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.
Upon installation of a rack-mount server or source within the pedestal, make sure 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 1) access to the pedestal
interior and 2) 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.
Many communications with the projector are initiated on the 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, 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 communications, always connect to the
RS-232 "A" port on this panel (RS-232 "B" uses Christie-proprietary protocol
intended for Christie accessories only).
