Abstract

A control method for cooling a projection display, wherein a pressure sensor automatically detects the elevation above sea level of a projection display and then transmits a signal to the control unit for controlling the cooling unit to operate in a corresponding cooling mode, thereby the cooling efficiency varies with the elevation above sea level and then the cooling unit can operate in a corresponding rotating speed in order to effectively cool the whole projection display and increase the flexibility in using the projection display, and further extend the lifetime of each component inside the projection display.

Claims (7)

1. A control method for cooling a projection display, the projection display having a pressure sensor connected to a control unit, the control unit being connected to at least one cooling units, the control method comprising the steps of:

the pressure sensor detecting the elevation above sea level of the projection display;

the pressure sensor transmitting a signal to the control unit; and

the control unit controlling the cooling unit to increase cooling as the elevation above sea level increases.

2. The control method for cooling a projection display according to claim 1 , wherein the cooling unit has a plurality of cooling modes.

3. The control method for cooling a projection display according to claim 1 , wherein the cooling unit has at least one set of fans and the speed of the fans is adjusted in a stepless way according to the change of the elevation above sea level.

4. The control method for cooling a projection display according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure sensor transmits a corresponding signal to the control unit by detecting the change of the elevation above sea level.
