Installing the SDI Ouput Card

The SDI output card may be installed in the VSC 700/900 by following the instructions and illustrations shown below.

1.Remove the power cable from the VSC and from the power source.

Do not open the cover of the scan converter without unplugging the power cord.

2.If the VSC scan converter is rack mounted, detach the input and output cables from it and remove the unit from the rack. If the VSC is not rack mounted, you do not need to remove the input and output cables.

3.Remove 14 screws from the top and sides of the cover (figure 1) of the VSC 900. The VSC 700 has 12 top and side cover screws plus 9 rear panel screws and 2 jack screw nuts (RS-232/422 connector).

4.Remove the cover by slightly lifting each side alternately until the cover is free.

Reverse this procedure to reinstall the cover after the SDI connector card has been installed.

CAUTION

Do not touch any switches or other electronic components inside the VSC. Doing so could damage the scan converter. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage IC chips even though you cannot feel it. You must be electrically grounded. A grounding wrist strap is recommended.
