WARNING

WARNING

WARNING

WARNING

This manual is intended for professionally trained operators of Christie high-brightness projection systems.
These operators are qualified to replace the lamp and air filter, but should not attempt to install or service the
projector.

Only accredited Christie technicians who are knowledgeable about the hazards associated with high-voltage,
ultraviolet exposure, and the high temperatures generated by the projector lamp are authorized to assemble,
install, and service the projector.

1.1 Labels and Markings

These warning labels can appear on the projector:

Indicates a hazardous situation which that could result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or

serious injury.

Indicates a hazardous situation that could result in minor or moderate injury.

NOTICE! Addresses practices not related to personal injury.

Never look directly into the projector lens or at the lamp. The extremely high

brightness can cause permanent eye damage. For protection from ultraviolet radiation, keep
all projector housings intact during operation. Protective safety gear and safety goggles are
recommended when servicing.

FIRE HAZARD! Keep hands, clothes, and all combustible material away from

the concentrated light beam of the lamp.

Position all cables where they cannot contact hot surfaces or be

pulled or tripped over.

1) The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists

(ACGIH) recommends occupational UV exposure for an 8-hour day to be less than 0.1
microwatts per square centimeters of effective UV radiation. An evaluation of your workplace
is advised to assure employees are not exposed to cumulative radiation levels exceeding the
government guidelines for your area. 2) Be aware that some medications are known to
increase sensitivity to UV radiation.

1.2 AC / Power Precautions

To correctly install this projector, a certified electrician must install a permanent a single-phase connection
from the projector to the AC supply. You must operate the projector at the recommended voltage.

1) Disconnect projector from AC before opening any enclosure.

2) High leakage current. Earth connection essential before connecting supply.

1) DO NOT allow anything to rest on the power cord. Locate the projector where the cord
cannot be damaged by people walking on it or by objects rolling over it. Never operate the
projector if the power cable appears damaged in any way.

2) DO NOT overload power outlets and extension cords as this can result in fire or shock
hazards.

3) Note that only qualified service technicians are permitted to open any enclosure on the
product and only if the AC has been fully disconnected from the product.

Power Cords and Attachments

1) The North American rated line cord is provided with each projector. Ensure

that you are using a power cord, socket and power plug that meets the appropriate local
rating standards. 2) Use only an AC power cord recommended by Christie. Do not attempt
operation if the AC supply and cord are not within the specified voltage and power range.

Use only the attachments and/or accessories recommended by Christie. Use of others may result in the risk of
fire, shock or personal injury.

1.3 Lamp Precautions

Lamps used in the projector are under high pressure and you must handle them with caution. Lamps can
explode and cause serious personal injury if they are dropped or mishandled.

EXPLOSION HAZARD! Wear authorized protective safety clothing whenever the lamp

door is open.

Recommended protective clothing includes, but may not be limited to a polycarbonate face shield,
protective gloves, and a quilted ballistic nylon jacket or a welder’s jacket. This equipment is included in
included in the Christie Protective Clothing Safety Kit #598900-095.

NOTE: Christie’s protective clothing recommendations are subject to change. Any local or federal specifica-

tions take precedence over Christie recommendations.

Lamp may explode causing bodily harm or death. 1) Always wear protective
clothing whenever lamp door is open or while handling lamp. 2) Verify those within the
vicinity of the projector are also suited with protective clothing. 3) Never attempt to access
the lamp while the lamp is on. Wait at least 10 minutes after the lamp turns OFF before
powering down, disconnecting from AC and opening the lamp door.

The arc lamp operates at a high pressure that increases with temperature. Failure to allow the
lamp to sufficiently cool prior to handling increases the potential for an explosion causing
personal injury or property damage.

2.4 Installation Safety and Warning Guidelines

QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN REQUIRED for all installations. This product must be

installed in a restricted access location.

Never operate the projector without the covers in place.

The projector uses a high-pressure lamp that may explode if improperly han­dled. Always wear manufacturer approved protective safety clothing (gloves, jacket, face
shield) whenever the lamp door is open or when handling the lamp. Only qualified technicians
should install projector lamps.

To prevent the projector from tipping unexpectedly, you must install the
safety strap on the rear of the projector.

Four or more people are required to safely lift and carry one projection head a
short distance. Remove the lamp before transporting the projector.

