HUM PROBLEMS

If you hear undesirable hum from the speakers when you apply power to the CP65 and other projection room equipment, check the following list for possible causes:

1.Ground loops caused by audio signal wiring, especially to power amplifiers. Only one end of an audio shield wire should be connected. See Pages 2- 3 and 2-4. Be sure to check the booth monitor installation.

The CP65 backplane contains a link which connects frame ground to signal/power ground (TB2 terminals 8 and 9). If you have checked items 1 through 7 and hum is still present, removing this link may fix the problem.

2.Projector power wiring. All mains wiring should be properly grounded.

3.Room lighting dimmer controls (SCR-TYPE).
