3 Modules inside the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio
Router
In order to get an overview of the parts that form the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router
this chapter will highlight some of the main components.
GYDA-VX 5 (not shown in picture) Multicon VX-MOD Power Supplies X-point Modules
3.1 How to access the modules
All active modules are accessible through the front of the router frame. If service or
inspection is required, open the unit from the front. The door may be removed for easy
access to the modules.
An important feature of all the modules in the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router frame
is that they are all hot-swappable. The user does not have to turn off the power in order to
remove/reinstall/replace a module with active components inside the Modular AES/EBU
Digital Audio Router.
When a board is hot-swapped and the reset button pushed, the router will restore
the current setting within seconds.
3.2 How to configure the router and modules
Setting up and configuring the router and its modules is done with the Nevion Configurator
software. The Nevion Configurator is shipped with the router, or could be downloaded from
http://www.nevion.com .
For further instructions on router configuration, please see the online documentation in the
Nevion Configurator.
When the size of the router is changed by adding or removing of Main X-point
modules and/or I/O X-point modules, the Nevion Configurator must be
reconfigured to fit to the new router size.
3.3 Power Supply module
Each Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router frame comes with either one or two power
supply modules. One power supply is standard, dual redundant power supply is an option.
The first power supply module is inserted in the left slot (A), and the second is inserted in the
right slot (B).
