Input and Output Processing
The input section has a parallel input path from the passive rear input
module for SD (standard definition) and HD (high definition) signal equal-
izing and reclocking. The input section can also bypass the signal through
the HD EQ and HD Reclocker directly to the output amplifiers. The output
amplifiers drive eight equal-phase outputs.
Microprocessor and Input Selector
The primary purpose of the microprocessor is to provide remote control
and monitoring capability for the 2041RDA. It receives signal present,
signal lock, and speed detection signals from the equalizer and reclocker
circuits. Using this information, local jumper settings, and remote control
commands, the microprocessor selects the internal signal path and gives
feedback through the LEDs and remote control bus.
