User Manual

DIP switches 

The four DIP switches are not used. Check that all four switches are in the “up” position. 

Engineering controls and connectors 

These control and connectors are for Grass Valley Engineering use only.

There is a push button on the front edge of the board. This is for engineering use only.

There are other connectors on the front edge of the module, see Figure 2-3. These are for 
Engineering use only and should not be used. 

REMOTE

 

CMD OK

Yellow

Remote 
Command OK

Receiving messages from a remote expansion router controller.

(I.e. a control module in expanded router frame linked to this frame).

Off

 - Router expansion not used. (relevant to Sirius 840 or 850 routers)

Flashing

 - Receiving information and working correctly. 

  (Only used for a Sirius 850 router system expanded to a second frame.)

Note:

If both the “REMOTE CMD ERR” LED is flashing

and the “REMOTE CMD OK” LED is also flashing, 

it suggests a mismatch in the configuration of the router controller.

Check the controller configuration

REMOTE

 

CMD ERR

Red

Remote 
Command Error

Off

 - Expansion not used. 

  (Used for Sirius 840 and Sirius 850 routers only.)

Off

 - No router expansion to a second frame.

Flashing

 - Command message communication from remote expansion 

router controller is corrupt or message has not been received.

Note:

If both the “REMOTE CMD ERR” LED is flashing

and the “REMOTE CMD OK” LED is also flashing, 

it suggests a mismatch in the configuration of the router controller.

Check the controller configuration.

Note:

A communications error could be caused by a hardware failure or 
incorrect module insertion. 

Check module is inserted correctly.

Note:

A communications error could be caused by a hardware failure or 
incorrect cable insertion. 

Check the four RJ45 connections between the two router frames are 
fitted correctly. (See Sirius 800 User Manual, section 12, Expansion.)
