3. Hardware Installation
Installation
Use the following steps to install a wide screen Encore configuration:
1. Follow the unpacking procedures as listed in the “Unpacking and Inspection”
section on page 62.
2. In Appendix A, refer to the “Physical and Electrical Specifications” section on
page 367 for electrical and mechanical details.
3. In Chapter 2, refer to the “Video Processor Rear Panel” section on page 45 and
the “
Controller Rear Panels” section on page 58 for all connector locations.
4. For each VP and VPx, follow the rack mount procedures as outlined in the “Rack-
Mount Installation” section on page 62.
5. Ethernet Connections — a totally “local” network connection is recommended:
a. Connect the VP(s), VPx(s) and Controller to the Switch.
b. Connect router(s) to the Switch.
c. As required, connect ScreenPRO-II, PresentationPRO-II and ImagePRO
systems to the Switch.
6. Direct Source Connections — if you elect to use direct connections, in place of
(or in addition to) router connections:
a. As a prerequisite, complete your “Connection Charts” on page 89.
b. Connect the desired “direct” sources to each M/E’s input connectors on
each VP or VPx. In a wide screen system, scaled sources only connect
to Processor 1. “Links” carry the signals to the other VP or VPx units.
c. Unscaled Backgrounds must originate from computers with multi-head
graphics cards, and connect to the same input on each VP or VPx.
S To connect an unscaled background source in a triple processor
system (each VP or VPx with three M/Es):
• Connect the computer’s “head 1” to processor 1, input 3A
• Connect the computer’s “head 2” to processor 2, input 3A
