2.7 Optical Section

The Optical section consists of the CRT Assembly, the Arc Lamp Assembly, and
the Optical subassemblies, which provides the image to be viewed on the screen.
The Optical Section filters, splits and directs the high intensity light to the three
(3) separate (RGB) light channels. Figure 2-19 shows the video path from the
CRT to the screen and the optical path from the Arc Lamp to the screen.

CRT Assembly

The image in the projector begins at the three (3) CRTs. The CRT Assembly is
located beneath the main electronics card cage and contains three (3) sets of the
following:
Each CRT has a high resolution infrared beam and a high resolution phosphor
screen. Fans mounted at the rear of the assembly cool the CRT Assembly.
Procedures for adjusting the yokes and the width coils can be found in
Section.3.2. A functional description of the Video Amplifier Boards is provided in
Section 2.6.5.
Relay Lens
The relay lens picks up the CRT image from the face of the CRT and focuses the
image to the ILA

lamp through the prism. This high intensity light is then phase modulated (altered)
by the video signal from the input side of the ILA
back out of the output side and then travels through the prism to be picked up by
the projection lens.
The prism reflects horizontally polarized light and passes vertically
