Dolby DR-37P Standard Operating Procedures |
| |
Ensure that there is enough FC-11 (FC-77?) liquid coolant in the reservoir of the display. Allan thinks enough means more than half full. You want enough so that (1) the hose connected to the bottom of the reservoir (which sucks coolant from the reservoir) is sucking coolant and not air, and so that (2) you can visibly see coolant circulating through the hoses when the coolant pump is running. |

< | When powering on the display, do not wait long before logging in and running "DR-37P GUI V48.5.exe". This control program allows you to monitor the temperatures in the display as well as control it. When you run it it should ask if you want to connect to display 1106 and you click OK. If it can't find the display, you will need to log out and back in. |

The default mode for the display upon power-on is a full-brightness mode, which can cause significant heat. For most uses, check the 8-Bit+ Mode box in the HDR Control Panel. This enters a lower-brightness mode which substantially reduces the risk of overheating. This mode is also suitable for full-brightness use of the display, because HDR Viewer expects this mode for displaying full-brightness imagery.
Magnetic liquid cooling pump |

< | When cold, the temperatures should be in the mid-20s. Even in 8-bit+ mode, the temperature may climb into the 30s when not using HDR Viewer, or higher when using HDR Viewer. This is a sign that the cooling pump might be stalled. |

The cooling pump is often stalled when the display is powered on. |

If you suspect that the cooling pump might be stalled, it can be restarted with the following procedure. |

Power down procedure |
|
<
< | If you power down the display, do not simply power it back up and leave it. You will need to exit and restart the HDR Control Panel ("DR-37P GUI V48.5.exe") so that you can monitor and control the temperatures. You will also need to plug out and back in the USB cable connecting it to the computer, to reestablish that connection. |

Use the following steps to log out:
- 1. Terminate all programs on the computer, including HDR Control Panel
- 2. Log out of the computer.
- 3. Power down the HDR display.

Powering down while remaining logged in
If the overheating risk mitigation policies in this document are followed, it should be safe to leave the display on unattended for extended periods of time such as a day or more. This can be useful if you're in the middle of a large task such that it is inconvenient to log out. However, if you wish to turn off the display but not log out, and come back later and continue to use the display, use the following procedure. |
|
<
< |
- 1. Power down the HDR display.
- 2. Unplug the USB cable from the HDR display.
- 3. Terminate the HDR Control Panel program.
