Array is plugged into Port 5 thus becoming a sequence with SoniDisc ID numbers from 5001 to
5018.
With each SoniStrip mounted in the same orientation on the ceiling and pointing down, the normal
vectors then for the installation and wiring shown in Figure 18 become:

3.3.2. SoniStrip Mounting for Power Wall Installations
The following is an example of an installation for a typical power wall.
A typical immersive display wall consists of one or more stereo projectors that illuminate a flat (or
curved) screen. This type of display is ideal for mounting the IS-900 SoniStrips surrounding the
screen with each SoniStrip angled at 45 degrees towards the center of the screen. Figure 19
shows a typical, two-projector, flat display using six, 6-foot SoniStrips in a perimeter mount
configuration.
Figure 19 - Power Wall Perimeter mounting (front forward view)
Each SoniStrip is mounted along the edge of the display using the InterSense provided angle
brackets. The SoniStrips on the top and bottom of the display are spaced approximately 2 to 3
feet apart, depending on the size of the display wall. The InterSense coordinate system for
Figure 19 has X forward looking into the screen, Y positive to the right, and Z positive down in
the direction of gravity.
Each SoniStrip is wired in sequence with the bottom left corner connecting to Port 5 of the IS-900
Processor. The SoniStrip ID numbers are defined by the wiring and port number and become a
sequence with numbers from 5001 to 5018.
