Section 1: Introduction

C.1 Serial Links to Projector

C.1.1 Standard RS-232 Devices
From a PC, connect a standard 9-wire RS-232 serial cable (CTS/RTS) to the serial communication panel port
labeled RS-232A on the Source and Communication Connection Panel located on the underside of the
projection head near the front.
Note that a serial link is adequate for DCP Librarian use, or for downloading new main software (both tasks
require a qualified Christie service technician). It cannot be used for ASCII messaging (since the TPC
recognizes Ethernet only), and is too slow for servers.
C.1.2 Cine-IPM 2K
Connect the Cine-IPM 2K's custom RS-232 cable from the rear of the Cine-IPM 2K to the serial communica-
tion panel port labeled RS-232B on the Source and Communication Connection Panel located on the underside
of the projection head near the front. The RS-232B port uses Christie-proprietary protocol and is compatible
with Christie accessories only.
Linking the Cine-IPM 2K to the RS-232B port enables Cine-IPM 2K sources to be selected at the TPC.
IMPORTANT! Do not use RS-232B port with other devices.
Refer to Figure 2-28 Tilt Projector to Match Screen, on page 2-19 for serial port locations. Access from
within the pedestal.
