AES-6880 AES/EBU Digital Audio Distribution Amplifier Module

Overview
The AES-6880 is a differential input, eight output; AES/EBU digital audio distribution amplifier. Using Coaxial Cable, The AES-6880 digital audio distribution amplifier features cable auto-equalization, data reclocking, and incoming data error detection and reporting.The error detection and reporting features utilize front-mounted LEDs and an external alarm contact closure. Housed in either an FR-6800 or FR-7000 series frame, the AES-6880 meets interface standards according to SMPTE 276M. Specifications and designs are subject to change without notice.

Equalization Adjustment
The AES-6880 distribution amplifier provides two options for equalization adjustment: Manual and Automatic. The mode is selected using jumper J1 near the front edge of the DA card. See Figure 1-3 on page 4 for jumper location.
Manual Equalization
In Manual adjust mode, a card-edge, multi-turn potentiometer (R19) is used for adjusting equalization. The Confidence flag warning on the card-edge LED is used to determine the amount of equalization required without external test equipment. If the Confidence flag error LED is on, then more equalization is needed. To increase the amount of equalization, simply use a screwdriver to turn the Manual equalization adjustment potentiometer (R19) clockwise until the Confidence LED indicator turns off. See Figure 1-3 on page 4 for potentiometer location.
Automatic Equalization
In Automatic adjust mode, the distribution amplifier automatically sets the amount of cable equalization needed. This mode eliminates the need to re-adjust equalization if another distribution amplifier is installed or exchanged, or if the cable length changes. The equalization is designed for using 2000 ft (600 m) of Belden 8281 cable or the equivalent. In practice, if the incoming signal is a standard AES signal for coaxial cable systems, this DA can compensate up to 6000 ft (1800 m) of Belden 8281 cable or equivalent.
The factory default configurations for J1 is in the Auto position, and the Manual equalization adjustment potentiometer (R19) is set for zero compensation.

Error Detection and Reporting

The AES-6880 DA constantly monitors the incoming AES data stream and reports the following error conditions via the LED indicators mounted near the cards front edge. LED indicators and conditions are described in the following table: Condition
All OK; No Errors No Lock Biphase Coding Error Parity Error CRC Error
Indicator
Green LED Red LED Red LED Red LED Red LED
Description Of Condition
No errors detected. Signal is not present or cannot be locked. Biphase coding of incoming date is incorrect. SRD streams parity bit is not set as specified. The CRC value calculated for the incoming data does not match the CRC byte of the channel status word. The received data eye opening is less than a half-bit period, indicating a possible lack of signal strength or high jitter. May also indicate that insufficient EA is applied.

User Configurable Contact Closure Alarm Indicator

A red LED mounted under the Error LEDs on the front edge of the DA card provides a user-configurable Contact Closure alarm indicator. When this LED is on, the external alarm contact closure is asserted, indicating an error has occurred. Jumpers J3A-F are used to determine which error conditions will trigger the alarm (see Figure 1-4 below). When all of the jumpers are in place, any of the condition errors will trigger the Contact Closure alarm to be asserted. If one of these jumpers is removed, then the error condition associated with the missing jumper may occur but will not trigger the Contact Closure alarm to be asserted and the Alarm LED will not light. Whenever the contact closure alarm is asserted, the Alarm LED will light and an alarm Contact Closure signal will be sent out.

An external alarm may be connected to an FR-6800 or FR-7000 series frame housing this and other DAs. The alarm is shared by all the DA modules housed within the frame. If a card within the frame detects and triggers the Contact Closure alarm, the external alarm is asserted. Figure 1-5 below shows how a typical alarm configuration looks within a system.

DNH-6800 DigiNet Hub Module

Overview
The DNH-6800 DigiNet Hub module connects up to nine separate DigiNet cable segments into one logical control network, making it possible to span large physical distances and support a greater number of unit nodes without degradation of signal quality due to attenuation and return loss. A data stream originating from a node on any one of the nine DigiNet segments is automatically detected, reclocked, reshaped, and retransmitted to all other segments by the DNH-6800. DigiNets Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detect (CSMA/CD) protocol is supported by implementing independent collision detection on each channel and by a jamming mechanism that propagates a collision event detected on a transmitting channel to transmitting nodes on all other channels (see Figure 2-1 DNH-6800 Block Diagram Flow on page 12). Specifications and designs are subject to change without notice.

