OVERVIEW OF NET-164 WIRING CONNECTIONS
The drawing below shows a sample connection scenario for the NET-164. Video and audio sources
(VCRs, DVD players, satellite or studio feeds, character generator, etc.) are connected to the 16
NET-164 inputs, while the NET-164 outputs are connected to the desired destination equipment
(such as modulators). PC configuration and control is done over a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet
connection.
NOTE:
In order to use WinNET software, you must connect your PC to the NET-164 via an
Ethernet cable.
The NET-164 has two DV
ply
connectors to control TASCAM® DV-D6500 DVD players, which allow
cueing of DVDs by Title: Chapter. VCRs and DVD players are controlled through the use of
LEIGHTRONIX PRO-BUS interfaces, sold separately for many brands and models of professional
video equipment and available with infrared, mini-jack, and multi-pin connectors. The PRO-BUS
interfaces loop together so the user does not have to separately connect each PRO-BUS to the event
controller.
The NET-164 has configurable fallback inputs. If valid video is lost on an output and a fallback time
has been set, the NET-164 will switch that output to the fallback input when video has been absent for
the entered time. Place a continuous source of video such as a character generator, bulletin board,
or satellite feed on your fallback input(s) to act as the fallback in case of source equipment
malfunction.
