With the lens "north", the green LCD is at south, the red is east and the blue west. The filter seems orange in colour. My first problem is to find how to remove the distorted filter without damaging anything in the optical unit, since I don't have the service manual. Thnaks again! The start of this thread was about retrofitting one of these projectors with a cheaper metal halide bulb and I would like to attempt to do this.
Could anyone help me out with attempting to trick the circuitry into thinking the correct bulb is there and working? I know it's possible, I just have to figure it out. Also, there is a glass plate that seems to be shielding the light cavity from the rest of the projector that has a crack in it. Is this a polarizing plate, a UV shield, or just a heat shield? Will the crack have a large effect on the output of the projector?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance! For the time being I'm not going to worry about the cracked glass plate, if it becomes an issue I'll be back with more questions. Now I'm trying to find small metal halide bulbs W. All of the bulbs I have found are around 8 inches long.
Are there any distributors that sell metal halide bulbs that are around 2 inches long? Day Member. Interestingly enough, I just acquired one of these projectors as well, though mine is branded as a Polaroid Polaview E same projector, different name.
Mine also has a blown bulb, so I'm wondering: How did you trick it into running without the bulb, mobius? I'd like to try my hand at replacing the bulb with something else too. Tricking the projector After taking the cover and front panel off, you will see two sets of wires running to the ballast for the bulb. The larger set is power, the smaller set is for control signals. There are three wires 5 volts, ground, and signal. I believe that the signal line is held at 5 volts with respect to the signal ground until the the bulb ignites, after that the signal line goes low.
All I did was short the signal line to ground and the projector fired up and I could see the LCD come on I shined a flashlight into the projector and looked in the lens. I'm not sure how safe shorting the signal line is for the control electronics in the long term, but that is how I did it. Good Luck! Thank you! I will try this as soon as I have a chance to play with the projector again. Re: Tricking the projector mobius13 said:.

Sorry I haven't been around, everybody. College has been keeping me busy But, that hasn't kept me from working on the projector.
Do not look into the lens while the projector is being used. If you look directly into this light, it can hurt and damage your eyes. Page 6: Precautions On Handling Avoid setting up in places which are subject to vibration or shocks. If the projector is set up in locations with strong vibration, such as near a motor, or if it is installed inside a vehicle or on board a ship, the projector may be subjected to vibration or shocks which can damage the internal parts and cause malfunctions or accidents.
MENU button This button is used to turn display of the menu screen on and off and to return display to the previous screen. SERIAL connector page 36 This connector is used to con- nect a personal computer to the projector in order to exter- nally control the projector. Page Before Using The Remote Control Unit Before using the remote control unit Inserting the batteries Insert the AA batteries supplied with the remote control unit making sure that the polarities are correct.
Open the battery compartment cover. Push the section with the toward you to remove it. Insert the batteries. Page 11 Operating range of the remote control unit Point the remote control unit toward the remote control signal receptor on the front or the rear of the projector to operate the projector.
Refer to the illustration below for the operating range of the remote control unit. In such cases, the projector will try to turn the lamp on again after 30 seconds have passed. During this time, the power indicator will alternately flash green and orange. The projector is equipped with a lens retracting function which will cause the lens to be retracted automatically when the power is turned off.
Page Screen Requirements Screen requirements This projector is used to project the image onto flat screens. However, the brightness and viewable range will vary depending on which type of screen is used.
When selecting a screen, check the characteristics of the screen to ensure that it is suitable for the intended place of use. And because there is also a function provided for adjusting the height of the lens, the height of the projector can also be adjusted relative to the position of the screen. After determining the projection distance and the setting-up position, adjust the vertical position of the projected picture by carrying out the following procedure.
Page 16 Setting the projector up horizontally If the projector is not set up so that it is horizontal, it will not be possible to obtain a distortion-free picture.
