Section 2: Installation and Setup
PC/Laptop, Server or Network: To communicate with the CP2000 from a computer, server or an
existing network, connect the equipment to the Ethernet hub within the pedestal. If Ethernet is not
available at your site, connect a standard serial cable to the ‘RS-232’ "A" port instead. This
communication link is acceptable for using a PC/laptop to run Christie's DCP Librarian or to download
new software, but is too slow for server communications and does not support ASCII messaging to the
TPC (which requires Ethernet). Connect ‘RS-232’, as shown in Figure 2-27 and route as shown in
Figure 2-23, Figure 2-24, Figure 2-25 and Figure 2-26.
NOTE: For serial communication using a PC, laptop or server, use only the ‘RS-232’ “A” port. The
‘RS-232’ “B” port utilizes Christie-proprietary protocol intended for Christie accessories only.
2.4 ADJUST TILT AND LEVELING
NOTE: Disconnect from AC for these initial alignments. Images are not yet needed.
In an ideal installation, the CP2000 lens surface is centered with and parallel to the screen. This
orientation helps ensure optimized lens performance with minimal offset (Figure 2-28). If this position
is not possible (such as when the projector is significantly higher than the center of the screen), it is
better to rely on offset rather than tilt.
Before adjusting tilt, ensure the projector is as WELL-CENTERED () with the theatre screen as
possible for your installation area.
Check with theatre personnel for the degree of screen tilt, or measure this incline with a protractor at
the screen. Then tilt the projector to closely match the tilt angle of the screen,
To tilt the projector:
1. Disconnect projector from AC power.
2. Use a wrench to rotate front and rear feet until projector tilt matches screen tilt. You can achieve up
to 12° tilt by adjusting the feet (Figure 2-29).
