XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide Version 2.1
55 Document #: 9301E692002.1
5.2.2. Power Supply
The XD10 power supply automatically switches itself to accommodate AC input of between 110 VAC
and 220 VAC.
The cooling fan in the power supply must be rotating when power is applied.
To prevent dirt from being pulled into the DVD drives, do not block the ventilation holes at the
side of the XD10 player.
5.2.3. DTS Timecode Reader Head Installation
The DTS Timecode Reader Head is designed to be mounted onto most projectors with a single
mounting bracket.
1. Position the appropriate DTS mounting bracket on the same bolt pattern as the reel arm and bolt
securely in place. (See Appendix E for reference.)
2. If both 35mm and 70mm reader heads are to be used on the same bracket, add spacer breakaway
plates to the readers. (See Appendix E for reference.)
3. Install the DTS Timecode Reader Head onto the DTS mounting bracket and bolt into place with
supplied hardware.
4. Re-install the reel arm on the top bolt pattern of the DTS mounting bracket.
5. Align the DTS mounting bracket and the reel arm. Align the film along the path from the reel
arm, through the mounted DTS Timecode Reader Head, to the projector.
Important: The DTS timecode reader MUST have a straight film path (no angles or twists) and
at least a small amount of tension. Use the auxiliary flanged roller on the DTS Timecode
Reader Head to avoid film “walk out” and to stabilize the film. (See the section on Installing or
Changing Auxiliary Timecode Reader Head Roller in Appendix I: Technical Maintenance, for
reference.) Additional guide rollers may be added to ensure proper film tension. This is most
critical on platter systems.
6. Connect the 9-pin timecode cable to the reader and route to the sound rack. Connect the other end
to the XD10 player rear panel “Timecode” connector.
5.2.3.1. Two Projector (Change-over) Theaters
Use a DTS timecode “Y” cable that will connect two readers to one XD10. Be sure to place each
reader at the same location on each projector. This is to ensure the soundtrack plays in sync. The
timecode offset values (distance from DTS reader to the projector’s picture gate) must be the same for
each projector.