Keep the projector level when you lift or transport it. Avoid tilting the projec­tor to the right. This can introduce an air bubble into the coolant hoses that can result in an air
lock and the overheating of the projector.

Section 2: Installation and Setup

Perform a automatic LampLOC™ adjustment when you move, level, or install a
new lamp in the projector.

2.5 Position the Projector

1. Position the projector at an

appropriate throw distance
(projector-to-screen
distance) and vertical
position. Ideally, center the
projector with the screen.
If space is limited, aim the
projector slightly off­center as shown in Figure
2-2. This increases side
keystoning, but reduces
the horizontal lens offset
required.

2. Attach the supplied safety strap to the back of the projector and fasten it to its mounting surface. Use of the

strap is mandatory to prevent the projector from tipping when a lens or auxiliary lens mount is installed.

NOTE: keep the projector lens surface as parallel to the screen as possible, even if significantly above the
screen center. When a particularly short throw distance combines with a very wide screen, you may have to
forfeit some aim and stay more parallel to the screen. In such cases, some lens offset can reduce the keystone
distortion.

020-100882-02 Rev. 1 (07-2012)

Section 2: Installation and Setup

2.6 Adjust Tilt and Level the Projector

The projector’s rear safety strap must be in place before you adjust the

projector’s feet.

DO NOT over-extend the feet. Make sure several threads are engaged into

the projector’s baseplate.

The D4K25 lens should be centered and parallel with the screen. This orientation ensures optimum lens
performance with minimal offset. If this position is not possible (such as when the projector is significantly
higher than the center of the screen), it is better to rely on offset rather than extra tilt.

Use a protractor to measure the degree of screen tilt and then extend or retract the projector feet to match this
angle.

NOTE: The front-to-back tilt of the projector must not exceed 15°. This limit ensures safe lamp operation and
the proper positioning of the liquid cooling reservoir

To adjust the vertical or horizontal position of the projector, extend or
retract the adjustable feet on the bottom of the projector by rotating them.
Once the required adjustment is made, tighten the lock nut.

If you need to adjust the vertical or horizontal position of the projector
beyond what the standard feet allow, you can install two 6 inch extension
rods to increase the amount of adjustment. To install the extension rods
safely:

1. Prop the rear of the projector up to access and remove the two rear
feet. This can be done by one person holding the back end of the
projector up slightly so another person can unthread the feet OR by
propping up the back of the projector with a sturdy object.

2. Add the extension rods to the standard feet.

Figure 2-3 Adjust Feet

3. Thread the newly extended feet back into the projector’s baseplate.
Adjust the feet until the desired tilt is achieved.

4. Lock the feet in place by turning each lock nut until it fits tight against the projector.

2.8 Connect External Exhaust Ducting

Connect the existing outside-venting ductwork to the 8 inch
diameter exhaust port on the top of the projector. Confirm that
there are no obstructions or bends in the ducting, all air intakes
are free of obstructions, and the vane switch at the exit duct
moves freely.

The pre-installed outside-venting duct should be rigid at the
projector and must also include a heat extractor and blower that
maintains a minimum of 450 CFM* when the projector is
operating at less than or equal to 25°C ambient and less than
3,000 feet, when measured at the projector exhaust opening.

• *600 CFM is required in projection rooms with an

ambient temperature above 25°C or located at an
elevation greater than 3000 feet above sea level.

• At minimum, a 10” long, strong metal duct must be

installed at the projector to prevent glass shards
from exiting the duct in the event of a lamp explosion.

Figure 2-7 Connect Exhaust Ducting

2.8.1 Determine the Projector Exhaust CFM Value

Use an airflow meter to measure the ft/min or ft/
sec at the rigid end of the open exhaust duct that
connects to the projector. Take the measurement
at the very end of the duct without the projector
connected. Use this formula to determine the
CFM value for the projector:

Measured linear ft/min x 0.35 = CFM

Table 2.1 Airflow Requirement

Min.

Lamp Type

2.0 kW 450 CFM*

3.0 kW 450 CFM*

Add an extractor or a booster if there is
insufficient airflow. Do not mount the extractor
on the projector as this may introduce some vibration into the image. NOTE: To prevent the projector from

overheating or becoming unsafe, an alarm sounds if the duct is obstructed or a fan fails. It is recommended
that you regularly verify that the exhaust is functioning correctly.

resistor current limited LED’s inside of optocouplers.

