Installing the 2K
Foreword
This document provides information necessary for installing the da Vinci 2K color
enhancement system. It covers information common to all 2K installations with
emphasis on specific telecines including the Cintel URSA, C-Reality and the Thomson
Spirit Datacine. Information covering installation of other types of telecines including
Sony is provided in companion publications.
Basic Connections
FUNDAMENTAL AC POWER CONSIDERATIONS
Reliable operation of any computer requires continuous power. Because power problems
are the most common cause of data loss, use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
with all 2K systems is recommended. Interruption of power even for an instant can be
expensive in terms of lost work, and may cause unpredictable results in video information
processing. Power problems that are sometimes present on commercially supplied power
mains may not even be noticed. An uninterruptible power for the 2K is suggested to
assure reliable video and data output. AC power line conditioning using a quality UPS is
required for error free Linux PC Workstation operation during power sags, spikes, surges
and blackouts. Appendix A lists suitable UPS equipment. In the event of power failure,
the UPS will keep the Linux PC Workstation and Monitor running long enough to save
all data and provide time for an orderly system shut down. Equipment not protected by a
UPS should at least have surge suppressers. See Appendix A for more details on overall
system power requirements.
PHYSICAL SETUP
The 2K Digital Color Enhancement System combines two groups of equipment: the
control system and the processing system. The control system is located at operator’s
position and is made up of the control panels and displays. It is usually remote from the
2K mainframe processing system. The control panels direct the operation of other
equipment such as record, playback VTR’s, and the telecine equipment. The 2K with the
da Vinci User Interface (DUI) consists of the following control system;
• Three control panels: the Soft Panel, Joyball Panel and Dedicated
Keyboard Panel (Figure 1) provide color correction and equipment
control.
• The Linux PC, computer graphic display monitor, keyboard and
mouse initialize the system. The Linux Workstation is the platform for
the control system and the da Vinci User Interface. See Appendix B.
• The 2K is equipped with TLC editing. If the optional TLC Assistant is
acquired, a TLC keyboard and monitor may be included.
Installing the 2K 3
The electrical connection of the control panels, the 2K mainframe, and the
record and playback equipment is shown in Appendix C.

SYSTEM INTERCONNECTIONS
Three keyboards and three control panels direct the operation of the 2K.
Refer to Appendix C for equipment connections and Appendix E for
equipment interconnection details. There could be a potential to have up
to 4 keyboards. One comes with the Workstation, the second is built-in to
4 Installing the 2K
AC line power must maintain proper earth ground. Particular attention must
be given to the AC power connection to assure that the safety ground is not
compromised. Two wire extension cords of two wire power strips should
not be used.
CAUTION: For continued protection against risk of fire, replace only with same
type and rating of fuse.
Machine Control
Machine control connections to the 2K vary somewhat between systems
depending on whether they are tape-to-tape only, telecine programmer
only, or full-featured Digital Picture Processing systems. The standard 2K
provides up to 15 serial control ports.
VTR
There are 15 serial ports available for VTR control. Some of these ports
may be used for telecine control as well. So the type of telecine you have
will determine the total number of free ports available for VTR use. One
port is also normally assigned to be a DDR for the Gallery Still Store. And
ports may also be used for noise reducer control and perhaps other
peripheral devices.
TELECINE
Telecine applications require a number of additional cables between the
telecine and the mainframe. See Appendix B for connection details.
These vary depending on the telecine model. The necessary cables are
supplied by da Vinci. Be sure to notify Customer Service if the standard
10 meter length will not be adequate for your installation. For more
details, please contact da Vinci Customer Service.
6 Installing the 2K
NOISE REDUCER
The noise reducer option provides scene-by-scene control of serial
controlled noise / grain reducers. It is possible to control up to 2 noise /
grain reducers simultaneously. Each noise / grain reducer (except
Thomson Scream) under 2K control will require one of the 15 available
serial ports. The following devices are currently supported: Accom
DIE125/125M, Philips / BTS / Thompson, MNR9, MNR10, VS4, and
Scream, Digital Vision DVNR500-422, DVNR1000-422 and DVNR1000-
4x4 utilizing B11 Protocol and DVNR1000-HD utilizing Protocol G and
G Protocol, Primal, and Teranex StarFilm.
