XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
Introduction
The DTS XD10, Cinema Media Player is designed to deliver 10 channels of scalable digital surround
sound, high quality video for alternate media, and to support access options such as projected subtitles,
Rear Window captioning, and a descriptive audio narration. The XD10 is an expandable, reliable and
user-friendly media solution for pre-show and feature film presentation. The XD10 is also compatible
with both traditional film playback and digital cinema.
It is a dual system with reference to film sound in that the digital audio data is recorded on DVD/CDROM discs and then loaded onto the hard drive. Proprietary DTS timecode, that is used to synchronize
the sound and picture, is printed onto the release print from the soundtrack negative. The DTS timecode is
printed between the picture and the optical sound track.
The DTS XD10 provides the standard 5.1 channel outputs: Left, Center, Right, Left Surround, Right
Surround, and Subwoofer (L, C, R, LS, RS, SW). In addition, the XD10 can provide Left Center, Right
Center, Back Surround, and Auxiliary outputs for select releases. A Mono Surround output, derived from
mixing the LS and RS outputs, is also available.
The system allows for storage of up to 30 complete film sound tracks loaded on its hard drive at any one
time. Once the film sound information is loaded, no further action is needed from the projectionist. The
system automatically starts; stops, and tracks film breaks and changeovers. Cinema Subtitling System
(CSS) interface capability can be added easily with additional licensing, and two options are available to
expand the system functionality to include either a video board or a second expansion board for additional
audio channels. There is also an option for AES/EBU digital output board that can be configured two
ways.
DTS encoded material is available in two formats: standard and Coherent Acoustics. Material recorded in
standard digital audio at a 44.1K sample rate with digital audio data compression (4:1) provides 8 audio
channels plus 2 auxiliary channels. Material recorded with Coherent Acoustics encoding is scalable, and
allows for lossless compression if desired, as well as 96/24. Coherent Acoustics provides for 10 audio
channels, plus 2 auxiliary channels. The auxiliary channels will not be phase coherent with the main
output channels. The audio used in conjunction with the video will be Coherent Acoustics PCM 48/24
and will be compatible to standard DVD recordings. Note that the XD10 will NOT play consumer type
DVDs.
Containing an internal hard drive capable of storing up to 30 feature film soundtracks, the XD10 offers
the flexibility of storing multiple languages of one title or multiple titles. The product is also capable of
playing back enhanced video for alternate media, and has networking and pre-show programming features
for an integrated presentation.
For reliability, the XD10’s internal hard drive is used as the film sound signal source. Two DVD drives
are provided to download film sound information to the hard drive. When discs are loaded into the player,
the system downloads the first reel (in approximately 30 seconds), and then begins to play the film. The
balance of the reels is recorded onto the XD10 hard drive while the first reel is being played.
The downloading process needs to be performed only one time; after that, playback is automatic. XD10
will automatically load and store up to 30 full-length films. Subsequent loading is accommodated by
sequential replacement of previously loaded films.
DTS timecode assures not only accurate sound and picture synchronization, but is keyed to assure films
are run with the correct audio tracks. 35mm films released in the DTS digital sound format also contain a
traditional analog (optical) sound track (SR, A-TYPE, or MONO) to serve as a back-up sound source. To
further ensure fail-safe operation, XD10 will perform automatic error detection. If problems are detected
with the digital sound, the system automatically switches to the proper analog sound format.

XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
1. Operational Overview
This chapter includes instructions for loading DTS movie and trailer discs into the XD10 and discusses
basic operation before, during, and after a show. The XD10 menu structure is described, and the various
submenus and options are explained. Language Management, check procedures, and compatibility topics
are covered near the end of this chapter.
1.1. Loading Discs
The XD10 contains two DVD/CD-ROM drives and a large capacity internal hard drive. Up to thirty fulllength features can be stored on the hard drive. All titles (such as movie digital sound tracks) are played
from the hard drive and titles are loaded to the hard drive from DTS cinema discs. DTS cinema discs are
placed in the DVD/CD-ROM drives for transferring to the hard drive. Either drive A or B can be used to
download DTS cinema titles. Once the XD10 is set up and the cinema discs are loaded, feature films,
trailers, videos (if equipped with the Video Option), and subtitles/narration/captions (if equipped with the
CSS Option) can be played directly from the XD10. The XD10 automatically starts, stops, and tracks
film breaks and changeovers without needing any action from the projectionist/operator.
Note: The system uses caddy-less DVD/CD-ROM drives. The drive will not accept a
DVD/CD-ROM disc in a caddy or case. You must remove the disc from its case and place it
on the DVD/CD tray.
The DTS digital sound track will automatically download to the hard drive. Once the download is
complete, a “Complete” message will display, prompting you to open the drive door to remove the disc
and place it in its carrier. Place the carrier and disc back into the film can and return it to the film depot
along with the print.
Load DTS cinema video discs as you would DTS cinema sound discs. Be aware that the disc must be
labeled as a “DTS Cinema Video” disc. This disc has special formatting that enables the material to
become part of the XD10 “Video Playlist”. It must be part of the Video Playlist in order for the material
to be available for playback at the appropriate time.
1.1.1. Contents File Management
The hard drive capacity is 40 gigabytes. As additional material is loaded onto the hard drive, the drive
may approach or reach its capacity for storage. In that case, loading new material will necessitate
deletion of existing material, to make room. The XD10 file management approach is based on identifying
existing material that has not been played recently.
The system keeps a list of data files. Whenever a show is played, or loaded from a disc, all material for
that show is put at the head of the list. Therefore, files that have not played recently move down the list.
The file that has not been played for the longest time is at the bottom of the list.
When a new CD-ROM is loaded, the program starts at the bottom of the list and deletes enough files to
make room to copy the new material.
You can also use the PLAYBACK | CONTENTS menu to selectively delete features and trailers from the
hard disc. (See page 1-14).
1.1.2. About DTS Movie Discs
DTS movie discs are issued to theaters from the film studio’s distribution company. Make sure the discs
you are loading match the movie you want to play (for example, “Jurassic Park” film with “Jurassic Park”
movie discs). Download one movie title at a time. Always return discs with the print.
Note: If film and discs do not match, the digital sound track will not play, when selected for
playback on the Playlist.
Operational Overview
1-1
Document #: 9301E692001.0
XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
Films that run 90 minutes or less require only one disc. These films, labeled “one disc only”, can be
placed in either of XD10’s two drives.
Caution: Do NOT insert any other disc into the second drive while loading a single-disc title.
Films running longer than 90 minutes will have two movie discs: one labeled Track A and another
labeled Track B. These discs can be inserted into XD10’s two DVD drives in any order.
Note: On rare occasions, features may have a third disc. In this case, simply load the three
discs one-at-a-time, ignoring messages about “missing” discs.
Any trailers added to DTS movie disc(s) will be listed on the front of each disc.
1.1.3. About DTS Trailer Discs
DTS trailer discs can be inserted into either of XD10’s two DVD drives. These discs are issued to theaters
directly from DTS, with trailer titles listed on them.
Note: Trailers that are not listed on the front of the disc (even though encoded with DTS
timecode) will play in analog only. To verify you have the latest trailer disc, contact DTS
Post Production.
Caution: Do NOT insert multiple trailer discs into the two DVD drives, nor insert a trailer
disc in combination with any movie disc
Note: Use only DTS cinema feature and trailer discs. Music CDs and DVDs for home use
will NOT work in the XD10 Player.
1.2. Basic Operation
1.2.1. Loading a Disc (General)
The XD10 uses DVD/CD-ROM drives (referred to herein as “DVD drives”). Remove the disc from its
case and place it on the DVD/CD tray for loading to the hard drive. If there are two discs, they should be
loaded at the same time using both DVD drives.
Note: Disc(s) can be loaded while a movie is playing. Loading will not interfere with
playback.
1. Power on the unit (if it is not already ON). The Main power switch is on the rear of the unit
(and should always be ON). The Standby / On switch is on the front of the XD10 – turn it
ON.
2. Press the open/close button on either of the XD10’s DVD/CD drives to slide open the tray.
3. Remove any disc(s) that was previously left in the tray(s).
4. Remove the disc(s) you want to load from its case and place it on the tray.
The disc must lay printed-side-up and lay flat in the tray.
5. To slide the tray back into the drive, press the open/close button or gently push the drawer
inward.
The disc contents will now automatically download. When the download is complete, the
LCD display will show “Complete”. Then press the ENTER button(s) to eject the tray(s).
Operational Overview

