In other words, the temperature and humidity inside thesecompartments must be brought within specs prior to activating the lasers and Light Processor. The timeneeded to bring the projector from a deconditioned state into a conditioned state depends on the ambientconditions and can take several minutes. This process is called conditioning.Startup checklist1. Check if the chillers are correctly installed. See documentation set of the chillers.2.
