ECI Background:
The Electronic Cinema Interface (ECI) is designed to select a single input from a
variety of sources and then feed the selected source into a cinema processor. The
ECI provides inputs from 6 Channel Analog, 2 Channel Analog, 8 Channel Digital,
Toslink, and two SPDIF sources. The output is fed into the host cinema proces-
sor's External Analog Input (6 Channels). A balanced 2 channel analog output of
AES channels 7 and 8 is provided.
Additionally, to synchronize the audio to the video source, each channel is capable
of up to 300ms delay. Input Delays – Each stage channel L, C, R, SW) is capable
of up to 200ms delay allowing for projector delay . Surround Delays - For the sur-
round channels (LS, RS), an additional delay of up to 100ms may be added to the
Input Delay. Delays can be configured for each type of input.
When a digital format is not selected an additional input allows a 6 channel analog
signal to bypass the ECI and be fed directly into the cinema processor's External
Analog Input.
Input trim gains of up to 18dB may be added to the 2 and 6 Channel Analog Inputs.
There are no input trims on the digital inputs.
Output Trim attenuation of up to 20dB may be applied to each of the Digital
Modes.