Version 1.0
Figure 1. Loading a disc
6. Remove the disc from the tray and place it in its case. Put the case and disc back into the film
carrier for return to the depot with the print.
DTS trailer discs may be stored. They do not need to be returned. When a new trailer is
loaded (replacing the previous one), you may discard the old trailer disc(s).
1.2.2. Loading a 2-disc Movie
Movie soundtrack discs must be loaded as a set (if more than one disc movie). Insert both discs into the
two DVD drives. If only one of two discs are loaded, then the following message appears:
Warning: Second Disc
May be Missing
Insert Second Disc
[Enter] - Ignore
Press ENTER to Ignore the warning
and continue loading. Otherwise,
insert the second disc into the other
disc drive, and the XD10 will clear
the message and continue loading.
If the A and B discs are not from a matching set, then another error message appears. The problem could
be any of the following:
•
The two discs are from different movies.
•
The two discs are the same movie but one is a different language.
•
The two discs are both disc A (or both disc B).
•
One of the discs is not a movie disc.
ERROR:
Installed Discs
Are Not a Set
[Left] Abort Load
Press ◄ to Abort the loading
process. Both drives will eject.
1.2.3. Loading a 1-disc movie
Place the disc into either drive. There is a slight chance that the player may ask for the second disc. If you
are sure there is only one disc, then press ENTER to ignore the message and continue loading.
1.2.4. Loading a 3-disc movie
There are currently no provisions for loading a 3-disc movie. The sure way to make it work is to load one
disc at a time and override the warning about “missing second disc”.
Operational Overview
1-3
Document #: 9301E692001.0
XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
1.2.5. CD-ROM Read Error
If an error occurs reading a file, then only part of the file (or reel) will be copied. For trailers it would only
be part of the trailer.
The following message is displayed:
Warning: Second Disc
CDROM Read Error
Some Audio Missing
[Enter] Continue
Press ENTER to Continue the
loading process. Press ◄ to Abort
the loading process. Both drives will
eject.
If you press ENTER to accept the data, there will probably be some data missing, in which case the
system will drop the DTS audio and switch to the optical audio source.
If you press ◄ to Abort the loading process, both drives will eject and the data that was already copied
will be deleted from the hard disc.
If your theater receives more than one copy of the film (with DTS CD-ROMs), you may
solve this problem by substituting the faulty disc with a good disc from another copy.
1.2.6. Splice in the DTS Logo Trailer Film
Add the DTS trailer (logo) film to the head of the DTS encoded movie. Splice it in at about six frames
after fade-out (where it should still have timecode) and add it directly to the first frame of the movie with
timecode.
1.2.7. Running a Show
The Timecode Reader reads the serial number of the film and triggers the XD10 to play the soundtrack
that matches that serial number. If Subtitling and/or Access options (Narration, Rear Window
Captioning) have been set up for this film, they will also begin to play automatically.
When the XD10 system is powered on and the display shows READY, the XD10 is ready for a show
start.
If the READY indicator does not display within 2 minutes, power off, wait three seconds,
and power the unit on again. If the READY indicator still does not display within 2 minutes,
power off the unit and contact DTS technical support.
When the film reaches the Timecode Reader head, the green light on the head will light and the XD10
front panel Timecode LED will turn on. A second later, the blue DTS Playback LED on the XD10 front
panel will light and the DTS digital soundtrack will start playing.
1.2.8. Changeover
When two projectors are used, XD10 will automatically make a sound changeover when the first frame of
the picture arrives at the aperture plate on the upcoming projector. DTS digital sound changes
independently from the projector’s douser position. Adjustment of the roll down on the upcoming
projector may be necessary to keep the changeover “seamless”. See the topic Guide for a Seamless
Changeover in chapter 5, XD10 Maintenance and Troubleshooting.
1.2.9. Film Breaks and Edits
The XD10 will automatically track any length of edit. A 30 millisecond cross fade makes the edit
transparent. After a film break, make sure the cinema processor is in DTS digital format.
Operational Overview

Version 1.0
1.3. Routine Maintenance
Everyday – Use compressed air to blow off the Timecode Reader’s optics (lens) to remove dust.
Every 6 months (or as needed) – Using a DVD cleaning disc, the DVD drives should be cleaned.
Additional maintenance procedures, as well as troubleshooting advice, can be found in chapter 5 XD10
Maintenance and Troubleshooting.
1.4. After the Show
Feature discs
After the feature has been loaded into the XD10, replace the discs into their cases and place back into the
correct film cans.
Trailer discs
These are sent out by DTS and do not have to be returned after use.

