Replacement

The VX-44d/-55d uses a Cermax® Xenon lamp to deliver its high brightness. The lamp

should be replaced when it reaches the end of its life (typically 1000 hours), or sooner if a

noticeable degradation in brightness occurs. When you replace a lamp, you should

replace the filters as well.

Keep track of the number of hours the lamp has been in use and be aware of any changes

to brightness. These indicators will help you effectively maintain operation of the projector.

To find out how long the currently-installed lamp has been in service, select

Lamp Info

from the Display Device - Configure menu (available by selecting Service -> Display

Device -> Configure -> Lamp Info, in sequence).

Lamp ReplacementFor lamp or filter replacement, please contact your nearest Runco authorized

service center or Runco dealer. Do not attempt to replace the lamp yourself!

1. Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord. Allow the projector to cool down for

approximately 45 minutes prior to removing the lamp assembly for replacement.

2. Loosen the two rear Lamp Cover screws (see Figure 5-1) and remove the cover.
