3.13 Remote Control of the Projector

As an alternative to using a keypad, most projector functions can be controlled remotely, typically at a
controller such as a PC, via a web interface.
VIA ASCII MESSAGING — Connect a serial link between your controller and the RS-232 or RS-422 port
(recommended), or open an Ethernet socket (i.e., Telnet) between your controller and the valid projector
address. Valid ASCII codes and messages are documented in the Christie Serial Communications document
available at the Christie website.
VIA WEB INTERFACE — Connect the PC to the projector Ethernet port. In the web browser (i.e., Internet
Explorer), enter the IP address of the projector you wish to control. This will prompt a login screen. The
default login ids are: admin, service, and guest. Up to a maximum of 3 users can connect at any given time.
Two users can use the same account to log in. Each user will see a different set of tabs. The default passwords
can be edited by an administrator or a service user in the Admin tab. Guest users will not see this tab. Basic
operations of the projector can be controlled from this interface and the Virtual OSD can be accessed from
here.

3.14 Alarms

There are two types of alarms:
• Warning Alarm
• Critical Alarm
A warning alarm is generated when an
error or a non-optimal condition has
occurred that will not prevent the
projector from operating. An example is
when a temperature is slightly elevated.
A critical alarm is generated when a condition occurs that could prevent the projector from operating and could
cause damage to the projector. This may cause the projector to shut down automatically. An example would be
a fan not running.
Alarms are displayed:
• on the projector LCD
• in the Status Menu of the OSD (if active)
• in the Web User Interface
When an alarm is displayed on the LCD, the built-in keypad is disabled. Press the OK soft key to re-
NOTE:
enable the built-in keypad.
When the status of the alarm item is within normal range, the alarm will clear.