DTS-6D Emulation
This mode is intended to allow direct replacement of a DTS 6D with an XD10, without
altering the 6D’s unique end-of-show behavior.
In this mode, the XD10 plays soundtrack audio in the DTS format. When the soundtrack
reaches the last 2 minutes of the last reel, if it falls out1 of digital mode, the XD10 switches to
nonsync format. (Timing is determined by identifying the last reel in the audio file header,
then subtracting 2 minutes from the end of the file – as determined by file size.)
AutoSwitch (Optical Formats)
In this mode, the XD10 switches to DTS format only if it is currently in one of the optical
formats (Mono, A or SR). This allows the possibility of an alternate external format to be
used without being overridden by the XD10.
1 It “falls out” of DTS mode if there is not timecode or no audio to play.

1.10. Language Management for the XD10
In selected theaters there may be a requirement to play different dubbed soundtrack versions for the same
film. A theater may also desire to change versions throughout the day.
In the XD10, multiple versions of a film may be copied onto the hard drive. Since all of the versions are
assigned the same serial number, there needs to be additional information given to the XD10 to select
which version should be played.
In order for XD10 to accurately identify the languages on the disc, a language identification is added to
the audio file header. This ID is an enumerated value. The XD10 has a table that relates the enumerated
value to the text description of the language. See Appendix D, Language Management.
1.10.1.
Trailer Considerations
The language version must be set to the language of the trailer files, or they will not play.
“Last installed” means the last audio file installed for that serial number and reel number combination.
There is not really a last installed language because you can install three different shows with different
languages and they will all play under “Last Installed”. The same is true if language versions is disabled.
If you installed the same show with three different languages, then only the last one loaded will play
under “Last Installed”. This also is true if language versions is disabled.
1.10.2.
Language Versions Enable
In most cases, the XD10 is installed at a location where multiple
languages will NOT be used. In that case the Language Versions
option should be disabled. When disabled, all other language
version menu options and features are turned off, and the XD10
will not store multiple versions of the any feature. The last
language version installed will overwrite any previous version.

XD10 Digital Playback System, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
2.3.1. DTS XD10 Interaction with Other Cinema Processors
In general, the XD10 is not compatible with older cinema processors (manufactured 1993 and
earlier) unless the processors have been modified.
See Appendix B for interconnect and cable diagrams.
2.3.1.1. Dolby CP200 Operation
When the DTS XD10 switches to digital, the normal signal paths are interrupted, and DTS signals are
inserted just prior to the Dolby EQ cards, in effect taking over the cinema processor.
CP200: Program the automation optical default format to either “04” A-TYPE or “05” SR –
whichever the film requires.
When the DTS XD10 switches out of digital, the cinema processor is released and reverts to the format
previously selected.
Unless modified, these cinema processors do not have a subwoofer input. In this case, DTS inserts the
subwoofer signal post-fader; the fader or mute will not affect the subwoofer level.
2.3.1.2. Dolby CP45, CP55, CP65, CP500, CP650, UltraStereo JS Series, and SMART
Operation
The DTS XD10 will automatically pulse the audio processor to the digital format when it starts to play a
digital sound track. Whenever the XD10 drops out of digital, a pulse will be sent to switch the audio
processor back to optical format.
The DTS-XD10 will only pulse the audio processor into digital format when it first switches to digital.
Set the automation/cues to disallow audio format change once the DTS has switched into digital (for
example, when the show is re-started after a film break).
CP500: Must have the Cat. 685 (analog input card) installed. DTS is normally accessed through
Format 11.
SMART: Mod VI and VII uses the DTS interface cable E709.
For other SMART cinema processors, contact Smart directly at (800) 45-SMART or
+1.770.449.6698.
2.3.1.3. Dolby DA10 / 20 SR-D™ System
The DTS XD10 can be connected to the Dolby SR-D™ system without affecting performance of the
Dolby system. The DA20 connects to the appropriate XD10 breakout board. When the XD10 is off, the
DA10/20 output is routed through the breakout board. When the XD10 system is on and playing in
digital, the DA10/20 connection (to the cinema processor) is switched out on the breakout card and the
DTS digital sound track is given to the cinema processor. The SR-D™ system should be powered down
when playing DTS.
2.3.1.4. Sony SDDS™
The DTS XD10 system does not connect to, and has no affect on, the DFP-D2000 and DFP-D2500. It
does connect to the DFP-D3000 and could be connected to a DCP1000. See the cable and interface
drawings in Appendix B.

XD10 Digital Playback System, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
2.4. Installation Procedures
Refer to the Installation Checklist on page ix near the front of this manual.
The DTS system consists of two major components: c DTS Timecode Reader Head and d DTS XD10
Cinema Media Player. The following is a generic procedure intended to supplement the processor
installation instructions for your specific manufacturer's system. Wiring diagrams are located in
Appendix B Installation Diagrams.
2.4.1. Preliminary Inspection
Before installing the DTS XD10, we recommend you take a complete inventory of system components to
minimize problems or questions during installation. Additionally, save all packing materials until
installation is complete in the unlikely event that factory return of parts is required.
2.4.2. Timecode Reader Head Installation
The Timecode Reader Head is designed to be mounted onto most projectors with a single mounting
bracket.
1. 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 Appendix B).
If both 35mm and 70mm reader heads are to be used on the same bracket, add spacer breakaway
plates to the readers. See DTS 35mm and 70mm Readers, Switchable, Using the Same Bracket, in
Appendix B.
2. Install the Timecode Reader Head onto the DTS mounting bracket and bolt into place with supplied
hardware.
3. Reinstall the reel arm on the top bolt pattern of the DTS mounting bracket.
4. Align the DTS mounting bracket and the reel arm. Align film along the path from the reel arm,
through the mounted DTS Timecode Reader Head, to the projector.
Important: The DTS timecode reader MUST have a straight film path (no angles or twists)
and at least a small amount of tension. Use the auxiliary flanged roller on the timecode
reader head to avoid film “walk out” and to stabilize the film. (See Installation Procedure –
Timecode Reader Head Auxiliary Roller in Appendix B of this manual.) Additional guide
rollers may be added to ensure proper film tension – this is most critical on platter systems.
5. Connect the 9-pin timecode cable and route to the sound processor rack for interconnect with the
XD10 player rear panel Timecode connector.
2.4.2.1. Two projector (change-over) theaters
Be sure to place each reader head at the same place on the projectors. In order for the
movie to play in sync, offset values must be the same for each projector.
2.4.3. DTS XD10 Player Installation
2.4.3.1. Rack Mounting and Connection
The DTS XD10 player is designed to integrate into your existing theater sound system, without affecting
normal theater operation. All interconnects are standalone, and most systems require no cuts or jumpers.
The XD10 requires 3U of standard rack space (5 1/4 x 15 x 19 inches) for proper mounting. Select a
space in the sound rack within three feet of the cinema processor to which you are connecting.
1. Bolt the XD10 into the selected rack space.
2. Check that the XD10 front panel power switch is in the OFF position.
3. Connect the supplied power cable between the XD10 and your power source.
Installation