GPI and GPOs.
A GPI (General Purpose Interface) system provides 16 fully
programmable normally open, normally closed, momentary, or pulsed
open-collector TTL switch outputs. There are 15 GPI TTL inputs. GPI is a
standard feature.
Miscellaneous
For Dual Sync mode editing with the internal TLC editor, a customer
provided 6HZ reference pulse must be connected to the GPI Input
connector on pin 10, ground on pin 25.
Installing the 2K 9
General Installation
POSITIONING THE EQUIPMENT
Begin installation by placing the equipment in its final position. This
includes rack-mounting the mainframe and Gallery PC and organizing the
various items on the operator’s desk. The mainframe and gallery PC are
normally mounted in the machine / equipment room near the telecine (if
present). The daVinci supplied 2K to telecine interconnect cables are 10
meters in length, so the mainframe should be close enough to the telecine
for 10 meter cables to reach. At the operators desk, you will have the
following: Linux PC with a keyboard and mouse and 17” LCD display, 3
2K control panels and a rack mountable power supply for the control
panels. The control panel power supply cables are approximately 5 meters
long. So it will need to be located within this distance from the control
panels. There is a power switch on the front of the supply, so it would be
convenient if the supply could be rack mounted in a location that allowed
access to the power switch and is within 5 meters of the control panels.
You may also want to have a keyboard, mouse and display for the Gallery
PC remoted to the operators desk (extending these is done by customer
provided equipment). The 2K keyboard control panel has a slide out
ASCII keyboard. This is normally used instead of the Linux attached
keyboard. So the Linux attached keyboard can be placed out of sight, if
desired (but needs to remain connected to the Linux PC at all times). The
2K joyball control panel has a trackball that can be used as a mouse, in
place of the mouse connected to the Linux keyboard. The choice of which
to use is user dependant. If you have the optional TLC Assistant
workstation, place it as well. It consists of a Linux PC with mouse and
custom TLC keyboard. It also requires a customer provided display that
supports a 1280x1024 resolution.
CONNECTING THE EQUIPMENT (See Appendix C for a detailed connection
drawing)
Frame and Panels Ethernet Connections
2-100’ CAT5 Ethernet cables are provided to connect the Linux PC to the
2K mainframe and the Gallery PC. Uniquely label these cables at each end
and run them between the Linux PC location and the mainframe / Gallery
PC location. At the Linux PC location, a Centrecom MR420TR multiport
micro hub/repeater is provided to facilitate the network connections
between the Linux PC and the mainframe and control panels. Connect one
of the 100’ CAT5 cables to port 2 of the MR420TR. The other end of this
cable will connect to the CAT5 port on the rear of the 2K mainframe
labeled “2K O2”. Connect port 1 of the MR420TR to the CAT5 network
connector on the Linux PC which is located in an add-on slot (not the built
in connector!).

Installation Checklist
There are no modifications necessary to any of the Telecines (Ursa,
ITK, C-Reality, Spirit, & Sony) to which the 2K interfaces.
Power on the Linux PC, let it boot, then the 2K panels, launch Nui to
Colorist Login page, then power mainframe.
The Mainframe boards are installed in the following manner:
16 Installing the 2K
Note that Input 2 is ONLY used with the Toolbox option, the Qualifier
Board goes in this place.
The Power Tier Boards are installed from the lower position towards
the top. Most labels in the field are NOT correct, they are labeled
Layer or Power Tier 1 – 4 starting from the top. Logical channels 1 &
2 are located on the highest Power Tier, 3 & 4 on the second highest
and so on.
