Kodak EKTAGRAPHIC AF-2 - Operating the Projector; Basic Operation; Slide Advancement; Tray Management

The power cord, permanently attached to the projector,
has a 3·prong polarized plug
for connection to a 110· to
125·volt , 60 Hz outlet of the grounding type. The cord can
also
be connected to a conventional 2·prong wall receptacle.
To do this, however, a 2·prong adapter must
be used and
the wire attached
to the adapter must be connected to a
suitable ground. The faceplate screw
on the receptacle box
can
be used if the box is grounded; otherwise a cold·water
pipe
or other solid ground will be needed.
2. Connect the remote control cord
to the projector with the
small
ORIENTATION DOT (Figure 3) on the cord·plug facing up.
NOTE: The white dot on the plug of the remote control
assembly
for your projector denotes a 5·conductor cord.
This assembly,
or an exact duplicate, must be used with
the Model AF·2 Projector
for all applications, including in·
stallations where one or more
KODAK Remote Extension
Cords are employed.
3.
If a loaded slide tray is not on the projector, install one at
this time. Use the procedure described above.
4.
Set the automatic timer at M. Move the selector switch
to either
LOW or HIGH.
5. If you have placed an additional slide in the projector
gate,
as described on page 6, this slide will now be projected
on the screen. If you have placed a square of cardboard in
the gate, the screen will be dark. Otherwi se, the screen will
be bright. If there is no image, momentarily depress the
forward button on the projector or the remote control to
project the first slide.
6. Focus the image
on the screen, using the focus knob or
the remote·control focus lever. Only the first image requires
focusing; the remaining images will
be automatically fo·
. cused.
(See page 5 for focusing instructions for the zoom
lens.)
7. Center the image vertically
on the screen (elevating
wheel).
8. Level the screen image (leveling foot).
9. Move the selector
to OFF until you are ready to start
projecting.
operating the
projector
At this point the projector should have been prepared for
operation
as described in the previous section. Now move
the selector switch to
LOW or HIGH , depending on which
level of illumination is best suited
to your projection situa·
tion.
(If your slide show has been designed for automatic pro·
jection, set the
timer at 5, 8, or 15. The slide·changing
mechanism will then
be actuated automatically and each
slide will
be shown for the number of seconds you have
selected.)
FORWARD AND REVERSE BUTTONS
To project the slide with the next higher identification num·
ber, momentarily depress the
forward button; the slide tray
will rotate one slide space in the forward (counterclockwise)
direction. Depress the reverse button
to rotate the tray one
slide space
in the reverse (clockwise) direction. (Either but·
ton can
be used to override automatic·timer operation, if
desired.)
IMPORTANT: When you use the reverse button, press it
firmly . If this button is not firmly depressed, the slide tray
may rotate
in a forward direction.
REMOTE CONTROL
The forward and reverse buttons on the remote control
function the same
as those on the projector.
The focusing lever
on the remote control performs the
same function
as the focus knob on the projector.
RANDOM PROJECTION
To project a slide out of sequence:
1. With one hand, firmly depress the select button and hold
it down.
2. Rotate the slide tray with the other hand until the number
of the slide you want
to project is opposite the gate index on
the projector.
3. Release the select button. The selected slide will
be im·
mediately projected.
NORMAL SLlDE·TRAY REMOVAL
If the zero position is at the gate ind~x, simply lift off the
tray. Otherwise:
1. With the projector turned on, depress the select button
firmly and hold it down .
2. Rotate the slide
tray-in either direction-until the zero
position is opposite the gate index.
3. Release the select button and
lift off the tray.
EMERGENCY SLIDE-TRAY REMOVAL
In the event that the slide·changing mechanism becomes
inoperative
as the result of a defective slide becoming lodged
in the projector gate, the tray usually will need to
be removed
in order to eliminate the trouble. If the tray does not ad-
vance, depress either the forward
or reverse button. If this
does not free the stuck slide, follow the tray· removal pro·
cedure given
on the next page.
