GUIDE TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

4.2.2 Operation

Connect each power supply to a power source using the supplied power cords.

In normal operation, both supplies should be switched ON (power switch on the power supply unit set to ). A green status lamp will illuminate on the power supply unit (see figure 4.2.1.1).

4.2.3Ventilation

Each power supply has its own integral ventilation fan. The power supply fans also serve to cool the controller module, which is located immediately in front of them in the frame. Additional cooling is not required.

4.3 Module installation and replacement

Modules are installed and removed from the front of the unit. The unit must be turned off before any module may be replaced. Although the cards can’t be damaged by a live extraction or insertion, this practice is not supported, and may cause malfunctioning of the card. When the unit is turned back on, the following boot-up procedure occurs:

-after a 5 second delay, the video windows appear at the output;

-after a 120 second delay, the background elements (tallies, VU meters, source ID, etc.) appear and are functional.

If a replacement module has obsolete firmware, the controller will update it automatically.

If the replacement module’s firmware is more recent, only the recognized feature set will be used by the controller.

When the installation of the module also involves installing a rear connector panel, that must be done from the rear of the panel, and should be done first, before the module itself is installed. The sequence of operations should be:

-remove the old module

-remove the old connector panel, if necessary

-install the new connector panel, if necessary

-install the new module.
