Author Topic: Urgent! NEC NC1500C lamp turn on. Andreas Hjorth Film Handler Posts: 20 From: Helsingborg, Skane, Sweden Registered: Nov 2011 posted 04-24-2012 09:10 AM                     Hello Is there a way to turn the lamp on directly on the NC1500C projector? I have always used the doremi player to do it, but now it wont start. have a show starting in about an hour and a half. any help would be appreciated. thanks.  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-24-2012 09:44 AM                     How about this, press the PowerButton on the Panel (On/Standby) for a minimum of 3 seconds: http://www.film-tech.com/warehouse/index.php?category=2#Digital%20Cinema%20Projectors But maybe your lamp or supply has a problem. Read the manual and look at the diagnostic LEDs and LCD display. - Carsten  |  IP: Logged Andreas Hjorth Film Handler Posts: 20 From: Helsingborg, Skane, Sweden Registered: Nov 2011 posted 04-24-2012 09:48 AM                     That simply turns the power on, it doesn't ignite the lamp. have been hearing that I might need the touch screen to do it.  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-24-2012 10:23 AM                     Well but you do know that there is a Lamp control keypad? Every projector can have his lamp turned on manually. On the old NEC series, you have to press two buttons at once - LAMP ON + CTL (Lamp) after PowerOn. Didn't you get a manual with it? Hard to believe the installer didn't teach that. Never showed any alternative content without the server? - Carsten  |  IP: Logged Andreas Hjorth Film Handler Posts: 20 From: Helsingborg, Skane, Sweden Registered: Nov 2011 posted 04-24-2012 11:19 AM                     I know the lamp control keypad, but on that you can only regulate the brightness. there is no "lamp on" button anywhere on the machine. sounds insane, I know, and I can't find anything in the manuals about igniting the lamp.  |  IP: Logged Stefan Vogels Film Handler Posts: 48 From: Aarle-Rixtel, Noord-Brabant, Netherlands Registered: Jan 2010 posted 04-24-2012 03:14 PM                     Is it the same keypad as the NC2500S ? Than it should be Lamp control + enter.

Thank god for film-tech. andreas  |  IP: Logged Stefan Vogels Film Handler Posts: 48 From: Aarle-Rixtel, Noord-Brabant, Netherlands Registered: Jan 2010 posted 04-26-2012 04:25 PM                     sweet !
