The  Manager contains 16 numbered outputs. Connect the first output to the 
first  Bracket in line. This will be fed the first pixel information from the mapping 
in the S-Drive II Video Processor. This connection is made using a shielded CAT-5 cable. 
Connect output to the second Bracket in line, continuing until the maximum of 16 
outputs are used. If you wish to connect further brackets, then a second  
Manager will be required. 

5)

 

Using a compatible fibre optic cable, connect the output of the S-Drive II to the input of 
the  Manager on the right hand side of the unit. These connectors are keyed, so 
need to be inserted the correct way around, but they simply push in to lock. To remove 
them, pull gently on the side of the connector only, and it should release. The S-Drive II 
will normally sit at your video control position and therefore the use of fibre optic cable 
allows the fast transmission of data across longer distances. 

6)

 

Should you need to connect further  Manager boxes, they can be daisy chained 
using further fibre optic cables, connecting the output of the first, to the input of the 
next, and so on. 

7)

 

Connect your desired configuration of  Lines to the  Brackets. The 
connection between these two elements is via a keyed 4 pin connector. Ensure that 
both connector components are correctly aligned and push them together. The male 
side of the connector has a locking ring which needs to be turned a quarter turn 
clockwise until you feel it physically ‘click’ into place and will not turn further. Once 
‘clicked’  a firm connection has been made. To undo these connectors, turn the locking 
ring anti-clockwise a quarter turn before attempting to pull the connector apart. 
Sequential  Lines can be connected using the same method. 

8)

 

Each  Line has a tab at the first and last sphere. These are for the specific 
purpose of attaching a secondary safety wire, and must be used at the point where a 
 Line connects to a  Bracket. Further safety cables should be used where 
systems are placed above people or objects which may be damaged. 

9)

 

Connect mains power to the  Manager, PSU and S-Drive II units via their power 
inputs. Turn on all units via their onboard switch. 

10)

 

Connect a DVI-D source to the input of the S-Drive II and configure the S-Drive II for your 
desired layout. For further information, consult the S-Drive II user manual. 

 

Once configured, your  system will play back the signal being fed and distributed via the 
S-Drive II.