A “Health Output” on this connector is also provided for locations that require a projector Health Output. The
output is an open-collector circuit which only draws power when the projector is deemed to be “un-healthy”.
The primary use of the Projector Health Output is to ensure that patrons are not left in a dark location due to
projector fault. Therefore, any fault that results in the content playback stopping should cause this circuit to
draw power and indicate an un-healthy state. The projector is always considered to be “healthy” in Standby
Mode since there is no fear of projector fault causing an impact to patrons in this mode.

4 Adjust the Image

This section provides information and procedures for adjusting the projector image.

4.1 Maximize Light Output

To ensure optimal operation and peak screen brightness, use LampLOC™ to adjust the lamp position
whenever you install a new lamp. When you complete the LampLOC adjustment, the lamp is centered and is
the correct distance from the illumination system. Before running LampLOC, verify that:

• The anode yoke is in the correct position for the lamp type.

• The lamp extension nut is installed when using a CDXL-30SD lamp. Remove the nut if you are not using a
CDXL-30SD lamp.

• The lamp is on and the douser is open.

1. On the Touch Pad Controller, tap the Test Patterns icon.

2. Tap the Full Screen White test pattern.

3. Tap Menu > Advanced Setup > LampLOC™

4. Tap Do Auto.

4.2 Calibrate Screen Brightness (fL)

1. On the Touch Pad Controller, tap Menu > Administrator Setup > Foot Lamberts Calibration.

2. Complete the Foot Lamberts Calibration wizard.

4.3 Basic Image Alignment

This procedure ensures that the image reflected from the digital micromirror device (DMD) is parallel and
centered with the lens and screen. This procedure must be completed before you complete a boresight
adjustment.

1. Verify the projector is properly positioned relative to the screen. See Section 2.5: Position the Projector.

2. Display a test pattern that you can use to analyze image focus and geometry. The framing test pattern

works well for this.

3. Perform a preliminary focus and (if available) a zoom adjustment with the primary lens. Focus the center

of the image first. See Section 5.6: Work with Lenses.

4. Hold a piece of paper at the lens surface and adjust the offsets until the image is centered within the lens

perimeter.

Setup.

5. With the framing test pattern on screen, re-check projector leveling so the top edge of the image is parallel

to the top edge of the screen.

Section 1: Introduction

4.4 Adjust Offset

Project an image with the primary lens. Always adjust offset before boresight.

Select a framing test pattern and then adjust the horizontal and vertical offset to display a square image on the
screen with minimal projector aiming error.

NOTES: 1) For the best optical performance and minimize keystone error, use offset and not aiming to center
the image in off axis installations. 2) Avoid extreme tilts or offsets. Corner vignettes on a white test pattern
indicate extreme offset that should be avoided using mechanical alignment.

4.5 Adjust Offset with an ILS

Project an image with the primary lens. Always adjust offset before boresight. Ensure the correct lens is
selected in the Advanced Setup: Lens Adjust window before calibration to ensure you remain within the
applicable boundary of the installed lens.

1. Tap Menu > Advanced Setup > Lens Setup.

2. Tap Enable Automatic ILS. Enabling Automatic ILS overwrites the pre-defined settings for the channel.

3. Tap the Test Patterns icon and select a framing test pattern.

4. Tap Menu > Advanced Setup > ILS File Setup.

5. Tap the directional arrows in the Offset area. For best optical performance, make sure to minimize
keystone error by using offset more than aiming to center the image in off axis installations. Avoid extreme
tilts or offsets. Corner vignettes on a white test pattern indicates extreme offset that should be avoided
using mechanical alignment.

4.6 Adjust Left and Right Boresight

When performing these adjustments the goal is to balance the tilt of the lens mount to compensate for screen to
projector tilt, but also to precisely maintain the original factory settings of the lens mount axial position.

1. Loosen the horizontal locking screw.

3. Adjust the Focus to retract the lens using the counter-clockwise
button on the ILS Adjust window. Watch the image at the top edge
of the screen until it comes into focus. If the image appears well­focused on the top edge but not on the bottom, we need to
determine if the bottom edge focuses in front of or behind the
screen. If the entire screen comes into focus, skip to step 8.

