on  the  rear 
panel. 

 
4.

 

Carefully separate the halves of the case. These are connected by a thin 
ribbon  cable.  Use  extreme  care  not  to  damage  the  cable  when 
separating the two halves. 

 
5.

 

Loosen the lamp retaining screw. Slide the lamp out of its hole. 

 
6.

 

Unplug the lamp wires from their posts. Plug the new lamp wires onto 
the  post  and  slide  the  lamp  fully  into  its  hole.  Gently  tighten  the 
retaining screw.  Over tightening will break the lamp. 

 
7.

 

Place  the  two  halves  of  the  unit  back  together  being  careful  not  to 
pinch the ribbon cable between them. 

 
8.

 

Replace the four Phillips head screws. 

 
9.

 

Perform the software calibration.