Check the power LEDS on the Defocus Board or Defocus Bypass and
verify that voltages are intact. You can measure voltages on the
Defocus Bypass Board on the front edge of the board ONLY, not on
the Defocus Board.
Installing the 2K 17
With the door removed from the mainframe, examine the board LED’s
and note that:
CPU Board- has three green LED’s lit towards the left side of the board.
Adjacent to each of these LED’s are 4 red LED’s that go on/off
sequentially.

The Output board has a number at green LED’s lit that depends on the
system output configuration. This will not be illuminated until the
mainframe and the Linux PC are communicating.
Wait until the Linux PC boots up to the Desktop. Double click on the
NUI icon. On the next screen double click on the 2K icon.
If this is the initial power up of the system, then click on Setup towards
the bottom of the screen. The password is artisan. Click on the 2K
Port Setup. Then click on OK or Apply then Cancel.
Use the 2K Port Setup interface to configure the 2K for the appropriate
Source. Select the type of telecine connected by right-clicking on the
button in the upper right, second from the top, which will say Spirit. This
will reveal a drop down menu listing the types of telecine. Select your
source telecine by left clicking. For an Ursa there will be three further
selections for Clearview, Metaspeed and Ursa NP (non Gold control
protocol). Select the appropriate options here. Then click on the button
labelled Setup TK. This will automatically assign the ports required for
your telecine. You should then assign the remaining ports for their
required functions, i.e.VTR NR or DDR. You should assign port O for
DDR in the case of a Gallery. You should not turn on more ports than are
actually going to be used.
18 Installing the 2K
In the case of a Tape to Tape only system, assign a VTR to be the default
source by selecting it in the far left column and clicking on the Source
button. Click on OK and then cancel out of Site Admin.
At the bottom of this window select the 2K Input tab to select the
appropriate input for the system. There is a wide range of Standard
Definition and High Definition choices.
Next select the 2K Output tab to verify the settings and make any
adjustments.
The Test Pattern section is part of the 2K Output tab and can be used
to verify the proper operation of the 2K System. A variety of test
patterns can be generated from each of the boards in the system. Free-
run in combination with one of the 2K test patterns can be selected to
provide a 2K output in the case where no input video is available.
The next tab contains the Scene Detector preferences. Use this section
to adjust the scene detector operation.
When there are no further changes to be made under Setup then click
on Apply to effect changes. If this produces an unwanted result, then
click on Cancel to undo changes. You can also click on OK (which
applies the changes and closes the window).
To save changes made under Setup, go to File and select Save Config
or Save Config As.
If, for any reason, there is no video output from the 2K, try using a
Yellow Diamond-BaseMem to start at the factory defaults and adjust
source settings again. This will reset all values to a center value (8000
hex).
Installing the 2K 19
Cintel URSA
This section describes the interface of the 2K to the Cintel Ursa telecine.
See Appendix F for details of cable part numbers and hookup
arrangements.
URSA CONTROL
For URSA installations, the 2K mainframe loads da Vinci developed
software which is specifically designed for use with the URSA. No
telecine modifications are required.
In the case of the non-Metaspeed Ursa, a modification may be necessary
to the 2K cpu board. These must be performed by daVinci personnel.
The URSA is controlled by serial digital links. Two 10-meter, 9-pin
cables and one special cable to handle frame count and pull down pulse
information are supplied to connect the URSA with the 2k mainframe.
VIDEO
The recommended video connection from URSA to the 2K is to use a
parallel to serial converter to drive the 2K serial input. For the URSA
GOLD, this would most likely be the 4:4:4:4 parallel connections with two
parallel to serial converters. This method would allow a serial routing
matrix in the path so that uncorrected URSA signals could easily be sent
elsewhere. An alternative method is the analog outputs could be routed
somewhere then digitized for input to the 2K.
Thomson Spirit
SPIRIT CONTROL
For Spirit Datacine installations, the 2K mainframe contains an Ethernet
interface that is specifically designed for use with the Spirit. No Datacine
modifications are required.
