8. Connect the projector to the “VGA out” output of the video card (or use a monitor for test
purposes).
9. Reinstall the XD10 cover.
10. Connect the XD10 to the cinema processor.
11. Plug in the unit
12. Reinstall the unit in the rack.
F.1.2. Enable / Test Procedure
1. Power up the projector (or monitor) and adjust cinema processor levels to low.
2. Power up the unit. You should see computer text on the projector as it boots. (If not, see Debug
Procedure, below.)
3. Enable the video feature by installing the license CD in the XD10 DVD drive.
4. The unit will boot up into “test mode” since no other video has yet been loaded.
5. Hit ENTER to access menus. Test hardware by going to Playback | Video | Play Menu | Play.
There is a test clip already on the hard drive, provided with the unit. Wait for the software to load
before the test clip begins playing. You should see the “DTS Playback” and “VIDEO” LEDs are
lighted, indicating that the unit is playing video. At that point you should see video on your
projector or monitor, and hear audio through the Cinema Processor.
F.1.3. Debug Procedure
Symptom Action
No video (either computer text during boot
or video while LEDs are lighted)
Power off the unit and ensure that the video cable into the “VGA IN “
on the video card is connected securely. The unit must be rebooted
(the connection must be good when the XD10 boots up).
F.1.4. Configuration Procedure
1. In the System Setup | Video Setup | Set Application menu, choose Common Height or Common
Width.
2. Calibrate the video overlay by playing the test file. Enter test mode by System Setup | Video
Setup then choose Set Test | Normal.
a. Go to System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video | Cal Width and adjust width so that the right
edge of the motion video is aligned with the edge of the projector output.
b. Go to System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video | Cal Location and adjust location so the left
edge aligns with the left edge of the projector output.
c. Repeat steps (a) and (b) until the image aligns horizontally.
3. Set the output resolution for best image quality.
Setting the XD10 output resolution to match the video projector’s native resolution (1024x768 or
1280x1024) gives the best results. In this case the projector should be set to “native” (or similar
term to indicate no scaling). On the XD10, go to System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video |
Resolution. After a change, some projectors need to be restarted in order to re-sync.
4. Adjust Brightness and Contrast from System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video menus.
