Rear Panel Description
Connectors
The rear panel connectors are summarized below and described in detail in the next
section:
P/S 1 and P/S 2 Two 3-pin grounded connectors provide AC power to the two independent power
supplies. The supplies are autosensing for 100–240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Only one connection
is required for operation, but both connectors must be plugged into AC power for
redundant power protection.
AES/EBU Digital Audio 16-Channel, 24-bit AES Input and Output on separate DB-25 connectors (Tascam pinout,
see
“Audio Connection Pinouts” on page 118 ).
Analog Audio Ch.1-8 In/Out 8 channel Balanced Analog Audio Input and Output on separate DB-25 connectors
(Tascam pinout, see
“Audio Connection Pinouts” on page 118 ). Audio A/D and D/A
converters are 24 bit.
MADI Fiber 64 channel MADI input and output, on separate Multi-Mode fiber connectors.
MADI BNC 64 channel MADI input and output, on separate BNC connectors.
GPI The GPI DB-15 connector provides connection to external equipment or circuits via an
isolated TTL-compatible interface. Four GPI inputs and four outputs are available. See
“GPI Pinouts” on page 117 .
Using the REMOTE menu group, you can program the actions of the GPI inputs and
outputs individually. Contact closures on the inputs can trigger a wide variety of FS1-X
functions. Alarms or loss of video can trigger the GPI outputs.
10/100/1000 LAN This RJ45 connector provides an Ethernet 10/100/1000 port for connection directly to a
computer or to a LAN through an Ethernet hub or switch.
SDI Fiber In/Out (optional) Two optional Single-Mode Optical Fiber SFP modules support single- or dual-channel
Fiber Input and/or Output. 3G/HD/SD SDI protocol is supported. Only AJA Optical Fiber
SFP modules are supported—use of other manufacturer’s modules is not supported and
may void warranty.
