INSTALLATION AND SETUP

RGB Si

nals

INPUT 1 consists of 5 BNCs (connectors) for linking to a variety of sources. The

typical connection would be to an RGB source such as a PC, Mac, DEC, Sun, SGI and others. The Cine-IPM 2K supports multiple sync types with RGB signals: sync- on-green, composite sync, and separate H & V syncs.

NOTE: Depending on your source, you may need a custom adapter cable with BNC

connectors at the projector end and a different type of connector at the other (such as a 15-pin "D" connector for some computer sources). Contact your dealer for details.

Connect the to the

SYNC BNC input(s). Then connect the red, green and blue source outputs

RED, GREEN, and BLUE BNCs on the INPUT 1 panel. If the source uses sync-

on-green, only the red, green, and blue connections are required. If the source provides a composite sync output, connect it to the

SYNC input labeled HOR/COMP. If

the source provides separate horizontal and vertical sync outputs, connect horizontal sync to the labeled

SYNC input labeled HOR/COMP and connect vertical sync to SYNC input

VERT. See Figure 2.8.

2.3 Connecting DVI Outputs

INSTALLATION AND SETUP

All input signals processed by the Cine-IPM 2K are routed to the identical DVI outputs located on the rear panel of the unit. Connect

DVI-1 to the DVI-1 connector on

the CP2000 (cable provided). If desired, connect an additional display device such as a digital monitor using

DVI-2. Shown are 4 typical applications for the Cine-IPM 2K:

• 8-bit mode for one CP2000 (Figure 2.12A)

• 8-bit mode for CP2000 and a digital monitor (Figure 2.12B)

• 8-bit mode for two CP2000s (Figure 2.12C)

• 8-bit or 10-bit mode for one CP2000 (Figure 2.12D)

Figure 2.12. Connecting for 8-bit vs. 10-bit Use

Connecting for X 10-bit Use

If desired, such as when you have digital progressive source data, you can output it in 10-bit format for a single CP2000 connected to the Cine-IPM 2K. This is shown in Figure 2.12D above. Because Cine-IPM 2K’s 10-bit output is divided between the two DVI ports, with

DVI-1 handling the most-significant 8 bits and DVI-2 handling the

remaining least-significant 2 bits, 10-bit mode requires both outputs connected to the corresponding CP2000

DVI ports.

Selecting 8-bit or 10-bit Mode

With the Figure 2.12D configuration, you can use either 8-bit or 10-bit Cine-IPM 2K mode for all sources. Make sure to set this mode (a.k.a. “Data Format”) in 2 places:

Cine-IPM 2K User’s Manual 2-9

020-100164-01 Rev. 1 (01/08)

INSTALLATION AND SETUP

1. In the Cine-IPM 2K

Configuration menu, select

the Output Format submenu.

2. Select the desired “Output

Format”— use “Single Link 8-bit” or “Twin Link 10-bit”. The latter improves displays of digital progressive source data.

The Cine-IPM 2K outputs all sources according to the choice set here.

3. In the TPC

, go to the Custom menu (password required). Set “Input” to the

current DVI route:

 For 8-bit mode via a DVI-1 connection, select “DVI-A”  For 8-bit mode via a DVI-2 connection, select “DVI-B”.  For 10-bit mode via a double connection, select “DVI-TWIN”.

Figure 2.13

Figure 2.14. TPC Settings (10-BIT EXAMPLE)

4. Still in the TPC Custom menu, set “Data Format” to match the Cine-IPM 2K

format chosen in Step 2.

NOTE: When using the Cine-IPM 2K with two display devices, both outputs are 8-bit

duplicates of one another and 10-bit mode is not available.

For complete setup information and control of other Cine-IPM 2K options such as resolution, refer to 2.5, Setting Up the TPC for Source Selection. See also Section 3.

the Cine-IPM 2K using a PC or other controller. Such a device sends commands and receives feedback via serial links (2 types), Ethernet or GPIO communications. All types of communication methods are described below.

As an alternative to keypad and/or TPC control, you may wish to communicate with

Remote Keypads X

If desired, connect a wired (tethered) version of the CineIPM 2K remote keypad to the 3.5mm phono jack on the

front panel. Note that response to a wired keypad must also be enabled in the Communications menu—see 2.7, Converting the Keypad for more information.

TPC

If you have connected the rear RS232 “B” port of the CineIPM 2K to the RS232 “B” port in the CP2000, you can use

the Touch Panel Controller for selecting sources connected to the Cine-IPM 2K. Refer back to Figure 2.6. The RS232 connection also enables Cine-IPM 2K status updates at the TPC.

