Safety and warning guidelines

Read all safety and warning guidelines before installing or operating the projector.

This projector is intended for use in a non-cinema environment.

This projector must be operated in an environment that meets the operating range specification. Use only the attachments and/or accessories recommended by Christie. Use of others may result in the risk of fire, shock, or personal injury.

Warning! If not avoided, the following could result in death or serious injury.

• This product must be operated in an environment that meets the operating range as specified in this document.

• Do not look directly into the lens when the light source is on. The extremely high brightness can cause permanent eye damage.

Adjusting the image

Adjusting primary colors

Calibrate the accuracy of primary colors, which can change because of lighting and environmental factors.

All primary colors in the projector are precisely set to pre-established values to ensure overall color performance is optimized and is as accurate as possible. Lighting and other environmental factors may slightly change how these colors appear on your screen. While the change is negligible in most cases, you may prefer to recover the originally intended color performance before trying to match colors from several projectors.

To achieve consistency use a color meter to measure the native primary colors—red, green, blue, and white—as they appear on the screen. On the basis of these new values, which are stored in memory, each projector automatically calculates any necessary corrections to reproduce the original factory colors under the current environmental conditions. This essentially calibrates a projector to its surroundings, compensating for factors such as screen type, light source and/or ambient lighting, and improves color accuracy and consistency in a group of projectors. It ensures a good starting point for further customizing and matching; however, is not critical for all installations.

Configuring system settings

Projector profiles contain the power settings for the RGB laser light source. You can create multiple projector profiles to manage varying screen sizes, brightness requirements, room temperatures, and types of content (such as 2D, 3D, and alternative content).

Configuring the laser power settings using LiteLOC ™ version

2.0

To ensure color and brightness are held at the required levels for your installation, Christie recommends enabling LiteLOC version 2.0 for each laser configuration you create. When you set the required brightness, LiteLOC 2.0 maintains color and only decreases brightness if the system requires it.

When LiteLOC 2.0 is enabled, the projector issues a warning when the brightness target is decreased due to laser limits being reached.

1. To indicate the maximum expected room temperature, select MENU > Configuration > Light

& Output Settings > Max Ambient Temperature.

2. Use the slider to increase and decrease the maximum ambient temperature and select Enter.

The system uses the maximum expected room temperature to calculate the light output. The default maximum expected room temperature setting is 35° C. A lower room temperature generally results in increased brightness and better efficiency. A higher room temperature reduces the maximum power setting available for the lasers. The maximum expected room temperature setting must reflect anticipated operating conditions.

3. To enable LiteLOC version 2.0, select MENU > Configuration > Light & Output Settings >

LiteLOC.

4. Select LiteLOC 2.0.

5. To set the color of white you want to achieve from the laser, entered the required White X and

White Y values.

6. To control the brightness, select Master Laser Power and use the slider to increase or decrease the value.

7. If wanted, the laser settings can be saved to projector profiles (on page 51).

Configuring the laser power settings using LiteLOC ™ version

Configuring system settings

6. Use the slider to increase and decrease the maximum ambient temperature and select Enter.

The system uses the maximum expected room temperature to calculate the light output. The default maximum expected room temperature setting is 25° C. A lower room temperature generally results in increased brightness and better efficiency. A higher room temperature reduces the maximum power setting available for the lasers. The maximum expected room temperature setting must reflect anticipated operating conditions.

7. Select MENU > Image Settings > Color & Gamma > Color Correction Mode.

8. Select Max Drives and to confirm your selection, select Enter.

9. Select MENU > Configuration > Light & Output Settings.

10. To set the approximate red power level, select Red Laser Setpoint and use the slider to increase and decrease the value required for the projector brightness.

System stability may be affected if you set a power level below the minimum power level recommended.

When setting the red power level, Christie recommends setting a level below the maximum limit shown. A value below the maximum limit ensures an optimal brightness that can be maintained over time.

11. To set the green (Green Laser Setpoint) and blue (Blue Laser Setpoint) power levels, repeat step 11.

12. Allow the projector to stabilize.

13. If color or brightness is not at the target level, refine the red, green, and blue power settings to achieve the target by repeating steps 11 and 12.

14. Allow the projector to re-stabilize.

The projector is considered stable when no further adjustments are required and you obtain the same screen state results after two sets of measurements, five minutes apart.

15. To lock the current color and brightness once the correct color and brightness are achieved and the projector has stabilized, select MENU > Configuration > Light & Output Settings >

Communicating with Mirage 4K40-RGB through

Art-Net

Mirage 4K40-RGB supports communications through the Art-NET using the Ethernet connector.

1. Select MENU > Communications > Art-Net Settings.

2. Verify the Enable Art-Net option is disabled.

Disabling Art-Net before configuring it ensures Mirage 4K40-RGB does not accidentally respond to DMX messages destined for other devices on the network.

3. To specify which subnet the projector belongs to, in the Art-Net Subnet field adjust the value between 0 and 15.

The subnet provides expandability beyond the universe level.

4. To confirm your selection, select Enter.

5. To specify which universe the projector belongs to, so it can filter out all other data packets, in the Art-Net Universe field, adjust the value between 0 and 15.

For Art-Net, data is broadcast over an Ethernet network, so every device receives every packet of data, whether the device belongs to that universe or not.

6. To confirm your selection, select Enter.

7. To determine the starting channel for this projector, in the Base Channel field, adjust the value between 1 and 488.

If multiple projectors are used on the same universe and are to be controlled independently, this value must be changed. For example, if both projectors are using the Shutter (20 channels), projector 1 should start at base channel 1 and projector 2 should start at base channel 21.

8. To confirm your selection, select Enter.

9. Select Enable Art-Net.

10. To enable the Art-Net functionality, select Enter.

Art-Net channel listing

There are 512 channels per universe. Mirage 4K40-RGB specifies 24 channels.

Mirage 4K40-RGB has multiple methods of being controlled in addition to Art-Net. If a setting is changed through another interface, the DMX controller can re-assert control by changing the value on the appropriate DMX channel.
