When switching from the dual mode to the single mode the lamp with the longest runtime is switched off.
If the runtimes are equal (if the projector has always been operated in dual mode) then lamp1 is switched out.
When switching to single mode, returning to the dual mode will not be possible in the first 60 seconds, Dual
in the menu is greyed out and LED1 is flickering, thereby preventing hot restrike which may damage the lamp.
10.3 Power mode (only active in the iQG/R 500)
What can be done ?
The lamp power mode can be chosen to be in :
• Full power mode : the total available power is used for the lamps (maximal brightness). This corresponds with the shortest
lamp lifetime (1500 hours)
• Economy mode : the lamps are dimmed, the lifetime is extended to 3000 hours
The choice of the Power mode must be done during the installation of the projector. The switching between the 2 modes can only be
done 6 times and this only during the first 100 hours of the lamp lifetime (considering a dual lamp mode i.e. both lamps are used).
