RS422 Connection

The RS-422 card allows connecting the K2 ASI Media Client to an Automation
System, using the VDCP protocol. Two serial ports are available and their pin
assignment is described in the figure below.

Supplying Power

Once you have installed your system and completed making the signal, network, and
peripheral connections:

• Plug the device end of power cable to the product's main connector(s)

• Ensure that the on/off switch is switched "off". If the product is not fitted with an

on/off switch ensure the local main supply is switched off

• Plug the power cable to the local main power supply

CAUTION: Supply power to the product with the type of power source
indicated on the marking label.

Mains Voltage Range. You can power the system computer from mains without
setting a voltage selection switch (see section Specifications for more details on the
voltage).

Mains Frequency. The product operates on either 50 Hz or 60 Hz line frequencies.

CAUTION: Never plug a supply unit which is not connected to a server.

CAUTION: To prevent damage, protect the product from power
fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating
non-interruptible power supply. This device protects the hardware from
damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes. In addition, it
allows the product to operate temporarily during a power failure.

NOTE: The power supply cord should comply with the legislation in force in the
country of installation.

CAUTION: Do not supply power to the product until all connections
