Pcm Interface Panel; Powering Up The Projector - Christie CP2000-M User Manual

• RS-232 A: Connect with a laptop or PC for direct communication with TI light-engine electronics. Trained
users required.
• GPIO: Connect external I/O devices, such as external 3D synchronization devices, for remote control of a
limited number of projector functions. Refer to
pinouts.
• CP2000 M-MALM: Connect to the CP2000-M motorized auxiliary lens mount.

PCM Interface Panel:

• 292 B and 292 A ports: Connect a variety of high-definition cinema sources to these SMPTE 292M bit-
serial standard interface BNCs. The SMPTE 292M inputs support CineLink™ local-link encryption and
can be operated as 2 individually selectable inputs for signals from 2 separate sources. Alternatively, they
can be used together in a dual-link configuration, as a single input supporting a number of special, high-
definition formats, as well as paired 3D (left/right eye) signals.
• DVI D-B and DVI D-A ports: Connect a variety of non-cinema video and graphics sources to either of
these identical single-link DVI-D ports. The 2 DVI-D ports can be operated as separate single-link ports or
using both connectors in parallel, as a single twin DVI port. The projector does not support dual-link DVI.
• Service Ethernet: For future use.
• RS232 B: Connect with a server, PC or laptop for serial communication.
• Management Ethernet (x2): Connect a cinema server directly or as an option, you could use the ethernet
port to connect with an external Ethernet hub for network communications to other cinema devices such as
a switch, server or automation equipment.
• Reset: Use a bent paper clip to reset the PCM via the pin hole. If you reboot with the Lamp ON, resetting
the PCM keeps Lamp ON, Fans ON, and the content may or may not continue playing depending on the
time it takes to reboot. Used only by Service personnel.

Powering Up the Projector

range, as specified on the license label (found on the back of the projector).
This is a manual power-up procedure. Some installations may
include an automation system that controls lamp ignition in
conjunction with other theater variables, such as house lights, audio
and the start of the feature from a digital media storage device/server.
The projector is powered by 200-240VAC power from the theater.
The switching ballast provides a well regulated DC current up to 85
amps with a maximum ballast power of 2.1kW. The power output
from the ballast is controlled by the PCM, via a dedicated 'RS232'
connection from the motherboard to the ballast. A switch selectable
secondary 100-240VAC inlet is provided, allowing the main
electronics to be powered separately, via a universal 100-240VAC
UPS. The main ballast is powered through the main 200-240VAC
inlet. A discrete AC switch above the 2 inlets (Figure 3-1) allows the
user to select whether the main electronics are powered from the
main inlet (requiring only 1 power cord to supply the entire unit), or
the secondary inlet supplied by the UPS, via an additional line cord (not provided).