The Spirit is controlled by a 10-BaseT Ethernet connection found on the
rear of the 2K mainframe. This usually connects to a small hub located
inside the Spirit. One additional cable (#050500) connects from the da
Vinci mainframe “Telecine Pulses” connector to the Spirit’s External Aux.
connector J30. This supplies the FRI, FRID.
On the Spirit remote control panel, set all the remote interface selections
to Remote 3, to give da Vinci control of the Datacine. Remote control is
selected when the source key is selected.
Gallery PC is set up and working, it does not need to be accessed for the
Still Store functionality at the NUI end to work. It will auto-boot and run
the daVinci Still Store program at power up without any user intervention.
Aside from the keyboard, mouse, and display connections there are two
Cat5 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports on the Gallery PC. They are on the back
of the PC, one above the other. They are labeled Link1 and Link2. Link1
is on top.
The Link1 (top) Ethernet connector is connected to the Linux PCI
10/100BaseT Ethernet port.
The Link2 (bottom) Ethernet connector is connected to the 2K mainframe
Still Store Ethernet port. The 2K has two Still Store ports. One is a
10BaseT and the other is a 100BaseT port. Currently, the systems are
shipping with the Legalizer board configured for 10BaseT operation with
the rotary switches on that board set to 0, 4. To operate in 100BaseT
mode, set the rotary switches on the Legalizer board to 0, C. It is
recommended that your system is set to 100BaseT operation.
You cannot connect the Gallery PC Ethernet ports to the 2K frame or the
Linux PC using direct straight-through Cat45 cables. You must use either
a crossover cable, or use direct cables with a hub/switch in the middle. We
currently send one long crossover cable, one hub/switch, and two short
direct cables. The current Gallery Hookup drawing (420-04100-A00 on
the Dec 2000 Field Eng CD) shows the hub going in the link to the Linux
PC, and the crossover cable going to the 2K frame. If you are not planning
on connecting the Gallery to a house network then the hub is not required
and two crossover cables can be used instead.
IP Address configuration:
The Linux PC has installed a main PCI Ethernet adaptor (eth0) and a
secondary PCI Ethernet adaptor (eth1) IP address set to the 192 prefix.
The 192 prefix is used on the primary Linux PC eth0 and eth1 Ethernet
link to the 2K mainframe.
Linux PC Settings:
On the Linux PC, you can go to System, Network Configuration, enter
password if prompted (daVinci) and highlight the eth1 interface. Click on
edit, and check the address is 192.9.0.220. Then in a shell, cd to the /etc
directory, and edit the hosts file (must be su to do this). In the hosts file
there are two entries: pcstill and tlc. Check IP address for pcstill, it should
be 192.168.10.2 and check the IP address for tlc, it should be
192.168.10.50. Now click on eth0 and click edit and check the address is
192.168.10.1.
You can also click on the Hosts Tab in the Network Configuration
Window to see all the IP addresses that are set up.
22 Installing the 2K
Gallery PC Settings:
Assuming the Gallery PC is up and running, the daVinci Still Store
application should also be running. Click on the Tools menu, and go to
Options. Click on the Environment tab. Check the PC-O2 address is
192.168.10.2. Check the O2 PC address is 192.168.10.1. Exit the daVinci
Still Store application. This can be done by clicking the File menu, and
then Exit. (Note: Before the Linux platform existed, we used the SGI O2
platform, the Gallery Software makes reference to this, it is important to
understand that it’s the addresses that are of importance because the
Gallery software still references the O2 and the name of this value may
NOT change).
Click on the Start icon, then Settings then Network and Dial Up
Connections. Double click the Gallery-O2 icon, and click Properties.
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties. Check that the
IP address is 192.168.10.2. Exit the Network setup area.
Launch the daVinci Still Store application. It’s under Start – Programs –
daVinci Still Store – daVinci Still Store.