NOTE: The TPC can select a specific Cine-IPM 2K source

(#1-6) only if the CP2000 is connected via DVI-1. If connected via DVI-2, the TPC can select this port (called DVI-B), but you must use the Cine-IPM 2K keypad to select the source (#1-6).

The rear Ethernet port on the Cine-IPM 2K is an alternative route planned for TPC communications, but is currently non-functional.

Other Controllers

RS232 Serial Communications

From most computers, connect a standard RS232 serial communication cable between the computer and the Cine-IPM 2K serial port labeled Cine-IPM 2K baud rate to match that of your computer.

Changing the baud rate is done in the Cine-IPM 2K’s Communications submenu. See

3.6, Adjusting System Parameters and Advanced Controls.

suited for long distances than is RS232 communication. Note that RS422 is not compatible with RS232—connecting a RS232-compatible PC to RS422 can damage the equipment at either end. Consult the documentation provided with your PC if you are unsure.

The 9-pin RS422 connector is located on the front input panel of the Cine-IPM 2K. When using this port, make sure to set the baud rate to match that of your RS422 controlling device.

Figure 2.16. Connecting Serial Communications via RS422

CAUTION

Do not use an RS422 port unless you are using

equipment with RS422 capability. The voltage levels of

this signal can damage incompatible equipment.

Ethernet Communications

To add the Cine-IPM 2K to an Ethernet network with other equipment such as controllers and other projectors, connect standard CAT5 Ethernet cable between your Ethernet controller (or hub) and the Ethernet port on the Cine-IPM 2K front panel.

NOTES: 1) Ethernet crossover

By default upon connection to an Ethernet network, a valid IP address for the CineIPM 2K will be automatically assigned by a DHCP server. If there is no DHCP server

present on your network, or if you want to use a specific static IP address for the Cine-IPM 2K, you can set this address in the Ethernet Settings menu or via an ASCII serial command.

Regardless of how it is assigned, once a Cine-IPM 2K has a valid and unique address it will respond immediately to commands sent to this address. To determine the Cine- IPM 2K’s current IP address, consult the Status or Communications menus.

Refer to 3.6, Adjusting System Parameters and Advanced Controls for further information about setting up and using a Cine-IPM 2K connected via Ethernet.

The GPIO Port

The General Purpose In-Out (GPIO) port enables integration of the Cine-IPM 2K within an established control system so that other devices connected via GPIO can operate in tandem with Cine-IPM 2K, or vice versa. ASCII commands sent via standard serial ports can be stored in Cine-IPM 2K memory, where they can then trigger a sequence of events in response to incoming or outgoing signals at the GPIO port, depending on your programming of the GPIO pins. For example, you can automatically dim the room lighting when the Cine-IPM 2K is turned on, or automatically turn the unit off when the lights are raised.

2.5 Setting Up the TPC for Source Selection

Co n t r o l l e r

At many CP2000 sites, users may prefer to select their non-cinema Cine-IPM 2K sources with a simple button on the TPC Main menu. These buttons provide a reliable and quick way to switch to a specific Cine-IPM 2K source, but they must first be configured and defined by an installer, administrator, or advanced user having access rights to the TPC Custom menu. See below.

NOTES: 1) This procedure assumes familiarity with the TPC. For complete

information, see the CP2000 User’s Manual

provided with the projector. 2) The

RS232 “B” link is required for source selection at the TPC. 3) Currently the TPC

can be configured for switching sources only, not channels.

1. Make sure your CP2000 and Cine-IPM 2K are properly connected via both

DVI

and RS232 “B”. Otherwise the two devices cannot communicate with each other.

2. Connect the desired

source(s) to the front of the Cine-IPM 2K.

3. In the Cine-IPM 2K menus,

set the desired output resolution and output (8-bit vs. 10-bit; a.k.a. “Data Format”). Remember that

Figure 2.19. Controlling Cine-IPM 2K Output

10-bit output requires both DVI connections. See right.

4. With the projector and

Cine-IPM 2K both powered up normally, go to the Custom menu of the TPC and set the following options (see Figure 2.20):

processing is recommended for all Cine-IPM 2K sources. In rare cases with low resolution sources having limited bandwidth, you may find that the cinema path can be used without cropping.

5. Choose a desired key name and icon for the display button appearing on the TPC

Main menu.

6. Settings are saved when you leave the Custom menu (they are also saved 5

minutes after opening the menu).

The TPC Main menu should now include a button for your newly-defined Cine-IPM 2K source. Repeat for remaining Cine-IPM 2K sources.

