3. Hardware Installation & Setup
As shown in Figure 5, take note of the positions of the HD-SDI connectors & the cables
connected to the Media Block. The connector cables must be crossed, to minimize bending of the
cables.
3.2 Insert the SR-1000 Media Block into the Metal Chassis
Insert the SR-1000 Media Block into the metal chassis. While doing this, it is essential to align the
Media Block properly against the side railings of the metal chassis, as highlighted in Figure 8.
Make sure the PCI-e connector on the Media Block is inserted to the PCI-e connector at the rear
of the chassis. The SR-1000 Media Block faceplate should be flush with the front panel of the
chassis, once properly inserted.

3. Hardware Installation & Setup
3.3 Connecting the SR-1000 with the Projector
The SR-1000 Media Block should be connected to the Projector’s link decryptor board using HD-
SDI cables. Take note of the following connections:
•Connect 'SDI-OUT1' from the Media Block to input 'A' on the Link Decryptor
•Connect 'SDI-OUT2' from the Media Block to input 'B' on the Link Decryptor
A network connection is required from either the Media Block’s ETH1 or ETH2 to the Projector’s
network port. Connect a network cable between the Media Block Ethernet port (ETH1 or ETH2) to
the Projector. Configure the ETH1/ETH2 IP address from the WebUI interface under System >>
Network Configuration.
