2 Installation
2.1 Unpacking
Make sure the following items have been shipped with your KMV-3901/3911. If any of the following items are
missing, contact your distributor or Miranda Technologies Inc.
• KMV-3911 or KMV-3901 3Gbps/HD/SD multi-viewer card
• KMV-3911-8X2-3DRP (see figure 2.1) or KMV-3901-8X2-3DRP (see figure 2.2) rear panel
2.2 Installation in the Densité Frame
The KMV-3901/3911 and its associated rear connector rear panel must be mounted in a Densité 3 frame or
a Densité 3 mini frame.
• It is not necessary to switch off the frame’s power when installing or removing the card.
See the Densité 3 frame manual or the Densité 3 mini frame manual for detailed instructions on installing
cards and their associated rear panels.
Note: A Densité frame housing a KMV-3901/3911 multi-viewer card must have a controller card (Densité
CPU-ETH2 Enhanced Ethernet Controller Card) with firmware version 2.0.4 or later. A controller with an
earlier version of the firmware cannot provide a time reference to the multi-viewer card.
2.3 Rear Connector Panel
The KMV-3901/3911 requires a dual-slot-width rear panel:
• Eight 3G/HD/SD inputs (BNC connectors). Optional inputs 5–8 are available only in the case of 8 × 2,
and 8 × 1 models.
• Two 3G/HD/SD multi-viewer outputs (HDMI connectors). Optional MV OUT 2 is available only in the
case of 4 × 2, 8 × 2 cards.
• Two HD-SDI monitoring outputs (DIN 1.0/2.3 connectors)
• One DB-26 connector for GPI I/O lines (8 in / 2 out) and RS-422 control
(Miranda’s NSH26M wiring terminal adapter can be used to connect the GPI lines to this connector)
• One RJ-45 for data transfer over Ethernet
With the double-width rear panel installed in a Densité-3 frame, the KMV-3901/3911 must be installed in the
right-most of the two slots covered by the panel in order to mate with the panel’s connectors.
In a Densité 3 mini frame, the card must be placed in the bottom slot.
If it is placed in the wrong slot, the front panel LED will flash red. Move the card to the other slot for correct
operation. No damage will result to the card if this occurs.