Installation
The DNH-6800 is designed to be used in a 1RU FR-680x and FR-7001 frame, or a 2RU FR-680x frame. A 1RU frame will accommodate a maximum of Four DNH-6800s, while a 2RU will accommodate a maximum of Ten DNH-6800s.
Mounting Requirements
The DNH-6800 module requires 1.75 in. (44 mm) of standard 19 in. (483mm) rack space. The depth from the mounting surface is 17.5 in. (445 mm).
Cooling
The DNH-6800 unit is designed to operate in an ambient temperature range of 0 to +50C. No special provisions for cooling are necessary, but care should be taken to prevent excessive heat rise in closed, unventilated equipment racks.
15
Connections
Connections
Channel 0 is connected to the dedicated DigiNet port (AUX B) of a given 6800 series frame. To allow several DNHs to be contained within a single frame without excessive loading of the transceivers, it is not terminated. Auxiliary B (Channel 0) can be disabled to allow several DNH modules in a single frame to be isolated from each other. An external terminator should always be installed on the frames dedicated DigiNet connector. The other eight channels are connected to the eight output BNCs located on the backplane (the backplanes input BNC is unused).
16
Network Configurations
The most suitable configuration for a network is dependent upon its size. Examples of small, medium, and large networks are shown in the following sections.

Indicators and Controls
The user interface consists of LEDs that indicate various states or activities, a jumper for disabling Channel 0, and a Reset button. These are described in the table below and shown in Figure 2-5 on page 21. Indicators and Controls
Power LED Channel LEDs
Function
The green power LED indicates that the DNH-6800 is powered on. Each channel has a pair of LEDs, one green and one red. The green LED lights when signal transmission is occurring on that channel. The red LED briefly lights when a signal collision occurs on that channel.
Jamming LED
When a signal collision occurs, the DNH-6800 briefly jams all the nodes from transmitting. The nodes then begin retransmitting the packets at randomized intervals.
The jamming process occurs in conjunction with the collision detection feature and is indicated by a red LED. Channel 0 is disabled with this jumper. This allows each DNH-6800 module within a single frame to act independently. In the event of a configuration failure, this LED remains continuously lit. The Reset button is used to reset the DNH-6800 module after a configuration failure.

EDH-6800-2 EDH Detection/Insertion Serial Distribution Amplifier Module

Overview
The EDH-6800-2 is a versatile serial distribution amplifier that also functions as a digital video Error Detection and Handling (EDH) check word analyzer and decoder. As a distribution amplifier, it provides equalization and reclocking to eight serial outputs. As an EDH analyzer/ inserter, it can detect errors on input signals that contain EDH information and/or insert EDH into signals where it does not already exist. The EDH-6800-2 functions with composite (143 Mb/s), component (270 Mb/s), and the proposed 16:9 (360 Mb/s) standards. With EDH recognized as a method of verifying serial signals for impairments, the EDH-6800-2 offers a compact and cost-effective way of monitoring EDH in serial links without using expensive laboratory analyzers. It also provides the means to inject EDH check words into serial digital video signal paths. With its eight equalized and reclocked outputs, the EDH-6800-2 can also be used within a system in place of a serial distribution amplifier, with the added benefit of EDH. Controls and indicators provide a comprehensive set of analysis functions. With them, EDH encoding on the output signal can be turned on or off and input presence and status are indicated. An on-board audible alarm can be enabled to alert the user to input signal EDH errors and an opto-isolated contact-to-ground signal can be used to interface to any external fault warning system. Specifications and designs are subject to change without notice.
EDH analysis is not currently available for 360 Mb/s mode.

When one or multiple EDH-6800-2 modules are linked together over a 75W network (DigiNet) and connected to the central controller (PC or Leitch DigiNet panel), the Service button allows you to locate the position of the particular EDH-6800-2 in the network in certain circumstances. Alarm (SW3) Audible alarm On/Off switch. This switch allows you to turn the audible alarm On or Off. In the On position, the sound transducer will produce a high-pitched sound when an error is detected in the incoming serial digital video (as configured by the FF/AP jumper).
Con/Lat (SW1) Latching/continuous error indication switch.

