(First operation example)
Next, the first operation of the above embodiment will be exemplified.
FIG. 5 shows the processing contents of the control unit 50 mainly related to the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 after the projector apparatus 10 is turned on.

  Initially, after the light source lamp 47 is turned on in response to power-on (step S01), the temperature sensors 59 and 60 detect the temperatures of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 (step S02). From the above, it is determined whether the temperature is lower by 10 [° C.] or more than the upper limit of the preset allowable temperature range (step S03).

  Here, when it is determined that the temperature is 10 [° C.] or more lower than the preset upper limit of the allowable temperature range, the process returns to step S02 again, and the same process is repeated thereafter, whereby the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 are repeated. Is monitored to be equal to or higher than the temperature obtained by subtracting 10 [° C.] from the upper limit of the allowable temperature range.

  If the temperature sensors 59 and 60 detect that the temperature of the light source lamp 47 or the reflector 48 is equal to or higher than the temperature obtained by subtracting 10 [° C.] from the upper limit of the allowable temperature range, this is determined in step S03. A warning mark is given to a part and projected (step S04).

  FIG. 6 illustrates an image projected at this time, and a warning mark WR is displayed at the end of the projection range AR on the screen SCR, for example, at the upper right. In this case, the warning mark WR notifies the user of the projector device 10 that some abnormality has occurred by blinking a red circle symbol in the image, for example. In order not to directly know that an abnormality has occurred in other people who are viewing the projected image, projection with characters or the like shall be avoided.

  At the same time, it is next determined by the rotation sensor 58 whether or not the cooling fan 56 is rotating properly (step S05). If it is determined that the cooling fan 56 is rotating, then the temperature sensor 61 detects the cooling air flow path outlet. It is determined whether or not the temperature is abnormal, specifically, whether or not there is a moderate temperature rise corresponding to the temperature detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 (step S06).

  Here, when a temperature rise within a certain range is observed in the temperature sensor 61 as compared with the temperature detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60, at least “that is,” in the cooling air flow path has not occurred. Only the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 is displayed on the display unit 53 constituting the main body operation display unit 14 as character data, specifically, for example, a guide message “temperature abnormality (lamp)” by a character string (step) S07).

  In step S06, if the temperature sensor 61 does not show a significant temperature rise compared to the temperature detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60, and the temperature is determined to be abnormal, dust is generated in the cooling air flow path. Or the like, the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 and the abnormality of the cooling air flow path are detected by the display unit 53 constituting the main body operation display unit 14 as character data, specifically, for example, a character string. Is displayed as a guide message “temperature abnormality (lamp, air flow path)” (step S08).

  Further, if it is determined in step S05 that the cooling fan 56 is not rotating properly by the rotation sensor 58, the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 and the abnormality of the cooling fan 56 are displayed on the display unit constituting the main body operation display unit 14. The character data is displayed at 53 (step S09).

FIG. 7 exemplifies character data displayed on the display unit 53 of the main body operation display unit 14 at this time. Specifically, a guide message by a character string, for example, “temperature abnormality” is illustrated.
(Lamp, cooling fan) "
Is displayed as shown.

  However, the temperature sensors 59 and 60 detect the temperatures of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 again in a state where the abnormality display is performed in any of the steps S07 to S09 (step S10). It is determined whether or not the temperature is below the upper limit of the set allowable temperature range (step S11).

  Here, when it is determined that the temperature is below the upper limit of the preset allowable temperature range, the process returns to step S03 and the subsequent steps, and a warning mark WR is included in the projected image as necessary. The process of displaying the content of the abnormality on the main body operation display unit 14 using character data is repeated.

  If the user of the projector apparatus 10 takes some countermeasures based on the display on the main body operation display unit 14 in the process of repeatedly executing the processes after step S03, for example, the cooling air flow path is “that is” due to dust or the like. If the dust that caused the clogging is removed, or if the cooling fan 56 is not rotating normally, the hair entangled with the rotating shaft of the cooling fan 56 is removed, Or, even though the cooling fan 56 is rotating normally, the entrance of the cooling air flow path is blocked by presentation materials, etc., and if this is noticed, fresh air will flow in again. The temperature of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 is 10 [° C.] or more lower than the upper limit of the allowable temperature range. Runode, and this is determined in step S03, the state again repeats the processing of step S02, S03.

