Cabling

Loop-through Input

Connect an input source to one of the loop-through input connectors, J9 or
J10 (see

Figure 3

). The 8990ARC input accepts SMPTE 259M 8 or 10-bit

component serial digital video. Terminate the unused connector into 75

if

the signal is not looped to other equipment.

Figure 3. 8990ARC Input, Output and GPI Connectors

Outputs

The 8990ARC provides four 75

component video output BNCs (J1

through J4).

The destination equipment should have a 75

input impedance or loop

through inputs that are terminated into 75

.

General Purpose Interface (GPI) Connections

BNCs J7 and J8 accept GPI control signals that select one of four user-
defined preset settings that are stored using the onboard configuration con-
trols or the remote GUI controls. The GPI can be used with a user-provided
panel with four latching momentary switches and appropriate resistors.
No tally is provided from the module (see

GPI Control

on page 12

).
