1 Introduction
1.1 Introduction
This document explains how to install the IMB into a Christie Series-2 projector. This document
also describes the steps required to perform the “marriage” between the IMB SM and the
projector electronics. Marriage is the process of engaging the DCI physical and software
interlocks that enable the display of secured materials.
The IMB requires a Doremi ShowVault server in order to work. This document also explains how
to set up and connect the ShowVault server to the IMB board.

1.2 Purpose
One of the key ideas behind marriage is that an authority figure examines the projector and
ensures that it has not been tampered with before a marriage can be performed. This means
that a person must be physically at the projector when the marriage is performed. It cannot be
done remotely. To ensure an authority figure is present, there is a physical marriage button (or
RFID key) on the projector which must be pressed in order for the marriage process to
complete. Please contact your system administrator or Christie Technical Support for the
required passwords.

1.3 Software Version

 This manual was written and performed on ShowVault software version 2.0.10.
 It also made (written) with IMB Revision E board, but it is valid for all IMB hardware
revisions.
 This document is to be used with IMB SM 5.0.5 and higher.
 It is also to be used on Christie projector software 1.4 or higher with TI (ICP) firmware
2.2.294 or higher (this firmware is installed by the Christie installer program).

6 IMB Troubleshooting Instructions
This section gives the steps to follow to support the troubleshooting that the installer (mainly
Barco for Cinemark) has when installing IMB in the projector. It seems that a common issue is
the failure for the ShowVault to connect to the SM, showing "missing" for the SM version. In any
case, BEFORE replacing an IMB or trying another, the user(s) needs to get a Detailed Report
from the Showvault and send it to Doremi Technical Support with the serial number of the
Showvault (S/N sticker on the back of the unit).

6.1 Check the Projector Version

 This is to help determine if a new projector version is in use.

6.2 Check the Diagnostic Tool GUI for Errors

 Check the Serial Number, Software Version, Firmware Version, and SM Version.
 The color is to be asked too, as it has an important meaning:
o Black means that the value was read from the IMB.
o Red means that the value could not be read from the IMB and the last known
value is displayed.

6.3 Check the PCI-Express Connection

 In a new Linux terminal, type: /doremi/sbin/mcsetup.out --get-serial (This command
tests path 1).

 If the command returns a failure with "Mcore context", then it means the driver is not
running. This is likely an issue with the PCIe either not connected or not seen.

 Have the PCIe cable unplugged and then replugged to see if it fixes the issue.

 If the PCIe unplug doesn't fix it, try to have the ShowVault and projector re-booted once.
If this doesn't fix the problem, then go to Section 6.6 and get a Detailed Report.

Note: As long as this issue is not fixed, performing the following steps will lead to failure.

CRT.OM.001420.DRM Page 31 Version1.6

Doremi Labs
6.4 Check the Ethernet Setting

a) Check the Device Manager:

 Check the Ethernet port configuration:

 /sbin/ifconfig

 Note the IP of both eth0 and eth1. Make sure a projector is set with the proper IP
address.

 If the Device Manager doesn't have a projector setup, have them set it up and wait 30
seconds after they enable and Save it.

 Make sure other devices (like Jnior) are set with the proper IP address.

 Make sure those devices in Device Manager don't have the same IP addresses as the
Showvault.

 Try to ping this IP address to make sure Ethernet connection is "OK". This tests path 2.

 If the ping fails the Ethernet is not connected properly.

 Maybe eth0 and eth1 are not set properly above. Or maybe the connection is not to the
correct eth0 or eth1.

b) Check that the IMB has the proper IP address:

 Run the command: /doremi/sbin/mcsetup.out --get-ipconfig (this should return IP

192.168.254.246).

 Run the command: /doremi/sbin/mcsetup.out --get-ipconfig-ext (it should return

the IP set in the Device Manager for the projector).

 If both IPs here are the expected ones then the PCIe is connected properly and the
IMB is configured with the proper IP.

 If the IP is not correct, make sure the Device Manager is configured properly.

 If the commands return a failure with "Mcore context" it means that the driver is not
running.

