RACK-MOUNTED INSTALLATIONS

If this product is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the following items must be considered.

1. The ambient temperature within the rack may be greater than room ambient temperature. The

maximum temperature for the equipment in this environment is 50°C. Consideration should be

given to the maximum rated ambient.

2. Installation should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation is not

compromised, and that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven loading.

3. Check nameplate ratings to assure there is no overloading of supply circuits that could have an

effect on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

4. Reliable grounding of this equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to

supply connections when connecting to power strips, rather than direct connections to the branch

circuit.

5. A quality surge / spike suppresser power strip is recommended to protect the DTS-6D processor.

I. INTRODUCTION

The DTS digital sound process for motion pictures is designed for the digital sound release of motion pictures in

6-track theaters. It is a dual system in that the digital audio data is recorded on CD-ROM discs. A special DTS

timecode is printed on the motion picture print along with a conventional stereo optical soundtrack. The

timecode is used by the DTS system to synchronize the sound and picture. The timecode lies between the

picture and optical sound track, and is printed onto the release print from the soundtrack negative. There is a

single inventory of prints.

The DTS-6D system provides left, center, right, split surrounds (or mono surround) and subwoof channels. The

system allows for play times up to 5 hours. They are completely automatic and fail-safe in operation requiring no

action by the projectionist. The systems automatically start and stop, and track film breaks and change-overs.

The digital audio data is sampled at 44.1K samples per second. APTX100 digital audio data compression (4:1)

is used. Transfer into the process can be made from conventionally mixed analog or digital sound masters.

How Does The DTS-6D System Work?

Using DTS timecode printed on the motion picture film, the DTS-6D system (with matching movie discs loaded)

reads the timecode and plays the correct sound for each frame of film projected. The projectionist inserts the

movie disc(s) into the DTS-6D and threads the film though the DTS timecode reader head. Once the film is

started, the DTS system checks a keyed serial number in the timecode and on the movie disc(s) to assure the

correct sound is being played with the movie being shown. Films released in the DTS digital sound format also

contain a traditional analog (optical) sound track (SR, A-TYPE, or MONO) which serves as a back-up sound

source. If a problem occurs in the DTS digital system, the DTS-6D switches out of digital and pulses the cinema

processor to the proper analog sound format. And at the end of the show, the DTS-6D switches the cinema

processor to the NON-SYNC format.

II. UNPACKING

The packaging is designed to handle normal shipping and handling. Upon receipt of shipment, check for signs of

damage before opening and report all damage to the carrier. All shipments made from DTS are customer

responsibility once they leave our premises.

Before installation is begun it is suggested that a complete inventory be taken to minimize problems or questions

during installation. Additionally, save all packing material until installation is complete in the unlikely event that

a component(s) requires return to the factory. Use the packing slip that came with your unit to verify received

inventory.

Refer to “RETURNS,” page ii, when sending any product back to DTS.

III. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

The DTS-6D system consist of two major components: The DTS Timecode Reader Head and the DTS-6D

processor (player). The following is a generic procedure intended to supplement the processor installation wiring

diagrams for specific manufacturer's sound systems. Look for these diagrams in Section VIII.

3.1 Timecode Reader Head Installation

•The Timecode Reader Head is designed to be mounted onto most projectors with a single mounting

bracket.

•Position the appropriate DTS mounting bracket on the same bolt pattern as the reel arm and bolt securely

in place (see “bracket mounting diagrams,” in Section VIII).

•Install the Timecode Reader Head onto the DTS mounting bracket and bolt into place with supplied

hardware.

•Reinstall the reel arm on the top bolt pattern of the DTS mounting bracket.

•Using some film, align the film path from the reel arm through the DTS reader mounted on a bracket and

to the projector.

•The DTS timecode reader MUST have a straight film path (no angles or twists) and at least a small

amount of tension. The auxiliary flanged roller on the timecode reader head is used to avoid film “walk

out” and helps to stabilize the film. Additional guide rollers may be added to ensure proper film tension -

most critical on platter systems.

•Connect the 9-pin timecode cable and route to the sound processor rack for interconnect with the DTS-

6D processor.

•Two projector (change-over) theaters

Be sure to place each reader head at the same place on the projectors. The offset value must be the

same for the movie to play in sync at both projectors.

3.2 DTS-6D Processor Installation

DTS has configured your DTS-6D processor to interface to the cinema processor as indicated on the packing

list. A DTS-6D labeled “generic” will be set for platter (single projector) operation. If the DTS-6D

processor you are about to install did not come from the factory then you will must check an internal

programming jumper.

** Be sure the rear panel AC voltage switch is properly set for your mains AC supply

rating **

Remove the top cover. See Figure 1.

Programming for Two Projector (change-over) Operation

Locate the timecode board D422 (the card with the 9-pin D-connector on the rear panel and LED's on the

front). Near top center of the board there is a 7-position header called “W1”. A shunt is required vertically

over position “0” (farthest right position) if you are installing for change-over operation.

Programming for One Projector (platter) Operation

Locate the timecode board D422 (the card with the 9-pin D-connector on the rear panel and LED's on the

front). Near top center of the board there is a 7-position header called “W1”. No shunt is required for

platter operation. However, a shunt is supplied with each DTS-6D and this shunt should be in the “holding”

position:Placed horizontally across the top row.

Programming Special Functions

The D422 board contains “W1” (7-position header) that can be used for special applications. Unless specified

otherwise, all factory DTS-6D units are programmed for standard theatrical operation -- which means none

of the special functions, listed below, are used.

If a special function is required, use the table below to program the DTS-6D. To enable any of these

applications, place a shunt vertically across the position needed to perform the operation required.

“W1” Position Special Function

0 Change-over (two timecode sources) enable

1SMPTE timecode enable

2 Don’t read user bits (used w/#1 enabled)

2 Nonsync program enable (when #1 not used)

4 Serial output of timecode

After the DTS-6D is programmed, reinstall top cover.
