6.1. 

SELECTING WHETHER LOCAL FAULTS WILL BE MONITORED 
BY THE GLOBAL FRAME STATUS 

The FRAME STATUS jumper J1, located at the front of the module, determines whether local faults (as 
shown by the Local Fault indicator) will be connected to the 7700FR frame's global status bus. 
 

FRAME STATUS: 

To monitor faults on this module with the frame status indicators (on the power 
supply’s FRAME STATUS LED's and on the Frame's Fault Tally output) install this 
jumper in the On position. 

 
 

When this jumper is installed in the Off position local faults on this module will not 
be monitored. 

 

6.2. 

SELECTING THE INPUT TERMINATION 

The input termination may be set via card jumper J5 to either 75 Ohms (default) or Hi-Z (34k Ohms). Set it 
to Hi-Z when using the passive loop thru BNC connector to loop the signal through several device inputs. 
 

"

 

To terminate the signal (for non-looping applications), ensure that this jumper (J5) 
is installed in the 75Ohms position. 

 

6.3. 

SELECTING THE INPUT AC/DC COUPLING  

The input may be AC or DC (default) coupled into the input-circuitry using jumper J4. Use AC coupling in 
applications when the input signal has a large (>2V) DC level. In some non-video applications that do not 
have DC information (i.e. digital AES audio), AC coupling can be used to remove any DC level that may 
have built up in its transmission. The DC Restoring (clamp) circuitry will work with either AC or DC 
coupling in video applications.