Switch
Frame ID (SW4, SW5)
All EDH-6800-2 (and similar) modules should have the same setting for the Frame ID switches. This is not strictly necessary if 9000SSN Frame ID is in use, since all modules in the same frame will use the same 9000SSN Frame ID.
Description
Frame ID switches. If EDH-6800-2 does not detect the presence of the 9000SSN Frame ID device (if none are present at the RJ11, or if FR_ID jumpers are Off), it will attempt to use the dual HEX Frame ID switches (SW4 and SW5) to determine the frame ID. SW4 is the most significant hex digit, while SW5 is the least significant. For example, for a Frame ID of 0x42, SW4 should be set to 4 and SW5 should be set to 2. Any hex value other than 0xFF may be used as an EDH-6800-2 Frame ID. A Frame ID setting of 0 x FF indicates that Frame ID setting should not be used. In the latter case, EDH-6800-2 module network identification will be determined by the network controller (for example, EDH view application). EDH-6800-2 (and similar modules) should use the following Frame ID modes, listed in order of preference: 9000SSN-based Frame ID Frame ID switches-based Frame ID Controller-configured network identification
LEDs

AP_ERR
Active Picture CRC Error Indication (see page 30). The Active Picture Error LED lights when input digital video errors are detected only in the active picture region.
FF_Err
Full field crc error indication. The Full Field Error LED lights when input digital video errors are detected anywhere in the field, including AP, ANC, vertical blanking interval, and horizontal blanking interval regions.
CSUM_Err
Checksum error indication. The Checksum Error LED lights to indicate an input EDH packet checksum error.
D18
Service-micro controller status indication (normally off). The Service LED blinks when the module is powered up, but remains off during normal operation. If the LED is continuously on, or blinking, there is the possibility of hardware failure. The LED remains on when the Service switch (SW2) is pressed.
29
Jumpers
Jumper
525/625
Description
Forces the line standard to 525, 625, or auto. This jumper allows you to set the EDH-6800-2 configuration to the known line standard of either 525 or 625. Removing the jumper puts the module in Auto mode. In Auto Line Standard mode, the EDH-6800-2 automatically detects the line standard and configures accordingly. This jumper is only active if the Remote jumper is set to EN.
FF/AP
Selects the FF or AP region. This jumper allows you to select the error (Active Picture or Full Field) which will activate the Alarm LED, the audible alarm, and the fault reporting opto-isolated output. This jumper is only active if the Remote jumper is set to EN.
Remote EN/ DIS
Enables the Remote. EDH-6800-2 can support three external control interfaces: Local - module-edge LED, jumpers, and switches Network - remote control network interface (DigiNet) Front Panel - MIXBOX front panel interface The Remote EN/DIS jumper, in concert with automatic front-panel detection, places the EDH-6800-2 into one of the following modes:
Remote Jumper
DIS DIS EN EN
Front Panel Detected

NO YES NO YES
Control Mode
LOCAL only FRONT PANEL only NETWORK only NETWORK and FRONT PANEL
EDH On/Off
Enables EDH processing or bypass mode. This jumper enables EDH processing (if On) or places EDH-6800-2 into bypass mode (if Off). In bypass mode, the EDH-6800-2 acts as a simple DA, and both input EDH analysis and output EDH generation are disabled.
30
Jumper
Both jumpers (J5 and J8) must be configured identically. And all EDH-6800-2 (and similar) modules in the same frame must be configured identically (FR-ID On or Off).
Description
Selects between external 9000SSN Frame ID or fault opto-isolated output. When set to On, EDH-6800-2 will attempt to read the Frame ID from the 9000SSN silicon serial number device at the FR-680X series frame RJ11 connector. When set to Off, the EDH-6800-2 will use the RJ11 connector for the fault reporting output (see page 32.) When both jumpers are removed, the EDH-6800-2 is isolated from the RJ11 connector. If EDH-6800-2 does not detect the 9000SSN device (if none is present at the RJ11 or if FR-ID is Off), EDH-6800-2 will attempt to use the dual hex Frame ID switches (SW4 and SW5) to determine Frame ID.