  Further, in the process of repeatedly executing the processes in and after step S03, an abnormal state that has occurred without the user taking any countermeasures based on the display on the main body operation display unit 14 further proceeds. In this case, specifically, when the temperatures of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 exceed the upper limit of the allowable range, this is determined in step S11, and the light source lamp is determined for a certain time. After a warning mark for turning off 47 is projected on the screen SCR (step S12), the light source lamp 47 is turned off (step S13), and the power is turned off.

  Even after the power is turned off, the cooling of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 by the rotation of the cooling fan 56 is performed for a certain time, or the temperature of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 is 10 ° C. or more from the upper limit of the allowable range. Continue until it is low, and reduce the time until the next power can be turned on as much as possible.

  In this way, the occurrence of an abnormality such as a temperature abnormality is detected step by step, and the image projected on the screen SCR other than the user operating the projector device 10 is only seen at a stage where it can still be dealt with. The person who is operating the projector apparatus 10 is informed only by using a symbol or symbol that the abnormality has occurred, so that it is difficult for the user to notice the abnormality and the user directly operating the projector apparatus 10 has the main casing 11 of the projector apparatus 10. By displaying the content of the specific abnormality on the main body operation display unit 14 provided above, it is possible to deal with the generated abnormality with a margin.

  In addition, the main body operation display unit 14 displays the content of the abnormality that has occurred specifically in the form of character data, that is, a guide message using a character string, so that a more appropriate countermeasure can be taken without misidentifying the content of the abnormality that has occurred. Can be applied.

(Second operation example)
Next, the second operation of the above embodiment will be exemplified.
FIG. 8 shows the processing contents of the control unit 50 mainly related to the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 after the projector apparatus 10 is turned on.

  Initially, after the light source lamp 47 is turned on in response to power-on (step S01), the temperature sensors 59 and 60 detect the temperatures of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 (step S02). From the above, it is determined whether the temperature is lower by 10 [° C.] or more than the upper limit of the preset allowable temperature range (step S03).

  Here, when it is determined that the temperature is 10 [° C.] or more lower than the preset upper limit of the allowable temperature range, the process returns to step S02 again, and the same process is repeated thereafter, whereby the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 are repeated. Is monitored to be equal to or higher than the temperature obtained by subtracting 10 [° C.] from the upper limit of the allowable temperature range.

  If the temperature sensors 59 and 60 detect that the temperature of the light source lamp 47 or the reflector 48 is equal to or higher than the temperature obtained by subtracting 10 [° C.] from the upper limit of the allowable temperature range, this is determined in step S03. A warning mark is given to a part and projected as shown in FIG. 6 (step S04).

  At the same time, it is next determined by the rotation sensor 58 whether or not the cooling fan 56 is rotating properly (step S05). If it is determined that the cooling fan 56 is rotating, then the temperature sensor 61 detects the cooling air flow path outlet. It is determined whether or not the temperature is abnormal, specifically, whether or not there is a moderate temperature rise corresponding to the temperature detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 (step S06).

  Here, when a temperature rise within a certain range is observed in the temperature sensor 61 as compared with the temperature detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60, at least “that is,” in the cooling air flow path has not occurred. Then, a signal on which information indicating only the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 is superimposed is transmitted to the remote controller 30 as an infrared signal by the Ir transmitting / receiving units 13 and 18 (step S21).

  In step S06, if the temperature sensor 61 does not show a significant temperature rise compared to the temperature detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60, and the temperature is determined to be abnormal, dust is generated in the cooling air flow path. In other words, a signal in which information indicating the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 and the abnormality of the cooling air flow path is superimposed as an infrared signal by the Ir transmission / reception units 13, 18 to the remote controller 30. Transmit (step S22).

  Further, when the rotation sensor 58 determines in step S05 that the cooling fan 56 is not rotating correctly, a signal on which information indicating the temperature abnormality of the light source lamp 47 and the abnormality of the cooling fan 56 is superimposed is sent to the Ir transmission / reception unit. 13 and 18 are transmitted as an infrared signal to the remote controller 30 (step S23).

  On the one remote controller 30 side, as shown in FIG. 9, the control unit 71 waits for reception of an abnormal signal sent from the projector device 10.

