Connecting the ASI Output Cables
The optional ASI Module has four ASI ports. Ports one and two are output ports. Ports three
and four are unused in an ASI output application.
Because the output ports are redundant, you can connect one port to a modulator or
remultiplexer and the other to a backup modulator or backup remultiplexer. The cable type
you select depends on the distance between the encoder and the output device. The ports
use a 75-ohm BNC coaxial connector.
NOTE:
The maximum length of ASI cable is approximately 900 feet; there is no minimum specified.
To connect the ASI output cables:
Connect an ASI cable with 75-ohm BNC coaxial connector from ASI Port 1 or Port 2 to an
appropriate output device.
Connecting the ASI Input Cables
The optional ASI Module has four ASI ports. Ports one, two, three, and four are input ports.
Connect one or both ASI input ports to external devices.
The cable type you select depends on the distance between the encoder and the input
device. The ports use a 75-ohm BNC coaxial connector.
NOTE:
The maximum length of ASI cable is approximately 900 feet; there is no minimum specified.
To connect the ASI input cables:
Connect an ASI cable with 75-ohm BNC coaxial connector from ASI port three or port four to
an appropriate input device.
