Attaching Cables
When attaching digital video input and output cables, refer to the sheet labeled “AutoPatch Optima
Connector Guide” that shipped with the system. The sheet shows where to attach each cable on the rear
of each enclosure. Follow the sheet exactly; the system was programmed at the factory to operate only as
indicated on the sheet. For multi-enclosure systems, each enclosure will be numbered (e.g., “Chassis 1
of 3”) on a label located on the left side (near the power receptacle).
The input connectors (white BNCs) are on the left side of each board, and the output connectors (black
BNCs) are on the right side. Input and output connectors are numbered separately. The number of BNC
connectors depends on the I/O configuration. The enclosure may also contain I/O boards for additional
signal types.
To connect digital video inputs and outputs:
1.
Fasten the cables onto the input and output BNC connectors (FIG. 87).
Make sure the SD-SDI and HD-SDI digital video cables are connected to the correct BNC connectors.
Digital video boards look identical to each other and to the standard video, wideband video (300 MHz),
500 MHz, and HV sync boards, but the “AutoPatch Optima Connector Guide” identifies them.
To terminate connectors (for optimal performance):
1.
Add 75-ohm termination connectors to all unused outputs (see FIG. 88).
Note
:
For instructions on installing or replacing an SD-SDI or HD-SDI board, see “Appendix D
