Epica DGX 32 Instruction Manual
Attaching Cable Management Bars
AMX AutoPatch cable management bars are provided for DGX SC Optical Input and Output Boards.
Caution: Do not severely bend or kink the SF fiber cable. Irreversible damage can occur. Refer to
the physical limitations (bend radius) specified for the cable by the manufacturer. The bend radius
for AMX SC terminated fiber cables is 2 inches (5 cm).
To install cable management bars:
1.
Loosen the two captive screws that hold the connector numbering plate at the top of the connectors.
2.
Remove connector numbering plate and set aside.
3.
Align the two screw holes on the end of the cable management bar with the two screw holes at the
top of the board as shown in FIG. 9. (Note that the long part of the bar is positioned to the right of
the screw holes.)
4.
Insert and tighten the two screws at the top of the cable management bar (do
not
over tighten the
screws).
5.
Insert and tighten the single screw at the bottom of the cable management bar (do
not
over tighten).
6.
Replace the connector numbering plate that was removed in Step 1.
Linking Enclosures
The Epica DGX 32 can link to another Epica DGX 32 or to most other types of AMX AutoPatch
Distribution Matrices (see the first table on the next page).
Important: The shipping boxes each have a bright yellow/green sticker that states that the unit
(enclosure) is part of a multiple-enclosure system and must be installed with the same serial
numbers.
An Epica DGX 32 enclosure uses two Ethernet (10/Base-T) ports on its CPU to link to other enclosures.
These ports are labeled Enc Link. Do
not
use the port labeled TCP/IP for linking enclosures.
Linking enclosures allows control information to pass between them. In a multiple-enclosure system,
the enclosure with a control panel or with an external controller attached receives control information
and passes on relevant information to the other enclosures via the links, as well as retrieving a control
request for success/failure from each of them.
Caution: AMX AutoPatch systems should only be linked in their own isolated networks.
If any of the linked enclosures were not part of the original system, contact technical support
(see page 40) for important information not included here.
