Configuration 

The SDI-TD-DMUX-4 is self-configuring in the sense that it will start working according to 
default factory settings once the input signals and power are applied. Signals will be routed 
straight through without swapping and SD-SDI/DVB-ASI will be detected and handled 
automatically. 

There are also configuration parameters available via DIP-switches in the front of the board 
and via the Flashlink-protocol commands from GYDA-SC. 

There are two variants of the boards. Early versions (boards with firmware revision (FW) 1.x) 
have full flexibility channel swapping and no other configuration options. Later versions 
(boards with firmware revision (FW) 2.0 and later) have more functions, but less flexibility on 
channel swapping. 

3.1

 

Newer boards (FW rev 2.0 and later) 

The DIP switches control the channel-to-stream allocation according to the below table. See 
also Figure 5 for details on setting the switches. 

Note that when GYDA-SC mode is selected, there are no limitations on how the routing is 
controlled – as opposed to when operating from DIP-switches. 

 

Switch 1 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 2 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 3 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 4 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 5 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 6 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 7 (’off’ / 0)
Switch 8 (’off’ / 0)