Fault Reporting Output
Fault Reporting Output

The fault-reporting optically-isolated output is accessible at the rear RJ11 connector of the FR-680X series frame. RJ11 pins 3 and 4 are used as negative and positive terminals respectively. The output is open when no errors are occurring, is closed with frame power removed, and pulses closed for the duration of a field with EDH errors (as configured by the FF/AP jumper). Figure 3-2 illustrates a basic interface:

USM-6800 PAL/NTSC Monitoring Encoder Module

Overview
The USM-6800 offers the combination of a 4 output NTSC/PAL encoder and a 4 Output serial distribution amplifier. It is capable of removing jitter from the 4:2:2 serial signal before encoding and conversion to analog. The result is a clean composite analog signal which also maintains zero SCH. Automatic switching based on the input line rate of 525 or 625 lines is provided. The USM-6800 can also be configured to provide RGB, YUV or YC outputs. When RGB or YUV are selected, three of the output BNCs provide the component signal, while the remaining BNC still provides composite analog. When YC is selected, two of the outputs are switched to YC, the other two remaining NTSC or PAL, depending upon the line standard in use. An optional adaptor, which plugs into the rear BNCs, provides a standard YC connector. The four serial digital outputs are always present. Specifications and designs are subject to change without notice.

Installation
The VDA-6830 module can be installed in a Leitch FR-680x or FR-7001 series frame, or an FR-7000MB MIX BOX frame. If this module is installed in an FR-7001 series or FR-7000 MB MIX BOX frame, a 6800-M back module is required. There is no need to terminate unused outputs; however, doing so will improve response. A jumper near the board connector provides a selection of input impedance between 75W and high impedance. This jumper should be removed if high-input impedance is required.
Operational Adjustments
The potentiometer is factory set, and re-adjustment is not recommended without precise test equipment.
A multi-turn Gain potentiometer provides adjustment over a range of -3 to +3 dB. A single-turn potentiometer allows fine adjustment of the high-frequency Response (10-30 MHz).The gain is increased when the potentiometer is adjusted clockwise. Both the Gain and Response controls are located on the front edge of the module.

A multi-turn Gain potentiometer provides adjustment over a range of -3 to +3 dB. The gain is increased when this pot is adjusted clockwise. Another multi-turn Equalizing potentiometer is used to adjust cable equalization. It is adjusted clockwise to obtain more equalization. A single-turn Response potentiometer allows fine adjustment of the high-frequency response. However, it is factory-set/calibrated, and readjustment is not recommended without precise test equipment. These three potentiometers are located at the front edge of the module. There is no need to terminate unused outputs; however, a perfect response can be obtained if unused outputs are terminated. Jumper J1 sets internal 75W termination. If removed, it makes the input high-impedance.

The VEA-6840 module can be installed in any of the Leitch FR-6800 series video equalizing amplifier frames. Termination of unused outputs are not required; however, a perfect response can be obtained if unused outputs are terminated.
Removing and Installing the RMV Submodule

The VEA-6840-RMV has a Removable Gain/EQ submodule installed that contains the R5 Gain Adjustment potentiometer and the R6 EQ Adjustment potentiometer. This submodule provides a quick card-to-card transfer of preset Gain and EQ in the event of DA card failure or swap-out. The RMV submodule is removed by gently pulling straight up on the submodule card, and then unplugging it from the DA card. The RMV can be installed onto the new card by plugging it into the same position on the card as before. There is no need to readjust the EQ or Gain because the RMV submodule retains the adjustment from card to card.

A multi-turn potentiometer Gain (R5) allows for adjustment to the gain over a range of 3 dB. The gain is increased when this potentiometer is adjusted clockwise. Another multi-turn potentiometer EQ (R6) allows for adjustment to the equalization. It is adjusted clockwise to obtain more equalization. A single-turn potentiometer Response (R21) allows for fine adjustment to the high-frequency response. It is factory-set/calibrated, and readjustment is not recommended without precise test equipment. These three potentiometers are located at the front edge of the module.

VPD-6830 Programmable Video DA Series

Overview
The VPD-6830 Programmable Video DAs are a series of reliable, highperformance, specialized function DAs for some common DA applications. The VPD-6830 series of DAs provide a differential input, eight outputs, a jumper-selectable input coupling mode for DC and AC coupling, soft and hard clamping capability for composite NTSC and PAL video signals, and a continuously variable equalization for various types of coaxial cables. The VPD-6830 series also features gain adjustment over a range of -3 dB to +3 dB, and high-frequency response adjustment on the front-card edge of the board. Four video submodules are available for installation into the base DA module (VEA-6840). Only one submodule can be installed at a time. Specifications and designs are subject to change without notice.

