Rear Panel Features
Section 2: Operation
Please refer to Figure-2b on the following page to familiarize yourself with the rear panel features of the MON3-3 unit. The following sections
describe these features and are referenced, by letter, to Figure-2b.
Note about options:
In order to illustrate and describe the features of each option available for the MON3-3, the rear panel example in
Figure-2b shows one of each of three options installed in channels 1 through 3. The available options (MSDI-1, MAV-1, RGB-1) may be
installed in any combination (one per display) in from one to three of the displays. All installed options are selected for monitoring by setting
the associated A/B switch on the front panel (Item 5, page 10) to the "B" position. The type of option installed in each section is indicated
by a marked checkbox in the upper right of each input section. When operating, refer only to the silk-screen text (above each installed
feature) that is lined up with the marked checkbox. Note that in the modular chassis used for the MON3-3 model, the forth input sections (4A
and 4B) are never used and the connector holes are covered with plugs.

Power Connector
Attach a standard IEC-320 power cord between this connector and mains power. The front panel Power LED (Item 1, page 10)
will glow green to indicate that an operating voltage is present.
Tally Control Connector
This 25-pin subminiature female “D” connector allows you to use the four front panel Tally indicator LEDs (Item 3, page 10). Full
connection instructions are described on page 16.
Display Monitor ON/OFF Switch (1A - 4A)
Use this switch to turn the power on or off to the associated monitor display.
Term/Lift (Termination) Switch (1A - 4A)
This switch terminates the
IN CVBS
connector as required by your configuration. If you supply downstream equipment from
the CVBS Loop-Through connector (Item F), then set this switch to the
LIFT
(
DOWN
) position. If
no
downstream equipment
is connected, set this switch to the
TERM
(
UP
) position.
CVBS Input Connector (1A - 4A)
Connect analog CVBS video signals to this female BNC connector. NTSC or PAL standards are accommodated automatically.
Place the front panel Input (I/P) Selector Switch (Item 4, page 10) DOWN to select the standard CVBS inputs (
A
) or UP to select
the installed option inputs (
B
).
CVBS Loop-Through Connector (1A - 4A)
Signal-through connections to downstream equipment are supplied at this BNC connector. If you supply downstream equipment
from this connector, ensure that you set the
TERM/LIFT
toggle switch (Item D) according to your configuration. See Item D for
settings.
CBAR (Color Bar) Switch
(MSDI-1 Option Required)
When the MSDI-1 option is installed, this switch controls a color bar generator associated with each monitor. To view the selected
input signal for this section, place this switch in the

position. To activate the color bar generator, place this switch to the
UP
position.
CVBS Output (Converted From SDI Input) Connector
(MSDI-1 Option Required)
When the MSDI-1 option is installed, this switch controls a color bar generator associated with each monitor. To view the selected
input signal for this section, place this switch in the
DOWN
position. To activate the color bar generator, place this switch to the
UP
position.
SDI Loop-Through Connector
(MSDI-1 Option Required)
When the MSDI-1 option is installed, 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 Input Connector
(MSDI-1 Option Required)
When the MSDI-1 option is installed, connect SDI signals to this female BNC connector, which is terminated at 75
Ω.
RED/GREEN/BLUE Input Connectors
(RGB-1 Option Required)
When the RGB-1 option is installed, these three female BNC connectors accept standard RED, GREEN, and BLUE analog video
signals. Each connector is marked with the color it should receive. Video sync is on the GREEN input signal.
