Rear Panel Connections
Mains Power
Power is applied via a standard three-pin IEC male socket. Mains voltages between 85V and
264V AC and frequencies between 47 and 63Hz are accepted without adjustment. A 2A, 5 x
20mm SB fuse is used. The Earth pin MUST be connected to ensure safety.
Remote Control
The unit can be controlled remotely via Ethernet using the Sonifex SCi software. Using
remote control allows the user to monitor the status of the unit and also set various options
and settings.
The Ethernet port is connected using a standard RJ-45 connector on the rear of the panel.
It is a 10/100Mbps link. The unit is shipped with DHCP enabled to allow the unit to be plug
and play if the users local area network has a DHCP server. If one is not available on the
network the unit can be set to use a static address set through via the front panel. This static
address is set to 192.168.0.100. If DHCP is not required then this can be disabled.
The Network connectors pin assignations are as follows:
Network Connector (RJ-45)
Pin No. Function
1 Transmit Data (Positive)
2 Transmit Data (Negative)
3 Receive Data (Positive)
4 No connection
5 No connection
6 Receive Data (Negative)
7 No connection

Metadata
Metadata is used by Dolby E and Dolby Digital encoders and decoders to configure
and control the encode and decode process. Encoders may require that this metadata
information come from an external source, while the decoders output this information.
Metadata is normally transmitted as a serial RS-485 link, but can also be embedded within
the vertical anciliary space of a video stream (SMPTE 2020). The RB-VHEDD8 and RB-
VHDDD8 units makes use of both these methods of metadata transport.
