4. Installation of a suitable UPS unit or bypass the power in and outlet for the projector electronics. See chapters "Power loop
through to the projector electronics", page 28 or "Connecting a UPS to the projector electronics", page 29.
5. Installation of the xenon lamp in ca se the xe non lamp is not install
ed in the lamp hous e y et. To install the xenon lamp the lamp
house has to be removed from the projector. To install the x enon lamp correctly and in a safe manner, see the detailed step by

9. R esetting the lam p parameters. The “LAMP INFO” parameters which are stored on the con troller board of the projector MUST
be updated after each installation of an xenon lamp inside the lamp house. Neglecting this update will result in poor performance
and short life time of the xenon lamp . See chapter "Resetting the lam p pa rameters", page 47.
10.R ealignment of the xenon lamp in its reflector. For optimal performance of the xenon lam p it is required to realign the lamp
after installation in th e lamp house. See "Realignment of the lamp in its reflector", pag e 48 for more information.
11. Adjusting the light path. Normally the lens holder and the convergence of the projector is perfectly a djusted at the factory.
Nevertheless, some applications require a readjustment of the lens holder, convergence or both. See procedure "Scheimpflug
adjustment", page 59, to adjust the Scheimpflug and see chapter "Convergence", page 119 to a djust the c onvergence of the light
path.
12.Registration of the projector.TheDP
2K-32B is DCI com pliant and should be registered by Barco. Therefore, the digital c ertifi-