  That is, in FIG. 9, from the beginning, it waits for the reception of an abnormal signal from the Ir transmission / reception units 13 and 18 of the projector device 10 (step R01), and when it is determined that the reception has been received, the vibration in the vibrator 72 is Is started (step R02), the “TEMP” indicator of the indicator section 33 is driven to blink (step R03), and it is then determined whether or not the abnormality signal is due to an abnormality in the light source lamp 47 and the cooling fan 56. (Step R04), otherwise, it is next determined whether or not it is due to an abnormality in the light source lamp 47 and the cooling air flow path (Step R05).

  If it is determined in step R04 that the abnormality signal is due to an abnormality in the light source lamp 47 and the cooling fan 56, character data, specifically, for example, characters are displayed on the display unit 31 as shown in FIG. A guide message “Temperature Abnormality (Lamp, Cooling Fan)” is displayed (step R06).

  If it is determined in step R05 that the abnormal signal is due to an abnormality in the light source lamp 47 and the cooling air flow path, as shown in FIG. Is displayed, for example, as a guide message “temperature abnormality (lamp, cooling flow path)” by a character string (step R07).

  Further, if it is determined in step R05 that the abnormal signal is not due to an abnormality in the light source lamp 47 and the cooling air flow path, the character data, specifically, is displayed on the display unit 31 as shown in FIG. Is displayed, for example, as a guide message “Temperature Abnormality (Lamp)” using a character string (step R08).

  Thus, in addition to the vibration notification by the vibrator 72 and the blinking display of the “TEMP” indicator of the indicator section 33, the display of the temperature abnormality and its detailed occurrence location at any of steps R06 to R08 is held for a certain time, for example, 5 seconds. After (step R09), the process returns to the process from step R01 again to confirm whether or not the abnormal signal is still sent from the projector apparatus 10, and the same process is repeated if it is sent.

  On the projector apparatus 10 side, after transmitting an abnormal signal to the remote controller 30 in any one of steps S21 to S23, the temperatures of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 are detected again by the temperature sensors 59 and 60. (Step S10) From each detection result, it is judged whether it is below the upper limit of the preset allowable temperature range (Step S11).

  Here, when it is determined that the temperature is below the upper limit of the preset allowable temperature range, the process returns to step S03 and the subsequent steps, and a warning mark WR is included in the projected image as necessary. The process of transmitting a corresponding abnormality signal to the remote controller 30 to report the content of the abnormality is repeated.

  When the user of the projector apparatus 10 who is operating the remote controller 30 takes some countermeasures based on the display on the display unit 31 of the remote controller 30 in the process of repeatedly executing the processes after step S03, for example, cooling If the air flow path is “clogged” by dust or the like, the dust that caused the clogging is removed, or if the cooling fan 56 is not rotating normally, the cooling fan 56 is rotated. When the hair entangled with the shaft is removed, or even though the cooling fan 56 is rotating normally, the entrance of the cooling air flow path is blocked by the presentation material etc. For example, when a fresh air is introduced, the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 4 detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 are used. The temperature of becomes low 10 [° C.] or higher than the upper limit of the allowable temperature range, and this is determined in step S03, the state again repeats the processing of step S02, S03.

  Further, in the process of repeatedly executing the processes after step S03, there is an abnormal state that occurs without any countermeasure being taken by the user of the projector device 10 based on the display on the display unit 31 of the remote controller 30. When the process further proceeds, specifically, when the temperatures of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 detected by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 exceed the upper limit of the allowable range, this is determined in step S11, and only for a certain period of time. After a warning mark for turning off the light source lamp 47 is projected on the screen SCR (step S12), the light source lamp 47 is turned off (step S13), and the power is turned off.

  Even after the power is turned off, the cooling of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 by the rotation of the cooling fan 56 is performed for a certain time, or the temperature of the light source lamp 47 and the reflector 48 by the temperature sensors 59 and 60 is 10 ° C. or more from the upper limit of the allowable range. Continue until it is low, and reduce the time until the next power can be turned on as much as possible.

  In this way, for a person who is only looking at the projected content other than the user who is operating the projector device 10 using the remote controller 30, only a sign or symbol is used to indicate that an abnormality has occurred. By notifying, it is difficult to notice the occurrence of the abnormality, and the display unit 31 of the remote controller 30 displays the specific content of the abnormality, so that the abnormality generated by the user can be dealt with with a margin. .
