When setting up the NV5128 for the first time or reconfiguring a NV5128, there are certain steps
that must be performed. It is recommended that initial installation and later reconfiguration tasks be
performed in a specific order to avoid possible complications.

Perform installation and reconfiguration tasks in the following order:

1 Mount the router in a rack. If reconfiguring, skip this step if the router is already rack mounted

and not being remounted. See

Rack Mount

on page 37.

2 Connect power, being sure to install PS6000 modules after power is connected. See

Connecting

the Router to Power

on page 38.

3 Install backplanes in the appropriate rear backplane slots. If reconfiguring, removed backplanes

and reinstall in the newly desired slots. See

Installing Backplanes

on page 40.

4 Install active cards in the appropriate front card slots. If reconfiguring, removed cards and rein-

stall in the newly desired slots. Make sure that the appropriate backplane is installed for each
active card. See

Installing Active Cards

on page 44.

5 Make connections between the source of incoming signals and the destination of outgoing sig-

nals, and the router. If reconfiguring, change signal connections to match new backplane and
active card configuration. See

Making Signal Connections

on page 50.

6 Make connections to signals acting as references for audio and video signals. If reconfiguring,

verify that all necessary reference connections are made for the signals being routed. See

Mak-

ing Reference Connections

on page 57.
