5.3. Connection to Cinema Processors
The following instructions are generic procedures intended to supplement the processor installation
instructions for your specific manufacturer's system. Cinema processor interface wiring diagrams are
located in Appendix B of this manual. They show connections and sub-connections.
Refer to the Installation Checklist at the front of this manual.
5.3.1. Dolby
®
CP45, CP55, CP65, CP500, CP650, UltraStereo JS Series,
Panastereo and SMART Operation
The XD10 will automatically send one pulse to the cinema processor, changing the format to DTS.
Whenever the XD10 drops out, a pulse will be sent to switch the cinema processor back to an analog
(usually SR) format.
Set the automation/cues on film so they will not override the format change once the DTS has started
to play, which can result in switching to an incorrect format. Be aware that after a film break, you may
have to manually select the digital format (on the cinema processor) for DTS playback if the XD10
indicates it is playing in digital (the blue light is illuminated).
• CP500: Must have the Cat. 685 (analog input card) installed. DTS is accessed through
Format 11.
• SMART: Mod VI and VII uses the DTS interface cable E709.
For other SMART cinema processors, contact SMART directly at (800) 45-SMART or
+1.770.449.6698.
5.3.2. Dolby
®
DA20 SR-D
®
System
The XD10 can be connected to the Dolby
®
SR-D
®
system without affecting performance of the
Dolby
®
system.
The DA20 connects to the appropriate XD10 breakout board. When the XD10 is off, the DA20 output
is routed through the breakout board. When the XD10 system is on and playing in digital, the DA20
connection (to the cinema processor) is switched out on the breakout card and the DTS digital
soundtrack is given to the cinema processor.
In most instances, the SR-D
®
system should be powered down when playing in DTS.
5.3.3. Sony SDDS
®
The XD10 system cannot connect to the DFP-D2000 and DFP-D2500. It can connect to the DFP-
D3000 and DCP1000. See the interface and cable and interface drawings in Appendixes B and D.
5.3.4. Panastereo CSP1200 and SMART
There is an Automation Preset for Panastereo CSP1200 and SMART CP. For information, see the
section on Predefined Formats in Chapter 7 in this guide.
