Notes:
•
Once test 020 is executed, the lamp self-start mode is activated. Every
time a new test is entered, the lamp will self-start. Every time a test is
exited, the lamp will douse. This can be very damaging to lamps. It is
best to leave a lamp lit 20 minutes after starting. At least, let it run for
5 minutes.
•
To run a test with the lamp lit, enter test 020, let it run for 5 minutes,
and then go to the desired test. The lamp will douse on exiting test 020
and re-start after entering the next test. To douse the lamp for further
tests, enter test 022 and the lamp self-starting mode will be exited.
Test 021 - Lamp Standby
If the lamp has been started, this setting will put the lamp in standby mode,
reducing lamp current and brightness. Arc power supply indicators LAMP
ON, STANDBY, START, and IPRES should be lit; SHORT should be
out.
Test 022 - Lamp Off
This setting turns the lamp off and exits the self-starting mode. Arc power
supply indicator SHORT should be lit and all others should be out; unless
the last test executed was the Lamp Standby test (021), in which case the
standby indicator will remain lit. The lamp will also be doused if any
setting outside the range of 020 through 029 is selected. The lamp will re-
start, however, even if no test is to be run, that is, test 030 will start the
bulb and do nothing if you are in the self-starting mode.
Test 023-029
These settings are not really tests, but if the lamp is lit and one of these
settings is entered, the lamp will not douse but will go into standby.
However, re-entering test 020 will cause the lamp to douse and re-start, or
return to 100 percent as in test 021.
