familiar with your KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III Slide Projector and how to
operate it properly.

Operation
Startup
ImportantModels III BR
and ABR Only

Before you turn on your new KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III BR or ABR Slide
Projector, it is critical to set the voltage selector to the proper setting. Use
the proper fuse for the voltage selection. See the fuse label on the back of the
projector.
The voltage selector on the KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III BR or ABR Slide
Projector is located on the base of the projector. Using a small object, such asa coin, you can set the voltage selector for the proper voltage (100, 115, 130,
220, 230, and 240 V).

KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III Slide Projector

3Operation
EKTAGRAPHIC III BR and ABR Slide Projectors have a sensing capability
to automatically set the proper power cycle (50 or 60 Hz). This eliminates theneed to manually change the two-position switch included on models
manufactured before November 1996. These projectors are shipped with adetachable power cord that is packaged separately (not wound on the Power
Cord Retainer).
A spare fuse is provided. The fuse is located in the small, pull-out storage door
below the Power Inlet. Simply pull the door with your finger. Remove thespent fuse with a small object (e.g., pencil tip) by pushing the fuse up andremoving it from the receptacle. Press the spare fuse into the receptacle andclose the storage door.

Important
The EKTAGRAPHIC III BR and ABR Slide Projectors are supplied with a
3-wire grounding power cord to comply with UL122 (USA) and CSA222(Canada) safety and electrical standards. We urge you to provide a permanent,
properly installed 3-wire receptacle as the source of power for this projector.
For advice and assistance, call a licensed electrician or your local powercompany.
When used outside the United States of America, please use a proper adapterthat ensures grounding and polarization.
Although the Models III BR and ABR are approved to the standards of UL
and CSA, they are not intended to meet approval in all countries worldwide.

Selecting Slide
Projection Lenses

When buying a lens, consider features such as focal length (measured inmillimetres), aperture (designed as an f/stop), and the lens design (curved orflat).
When selecting a lens, remember that the shorter the focal length (i.e., thesmaller the f/number), the brighter the projected image. Also, a curved-fieldlens, in combination with cardboard open face mounts from an automatedmounting process, provide superior projection quality. A flat-field lens is thebest choice for glass-mounted slides.

KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III Slide Projector

Operation

Choosing a Curved- The lens you select depends on how you use your projector and what type ofslide mount you use. So that you may choose the lens that best meets youror Flat-Field Lens
needs, we do not include a lens with the projector.
To obtain the best results of a projected image, insert slides with the emulsion
side toward the projection lens, slide curve toward the light source.
A flat-field lens works best for:• general home projection• glass mounts• plastic mounts• mixed mounts• non-embossed cardboard mounts• rear-projection applications• duplicated slides
A curved-field lens works best for:• embossed cardboard mounts (Embossed mounts have beveled edgesaround the aperture. Kodak Premium Processing and Kodak Processing

labs provide embossed mounts.)

Operation

Reinserting theLens

To reinsert the lens, push the focus knob up and position the lens gear teethon the lens barrel with the notch on the projector.

Using a Dissolve Control
One of the more common uses for a dissolve control is a simple two-projector
fade. This feature fades down the light beam in one projector, while changing
the image and fading up the light beam in the other projector. This eliminates
a dark-screen interval.
When using a dissolve control, you need to divide your slides into two trays(odd- and even-numbered slides).
The dissolve control has two connectors that plug into the remote-control
receptacles in the rear of two projectors. Refer to your dissolve-control
operating manual for additional instructions and features.
See your dealer in Kodak products for more information on Kodak dissolve
controls.
