INSTALLATION
This installation should be made by qualified service personnel
and should conform to all local codes. Safeguards must be
taken to avoid unintentional operation by employees and
maintenance personnel working about the premises, by falling
objects, by customers, by building vibration, and by similar
causes.
Mounting
AD1650B systems are normally supplied for standard 19-inch
rack mounting and have a rack height of 5 1/4 inches. These
models have an “R” suffix to the model number (e.g.,
AD1650BR32-8). Single bay systems which are available for
desktop use have a “D” suffix to the model number (e.g.,
AD1650BD32-8). The system layout is designed for ease of
installation and minimum interconnecting cable length.
In multiple bay configurations, carefully identify the various
bays before mounting. The video inputs should be located
near the top of the racks while the video outputs should be
located near the bottom, as illustrated in the Typical System
Configurations section at the end of this manual.
When the system configuration requires more than one rack,
the AD1650B bays should be mounted in side-by-side racks as
illustrated in the Typical System Configurations.
For proper ventilation and ease of service, allow at least 3 feet
(1 meter) from the rear of the racks to any wall.
Power Sources
Models with an “AD” prefix to the model number
(AD1650BD8-2, AD1650BR96-8, etc.,) are configured for use
with a 120VAC, 50/60Hz primary power source. Models with
an “ADE” or “ADK” prefix (ADE1650BD8-2, AD1650BR96-
8, etc.,) are configured for a 230VAC, 50Hz primary power
source. All models are supplied with pendant 3-wire cords and
plugs for mating to the primary source outlet.
DO NOT PHYSICALLY CONNECT
EQUIPMENT TO THE POWER SOURCE
UNTIL READY TO “POWER UP”
Read the section on POWERING UP (Section 4) before
applying power to any units.
CONNECTIONS
Note: Internal jumper switch settings on the
modules should be made before system connections
are started (see SETUP, Section 2).
All AD1650B system connections are made on the rear panels
of the bays or modules. Be certain that all connections are
completed properly before applying power.
Each installation should be made in a planned and orderly
manner. Confirm the operation of each piece of equipment as
early as possible during the installation procedure. It is much
easier to remove a few temporary terminations or connections
after a confirmation check than it is to disconnect and re-wire a
large number of “permanent” connections.
To facilitate maintenance and service problems, mark all input
and output cables.
Power and Data Interconnections
Inter-bay power and data cables are supplied as required for
each configuration. Depending on the functions of the bay, the
power panels supplied with each bay have different
configurations and connector jack designations. See the
descriptions of Power and Data Interconnections in each of the
System Configuration descriptions, Section 3.
Video Connections
All video connections should be made using a high-grade, 75-
ohm, RG-59U video cable (Belden 8241 or equivalent) with
BNC connectors. All video outputs must be terminated in 75
ohms at the last unit on the run. Intermediate units must be set
to Hi-Z. Outputs which are improperly terminated will not
display the system-generated alphanumerics and the resulting
pictures will be of poor quality.
Inter-bay power, data, and video connections for several
different AD1650B System Configurations are described in
Section 3 of this manual. Illustrations of these configurations
and system bay interconnections are shown in the Typical
System Connections, pages C-8 through C-13.

Note
When using interbay power and data cables,
connect ground (black lead wire with lug) to
each bay with a screw.