XD10 Digital Playback System, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
Caution: Because the XD10, like any other computer-based system, can be damaged by
power line surges, we recommend using a computer-grade surge/spike suppresser.
4. Connect the analog and logic cables/cards to your cinema sound processor. (See Appendix B for
installation diagrams – including installation into sound racks containing digital sound systems from
Dolby and/or Sony.)
If installing to a SMART cinema processor, contact SMART directly at (800) 45-SMART.
DTS does offer SMART interface cables: for MODVI or VII use DTS #E709.
2.4.3.2. Rack Mount Considerations
If this product is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the following items must be considered.
•
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.
•
Ensure adequate airflow for cooling purposes on all sides of rack-mounted equipment.
Ventilation fans and louvers must not be blocked.
•
Check nameplate ratings to ensure there is no overloading of supply circuits that could have
an effect on over-current protection and supply wiring.
•
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.
•
A quality surge/spike suppresser power strip is recommended to protect the unit.

3. Calibration and Setup
This chapter describes procedures for XD10 audio level adjustment, timecode reader sync adjustment,
sound performance verification and fail-safe operation verification.
3.1. Equipment Requirements
Complete checkout and adjustment of the DTS XD10 requires, as a mininum, a good quality true RMS
multimeter, an SPL meter, and the XD10’s built-in test tones.
Note: Lower quality voltmeters tend to become inaccurate at higher frequencies, such as
the 1 kHz tone used for DTS playback calibration, and will result in incorrect calibration.
To verify or adjust the built-in audio setup tones, a DTS E313-00 output test board will be needed (obtain
from DTS).
Note: A complete “B-Chain” of the cinema processor (CP), including Room EQ, must be
adjusted prior to calibration of the XD10.
3.2. Measuring and Adjusting XD10 Audio Levels
Channel setup tests and tones are pre-recorded onto the system hard drive. To use them, refer to the menu
section for setting levels (Main menu | System Setup | Audio Setup | Level Adjustment).
The audio playback level of the XD10’s built-in 1kHz test tone has been preset at 300mV RMS
when the output is set to 0.0 dB. The reason it’s set to 300 mV is that most cinema processors use this
as their reference level. Consult the manual for your CP to determine the input buss level, or contact the
manufacturer. Use the procedure below to verify that the XD10 is set to the correct output level or to
make any necessary changes.
To verify or adjust the output level of each channel, follow this procedure.
The XD10 must be ON. Refer to chapter 1, topic Level Adjustment, for details.
1. Connect the XD10 Analog Out cable from the XD10 to the DTS E313 test board.
2. Connect your multimeter’s test leads to the E313.
3. Select Reference Tone from the Level Adjustment menu (Main menu | System Setup | Audio Setup |
Level Adjustment). Press ENTER.
An adjustment screen for the first channel will display. The 1 kHz Reference Tone will begin to play
on all channels and continue to play as you cycle through the adjustment screen for each channel.
Adjust level for
Ch 1 (Left)
[ +00.0 dB ]
Tone on all channels
Press ► or ENTER to advance to
the next channel. Press ▲ or ▼ to
change level setting.
4. Set the multimeter for AC input at an appropriate range to measure a 300 mV signal. Use the
multimeter to check the output level for each channel on the E313 board.
If the output is 300 mV (± 10), press ► or ENTER to move on to the next channel.
If the output is NOT correct, or if your cinema processor requires an output level other than 300 mV,
use the ▲ or ▼ buttons to adjust the level.
5. When finished, remove the E313 tester board (and store it for future use). Reconnect the audio cable
from the XD10 to the CP.

3.2.1. Verifying Audio Levels
The pink noise tests that are built into the XD10 are used only to make A-B comparisons to an alternate
sound source such as magnetic sound track or analog sound.
Be aware that some external pink noise generator cards used on some cinema processors
(such as CP65 and CP55, that do not have internal pink noise generators) may have a level
discrepancy of as much as 1.5dB. For this reason the 1kHz test tone is used for setting the
XD10 audio output levels.
The XD10 must be ON. Refer to chapter 1, topic Level Adjustment, for details.
1. Select Pink Noise from the Level Adjustment menu (Main menu | System Setup | Audio Setup | Level
Adjustment). Press ENTER.
An adjustment screen for the first channel will display. The XD10 will begin playing Pink Noise and
the blue DTS Playback LED will light. The XD10 should automatically pulse the CP to the format
used by DTS. The Pink Noise will begin playing on Ch-1 (Left) and will switch to the selected
channel as you cycle through the channels.
Adjust level for
Ch 1 (Left)
[ +00.0 dB ]
Pink Noise on Ch 1
Press ► or ENTER to advance to
the next channel. Press ▲ or ▼ to
change level setting.
2. Open the screen curtains, set the CP level to reference (fader setting ‘7’ for most cases), go into the
theater, and take SPL readings in the rear third and just off-center of the room. All amplifiers should
be powered on and all speakers should be un-muted.
Caution: Do NOT simply point the SPL meter out of the porthole window. This will not give
you accurate SPL readings.
3. You may double-check the SPL settings using the table below. If you find a level discrepancy, first
go back and verify the CP “B-chain” setup. Remember, the XD10 follows the CP and any level or
EQ adjustment. Information on setting all appropriate levels is provided on the XD10 display. The
XD10 levels may be readjusted to achieve the levels indicated in the table below.
Caution: Pink Noise tests assume the CP levels are correct. If the CP levels are NOT correct,
then adjusting the XD10 levels using the Pink Noise will mask a misalignment of the CP.
Then if you later realign the CP properly, the XD10 levels will be wrong. To avoid this
potential problem, be sure to align the CP’s B-chain first (set levels and adjust EQ).

