Note Touchscreen,

(20)=20m, (25)=25m, (48)=48m (48)m and (80)m options only converts above to female connectors

a) Front Panel Cables – Locate the two MDR–MDR front panel cables and connect them between the Centuri Control card and t he console interface panel as shown opposite. Although there are three connectors at both the Centuri and the console end, only connectors 1 and 2 are used.

These cables are symmetrical, having the same connectors at each end.

Note: The front panel cables are only supplied in 16m, 48m or 80m lengths. This is due to a timing requirement for the high speed serial data. Do not attempt to shorten these cables. The connectors on these cables are not removable.

b)Network Cable – The Centuri processor uses an RJ 45 Ethernet network to communicate with the C100 console, Stageboxes and NetBridge. The console has a built-in 4-way Ethernet repeater.

Connect the ethernet lead between the Centuri CPU card and any of the four ‘Ether’ sockets beneath the console.

If Netbridge is specified then a second RJ45 Ethernet lead will be supplied with the system. This lead is connected between the console and the ‘SSL Network’ connector on the NetBridge rear panel.

c)Serial Cables – Three RS422 serial cables are supplied for the installation. These connect the CPU card in the Centuri to the touch screen, the bitpad (keyboard trackball) and the keyboard (if fitted).

The processor ca rd is f itted with a 62 -pin conn ector for the eig ht ser ial ports. An adapt er lead which breaks-out the 62-pin connector to eight off 9-way D-type male connectors is provided. Connect the three serial leads as s hown in the diagram opposite ensuring that the co rrect ‘TTY’ connector is used in each case. Note that 9-way D socket–socket adapters will be necessary at the Centuri end.

d)Video Cable – There are three video outputs available on the CPU card. Video 1 and Video 3 are static background displays. Video 2 is used for the Centre section touch-screen display.

Note that the picture output from video 2 is rotated 90° so the Centre Section touchscreen can be used in ‘portrait’ orientation. If for any reason you wish to duplicate the video 2 output, then any monitor used will have to be turned onto its side to display correctly.

Connect the video cable as shown in the diagram opposite. The cable is male-male so does not have to be run in a particular direction.

Note: SSL does not recommend that the supplied video cable be extended. Doing so may reduce the video quality as the cable is matched to function over long runs; these cables are of a high quality individually screened type. Longer cables are available from SSL.