Configuration
The VPD-6830-DLY240 provides adjustable delay from 0 to 240 ns. The additional delay submodule is shown on the VEA-6840 base card in Figure 8-15 on page 91. To configure the VPD-6830-DLY240: 1. Set the Input Coupling for either AC or DC coupling using jumpers J1 and J2. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for jumper locations. 2. Set the clamping mode on jumper J3 to either Soft, Hard, or No Clamp. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for jumper location. 3. Adjust the gain over a range of -3 dB to +3 dB using the R5 multi-turn potentiometer in the base module. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the gain. See Figure 8-16 on page 92. 4. Adjust the equalization using the R6 multi-turn potentiometer in the base module. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to obtain more equalization. See Figure 8-16 on page 92. 5. Make fine adjustments to the high-frequency response using the R21 single-turn potentiometer in the base module. The high-frequency response is factory-set/calibrated. Readjustment is not recommended without precise test equipment. See Figure 8-16 on page 92. 6. Position the delay submodule P2 jumpers horizontally across the jumper sockets, connecting pins 2 & 4, and pins 1 & 3. Connecting the jumpers horizontally puts them in Bypass mode. Connecting them vertically puts them in Use mode. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for an illustration of this jumper set. 7. Position the delay submodule P3 jumpers either horizontally (Bypass mode) or vertically (Use mode) across the jumper sockets. Jumper P3 is a six-section, two-position jumper set. This jumper selects the desired amount of selectable delay. For each section, there are two jumper positions: horizontal and vertical. The horizontal position is Bypass mode, where a designated amount of delay can be bypassed. The vertical position is the Use position,

VPD-6830-DLY240
where a designated amount of delay is used to select a total amount of delay. Each vertical jumper set that is used represents the amount of delay which can be added together to equal the total amount of delay of the DAs configuration. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for an illustration and an example showing this jumper set. 8. Adjust the fine delay over a range of 0 to 5 ns using the R2 multi-turn potentiometer on the submodule. See Figure 8-16 on page 92. 9. Adjust the R12 multi-turn potentiometer on the submodule to compensate gain loss caused by the delay line. See Figure 8-16 on page 92.

Configurations
The VPD-6830-DLY435, VPD-6830-DLY635, VPD-883-DLY1035, and the VPD-6830-DLY1235 series provides adjustable delay from 0 to 1235 ns delay. The additional delay submodule is shown on the VEA-6840 base card in Figure 8-15 on page 91. To configure a VPD-6830-DLY series module: 1. Set the Input Coupling for either AC or DC coupling using jumpers J1 and J2. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for jumper locations. 2. Set the Clamping mode on jumper J3 to either Soft, Hard, or No Clamp. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for jumper location. 3. Adjust the gain over a range of -3 dB to +3 dB using the R5 multi-turn potentiometer in the base module. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the gain. Adjust the equalization using the R6 multi-turn potentiometer in the base module. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to obtain more equalization. Make fine adjustments to the high-frequency response using the R21 single-turn potentiometer in the base module. The high-frequency response is factory-set/calibrated. Readjustment is not recommended without precise test equipment. 4. Position the delay submodule P2 jumpers horizontally across the jumper sockets (connecting pins 2 and 4, and pins 1 and 3) for Bypass mode.
The fixed delay line can be one of the following amounts: 200, 400, 600, 800, or 1000 ns.
Position the jumpers vertically for Use mode when the fixed delay line is installed. See Figure 8-15 on page 91 for an illustration of this jumper set. 5. Position the delay submodule P3 jumpers either horizontally (Bypass mode) or vertically (Use mode) across the jumper sockets. Jumper P3 is a six-section, two-position jumper set. This jumper selects the desired amount of selectable delay. For each section, there are two jumper positions: horizontal and vertical. The horizontal position is Bypass mode, where a designated amount of delay can be bypassed. The vertical position is the Use position,

VPD-6830-DLY Series
where a designated amount of delay is used to select a total amount of delay. Each Vertical jumper set that is used represents the amount of delay which can be added together to equal the total amount of delay of the DAs configuration. SeeFigure 8-15 on page 91 for an illustration and an example showing this jumper set. 6. Adjust the fine delay over a range of 0 to 5 ns using the R2 multi-turn potentiometer on the submodule. See Figure 8-16 on page 92. 7. Adjust the R12 multi-turn potentiometer on the submodule to compensate gain loss caused by the delay line. See Figure 8-16 on page 92.

