Front Panel and Alignment Overview

of the general principles involved in the alignment of Dolby
®
cinema equipment. It is
useful to develop an understanding of why the CP650 is aligned as described in this
manual. If the installer is already familiar with the CP650 and these principles, or is
in a hurry to complete the installation, this chapter may be read later. Continue the
setup procedure beginning with the next chapter.