If the NUI application is running and you log in as a user, the Linux status
at the bottom of the daVinci Still Store app screen on the Gallery should
say CONNECTED. If it says DISCONNECTED, something is not right
with either the IP address settings, or the physical Ethernet connections
between the Linux PC and the Gallery PC.
This gets all the basic interconnections up and running. If you press
GRAB STILL on the NUI keyboard panel, you should see the image
appear on the Gallery daVinci Still Store app screen.
There is now further setup required at the Linux PC NUI end to assign the
Gallery Still Store device as the device you desire to use for stills.
Linux PC NUI setup:
Go into the Site Admin menu, and select 2K Port Config. On any one
available port A through O, enable a DDR. It does not matter which port
as long as it is not being used by another device. Close the Port Config
window then again under the Site Admin menu select Reference Store
Setup. It may already be properly setup. You should see a device called
Ref Store and the model should be DV Still Store. If that is not there, then
use the ADD button to add it in the Device area. The default amount of
frames for this will be 20000. This number has no affect on the operation
of the Gallery so there is no need to try and change it. You DO NOT need
to add specific users for the Ref Store. Click on the Save Devices button
then exit the Reference Store Setup window and login as a user.
Under the VSR/Still Manager menu, select Setup Reference Store. If
you’ve done everything else correctly, you should see that the device =
Ref Store - DV Still Store, and it should be selected and active. Then
Installing the 2K 23
under the Grab/Delete tab, you can select the AutoGrab functions you
desire.

HiPPI DATA x 1.6Gb/s 2 Serial @ 1.6 Gb/s
Installing the 2K 27
One of the biggest problems in making film post production cost effective
in video facilities has been the ability to move and process film resolution
images at relatively fast speeds. The requirement is for 4 x 3 images to be
scanned at a resolution of 2048 pixels by 1556 lines RGB with 10-bit log
pixel depth at 24fps. This has become an accepted resolution for post
production of motion pictures and special effects shots. However, these
images represent a huge data requirement with large bandwidths, requiring
a suitably high data rate pipe.
Because the required image size does not conform to any of the current
television resolutions, the industry initially settled on the HiPPI (High
Performance Parallel Interface) layer as the data infrastructure. HiPPI,
with its limited bandwidth and the data and file handshaking requirements,
has limited practical speeds of around 4fps. HiPPI requires both the
scanner and a high-end workstation to be available for management,
making it expensive. Because it uses generic data disks or the storage of a
workstation application, it creates a whole layer of expensive
infrastructure most facilities would not normally need. Therefore, HiPPI
is non-real-time, workstation-based, and is slow and expensive. It requires
an infrastructure that is difficult to install, maintain and use in real-world
applications.
The new High Speed Data Link (HSDL) addresses these problems by
providing an efficient transport mechanism for moving data from point to
point, processing it, and sharing it between applications.
HSDL supports 2048 x 1556 RGB 10-bit log images at close to real-time
by utilizing the SMPTE 292 1.485 Gbit structure based on co-axial cables
and BNC plugs—common facility hardware. Using these connections in
dual link mode results in an effective data transfer rate of close to 3 Gbits
on two co-axial BNC connections. This is not video or HDTV but 2048 x
1556, 4 x 3 uncompressed images transferring at 15 - 20 frames per
second. HSDL represents a 5-fold increase in transfer speed. Because the
serial links are used, HSDL images can pass through SMPTE292 routers,
patch panels and the rest of the facility’s infrastructure already in place for
HD video. HSDL utilizes a real-time interface with television timing such
as vertical and horizontal syncs, and blanking data so data color timing
sessions can be performed at near real-time running speeds.
HSDL images can be imported as data into a workstation fitted out with
dual HD I/O making them available for film restoration, compositing,
editing, and film recorders. Archiving and transporting HSDL material
can be done with data transports such as DTF2 or D6.
The following drawing depicts the general system configuration when
doing a transfer from a telecine to a recording device using HSDL. This
allows a user to scan film at 2048x1556 resolution and store the images at
the chosen HSDL frame rate.
