Support For Internal Servers/Source; Security For Internal Servers/Source; Connecting For Communications - Christie CP2000-SB User Manual

Section 1: Introduction

2.2.1 Support for Internal Servers/Source

A series of holes around the top perimeter of the pedestal frame accommodates strapping for support of
internal equipment. To maximize air circulation and cooling within the pedestal, install your longest devices in
the highest rack-mount slot available where they will not significantly block airflow.

2.2.2 Security for Internal Servers/Source

Upon installation of a rack-mount server or source within the pedestal, ensure to re-install the pair of vertical
rack protector posts at the rear. They will overlap the sides of your rack-mount equipment and help prevent
access to the pedestal interior and theft of rack-mounted equipment.
NOTE: Keep on hand any extra CP rear covers (horizontal plates) removed for rack-mounted equipment.
These covers must be re-installed if the equipment is removed from the projector in the future. Do not operate
the CP with open slots at the rear.

Connecting for Communications

Many communications with the projector are initiated on the Touch Panel Controller (TPC) mounted at the rear
of the projector. Depending on the installation, you may also need certain other serial and/or Ethernet links to
the CP2000-SB, such as from a server or PC functioning as a controller, or from an existing on-site network
including other equipment. Connections are typically done at time of installation, and then the projector is
locked and protected from unauthorized changes. In rare cases, serial and/or Ethernet links are needed only by
the installer and are disconnected afterwards.
Connect up to a total of five Ethernet links to the 5-port hub within the pedestal, which in turn connects to the
Communication and Source Connection Panel at the underside of the projection head. For serial communica-
tions, always connect to the RS-232 A port on this panel (RS-232 B uses Christie-proprietary protocol intended
for Christie accessories only).
