    Should you encounter a problem with any part of the projector and require assistance, contact your dealer or one of the Christie service depots listed on the back cover of this manual. If you have purchased the projector, fill out the form below and keep with your records.

  • Page 7: Installation & Setup

    • Connect all 4 cables to the projection head prior to turning the ballast breaker on. • Follow all labeling exactly. Connect all 4 ballast cables—two DC power cables, and 2 HEAD-TO-BALLAST: communication/control cables—between the projector rear and lamp ballast. See Figure 2.1. Roadie 25K User’s Manual...
  • Page 8 Confirm that the ballast’s 3-phase status lights are on and that the adjacent voltmeter displays an acceptable AC level for your ballast and region. See Section 6, Specifications for details. Then set the ballast AC on/off switch to ON and listen for Roadie 25K User’s Manual...

    See Figure 2.4. Figure 2.4. Audience Coverage with a Flat Screen NOTE: Roadie 25K lenses are designed primarily for use with flat screens, but the projector’s depth-of-field range allows the lens to be focused on mildly curved screens as well.
  • Page 12 NOTE: Screens with aspect ratios (proportion) of 4:3 are typically specified by diagonal size, but screens having other aspect ratios—such as the 2048 x 1080 of the Roadie 25K— are usually specified by their horizontal width. See below. Table 2.1. Matching Lenses to Screen Size Lens Type Screen Width (<—>)
