Wireless Setting Procedure

This chapter describes the wireless setting procedure. In particular, the decision process for wireless channel allocation and the wireless communication trouble shooting process are described, including:

  • Wireless channel allocation with multiple screens
  • Trouble shooting, such as sound and caption interruption.

As a number of transmitters are allocated for various screen areas in one theater, one transmitter may affect another screen's wireless communication area.

This wireless system uses the 2.4GHz frequency, and it is possible that other 2.4GHz wireless signal sources, e.g., Wi-Fi may cause interference in this system.

This chapter describes the wireless channel allocation procedure, and workarounds for smooth installation.

This chapter is intended for a theater operator and Sony service engineer.

Term

Crosstalk: Phenomena resulting in another transmitter's signal reaching a different screen area.

Interference: Infringement of signal from another wireless signal source of the same frequency.

Channels: 14 channels that user can choose G1 - G7 and Y1 - Y7.

Channel number: The numeric attached to the Channel indicates wireless frequency.

For example, G1 and Y1 use the same frequency.

Channel-pair: Channels that use the same channel number. For example, G1 and Y1 are channel-pair.

Pre-Check

  • Check all 2.4GHz wireless systems in the theater.
  • Stop them if they are not used.

Check regularly to make sure that unnecessary systems are not working.

The STWA-C101/STW-C140GI system uses the 2.4GHz frequency. Other devices that use the same frequency may cause interference in this system.

Channel Allocation

Allocate the channel for each screen based on the following fundamental allocation rule. Otherwise, wireless communication may not work as a result of crosstalk or other interference.

There are 14 channels: G1 to G7 (G group) and Y1 to Y7 (Y group). G group and Y group communicate independently, even if they share the same channel number. For example, although G1 and Y1 share the same frequency, these channels can be separated from each other.

Fundamental allocation rule

  1. Choose at least one unallocated channel-pair.
  2. If possible, refrain from using the same channel, such as G1 and G1.
  3. The same channel number, such as G1 and G1, or G1 and Y1, should not be used for adjacent screens (side-by-side, facing one another, or diagonally from one another).

The illustration below shows an example of channel allocation for a theater with 8 screens (1 row of screens on either side of a central corridor). Screens are depicted as rectangular boxes in the figure. Screens marked "×" break fundamental allocation rule 3.

G1 G2X Y2 Y3X
Y2 Y2 XY4 Y5 X

The illustration below shows an example of correct channel allocation for a theater with 7 screens on either side of a central corridor.

G1 G2 G3 G4G5 G7Y4
Y4 Y5Y7 Y1Y2 Y3 G1
Unallocated channelsG6 Y6
  • G1 and Y4 are used at 2 screens. Same channels (G1 and G1, Y4 and Y4) should be allocated as far from one another as possible, as shown in the illustration.
  • Channel groups of the same number (e.g. G1 and Y1) can be allocated to screens closer together than identical channels (G1 and G1).
  • Channel-pair G6 and Y6 is kept unallocated in the example. The unallocated channel-pair can help to avoid crosstalk and interference, as explained in "Avoiding Crosstalk and Interference" (page 19).

For further examples, see "Channel Allocation Examples" (page 23)

Detecting Crosstalk and Interference

After allocating channels, make sure that the transmitters at all the screens are running and that no crosstalk or interference occurs at any of the screens.

While you are checking the system, you may recognize problems such as crosstalk or interference.

Correct transmission can more easily be determined by sound than by captions.

Evaluate HI/VI sound at the center of the auditorium as shown in the illustration below. The characteristics of the wireless antenna can make data reception in the corner areas of an auditorium difficult. Also, keep obstacles (including your hand) away from the receiver.

SONY STWA-C101 - Detecting Crosstalk and Interference - 1

If HI/VI sound breakup occurs frequently, it is likely a result of one or both of the following:

1) Channel allocation does not satisfy the fundamental allocation, resulting in crosstalk. Check channel allocation again.
2) Another wireless system is causing interference.

A wireless system using the 2.4GHz frequency may be causing interference.

Avoiding Crosstalk and Interference

This section explains how to avoid crosstalk or interference without the need for specialized equipment. The same approach can be applied in the case of a caption problem. If you cannot solve the problem, it is likely that specialized equipment is required to resolve it. In this case, contact a service office.

The illustration below shows a case where sound breakup occurs at Y4 (shown in gray).

SONY STWA-C101 - Avoiding Crosstalk and Interference - 1

Unallocated channelsG6 Y6

The 3-step workaround process is as follows;

Step 1 Re-check Channel Allocation

Make sure that the channel allocation in the theater follows the fundamental allocation rules (page 18). Also, see "Channel Allocation Examples" (page 23).

After channel allocation, make sure that the transmitters for all the screens are running and no crosstalk or interference occurs at any of the screens. If the problem is not solved, another wireless device may be causing the problem. In this case, try Step 2 or Step 3.

Step 2 Use Workaround 1: Replace With Unallocated Channel

1. Check for available unallocated channel-pairs.

In the illustration below, G6 and Y6 are an unallocated channel-pair.

SONY STWA-C101 - Check for available unallocated channel-pairs. - 1

Unallocated channelsG6 Y6#Y

2. Replace the channel at the problem screen with an unallocated channel.

Select a channel of the same channel group. In this case, replace Y4 with Y6. This action does not break fundamental allocation rule 3.

SONY STWA-C101 - Replace the channel at the problem screen with an unallocated channel. - 1

3. You may replace the channel for at the problem screen with the other unallocated channel.

However, replacing with "the other unallocated channel" may break the fundamental allocation rule 3. Make sure that allocation follows the fundamental allocation rule 3 to avoid possible crosstalk.

4. With the entire system running, check neither sound nor caption interruption occurs at the screens where you replaced the channel.

The workaround is success, if there is no problem.

Detailed examples of workaround 1 can be seen in "Workaround Examples" (page 28).

Step 3 Use Workaround 2: Replace Y7 or G7

SONY STWA-C101 - Step 3 Use Workaround 2: Replace Y7 or G7 - 1

1. Replace Y4 and Y7

G7 and Y7 are relatively tolerant about other wireless signals, compared with other channels.

2. Replace G4 and G7

This action follows fundamental allocation rule 3.

SONY STWA-C101 - Replace G4 and G7 - 1

3. Check neither sound nor caption interruption occurs at the screens where you replaced the Channel with all of the system running.

The workaround is success if there is no problem.

Detailed examples of Workaround 2 can be seen in "Workaround Examples" (page 28).

In Case the Problem is Not Solved

If you cannot solve the problem by the process described above, call the service office.

Channel Allocation Examples

This section provides typical examples of channel allocation.

1. Standard channel allocation

The following shows the standard allocation pattern, based on a dual-row theater of 24 screens.

SONY STWA-C101 - Standard channel allocation - 1

  • Cut out a portion of the standard allocation pattern according to each theater layout and allocate them.
  • This standard allocation pattern follows (complies with) the fundamental allocation rule described in "Channel Allocation" (page 17).
    Description of allocation:
  • The available channels are G1-G7 and Y1-Y7. Reserve G6 and Y6 as unallocated channels.
  • In order to avoid the cross talk, G row and Y row are flipped at the middle.
  • In the case of over 24 screens, repeats the standard allocation pattern as it is.

2. In the case of 8 screens in line
