5.2.1. XD10 Player Installation
5.2.1.1. Rack Mounting and Connection
The XD10 player is designed to integrate into your existing theater sound system without affecting
normal theater operation. All interconnects are standalone and most systems require no cuts or
jumpers.
The XD10 requires 3U of standard rack space (5 1/4 x 15 x 19 inches) for proper mounting. Select a
space in the sound rack within three feet of the cinema processor to which you are connecting.
1. Bolt the XD10 into the selected rack space.
2. Check that the XD10 front panel power switch is in the OFF position.
Caution: Because the XD10, like any other computer-based system, can be damaged by power
line surges, we recommend using a computer-grade surge/spike suppresser.
3. Connect the analog and logic cables/cards to your cinema sound processor. (See Appendix B for
wiring diagrams and Appendix C for cable assembly diagrams, including installation into sound
racks containing digital sound systems from Dolby
®
and/or Sony.)
4. If installing to a SMART cinema processor, contact SMART directly at
(800) 45-SMART. DTS does offer SMART interface cables: for MODVI or VII use DTS #E709.
5. Connect the supplied power cable between the XD10 and your power source.
