The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol superimposed
across a graphical representation of a person, within an equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure; that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.

1 Introduction
1.1 Introduction
This document explains how to install the IMB into a Christie Series-2 projector. This document
also describes the steps required to perform the “marriage” between the IMB SM and the
projector electronics. Marriage is the process of engaging the DCI physical and software
interlocks that enable the display of secured materials.
The IMB requires a Doremi ShowVault server in order to work. This document also explains how
to set up and connect the ShowVault server to the IMB board.
1.2 Purpose
One of the key ideas behind marriage is that an authority figure examines the projector and
ensures that it has not been tampered with before a marriage can be performed. This means
that a person must be physically at the projector when the marriage is performed. It cannot be
done remotely. To ensure an authority figure is present, there is a physical marriage button (or
RFID key) on the projector which must be pressed in order for the marriage process to
complete. Please contact your system administrator or Christie Technical Support for the
required passwords.
1.3 Software Version
This manual was written and performed on ShowVault software version 2.0.10.
It also made (written) with IMB Revision E board, but it is valid for all IMB hardware
revisions.
This document is to be used with IMB SM 5.0.5 and higher.
It is also to be used on Christie projector software 1.4 or higher with TI (ICP) firmware
2.2.294 or higher (this firmware is installed by the Christie installer program).

3.1.1 HD-SDI Input
Dual HD-SDI input compliant with SMPTE 292M and SMPTE 372M.
HD-SDI input capable of supporting 3 GHz signals per SMPTE 424M. Mapping per
SMPTE 425M is not implemented yet, but it will be available via a software update.
The following are 2D formats that are currently supported on the HDSDI input of the IMB:
3.1.2 HD-SDI Output
IMB Revision A: HD-SDI output is not available.
IMB Revision E: Dual HD-SDI output compliant with SMPTE 292M and SMPTE 372M.
HD-SDI output capable of supporting 3 GHz signals per SMPTE 424M.
Note: With the current firmware, the HD-SDI Output is not used.
