Slide Tray Use
Rotary Slide Tray
The SUPERNOVA 10K uses only rotary slide trays. The advantages of the rotary
slide tray include its 80 slide capacity, slides are protected against dust, slides will
not fall out if tray is dropped, and endless projections can be done easily because
slide no. 80 is followed by slide no. 1.

Placing the Tray on the Projector
Before putting the tray on the projector, please, make sure that the bottom of the
tray is clicked in correctly. To do this you take the tray to where the metal plate is
facing up (pic. 1). Now turn the metal plate until you hear it click into the zero
position (pic 2). You can place the tray on the projector without any problems and
the zero position will fit into the appropriate groove.

Removing the Tray
When switching off the SUPERNOVA 10K projector it will automatically go back to
the zero position and the tray can easily be removed. The tray can only be removed
in the zero position. There is a safety mechanism which prevents taking the tray off
in any other position.

Should it occur that the projector is not in the zero position (e.g. after the electricity
went off) you can use the following mechanism to unlock the tray. In the middle of
the tray you can see the lock-mechanism and a small pin coming out towards you.

Move this pin carefully to the side. You will notice that a small metal tongue is
slowly moving towards the centre. In this position the tray can be removed. The
slide last projected is still in the slot and has to be removed manually. Proceed as
mentioned above, make sure that the bottom of the tray is clicked in correctly
(i.e. in the zero position).

No Slide / No Light
The SUPERNOVA 10K has a built-in detector which recognizes when a slide is in
the gate and then allows the projection light to pass through the slide. If there is
no slide in the gate, the projector will not allow light to pass through the system.