You may wish to link two or more Cine-IPM 2Ks together so that commands to and from a controller are relayed from one projector to another (each one having its own Cine-IPM 2K). Choose a hardware configuration that best suits your desired communication method.

need help changing the projector baud rate. In addition, set the Network Routing to “RS232 and RS422 Joined” if you want to reach all Cine-IPM 2K / CP2000 sets.

NOTES: 1) To avoid damage, connect only properly wired serial communication cables. See Appendix C for details. 2) It is recommended that each RS232

communication cable be no more than 25 feet in length. Use high quality cables.

Ethernet Networks

ETHERNET NETWORK SETUP: To add one or more Cine-IPM 2Ks to an Ethernet

network, use standard CAT5 cable to connect each unit’s front Ethernet port to a hub belonging to the network. A controller or PC must also be connected to the hub. See Figure 2.23.

SETTING THE Cine-IPM 2K’s IP ADDRESS: By default, a DHCP server (if present) will

automatically assign a valid and unique IP address for each Cine-IPM 2K present, upon connection to most Ethernet networks. Depending on the network, this DHCPassigned IP address usually remains stable for the current session, but may change with subsequent power-ups and logins. On some networks, the address will even remain stable from session to session. In all cases, the Cine-IPM 2K’s IP address and port appear in the Status menu as well as the Ethernet Settings submenu.

Figure 2.23. Typical Ethernet Network

Figure 2.24. Setting the Cine-IPM 2K’s IP Address

If you have no DHCP server on your network, or if you simply wish to assign a specific static address, enter this address in the Ethernet Settings submenu or send it to the Cine-IPM 2K via a serial command. The unit will respond immediately and permanently to commands sent to this address until you enter a new address, or until you re-enable the DHCP auto-assign checkbox.

020-100164-01 Rev. 1 (01/08)

INSTALLATION AND SETUP

CHANGING THE PORT#: On some Ethernet networks, firewall restrictions may

require that the port number of the Cine-IPM 2K be changed from its default of 3002. If so, enter a new port number in the Ethernet Settings menu or include the new port# in an XIP serial command sent to the Cine-IPM 2K. NOTE: It is recommended you do not use port numbers below 1000 as they are typically reserved by common TCP applications.

SUBNET MASK AND DEFAULT GATEWAY: The Subnet Mask and Default Gateway are

automatically assigned when DHCP is enabled. If a static IP address is used, assign it first since the subnet mask is estimated after it is entered. The Default Gateway allows you to specify the address of a local router, which enables the transmission of data between separate IP networks.

NETWORK NAME: Set the name for the projector, as it should appear on the local

network. The control is most useful when DHCP is enabled, since the IP address may change from one session to another.

ArtNet INTERFACE SETTINGS: Refer to 3.6, Adjusting System Parameters and

Advanced Controls for additional information about ArtNet settings.

Communicating to Certain Ports

By default, communications originating from one type of serial controller—RS232 vs. RS422 vs. Ethernet—stay on the corresponding network path. This separation is indicated by a “Separate” setting for “Network Routing” in the Communications menu. If you are using an RS422 controller, for example, the device communicates only with the Cine-IPM 2K to which it is connected unless you change this setting to either “RS232 and RS422 Joined” or “All Joined”(Figure 2.25).

Figure 2.25. Keeping Communications Separate (default)

To relay all messages to all ports—RS232,

Communicating to All Ports

RS422, and Ethernet—set the “Network Routing” option in the Communications menu for each projector to “All Joined”. This configuration is useful if you are using a nonRS232 controller with the RS232 linking available between these Cine-IPM 2Ks. For example, you may want to use both an RS422-compatible controller and an Ethernet-connected PC for working with a network of Cine-IPM 2Ks linked via their RS232 in/out ports (Figure 2.26).

2.7 Converting the Keypad

It is helpful to define a unique 3-digit projector number—001, 002, 003, etc.—to each projector connected in a serial (RS232 or RS422) network. These numbers enable you to direct Cine-IPM 2K serial commands to a single projector rather than broadcasting to the entire network. For complete information on how to assign and use projector numbers on a serial network, see 3.6, Adjusting System Parameters and Advanced Controls.

If desired, convert an IR remote keypad into a wired remote keypad and vice versa. Select the new desired function in the Communications menu and add or remove the cable and batteries as appropriate.

NOTE: In either configuration, batteries are required for powering the laser pointer.

1. Using the keypad as either an IR (infrared) remote or with its cable

connected to the Cine-IPM 2K, display the Communications menu.

