Wide Area Network (WAN) port
The Cinema Controller has a Wide Area Network (WAN: 10/100/1000 base-T) port. Use this Ethernet port
(reference 2

The XDX can be connected to a WAN (Wide area network) (reference 2
WAN, users can access the projector from any location, inside or outside (if allowed) their company network
using the Web Communicator software. This software locates the projector on the network if there is a DHCP
server or the user can insert the correct IP-address to access the projector. Once accessed, it is possible to
check and manipulate all the projector settings. Remote diagnostics, control and monitoring of the projector
can then become a daily and very simple operation. The network connectivity allows detection of potential
errors and consequently improves service time.
General Purpose Input / Output (GPI & GPO) ports
These ports can be used to send or receive trigger signals from other devices. These input/output ports can be
programmed by macros created with the Web Communicator application. For more info, refer to the Web
Communicator user guide, section Macro editor.
The GPI ports remains operational when the projector is in Standby mode. So if the factory predefined macro
to wake up the projector is assigned to one of the free GPI port numbers the projector can be awakened via
GPI.
The GPI ports accept a power input of maximum +18V.
3D Interface port
The 3D interface port can be used to connect external 3D devices to the projector. All signals necessary for 3D
projection can be provided via this connector.
The 3D interface port is disabled if the projector is in ECO mode.
USB port
The Cinema Controller is equipped with a master USB port, type "A" connector. This USB port will simplify the
service procedures for firmware updates or for downloading the log files without a network connection.
If the only file on the USB device is the firmware file (a "*.fw" file), the projector will automatically start one of
the following processes.
•
samba<version nr>.fw: The projector will upgrade or downgrade, depending on the version number.
Make sure that any used USB-stick is FAT32 compatible and contains no other files or folders.
