Please refer to
Figure-2b
on the following page to familiarize yourself with the rear panel features of the
RM-2440
unit. The
following sections describe these features and are referenced, by letter, to
Figure-2b
. See
Figure-2c
on page
12
for a top view of
the
RM-2440
showing rear panel connector clearance dimensions.
Note about options: Figure-2b
shows each of the two optional
SDI Input Modules
(
RMSDI-1
and
RMSDI-2
) installed in
channels
1
and
2
and
no
option installed in channels
3
and
4
. The
SDI Input Modules
may be installed in any combination (one per
display). Options are selected for monitoring by setting the associated
A/B Source Select Switch
on the front panel (
Item 4
, page
8
) to the
B
position. For each section with an
SDI Input Module
installed, the
CVBS Loop-Through Connector
(
Item C
) will
output
CVBS
signals as converted from the
SDI
input. In any I/O section with an
SDI Input Module
option installed, the
B
CVBS
Input
BNC connector should NOT be used, and it is recommended that it be covered with a connector cap to prevent its use.
Rear Panel Features
Section 2: Operation
Termination Switch (1A - 4A, 1B - 4B)
This switch terminates the
CVBS Input Connector
as required by your configuration. If you supply downstream
equipment from the
CVBS Loop-Through Connector
(
Item C
), then set this switch to the
Hi-Z
position. If
not
, set
this switch to the
75
Ω
Ω
Ω
Ω
Ω
position.
CVBS Input (IN) Connector (1A - 4A, 1B - 4B)
CVBS
video signals may be connected here.
NTSC
or
PAL
standards are accommodated automatically. If signals are connected
at both the
A
and
B
inputs within the same I/O section, use the
A/B Source Select Switch
(
Item 4
, page
8
) to select between the
two.
Note:
If an
SDI Input Option
module is installed in a
B
section, do NOT use the associated
B
CVBS
input.
CVBS Loop-Through (OUT) Connector (1A - 4A, 1B - 4B)
Signal-through connections to downstream equipment are supplied at these BNC connectors. If you supply downstream
equipment from these connectors, ensure that you set the
Termination Switch
(
Item A
) according to your configuration.
Note that if an
SDI Input Module
(
Item G
) is installed in the same I/O section, this connector outputs a
CVBS
signal as
converted
from the
SDI Input Connector
(
Item Gc
).
Option Connector (1-4)
This
DE9
(9-pin) female connector allows you easily install an optional
SDI Input Module
(
Item G
).
Tally Control Connector
This 25-pin subminiature female “D” connector allows you to use the four front panel
Tally Indication LED
s (
Item 3
,
page
10
). Full connection instructions are described on pages
14
and
15
.
Power Connector
Attach the supplied 110/220-12V external power supply between this connector and mains power.
Optional SDI Input Modules
(RMSDI-1 and RMSDI-2)
There are two models of optional
SDI Input Module
; the
RMSDI-1
and
RMSDI-2
. They are identical except that the
RMSDI-1
does
not
feature a
SDI Output Connector
(
Item Gb
) and must use the
525/625 Select Switch
(
Item Ge
) to
select the
NTSC/PAL
format of the input signal (the
RMSDI-2
does this automatically).
Note:
See
Figure-2c
on page
12
for depth clearance dimensions of
RM-2440
when
RMSDI
option modules are installed.
CVBS Output (Converted From SDI Input) Connector
When an optional
RMSDI-1
or
RMSDI-2
module is installed, this connector outputs
CVBS
signals as
converted
from the
SDI Input Connector
(
Item Gc
). If this output is NOT used, set the associated
Termination Switch
(
Item A
) to
75
Ω

Ω.
SDI Output Connector
(RMSDI-2 Only)
SDI
signal-through connections to down-stream equipment are supplied at this BNC connector. This connector
supplies a reclocked replica of the
SDI
input signal.

SDI Lock Indication LED (GREEN)
When a valid (and locked)
SDI
signal is received at the
SDI Input Connector
(
Item Gc
) this LED lights GREEN.
525/625 (NTSC/PAL) Select Switch
(RMSDI-1 Only)
On the
RMSDI-1
(only), this switch is used to manually select for
NTSC
(525 line) or
PAL
(625 line) input signals.
Set the switch to the RIGHT to select
PAL
(625 lines), to the LEFT to select
NTSC
(525 lines).