Name
Auto Reclock/ 270MHz
Function
This jumper provides the selection of the reclocking mode. In the Auto Reclock mode, the reclocking circuit locks the input data to one of the five rates automatically. In 270 MHz mode, the reclocking circuit locks the input data to 270 MHz directly, which reduces the re-locking time. When the input data is not locked and J2 is set at the No Lock position, the contact closure port will not report the no-locking alarm. When the input data is not present and J3 is set at the N_DATA position, the contact closure circuit will not report the alarm of the data absence out. This pot is designed for the adjustment of the input data threshold level in the input level detect circuit. Used to eliminate the maximum cable length. (The shorter the cable, the less jitter).

Interface Switches

Standard Select
Function
In the Man position the user can force the output standard to the required mode (in case of an input signal mismatch the module gives the Error LED indication). If the user always operates in only one standard it is advisable to use the Man mode for faster lockup. In Auto mode the VSM-6804 determines and switches to the detected line standard. This is to select between 525 and 625 line standard modes and active only if Standard Select is in Man position. This is to select between output standards NTSC and PALM. Since the incoming signal is component digital this selection is always made by the user even in the Auto mode. In the Pass mode the encoder is transparent in the vertical blanking. In the Blnk mode any luminance and chrominance data is substituted by black. (no setup in case of 525 signals.) In the Off position the chrominance content is removed from the signal in the vertical banking area, otherwise transparent. 113

Installation
Selecting V-trig (J10)

The V-trig detector circuit uses the embedded line count for 143/177 Mb/s D2 data and the vertical end of active picture information in 270 Mb/s D1 data. If this information is in error or missing, turn the V-trig detector Off. However, the control circuit will time out and operate when the V-trig is missing.
Selecting Single/Dual Bus (J11)

The control cable must be terminated even if the remote panel is not used.
If J11 is in the V position, then this module responds to control as a single video bus only. If J11 is in the V+A position, then this module and an audio module sharing the same control panel will operate as a tied video/audio router.
Connection
When using a DA mounting frame, the connectors are as follows: Output
Input Output 1 Output 2 Output 3 Output 4 Output 5 Output 6 Output 7 Output 8
It is recommended that the user terminates all unused inputs and outputs.
Input
Input 1, return isolated Input 2, return not isolated Not used Input 3, return not isolated Control in parallel with output 6 Input 4, return not isolated Control must be terminated Output 1 Output 2
Research indicates that non-isolated inputs have less common mode rejection and, as a result, shorter cable equalizing capabilities. All inputs satisfy the 650 ft (200 m) performance figure.

Adjustment
Adjustment
Three adjustments are required. To implement these, the following instructions should be carried out: 1. Monitor the output using a deserializer and digital to analog converter and a video monitor. 2. Select a D1 source, as well as 270 Mb/s standard. Adjust R63 to provide a stable picture and stable sync waveform at TP15. To set the PLL more accurately measure the voltage at TP19. 3. Adjust R63 clockwise until lock is lost; then turn R63 counterclockwise until lock is obtained and regained after removal/ replacement of the input signal. Record this voltage as VLow. 4. Set the voltage at TP19 to be VLow +0.2 Volts. 5. Select a D2 NTSC source, as well as 143 Mb/s standard. Check that this results in a stable picture and sync waveform at TP15 6. Select a D360 source, as well as 360 Mb/s standard. 7. Adjust R74 to provide a stable picture and stable sync waveform at TP15. To set the PLL more accurately, measure the voltage at TP19, adjust R74 clockwise until lock is lost, then turn R74 counter clockwise until lock is obtained and is regained after removal/ replacement of the input signal. 8. Record this voltage as VLow. 9. Set the voltage at TP19 to be VLow +0.2 Volts 10. Select a D2 PAL source, as well as 177 Mb/s standard. Check that this results in a stable picture and sync waveform at TP15. If a D360 source is not available, adjust at 177 Mb/s instead. 11. Adjust R110 to provide an output level (if GS9009 is fitted) of 800 mV.

Control Panel
The video serial routing (VSR-4041) module uses a Remote Control Panel (RCP-4x1MB). It can be located up to 2000 ft (600 m) from the routing switcher. Connection is carried out via a single coaxial cable with convenient BNC connectors. Any desired number of RCP remote control panels and routing switchers can be chained together by looping the 75W coaxial control line from switcher to switcher and/or remote control panels. RCP-4x1MB remote control panels are powered by a small wall transformer. Control panel push buttons are backlit and removable for labelling.
