TI CINEMA INTERFACE BOARD

About this kit
This kit contains a TI Cinema Interface Board which is enclosed with a security kit. The installation manual (this document) included in the kit describes how to replace the TI Cinema Interface Board of a Barco DP-3000/DP-2000/DP-1500/DP-200/DP100/DP90 digital projector.

CAUTION: Handle the TI Interface board which is enclosed with a security kit (black housing around the board) with care. Note that the security kit is very sensitive. A small scratch will permanently disable the TI Interface board. Never try to dismantle the security kit. Consult Barco in case of damage. The security kit is needed to protect the decrypting key.

Overview

  • Handling the TI Interface board
  • Storage of the TI Interface board
  • Replacement of the DP-2000/DP-1500/DP-1200 TI Interface board
  • Replacement of the DP-3000/DP100/DP90 TI Interface board

1.1 Handling the TI Interface board
Handling a secured TI Interface board
To protect the decrypting key on TI Interface board the TI Interface board is enclosed with a security kit. This security kit (black housing around the TI Interface board) is very sensible. For that it is important to handle the secured TI Interface board at all times.

  1. Do not make scratches upon the surface of the security kit which is mounted around the TI Interface board. A small scratch will permanently disable the TI Interface board. Caution must be applied during installation.
  2. The security kit is not too sensitive to rubbing. Rubbing with a cloth is OK, but rubbing with ‘sandpaper’ would be bad.
  3. Do not apply excessive pressure at the corners of the (bottom) clamps or the corners of the enclosures. If sufficient enough a tamper event will occur.
  4. Do not write on the security kit.
  5. Do not put a label on the security kit.
  6. Never try to dismantle the security kit. Consult Barco in case of damage.

Note that the secured TI Interface board has three wires attached. These wires are only for storage purposes at the factory (loading the internal battery). See installation instructions for how to attach the wires.
CAUTION: Private key of the TI Interface board will be erased permanently when battery is flat, disabling encrypted content. See chapter “Storage of the TI Interface board”, page 3 for recharging instructions.

1.2 Storage of the TI Interface board
Storage time limit
The TI Interface board contains a battery. When the battery is flat the private key of the TI Interface board will be erased permanently which disabling encrypted content. For that it is very important that battery charging must be done prior to the expiry date mentioned on the expiry label on the box.
Recharging the battery
To charge the battery inside the security enclosure, the TI Interface board can be installed in the projector and the projector should be powered for at least 6 hours continuously. It is not required to strike the lamp. After charging, the lifetime of the battery is guaranteed to be at least 6months. Keep track of this when the projector is not frequently used.
An other possibility to charge the battery is the use of an adapter kit. See Barco secured web site for more information.

1.3 Replacement of the DP-2000/DP-1500/DP-1200 TI Interface board
Before swapping the TI Interface Board, try to make a copy of the created macro files, so you can restore them later in the new TI Interface Board. See chapters “Cloning” and “Restoring” in the user guide of the Communicator software.
This procedures assumes that the Input & Communication unit is already removed from the projector.
CAUTION: Removing the Input & Communication unit from the projector will result in an authorization request upon startup.

Necessary tools

  • 5,5 mm nut driver or open-end wrench.
  • 2,5 mm Allen wrench.
