Solution

The Status tab > Signal group on the TPC contains information about all the signals that the 
projector receives. A properly configured system shows the frequency and status of Master or 
Locked for each input in the selected channel. Examine the Status tab > Signal group before any 
boards are replaced.

• If one or more of the signals are listed as No signal, verify that the source is properly 

configured and the cables are secure between the source and the projector.

• If one or more of the signals are listed as Inactive, either an incorrect channel has been 

selected or the cables are not plugged into the correct inputs.

• If one or more of the signals is listed as Unlocked or Out of phase, the source is not properly 

frame locked to the master signal. This usually occurs when two independent sources are not 
locked together. Check the setup of the sources. If the sources are locked together, contact 
Christie Technical Support for help.

• Replace the THIC cards to see if this resolves the problem.

• If the above cannot resolve the issue, replace the ABP.
