MAXX 2400 Owners Manual

Gigabit Ethernet Port ( 7 )
A Gigabit Ethernet port is provided on the MAXX 2400. The NET 1 port is intended for external
transfer of program content between video servers. The server supports MXF file transfer, for
backup and content interchange between products from different manufacturers, as well as file
import in various formats from desktop editors. The NET 1 port is also used for remote control
using the optional Remote Workstation software. The NET 2 (8) port is reserved for future use and
is not active. Use only the NET 1 port.

LTC Time Code Input ( 12,20 )
An LTC time code input is provided for Channel 1 (12 in Figure 2) and Channel 3 (20 in Figure 2) .
The LTC input provides a >10k ohm termination. This input may be selected by means of the On-
Screen user interface and recorded as a time code reference. This input may be selected by means
of the On-Screen user interface and used as a start time reference. Note that time code is not
actually recorded, the time code read at the start of recording is captured. When the clip is played
back, the time code (in display, VITC and LTC outputs) starts from the captured time and proceeds
continuously.

LTC Time Code Output ( 16 )
An LTC time code output is provided on the LTC OUT BNC connector. It may be selected by
means of the On-Screen user interface to output time code from any of the four video channels
during playback. The LTC output has a source impedance of <5 ohms.

Keyboard ( 1 )
Attach the alphanumeric keyboard to the purple 5-pin KEYBD connector to control the server and
manage clips with the On-Screen graphic user interface. Note that the server will only recognize
the keyboard if it is attached before power up.

Mouse ( 2 )
A two-button scroll mouse is provided with the MAXX 2400. Plug the mouse into the green 5-pin
MOUSE port. Do not use the USB ports, even if the supplied mouse is USB capable. Note that
the server will only recognize the mouse if it is attached before power up.

Monitor ( 6 )
A VESA-compliant computer monitor may be connected to the 15-pin VGA video port. The MAXX
2400 resolution is fixed at 1024 x 768 pixels, with a refresh rate of 72 Hz. This is best-viewed on
17-inch or larger monitors. 360 Systems does not provide monitors for the server. Do not use
older monitors that are not VESA compliant. The server may not start properly if an unsuitable
monitor is connected.

Serial Port ( 5 )

USB Ports ( 3 )
The system board USB ports are not used. Make no connection.

SHUTDOWN command on the On-Screen user interface.
