6.5 RS422/Timecode
The RS422/Timecode is a dual-purpose board depending on the switch settings. The
RS422/Timecode routing range consists of three modules
MODULES
9600
: 128 Port (RS422) / 128x128 (Timecode)
9601
: 64 Port (RS422) / 64x64 (Timecode)
9602
: 32 Port (RS422) / 32x32 (Timecode)
The 128, 64 and 32 modules take up 1, 2 and 4 rear panel positions respectively.
6.5.1
RS422 Routing 9600 Range
The RS422 routing modules have been developed in three different sizes, each plugging into the
appropriate rear panel.
The rear panels use high density connectors (50-way D-Types) and a breakout panel has been
designed to fit in the rear of the bay.
When a device is connected the same cable connections are used whether it is a controller or a
machine, therefore the routing module configures the ports depending on how the devices are
being used. In addition, the routing module supports both distributive (broadcast) and non-
distributive (1-1) routing.
