Replacing a Bulb in an LCD Projector

A Step-by-Step Guide

of 36

Replacing a Bulb in an LCD Projector


BenQ Model #MP622c

Before you begin, be sure you have the right bulb for the

make/model you are working with. The BenQ MP622c uses lamp

unit 6K.06002.001.

of 36

Also keep in mind that changing an LCD bulb, while a relatively

simple procedure, involves handling very costly items. BenQ bulbs

cost in excess of $200. The units themselves are even more

expensive. Bulb replacement should only be done by a trained

technician.

Step 1

Unplug the unit.

Power off, If the unit has

of 36

been running, allow it to cool before proceeding. Be patient. This may take up to 15-20 minutes.

of 36

Step 2

Now you need to access the bulb casing. Use a screwdriver to open the round panel on top of the unit.

Once the screw is fully released, remove the round panel. (Note: The screw will remain attached to the panel.)

of 36

Step 3

The next step is to access the bulb casing.

To do this, use a phillips head screwdriver to release the screw holding it in place. Once again, the screw will remain attached to the unit.

of 36

Step 4

To release the bulb casing, raise the lever.

Gently, but firmly, pull the casing from the unit.

Remove the spent bulb and casing.

of 36

Step 5

Now, simply reverse the process. Insert a new bulb/casing and press gently but firmly in place.

Secure the new bulb by screwing the casing back in place.

Reposition the lever.

of 36

Reattach the round plate.

Plug the unit back in and turn it on.

Replacing a Bulb in an Overhead Projector


3M 1810 - Front View 3M 1810 - Side View

Before you begin, be sure you have the right bulb for your

make/model. Bulb specifications can generally be found printed on the

unit. The model shown above is the 3M 1810. This model takes either

standard or high brightness bulbs.

For a standard bulb, use ENX-82V, 360 W, # 78-8011-1186-1; for a high

brightness bulb, use FXL-82V, 410 W, # 78-8073-7100-6.

of 36

Step 1

Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged.

If the unit has been running, allow it to cool before proceeding.

Step 2

Open the unit by depressing the black latch on the right

side (the same side as the

raised arm).

of 36

Next, carefully lift the platen.

Step 3

Notice the thin metal lever to the right of the bulb (see

arrow).

Gently draw back the

of 36

lever to release the spent bulb. Use your other hand to

collect the spent bulb as it is ejected.

Step 4

Carefully line up the prongs on the bulb with the slots.

Slide the new bulb into

position.

Push gently until the bulb is fully seated in the lamp socket.

of 36

Return the lever to its original position to lock the bulb in place.

Step 5

Close the cover.

of 36

Plug the projector back in and turn it on to test that

the new bulb is functioning

properly.

Connecting an LED Projector to Other Units

Connecting an LED Projector to Other Units


The specifics procedures to follow and cables needed to connect an LED projector

to another device (computer, DVD) may vary with the make/model/age of the

units involved. However, the basics are the same. This tutorial walks you through

one specific system – connecting a Texas Instruments BenQ LED to a Dell laptop

computer and to a Magnavox HDMI DVD.

Texas Instruments BenQ Model #MP622c

Front/Top View

of 36

Connecting the LED Projector to the Dell Laptop Computer.

Step 1

Step 2

You will need a Video

Graphics Array (VGA)

cable to do this. This

cable has both prongs

(green arrow) that are

inserted in the outlet

and side screws (red

arrows) that hold the

device in place.

Connect the VGA cable to the

LED projector by inserting the

prongs on the cable into the

appropriate slot (labeled D-

SUB/COMP.IN on the BenQ) and

securing the cable in place by

tightening the side screws. Do

not over tighten the screws.

Power

Step 3

Your computer is now connected to the LED and images on your

computer will project on the screen. You can choose where to have

the images displayed (computer only, screen only, computer and

screen) by toggling through the various options. Press FN/F8 to

access these options. See screen shot below.

Next, connect the VGA cable

to your computer by

following the same procedure

as above. The VGA port on

this Dell model is located on

the side of the unit. Placement

varies with unit/model.

of 36

Connecting the LED Projector to a Magnavox HDMI DVD.

This connection requires both audio and video connections. Depending on the

plug options available on your DVD unit, you can choose to output the video to

the LED via the VGA port, the video port, or the S-video port. For this

demonstration, I will use an S-video cable. For audio, I will use a stereo to mono

audio cable. (If you do not have a stereo to mono audio cable, you can use a

standard audio cable and an audio y-cable instead. The y-cable merges the two

audio lines into one.)

Step 1

S-video

Plug the S-video cable into

the LED projector. Then

plug the mono (single)

prong of the audio cable

into the LED projector.

Step 2 - Plug the s-video cable and the audio plugs (red and white) into the

appropriate outlets on the DVD player.

HOW TO REGISTER ACTIVEXPRESSION

of 36

1.) Plug in the Activhub into a USB port on your computer.

2.) Open ActivInspire software.

(Note: make sure the Activhub is plugged in prior to opening the

software.)

3.) Click on Configure on the Dashboard

(If you do not see the Dashboard, go to the View > Dashboard in the drop-down menu)

HOW TO REGISTER ACTIVEXPRESSION

of 36

4.) Click Register devices

5.) Click the rectangle with the picture of the ActiExpression and the Register button will appear; click Register.

6) Select the number of devices you wish to register and click Next.

of 36

7.) The next window instructs you as to how to register each device. Activexpressions will register with names “Device 0”, “Device 1”, etc. in the order they are registered. To keep the device names matching the numbers written on the ActivExpressions themselves, register them one at a time in numerical order.

Next, follow the directions on the screen and apply to each device.

a.) Power on each ActivExpression device (orange circle on left side)

b.) Press the MENU/SYM button

c.) Choose Register on the top of the screen

d.) Type in the 3-letter PIN on each device with the buttons on the top next to the screen

e.) when all devices are registered, the registration screen will close out

of 36

Using the Express Poll feature

1.) On the main toolbox, click the Wonderwheel icon

2.) Hover over the wonderwheel and select a question type.

3.) Once you have selected the type of question, students will be able

to cast their votes using their Activexpression devices.

Connect to your SMARTboard

Cherokee County middle schools and high schools primarily use

SMARTboard Interactive whiteboards. The SMARTboards are model

660 and must be mounted on the wall by approved county

technicians.

We use EPSON 3Led projectors, which are

also mounted by approved county

technicians.

Hook up the CAT5e (Ethernet Cable), audio, and

VGA video cable to the wall mount for the

SMARTboard.