 See Section 6.3 (if step 3 passes, I would assume there is not a "Mcore context"
failure.

CRT.OM.001420.DRM Page 32 Version1.6

Doremi Labs
6.5 Check the Communication with the IMB
 Check the Ethernet:

 If the test in Section 6.4 passed, then run the command: /doremi/sbin/sbcsetup.out -a -
-get-temperature (this will exercise the communication with the IMB without the need of
a proper synchronization of certificate). Also, this tests path 2 and path 3.

 If it succeeds it means that the hardware and network configuration are "OK."

 If it fails, it means that the IMB is not connected via Ethernet to the router internally of the
projector.

 This is what typically would require a re-seating of the IMB (or modified front plate).

 Check the certificate configuration:

 Run the command: /doremi/sbin/sbcsetup.out --get-version

 If it succeeds, the Showvault and IMB are communication find and there is no problem.

 If the command reports a failure with "mismatch key", it means that the certificate in
/doremi/etc/certs/mine is not the one corresponding to the IMB it is connected to.

 The easiest is to reboot the ShowVault. The synchronization of the certificate should be
done during reboot.

 It might be necessary to remove all the pem files in /doremi/etc/certs/mine before the
reboot.

 A more complicated (more complicated to have a technician on the phone to execute)

but quicker way to fix is it: Run the command: /doremi/sbin/sbcsetup.out -a -f --verify -
-force-repair

 Again try the command /doremi/sbin/sbcsetup.out --get-version, if it succeeds the

problem is fixed.

CRT.OM.001420.DRM Page 33 Version1.6

Doremi Labs
6.6 How to Generate a Detailed Report
If the issue is still not fixed generate a Detailed Report and send it to Doremi Technical Support
(especially BEFORE replacing the current IMB). Along with the Detailed Report, send the
following information: Site name and number, screen number, S/N of the ShowVault, and
projector version.

6.7 IMB Configuration Script

You can execute the script IMB_Configuration_check.sh which will run the commands
outlined in Section 6.5.

 The script will be available in /doremi/bin. If it’s not, please copy it there.

 To run the script: Type: > /doremi/bin/IMB_Configuration_check.sh

 The script will run multiple commands. You have to press enter to proceed after each
command.

Below are the details of the script as the technician will see it. In case of a failure, the script will
prompt the technician on the steps needs to be taken and it will exit. The technician needs to
follow the script instructions and run the script until it passes all of them.

7.1 Replacing the IMB Battery
Follow the procedure below to replace the IMB battery:
The battery must be replaced every 5 years. Battery information includes the following:
 Manufactured Part Number: BR3032 from Panasonic

To replace the battery, apply the following procedure:

1. Make sure you have all the required parts and tools as stated below:
a) One screwdriver
b) One plastic (non-conductive) Probe / Prying Tool
c) Projector door key
d) New IMB battery
e) Specific projector's documentation explaining how to remove/insert the IMB
from/into the projector.

Figure 31: Required Tools

CRT.OM.001420.DRM Page 36 Version1.6

Doremi Labs
 2. Power ON the projector and its connected ShowVault. Make sure the IMB works fine by
performing an encrypted content playback using a valid KDM.
3. Check that the IMB has a valid identity.
4. Unplug the Ethernet cable from the projector.
5. Unplug the PCI-e cable from the IMB.
6. Open any projector lid and door that covers the IMB without removing the IMB yet –
check specific projector's documentation if needed.
7. Power OFF the projector – you have from this point only 5 minutes to complete the
battery replacement. Otherwise the board will have to be re-programmed by Doremi
Labs, meaning that all the existing KDMs will have to be re-generated for the new
identity that will be assigned to the board.
8. Remove the IMB from the projector - check specific projector's documentation if needed.
9. Remove the existing battery using the plastic tool by pushing on one side of the battery.
From this point, you only have 2 minutes left in order to insert the new battery.
Otherwise, the board will have to be re-programmed by Doremi Labs, meaning that
all the existing KDMs will have to be re-generated for the new identity that will be