3.2.2. A Note about DTS Subwoofer Output
The XD10 subwoofer output level ranges from 20Hz to 120Hz (Coherent Acoustics format), up to 27dB
above reference (85dB).
Check your subwoofer’s specifications to avoid damage to the speaker.
If a subwoofer is driven below its cutoff frequency, its driver(s) may become unloaded. When unloaded,
the voice coil can travel outside of the magnet’s gap, overheating and/or causing mechanical damage to
the speaker. A high pass filter should be installed on speakers with high cutoff frequencies. Contact your
speaker manufacturer for more information.
3.2.3. Mono Surround
The mono surround output is a mix of the left and right surround signals. This “mono” signal is available
ONLY on the mono surround output pin (pin 21) on the XD10's ANALOG OUT (CH 1-10) connector.
1. In theaters with only mono surrounds, select the left surround pink noise and adjust for 76 dBC
SPL in the theater. Note the level displayed on the XD10 screen.
2. Next, select right surround pink noise and adjust the output to the SAME level that the left
surround was adjusted to. The level in the theater should be the same, 76 dBC SPL, as when
playing back pink noise on the left surround channel.
Any future adjustment of the surround levels should be made to both the left and right surrounds equally
to maintain the correct balance of the original stereo surround mix.
3.3. Timecode Reader Sync Adjustment
This adjustment is easily performed using the numbered leader in front of the DTS Demo Reel. (The
demo reel is supplied with the DTS Technician’s Kit, which can be purchased from any DTS dealer.) See
the steps (below on this page).
Additional drawings can be viewed in Appendix B (Installation Diagrams) of this manual.
If you do not have a demo reel, the delay can be calculated by counting the number of picture frames
from the DTS reader head red LED (lens) to the projector’s picture (“film”) aperture. Multiply the result
by 1.25 and subtract 1. Round the resulting number to the closest ¼ (0.25). Set the OFFSET value in the
XD10 System Setup | TC RDR Offset menu to this number.
Example:
27 frames x 1.25 = 33.75
33.75 - 1 = 32.75
Set the OFFSET to 32.75
Remember: When using the counting frames method, frames are counted from the timecode
reader lens to the picture aperture. And the first frame, the frame at the lens, is counted as
zero (0) – NOT as 1.

GREEN LED - TIMECODE INDICATOR
Figure 3-1. Timecode Reader Head, Threading
Procedure using Demo Reel
The Demo Reel has a specially printed leader for setting the timecode head offset.
1. Using the numbered leader, put the start mark 00 at the reader’s lens (red LED) and thread the film
through the projector as normal.
2. After threading, look at the film and read the number at the projector’s sound head. This is the
OFFSET value and that number should be entered into the XD10 Setup | Timecode Offset menu.
Important: Make the same size film loops inside the projector when measuring offset as
when running a movie. Failure to do so will result in improper sync when the movie runs in
DTS Digital mode. For two-projector houses, the reader at each projector must have the
same OFFSET value (must have equal distance from the aperture), since there is only one
setting for the system (not two).
3.4. Verifying Operation
3.4.1. Verify Sound Performance
3. Thread the DTS Demo reel through the projector and DTS reader. Be sure the XD10 is fully
booted and ready to play.
4. Start the projector. Verify the DTS-XD10 automatically switches the cinema processor to the
(DTS) Digital format. Verify sound is heard in the monitor speaker and pop open the porthole (if
possible) to verify sound is heard in the auditorium.
5. While still in the booth, verify the XD10 DTS Playback LED (blue) is lighted and that the LCD
screen displays the film title, Serial number, Reel number, and running timecode.
Figure 3-2. XD10 LCD screen (typical)
6. Go into the theater while the Demo reel is playing. Verify sound is in-sync, sounds well balanced
and has overall good digital sound quality.

If levels sound unbalanced, check the cinema processor’s output levels. Then be sure that the
XD10 output of 300mV RMS on all channels matches the input reference level of your cinema
processor.
The XD10 MUST match the cinema processor’s input reference level. (The input reference
level of your cinema processor should be indicated in its manual or consult the manufacturer.)
7. If a two-projector theater, repeat this procedure for Projector 2.
3.4.2. Check Automatic Fail-Safe (Default) Operation
This procedure will verify that, should the DTS timecode reader fail for any reason, the system
will automatically switch to optical sound format.
1. While the demo film is running, block the timecode at the reader or unplug the 9-pin connector at
the reader.
To block the timecode reader, insert a business card between the film and the lens of the timecode
reader head and keep it there for at least six seconds.
2. Verify that after 4 to 5 seconds of not seeing timecode, the DTS-XD10 switches to the SR optical
sound format.
There should not be a dramatic sound level difference when the cinema processor switches from
digital to analog during dialogue scenes.
If there is a dramatic difference, check the cinema processor’s levels (A- and B-chains) first and
then test again.
Remember, the XD10 output level must match the cinema processor’s input reference level.
3. Now, restore timecode and XD10 should automatically switch the cinema processor to the digital
format after about two seconds.
4. If a two-projector theater, repeat this procedure for Projector 2.

5. XD10 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
5.1. Routine Maintenance
Use compressed air to blow off the Timecode Reader’s optics (lens) once every day to remove dust.
Using a DVD cleaning disc, the DVD drives should be cleaned every six months, or as needed.
The Timecode Reader head’s voltage should be checked and recalibrated after three months service, and
then every six months thereafter. For details, see DTS Technical Note Reader Head LED Voltage
Calibration, TN-E550. (TN-E550 is included in this manual, in Appendix H Technical Notes.) You may
obtain a copy from DTS Cinema Technical Support via e-mail at [email protected].
5.2. XD10 Troubleshooting Tips
It’s always a good idea to stand in the theater and listen to the first few minutes of the movie. Listen to
the sound level and general quality of the sound. The sound track should be in sync with the picture (wait
for a dialogue scene) and played at a comfortable level. Even though not every scene will have surround
material, do your best to listen for the surround speakers. Most opening musical sequences contain
surround information. To adjust the overall sound level in the theater, adjust the main fader on the
cinema processor.
Be sure the soundtrack was loaded for the film you are playing. Feel free to contact DTS
Post Production for help.
5.2.1. I have a DTS print but I don’t have discs
Contact your film distributor and ask for the disc(s). Remember a film that runs less than 90 minutes will
have only one movie disc – which should also be labeled “one disc only”. Movies running over 90

XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
minutes will have two discs. Occasionally, longer movies will have additional discs and special show
instructions. Also check the hard drive to see if the movie soundtrack has been previously loaded.
5.2.2. Film not in sync or doesn’t sound right
Turn off the DTS-XD10 unit. Listen and verify that the movie is playing in optical format. Let the film
finish playing in optical. Do not attempt to remedy these problems while playing in DTS. The theater
technician should perform a full DTS quality check. (See chapter 3, Calibration and Setup, for details.)
5.2.3. Volume too loud
Turn down the fader pot on the cinema processor. Do not adjust the DTS-XD10 audio level from the
menu controls. If sound level needs adjustment after switching to digital, contact your theater technician.
5.2.4. DTS-XD10 won’t switch into digital sound
Verify that movie information is loaded on to the hard drive in the DTS-XD10 unit. If the film sound is
not loaded into the hard drive, you must obtain the right discs and load them before you can play in the
digital format. Verify that the movie discs match the movie.
If the unit does not switch to digital, verify that the green LED on the projector timecode reader head is
glowing brightly and steadily while the movie is running. If the LED is dark, check to make sure that the
film is threaded correctly through the DTS Timecode Reader and that the film has a timecode strip
(located between picture and analog sound tracks). If no timecode (dots & dashes) strip is seen, call the
film distributor and request a DTS print.
5.2.5. DTS XD10 switches out of DTS Digital
If the DTS-XD10 does not see timecode for four seconds, the sound should automatically default to
optical. Verify that the green LED on the DTS Timecode Reader head is glowing brightly and steadily
while the film is running.
If the TIMECODE LED on the DTS-XD10 or reader head is blinking, gently squeeze the film between
two fingers as it exits the reader head. Do the same at the entrance of the reader. If the LED stops blinking
and maintains a steady glow, this indicates that you need to add more tension. Tension is added by
repositioning the auxiliary flanged roller as close as possible to the largest roller so that it has maximum
contact with the film. You may also add an additional roller to the output of the reader. Verify that all
the gears in the projector are in good condition.
Use compressed air to blow off the lens on the reader head, but never adjust the lens.
Be sure your reader head is adjusted to 4 VDC. (See TN-E550 in Appendix H. )
Attach the grounding jumper on the timecode cable to the projector. This is most easily accomplished by
attaching the screw that secures the timecode cable to the reader head. Verify with an ohmmeter that the
reader’s housing is electrically connected to the projector housing.
If the drop-out repeatedly occurs at the same place(s) in the movie, replace the reel(s).
Do not put any sound format cues on film within timecode. Do not use leader with timecode
elsewhere as it will cause a false start on the player.
As a last resort, force the unit to play in optical mode. Turn off the DTS XD10 and verify that the cinema
processor switches to optical. If it does not, adjust manually. Contact your DTS Theater Technician.
5.2.6. What do I do with the discs when the movie has finished its run?
Simply return the movie discs with the film to the depot. Put the discs in the disc carrier and place it into
the film can.

5.3. Guide For A Seamless Change-Over
Occasionally, when running a DTS movie with dual projectors, you may come across situations when the
picture and sound are not changing in unison during a change over. This is due to the fact that as soon as
the first frame of action reaches the picture aperture on the incoming projector, the DTS digital sound will
change over to that reel. DTS digital sound changes independent of the projector’s douser position.
Change over anomalies are most evident on movies that have very tight editing / scene change tolerances
from one reel’s end to the next reel’s start.
When this occurs, perform one of the adjustment procedures below.
5.3.1. Sound changes before picture
When threading the incoming projector, roll down the film to a greater number of feet. If you normally
thread to “8”, try threading to “9” or “10”. Keep adjusting the roll down setting until the picture changes
with the sound. Also, try hesitating a second before starting the incoming projector on the first cue.
5.3.2. Picture changes before sound
When threading the incoming projector, roll down the film to a lesser number of feet. If you normally
thread to “8”, try threading to “7” or “6”. Keep adjusting the roll down setting until the picture changes
with the sound. Be sure to hesitate opening the douser on the incoming projector (on the second cue) until
the last word on the outgoing reel is heard on screen.
5.3.3. Determining roll-down
Adjusting the roll down setting is a judgment call. Base it on the time delay of picture vs. sound. One
second of delay equates to 24 frames, or 1.5 feet.

5.4. Inside the DTS XD10
Refer to Figures 5-1 and 5-2 (pages 5-5 and 5-6) for location of components within the XD10 chassis.
5.4.1. Timecode Board
The Timecode board (E622) contains the timecode head offset information and these connectors:
•
the serial connection to the Front Panel containing the LCD display and 7 system status LEDs
•
a 9-pin timecode cable output D-type connector
•
two auxiliary audio outputs, RCA-type connectors
•
a 7 pin Phoenix connector and DB25F for Cinema automation control
The OFFSET is set in the software according to the timecode reader location. This setting is different
depending on type of projector or location of the timecode reader. See Timecode Reader Sync
Adjustment, in chapter 3, for instructions to determine the OFFSET setting.
The status LEDs on the front panel include:

A circuit breaker protects the power going to the Timecode Reader head (through the 9-pin connector)
against short circuits. The breaker is self-resetting so replacement is unnecessary.
The 9-pin connector (accessed on the DTS-XD10 rear panel) is used to connect the timecode cable to the
timecode reader on the projector.
5.4.2. Power Supply
This unit supplies power to the DTS-XD10 Player. This supply is switchable between 110 VAC and 220
VAC and adjusts automatically.
The cooling fan in the power supply should be rotating when power is applied.
To prevent dirt from being pulled into the DVD/CD-ROM drives, do not block the ventilation
holes at the side of the DTS-XD10 player.
5.4.3. DVD/CD-ROM Drives
There are two DVD/CD-ROM drives in the DTS-XD10. The two are identical, except for the way
jumpers are installed. The top drive (A) is jumpered to be “master” and the bottom drive (B) is jumpered
to be “slave”.

DTS 35mm and 70mm Readers, Switchable, Using the Same
Bracket
If both 35mm and 70mm reader heads are to be used on the same bracket, add spacer breakaway plates to
the readers. They are added to allow quick changes between the two. Keep the plates attached to the
readers and maintain them as a set once the projector alignments are finished. See below.
1. Start by mounting the 70mm reader (with its breakaway plate attached) to the bracket.
2. Use 70mm film to align the reader. Once aligned, tighten bracket screws.
3. Loosen the thumbscrew on the breakaway plate so that the 70mm reader detaches from the
bracket.
4. Next, attach the 35mm reader (with its breakaway plate attached) to the bracket.
5. Use 35mm film to verify the alignment path is correct -- no corrections should be necessary.
The goal is to have one alignment for both readers so that no projector adjustments are needed
when the readers are exchanged.

Appendix F. Video Option Installation
F.1. XD10 Video Option
The XD10 Video Option enables the XD10 to output digital video to a digital projector. Typical uses
may include theatrical pre-show material or special venue video presentations.
F.1.1. Field Installation for Type 1 Video Card
Required Components
1. DTS License for use of video option (a self-loading file on CD-ROM)
2. Video card
3. “Overlay” cable – provided with video card
4. Audio cable – short RCA Male to RCA Male provided with video card
5. Video cable to projector
At the XD10 end this must be 15 pin male cable; the projector end can be either 15 pin (typically
male), 3 BNC (RGB) or 5 BNC (RGBHV).
6. Projector (or monitor for test purposes)
7. If you are also using CSS (Cinema Subtitling) feature, extra hardware is required:
a. Video splitter (ATEN VS92A is available from DTS) with 12 VDC transformer
b. Extra Video cable (15pin VGA Male to female, 6 ft. length) (available from DTS)
F.1.1.1. Hardware Installation Procedure
1. Power down and unplug the XD10.
Caution: the XD10 front panel on/off switch does not remove power from the unit (it is a
standby mode switch). The unit still has power to the PCI slots when this switch is OFF.
2. Remove XD10 cover.