2. Set the new desired keypad function—either “Front IR” or “Wired

Keypad”—to

On. The Cine-IPM 2K will now recognize both types of

communication signals.

3. For wired function, add the keypad cable (provided) and connect to the

REMOTE port on the Cine-IPM 2K. For IR function, remove the cable and

make sure the 4 batteries are installed.

4. If desired, return to the Communications menu and turn the opposing keypad

functionality to

Off. This is useful when you are using a wired keypad and

need to prevent interference from other nearby IR remotes still in use.

Note that each keypad configuration—wired or IR—controls the

Off state of the other

type of keypad. This safeguard prevents accidentally disabling the current keypad.

Communications (FRONT)

Connect all external communication links here, such as a wired keypad, Ethernet, and/or a serial link from your PC or another Cine-IPM 2K. See Section 2 for details of connection and setup of all communications.

 RS232: Connect an RS232-compatible PC or other controller for typical serial

communication to and from the Cine-IPM 2K. These in-out ports also provide loop-through connection to additional Cine-IPM 2Ks, creating a serial network, and are used for downloading new software to the Cine-IPM 2K.

 RS422: Connect an RS422-compatible controller for unusually long-distance

serial communication.

 GPIO: Connect the desired GPIO-compatible device here for integration of the

Cine-IPM 2K with an established control system. Devices connected via GPIO can operate in tandem with Cine-IPM 2K, or vice versa and is often used for automation of regularly scheduled events.

 REMOTE KEYPAD: Connect the wired (tethered) remote keypad if you want to

use a keypad for controlling a Cine-IPM 2K, such as one that is recessed and hidden inside the CP2000 pedestal. In such cases, the cable is typically routed out the front toe of the pedestal.

 ETHERNET: Connect to an Ethernet network with other equipment such as

controllers and additional projectors.

Standard and Optional Inputs

Connect all desired non-cinema input sources here. See Section 2 for more information about connecting sources, and refer to Section 6 for specifications.

 RS232 “B”: If you will want to select your Cine-IPM 2K inputs using the Touch

Panel Controller on the CP2000, you must connect the Cine-IPM 2K’s RS232 cable between the rear RS232 “B” port on the Cine-IPM 2K and the RS232 “B” port on the CP2000. This custom Christie-proprietary cable enables communication between the Cine-IPM 2K processor and the CP2000 so that you can 1) use the TPC to switch Cine-IPM 2K sources and 2) obtain Cine- IPM 2K status updates.

IMPORTANT

Do not use RS232 “B” ports and cable with other

equipment or in other configurations.

Mounting Ears (2)

Mounting ears enable the Cine-IPM 2K to be installed in the rear of the CP2000 pedestal, or rack-mounted in a separate standard 19-inch rack. To recess the Cine- IPM 2K, position its ears as far forward as possible before installation—this creates a convenient gap for routing your external connections away from the front panel. Make sure to secure each ear with 4 screws. Or move the ears fully back for a flushfront installation.

As Wired Remote

Rear Mounts

If the Cine-IPM 2K is installed in the CP2000 pedestal, add support strapping between the pedestal frame and the two rear mounts at the rear corners of the Cine- IPM 2K.

All functions in the Cine-IPM 2K can be controlled and adjusted using the remote keypad—refer to the key descriptions provided for the IR remote (Figure 3.2). Use either as a wireless IR remote or convert to wired use.

The IR remote keypad uses wireless communications from a battery-powered infrared (IR) transmitter to control the Cine-IPM 2K. Direct the keypad toward the IR sensor on the Cine-IPM 2K front panel.

The IR remote converts into a wired remote with the addition of a cable (supplied) which connects to the front of the Cine-IPM 2K. You must also select the “Wired Keypad” option in the Communications menu. Use a wired remote when lighting conditions interfere with proper IR transmission, or when the IR sensor is inaccessible, such as when the Cine-IPM 2K is secured within a closed CP2000 pedestal.

NOTE: Keep batteries in the keypad for powering the laser pointer.

Keep in mind the following guidelines:

1) Press keys one-at-a-time; there are no simultaneous key combinations required.

2) To protect against accidental use, the two “toggle” keys—Power and OSD—are

“press-and-hold” keys that do not function with a typical quick press-and-release key press.

3) Hold arrow keys down for continuous adjustment/movement in one direction. In

serial networks, pause briefly between adjustments to ensure that more distant Cine-IPM 2Ks can “keep up” with the commands.

4) If you press a key while the Cine-IPM 2K is still responding to the previous

action, such as during power-up, the second key press may not take effect.
