Installation Manual
Introduction
The MegaPower 48+ matrix switcher/controller is a video routing system with a broad range of functionality. The unit
has a compact, wall-mount design enabling it to be installed in the most centralized location with respect to the video
inputs. The unit can also be mounted behind other equipment in the rear of a rack at 90° to conserve space for other
products or it can be rack mounted at other angles to facilitate easy cable connections.
Each MegaPower 48+ unit has the following functionality:
• 48 video input connections for cameras or domes that can be viewed and controlled using SEC-RS422, AD Manchester
and SensorNet communication protocols.
• 16 video outputs. Outputs 1-8 provide video and a text overlay with status and alarm information. Outputs 9-16
provide video without text for uses such as public monitors.
• 2 form C relay outputs.
• 16 normally open alarm contact terminals.
• A diagnostics section providing power and unit operating status and a push-button system reset switch.
• Power terminals that connect to a 24 VAC transformer for either 120 VAC or 230 VAC inputs.
• 8 RS232 ports, enabling connection to system keyboards (ADCC1100, ADCC0200, ADCC0300, AD2079, AD2088
and ADTTE Touch Trackers®), printers, PCs, auxiliaries, alarm interface units, external modems for paging functions
and an interface for video recorders.
• When used with the ADCC1100 keyboard, the system has macro programming and synchronization capability, and
can control up to 2048 video recorders.
MegaPower 48+ units can be connected together in a multi matrix configuration. By connecting a primary matrix with six
secondary matrices, a MegaPower 48+ system comprising 288 video inputs with 8 full cross point switched primary
monitors and seven additional monitor outputs on each secondary unit can be built.