4. Continue retracting the lens.

a. If the bottom edge of the image comes into focus before the

lens is completely retracted, then the image focuses in front of
the screen. To correct this problem, adjust the Vertical Bore-
sight Bolt to direct or aim the lens mount UP towards the top
of the screen to balance out the top/bottom edges.

b. If the top edge of the image fails to come into focus

then the image focuses behind the screen. To correct
this problem, adjust the Vertical Boresight Bolt to
direct or aim the lens mount DOWN towards the bot­tom of the screen.

are both well-focused.

7. Although all sides of the image should now be in focus,
the center of the image may be slightly blurry at this point. Re-focus the center of the image. The goal is
for good focus at the center and on all sides.

8. Adjust the Vertical Locking Screw to lock the lens mount in place and check boresight again.

4.9 Adjust DMD Convergence

UV EXPOSURE! Protective UV glasses must be worn when performing

convergence adjustments.

A convergence problem occurs when one or more projected colors (red, green, blue) appears misaligned when
examined with a convergence test pattern. Normally, the three colors should overlap precisely to form pure
white lines throughout the image and one or more poorly converged individual colors may appear adjacent to
some or all of the lines. Contact your Christie accredited service technician to correct DMD convergence
issues.

4.11 Calibrating the System

Use the TPC interface for calibrating the image color performance and defining electronic screen masking.
This is required in your particular installation for the creation of Source, Screen, MCGD and TCGD files
necessary for proper display of incoming material. You can also define the system/network configuration for
communication links to the projector and transmit information to and from the D4K25 via an Ethernet or RS­232 connection.

4-6 D4K25 User Manual

020-100882-02 Rev.1 (7-2012)

4.12 Color Calibration

To ensure an accurate color display:

1. Measure the colors displayed on the screen from the center of the audience viewing location to determine
the Measured Color Gamut Data (MCGD) value.

2. On the Touch Pad Controller tap Menu > Advanced Setup > MCGD File Setup and enter the color
values in the x and y fields for the different colors.

3. Tap Save. The software automatically determines the Target Color Gamut Data (TCGD) value. The TCGD
value determines what corrections are needed to display the correct colors.

4.13 Electronic Screen Masking

You can use the masking tool to correct image edge blanking. The masking tool produces results that are
similar to filing the aperture plate in a film projector. After you create the Flat and Scope screen files you can
use them in multiple channels.Hardware Setup

Use an infrared emitter to control gating in active glasses, a polarizing Z-screen (Pi-cell) with passive glasses
or filter wheel with passive glasses.

5.7 Display Content

To display content from standard or high definition sources, connect the source to the DVI-D A and DVI-D B
ports on the input panel. The DVI port auto-detects progressive scan and digital RGB sources and displays
them in their original format. Using two DVI ports as a higher-bandwidth dual-link or twin-link pair is not
supported.

The 3G-SDI ports accept 3G, HD, and SD signals. 4 SDI connectors, 2 from the PIB3G and 2 from the 3GIC
option card, can be used to input 4K resolution image. Each SDI port can accept input from a 2K source. The
top-left corner of the image is sourced by the PIB3G main board channel A, the top-right corner from channel
B, the bottom-left corner from the option card channel A, and the bottom-right corner from the option card
channel B. The 4 inputs must be synchronized with maximum relative delay < 60 pixel clocks. The input

format can be either in YC 4:2:2 10bit or RGB 4:4:4 12bit For a list of compatible DVI and 3G-SDI sources,
see Section Appendix A: Specifications.

5.8 Selecting a Source

The projector uses pre-configured channels to determine how to display images from different sources. Each
channel file contains the optimum processing and display settings for the source. You select channels on the

FRAME RATE N:M NOTES

These N:M ratios define how many frames to display per number of frames that
form one complete image. For all 3D use, the denominator is 2, indicating that two
frames (left and right) are combined into every complete display frame. For non-3D,
it is 1 frame. Set to the highest rate possible without image cropping.

Figure 6-14 Examples of Frame Rate N:M

DARK TIME and OUTPUT DELAY NOTES

The dark time between incoming left and right frames provides a brief interval of non-image time (in
microseconds) for your switching device (such as shutters in glasses) to complete its switch. When this interval
is set properly, neither eye sees image data intended for the other eye and this helps to prevent color artifacts
and ghosting. The output delay setting shifts the 3D sync in relation to the Dark Time interval, starting each
frame slightly earlier (-) or later (+). Too much offset can cause “bleed-through” where each eye sees some
data that is intended for the other, or causes color cropping since some DMD sequences may be clipped.
