page 2.26 2. InstallationiS15-2K Cinema Projector: User Manual Cinema Inputs (SMPTE 292 / HD-SDI) For cinema use, this will be the main input port for the projector. The two inputs can be configured as follows: • one dual SMPTE 292 port • two separate, individually selectable single SMPTE 292 ports. The following source formats will be recognised and decoded by the projector electronics: • SMPTE 274M • SMPTE RP211 • SMPTE 295M • SMPTE 260M • SMPTE 296M HDSDI is a 1.4Gb link, therefore the following or similar cable specification should be used to ensure fault free communication between source and projector. • Belden 8281 or equivalent with 75ohm BNC Fitting a ferrite-core clamp Fit a ferrite-core clamp to each SDI cable used. • Prise open the catches to open the clamp. • Position the clamp close to the projector end of the SDI cable, and close it firmly around the cable, so that the catches snap shut. • Fasten a cable tie close to the clamp, to ensure that the clamp stays in place. Notes For more information about input connectors see Connections, in section 6. Appendix. For more information about supported input formats see Specification, in section 6. Appendix. A ferrite-core clamp must be fitted to each SDI cable used, to ensure protection from radio frequency interference. Cinema inputs SDI A and SDI B
page 2.27 iS15-2K Cinema Projector: User Manual 2. Installation DVI-D Inputs The projector can also accept signals from a variety of alternative sources, via the two DVI-D inputs. An external image processing unit can be located close to source equipment such as computers, video tape players and DVD players etc. Therefore, only the projector needs to be located in the projection booth. The two inputs can be configured for use as: • two separate, individually selectable Single DVI-D inputs • one Twin link DVI-D input For short distances, a regular DVI-D cable may be used, but for distances greater than 5 metres the DigiLink high bandwidth optical connection system is recommended. EDID handshaking If you are using a computer DVI card or other DVI source that obeys the EDID handshaking protocol, then the card or source will automatically configure itself to suit the projector. If not, then you should refer to the documentation supplied with the DVI source to manually set the resolution to 2048 x 1080 or the nearest suitable setting. Notes For more information about input connectors see Connections, in section 6. Appendix. For more information about supported input formats see Specification, in section 6. Appendix. Cable complexity and interference can be reduced by using the Digilink high bandwidth optical connection system. Contact your dealer for more information. The resolution of the DMD fitted to the projector is 2048 x 1080 pixels. This projector does not perform any image processing on signals connected to the DVI-D inputs - an external image processor such as the MMS 1000 is recommended for this purpose. The MMS multimedia switcher does not use EDID protocols, therefore you should use the MMS menus to manually set the output resolution as follows: • Switcher Options → Page 5 →Output Resolution → 2k x 1k (2048 x 1080) DVI-D inputs A and B
page 2.28 2. InstallationiS15-2K Cinema Projector: User Manual Control connections LAN 1 and LAN 2 The projector can be controlled from a computer via a LAN connection, using a standard ethernet cable (not supplied). Interlocks I/L is a pair of relay contacts, which are normally closed, but are open under the following conditions: • lamp door open • insufficient air flow • over-temperature • other internal fault (see LCD screen for error message) The I/L contacts can be used for remote monitoring of the projector status (active/ inactive). The two I/L indicators above the connector block show: • projector active (green) - all interlocks closed • projector inactive (amber) - an internal interlock is open. Lamp off and projector in standby EXT I/L can be connected to the output contacts of a theatre safety system. If the projector is not connected to a theatre safey system, EXT I/L must be shorted by a wire link, otherwise the projector will go into the inactive state. The EXT I/L indicator above the connector block shows: • interlock fail (red) - an external interlock is open.