Figure F-1. XD10, Cover Removed
3. Remove the metal cover over the PCI slot that is second from the left side of the unit (Figure F-1,
above). Keep the screw.
4. Discharge static by touching the XD10 chassis
5. Insert the video card in PCI slot. Make sure the card is firmly seated into the slot. Reinstall the
screw.
6. Depending on whether you are using the CSS option:
a. If NOT using CSS, connect the “Projector Video” socket on the back of the XD10 to the 15
pin end of the “overlay cable”.
b. If using CSS, connect the “Projector Video” on the XD10 to “video in” on the splitter using
the extra video cable (item 8.b under Required Components, previous page). Then install the
15 pin end of the “overlay cable” into the “video 1” output of the splitter. CSS connects to
“video 2” output of the splitter. The splitter must be powered by the 12 VDC transformer
(wall adapter) that is supplied.
c. In either case, connect the small end of the “overlay cable” to the “VGA IN” on the bottom of
the video card, being especially careful to ensure a good connection.
7. Connect the audio cable from the video card’s “digital out” to the input marked “VID” on the 10ch Playback card in PCI 3 (the card nearest the left side in Figure F-1, above).

8. Connect the projector to the “VGA out” output of the video card (or use a monitor for test
purposes).
9. Reinstall the XD10 cover.
10. Connect the XD10 to the cinema processor.
11. Plug in the unit
12. Reinstall the unit in the rack.
F.1.2. Enable / Test Procedure
1. Power up the projector (or monitor) and adjust cinema processor levels to low.
2. Power up the unit. You should see computer text on the projector as it boots. (If not, see Debug
Procedure, below.)
3. Enable the video feature by installing the license CD in the XD10 DVD drive.
4. The unit will boot up into “test mode” since no other video has yet been loaded.
5. Hit ENTER to access menus. Test hardware by going to Playback | Video | Play Menu | Play.
There is a test clip already on the hard drive, provided with the unit. Wait for the software to load
before the test clip begins playing. You should see the “DTS Playback” and “VIDEO” LEDs are
lighted, indicating that the unit is playing video. At that point you should see video on your
projector or monitor, and hear audio through the Cinema Processor.
F.1.3. Debug Procedure
Symptom
Action
No video (either computer text during boot
or video while LEDs are lighted)
Power off the unit and ensure that the video cable into the “VGA IN “
on the video card is connected securely. The unit must be rebooted
(the connection must be good when the XD10 boots up).
F.1.4. Configuration Procedure
1. In the System Setup | Video Setup | Set Application menu, choose Common Height or Common
Width.
2. Calibrate the video overlay by playing the test file. Enter test mode by System Setup | Video
Setup then choose Set Test | Normal.
a. Go to System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video | Cal Width and adjust width so that the right
edge of the motion video is aligned with the edge of the projector output.
b. Go to System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video | Cal Location and adjust location so the left
edge aligns with the left edge of the projector output.
c. Repeat steps (a) and (b) until the image aligns horizontally.
3. Set the output resolution for best image quality.
Setting the XD10 output resolution to match the video projector’s native resolution (1024x768 or
1280x1024) gives the best results. In this case the projector should be set to “native” (or similar
term to indicate no scaling). On the XD10, go to System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video |
Resolution. After a change, some projectors need to be restarted in order to re-sync.
4. Adjust Brightness and Contrast from System Setup | Video Setup | Set Video menus.

Appendix G. Cinema Subtitling System (CSS) Option
The DTS Model DTS-CSP subtitle projector can be mounted in the projection booth or in the auditorium.
For most theaters, it will be in the projection booth. It is used to project subtitles that are supplied by the
XD10 software. The subtitle video is downloaded into the XD10 from a “show disc.” Then the operator
chooses the language desired for the subtitles, from the Playback | CSP Language menu, or
chooses Automation to automate the subtitles selection process. Once the film is started, the
correct subtitles are projected in sync with action on-screen.
Along with the DTS-CSP, there is a special external mask assembly DTS-EMA and its mounting
hardware.
•
The DTS-EMA consists of a bracket, douser, cooling fan, and adjustable magnetic trims. (See
parts lists in Appendix A.)
•
The mounting hardware consists of a mounting plate, shaft, and clamp. The mounting plate
attaches directly to a wall or ceiling, and the clamp attaches directly to the DTS-EMA. (See
parts lists in Appendix A.)

Subtitle Projector Installation
The subtitle projector installation consists of two pieces of hardware: c Projector (DTS-CSP),
d external mask assembly (DTS-EMA), which includes hardware for mounting to the projector booth
wall or ceiling. Most installations will occur in the projection booth. If no other alternative exists, the
projector may be installed in the auditorium.
Note: The DTS-CSP Subtitle Projector MUST be installed upside down.
When installing projector, ensure there is easy access for cleaning the lens and changing the
lamp.
An assistant is needed to help hold the projector when it is attached to the mount.
G.5.1. Installation Tools
Adjustable wrench
Various screwdrivers
16 mm socket wrench
Drill with ¼ inch (6.3 mm) bit
Hex driver 5/32 inch (13.1 mm)
PRECAUTIONS
It is the installer’s responsibility to evaluate the area selected for mounting the DTS-CSP projector.
Special care must be taken when mounting the projector to the wall. The correct fasteners and a wall
rated to support 25 lbs. (9 kg) must be chosen. The composition and strength of the wall must be
evaluated so that the proper fasteners are used. Adequate reinforcement should be added if the wall
is not strong enough. Consultation with a carpenter is highly recommended. Also, when not using
the DTS mount, consult a carpenter to construct appropriate mounting for the DTS-CSP.
To avoid overheating of the projector, adequate airspace is required. Six inches (15.24 cm) are
required on all sides (left, right, front, and rear) and 12 inches (30.98) is required above and below.
A second person is necessary to hold and support the projector in place during the tightening
procedure.
Failure to follow the procedure set forth in this manual will void the warranty, if any, provided by
DTS with respect to the DTS-CSP subtitling projector.
The installer shall be responsible for any injury or damage resulting from installer’s failure to follow
procedure set forth in the manual, and DTS shall have no responsibility what-so-ever for any injury
or damage resulting from installer’s failure to follow procedure set forth in this manual.
G.5.2. Installation Procedure
Use this procedure to install the subtitle projector into the projection booth.
1. Verify you have all hardware needed for the DTS-CSP installation.
•
One DTS-EMA mask/mount adapter and one DTS-CSP subtitle projector.
•
One bracket, wall mounting plate, and arm for mounting the CSP/EMA to the wall.
2. Assemble the bracket and arm to the DTS-EMA.
a. Connect the arm assembly to the DTS-EMA. Place mounting foot so that arm can pivot

