All input signals processed by the Cine-IPM 2K are routed to the identical DVI
outputs located on the rear panel of the unit. Connect
DVI-1
to the
DVI-1
connector on
the CP2000 (cable provided). If desired, connect an additional display device such as
a digital monitor using
DVI-2
. Shown are 4 typical applications for the Cine-IPM 2K :
• 8-bit mode for one CP2000 (Figure 2.12A)
• 8-bit mode for CP2000 and a digital monitor (Figure 2.12B)
• 8-bit mode for two CP2000s (Figure 2.12C)
• 8-bit or 10-bit mode for one CP2000 (Figure 2.12D)
Figure 2.12. Connecting for 8-bit vs. 10-bit Use
If desired, such as when you have digital progressive source data, you can output it in
10-bit format for a single
CP2000 connected to the Cine-IPM 2K . This is shown in
Figure 2.12D above. Because Cine-IPM 2K’s 10-bit output is divided between the
two DVI ports, with
DVI-1
handling the most-significant 8 bits and
DVI-2
handling the
remaining least-significant 2 bits, 10-bit mode requires both outputs connected to the
corresponding CP2000
DVI
ports.
Selecting 8-bit or 10-bit Mode
With the Figure 2.12D configuration, you can use either 8-bit or 10-bit Cine-IPM 2K
mode for all sources. Make sure to set this mode (a.k.a. “Data Format”) in 2 places:
