2.2.1 SUPPORT FOR INTERNAL SERVERS/SOURCES
A series of holes around the top perimeter of the pedestal frame accommodates strapping for support
of internal equipment. To maximize air circulation and cooling within the pedestal, install longest
devices in the highest rack-mount slot (where they will not significantly block airflow).
2.2.2 SECURITY FOR INTERNAL SERVERS/SOURCES
Upon installation of a rack-mount server or source within the pedestal, make sure to re-install the pair
of vertical rack protector posts at the rear. They will overlap the sides of your rack-mount equipment
and help prevent access to the pedestal interior and theft of rack-mounted equipment.
NOTE: Keep extra CP rear covers (horizontal plates) removed for rack-mounted equipment. These
covers must be re-installed if the equipment is removed from the projector. Do not operate the CP with
"open" slots at the rear.
2.3 CONNECTING FOR COMMUNICATIONS
Many communications with the projector are initiated on the TPC mounted at the rear of the projector.
Depending on the installation, you may also need certain other serial and/or Ethernet links to the
CP2000, such as from a server or PC functioning as a controller, or from an existing on-site network
including other equipment. Connections are typically done at time of installation, and then the
projector is locked and protected from unauthorized changes. In rare cases, serial and/or Ethernet links
are needed only by the installer and are disconnected afterwards.
Connect up to a total of five Ethernet links to the 5-port hub within the pedestal, which in turn connects
to the Communication and Source Connection Panel at the underside of the projection head. For serial
communications, always connect to the ‘RS-232’ "A" port on this panel (‘RS-232’ "B" uses Christie-
proprietary protocol intended for Christie accessories only).

TPC: Connect the TPC cable to the Ethernet hub within the pedestal (this is usually pre-connected
from factory).