To secure the EMA mounting system to a wall made of dry wall, sheet rock, gypsum, or
plaster, it is required to first mount a ¾ inch thick (19 mm) minimum plywood base
onto the wall, to provide solid support for the EMA mounting plate. The plywood base
shall be securely attached to the structural members (wood or steel supports) of the
wall. Then attach the EMA mounting plate to the plywood base.
Figure 6. Mark mounting plate location and screw hole locations.
d. Drill pilot holes at the markings for the fasteners. The drill bit must be smaller than the
diameter of the fastener used.
Figure 7. Drill pilot holes for mounting plate fasterners.
e. With four (4) proper fasteners, secure mounting plate to wall. (See figure 8.)
Fastener size should be larger than ¼ inch (6 mm) to maximum 5/16 inch (8 mm). Since the
type of fastener depends on the material used in the wall, DTS does not provide these
fasteners.
Caution: Over-tightening the fasteners can weaken the mounting surface,
damage the fasteners, and make the attachment less secure.

Regular Maintenance of the DTS-CSP System
Routine maintenance of the subtitle projector consists of keeping the lens free of dust and
inspecting the projector lamp.
The DTS-CSP subtitle projector lamp must be changed after 1400 hours of use. Failing to change
the lamp after 1400 of in-use hours may result in damage to the projector and is not covered by
warranty.
The XD10 CSS Lamp Fault red LED will flash, when 1400 in-use hours has been reached. The
same indicator will light continuously to indicate that the lamp has failed.
G.6.1. Routine Projector Lamp Maintenance
After every 100 hours of use
Warning: Wait for the projector lamp to cool, before inspecting and cleaning the lamp
module. A hot projector lamp can cause serious personal injury.
1. Vent screens on the module must be inspected. Any accumulated material (lint, dust, smoke
residue, etc.) must be carefully removed with a gentle vacuum cleaner or canned air and a soft
brush.
Note: If a large accumulation of dirt is observed, the inspection interval time should be
shortened with the objective of maintaining clean screens and vents.
2. Inspect the lamp bulb for any of these factors, and (if found) replace lamp:
•
bulging
•
white cloudy appearance
•
blackened bulb
•
bulbs with separated ceramic collars
3. The lamp module must be replaced after 1400 hours of use.
Caution: The lamp module must NOT be modified in any way. If the cover glass is missing,
removed or damaged, the unit will be damaged by excessive heat (and the warranty will be
void). Blocked or damaged lamp module screens can reduce lamp life or increase the
possibility of rupture containment failure.
G.6.2. Lamp Module Dust Filter Screen
After every 200-250 hours of use, in dirty environments
In dirty or dusty environments, the lamp module dust filter screen in the DTS-CSP projector can become
plugged, causing excessively high temperatures inside the lamp module. Excessively high temperatures
can cause premature lamp failure. Routine maintenance to remove dust and dirt from the filter screens
lowers the lamp operating temperature and lengthens lamp life. Clean the lamp module dust filter screen
every 200-250 hours when the projector is used in areas with high levels of airborne contaminants like
lint, dust or smoke. See TN-E538 in Appendix H of this manual.
G.6.3. Projector Lens Cleaning
The projection lens should be inspected regularly and cleaned by the approved cleaning method (soft nonabrasive cloth and mild glass cleaner). If the projector will not used for a long period, cover lens with
lens cap.
1. Apply a non-abrasive camera lens cleaner solution to a clean, soft, dry cloth.
Cinema Subtitling (CSS) Option
G-17
Document #: 9301E692001.0
XD10 Cinema Media Player, Installation and Operating Guide
Version 1.0
Caution: Use cleaner sparingly – do not use too much. Do not apply cleaner directly to the
lens (instead, apply to the cloth). Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents or other harsh
chemicals that may scratch the lens.
2. Lightly wipe the cleaning cloth over the lens in a circular motion.
3. Verify the focus and zoom adjustments after cleaning is finished.
G.7.
Replacing the Lamp Module
Warning: To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 30 minutes before you open
the lamp module door. Never extract the lamp module while the projector is operating.
Warning: To avoid eye injury, do not look directly into the projected light beam.
The lamp hour counter in the CSP Lamp Status menu displays the number of hours the lamp has been in
use. Change the lamp when the brightness is no longer acceptable or after 1400 hours. The XD10 front
panel features a CSP Lamp Fault indicator that will flash (red) when the lamp needs replacing. The
indicator will light continuously (not flashing) in case of lamp failure.
The lamp must be changed at 1400 hours and the lamp hour counter must be reset every time the lamp
module is changed. Contact DTS to order a new lamp module. See “Replacement Parts List” in this
section.
Tool Required: 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) flat blade screwdriver
1. Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.

Adjust R16 trim pot (on Rev. E and higher D424 boards) for 4 volts DC on the multimeter. If you cannot
achieve the correct voltage, the LED may be damaged or aged. Older version D424 boards may not
have a trim pot. In that case, if the voltage is not between 3.5 and 4.5 volts DC, then you must do a
repair-exchange on the reader. Contact your local DTS dealer.
Adjust trim pot until
the volt meter reads
4 volts DC
On older versions of D424 boards that have a trim pot but no test points, carefully connect your meter
as shown below and measure the voltage. Adjust trim pot for 4 volts DC on a multimeter.

Maintenance to Prevent Premature DTS-CSP Lamp Failure
In dirty or dusty environments, the lamp module dust filter screen in the DTS-CSP projector can become
plugged, causing excessively high temperatures inside the lamp module. Excessively high temperatures
can cause premature lamp failure. Routine maintenance to remove dust and dirt from the filter screens
lowers the lamp operating temperature and lengthens lamp life. As depicted below, clean the lamp
module dust filter screen every 200-250 hours when the projector is used in areas with high levels of
airborne contaminants like lint, dust or smoke.
Procedure for cleaning the lamp module dust filter screen
1. First, be sure the projector is cool. Then, remove the lamp door and lamp module.

2. After removing the lamp module, examine the condition of the dust filter screen. The screen
is in the front part of the lamp module. Dirt and dust accumulation on the screen must be
removed.
3. Use a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol to lightly wipe the screen. After you’ve wiped
the screen, use canned air to blow away remaining contaminants.
