3. Basic checks of site and installation. Before you begin making settings and adjustments to your DFP-3000 system, it’s best to confirm some basic conditions. Here is a check list. 3.1 Check that the Decoder environment is suitable. The DFP-D3000 Decoder is intended to be mounted in a rack chassis along with other cinema equipment. However, it should not be mounted in close proximity to power amplifiers or other equipment which may radiate strong magnetic fields or which give off high heat. Obs

AUX inputs. If either of the two 8-wide balanced AUX inputs are used for sources other than cinema processors, take note that the sophisticated automatic fallback system of the DFP-3000 requires these inputs to be enabled by a logic command to make them active. To use AUX1 or AUX2 for external sound sources other than digital film sound decoders, short Pin 34 (AUX1 DATA OK) or Pin 35 (AUX2 DATA OK) to GROUND on the Automation connector to enable the AUX1 or AUX2 inputs. See Tech Note TN99042801.

4. Checks of correct DFP-R3000 Reader mounting. Do not “hot plug” the Reader! The Reader gets its power through the cable that connects it to the Decoder. Do not remove or install this cable while the Decoder power is on. Doing so may cause damage to the Reader and void the warranty. 4.1 Confirm the minimum frame offset. Specific installation instructions for mounting the Reader to each type of projector are available in the DFP-R3000 Installation Guide provided with the Reader. Following these

5. A-Chain alignment using DFP-D3000 front panel controls The most direct means of A-Chain alignment is to use with external test equipment and the controls available through the Decoder front panel. There are two approaches. The first, recommended for experi- enced cinema engineers, is to align the projector’s optical playback system so as to produce nominal settings (preset gain = 0.0 dB) in the DFP-D3000. This has the potential benefit of best sound quality as preamplifiers, noise reduction,
