Effects Send Matrix (Cell A11)  
The Effects Send Matrix option provides a method of integrating digital  
effects devices into the switcher mix/ effects system. Up to two send  
channels can be used to route the A video, key 1, or key 2 from an M/ E to  
and from an external digital effects system.  
This option comes in the form of an Effects Send Matrix Module which  
installs in the front switcher frame bay.  
Secondary Wipe Generators  
An optional Secondary Wipe Generator for both Mix/ Effects provides a  
second wipe pattern for each of the M/ E systems. With this option  
installed, two independent wipe patterns are allowed within each M/ E.  
The output from the Secondary Wipe Generator can be mixed or non-  
additively mixed with the output from the primary wipe generator to  
create novel wipe patterns.  
This option also allows the Preset wipe pattern to differ from the transition  
wipe pattern. It can also be used as an additional mask source and a matte  
generator modulator within each M/ E.  
The Secondary Wipe Generator Modules are sub-modules which mount  
onto the Mix/ Wipe Modules in each M/ E.

Physical Description  
Physical Description  
Model 2200 Series electronic circuitry is contained on circuit modules in the  
switcher frame, effects frame, and control panel.  
In this manual and in other related documents, the circuit modules will be  
referred to by the names and assembly numbers printed on them.  
Control Panel  
The control panel is the operator interface for the Model 2200 system and  
provides all operator controls for the switcher and effects systems.  
Through the control panel, the operator performs all actions via  
mechanical buttons and controls, or through software controlled menus  
and soft button adjustments. The control panel provides the data links to  
both Frames.  
Switcher Frame  
The switcher frame is a large rack-mounted unit, see Figure 1-3, that houses  
all of the signal processing modules along with some control processor  
modules.  
The Head-of-State (HOS) processor and all M/ E processors reside on two  
Control Processor modules in Bay A (front bay) of the frame. Control  
Processor 1 contains the HOS processor which supervises the state of the  
switcher, handles communication with the control panel and controls the  
video hardware. The M/ E 1 processor also resides on this module.  
The Control Processor 2 contains the circuitry for communication with the  
editor, tally expansion and other remote control. The M/ E 2 processor is on  
this module.  
Since each M/ E has its own processor, failure of the HOS processor does  
not shut down the entire switcher. Individual M/ Es can continue to  
operate independently, although in a degraded capacity (cuts, mixes and  
fade- to-black continue to operate).  
The control panel communicates with the switcher frame over two RS-422  
data links, one per M/ E. Both of the links is contained within a single cable  
that may be up to 1000 feet long.

Section 2 — Installation  
WARNING  
Electrical potential is still applied to some internal components even when  
the power switch/breaker is in the off position.To prevent electrical shock  
when working on this equipment, disconnect the AC line cord from the AC  
source before working on any internal components. A residual voltage may  
be present immediately after unplugging the system due to large power  
supply capacitors discharging. Wait thirty seconds to allow capacitors to  
discharge before working on the system.  
WARNING  
The switcher frame weighs approximately 175lbs. (67 Kg.) when fully  
configured. Provide appropriate equipment to support the frame during  
installation.  
Do not lift the control panel by the lid.The lid could open causing the unit to  
fall creating a hazard to personnel and/or damage to the equipment.  
WARNING  
The Switcher Frame Power Supply assembly exhibits high leakage (fault)  
currents due to the EMI suppression filter system.This power supply chassis  
must be connected to earth ground via the ground wire provided in the AC  
input cord. An additional ground lug is provided on the rear of the power  
supply chassis for supplementary grounding purposes.  
CAUTION  
To avoid static damage to sensitive electronic devices, protect the Model 2200  
Digital Switcher from static discharge. Avoid handling switcher modules in a high  
static environment. Touch the switcher frame before you remove any modules.  
This helps ensure that any potential difference between your body and the frame  
is dissipated. If you handle the modules or make any repairs to them use a  
grounding strap and grounded equipment.

Section 2 — Installation  
Switcher Frame Installation  
NOTE: The switcher frame must be installed before either of the power supplies.  
When planning your installation, ensure that the frame will be installed high  
enough in the equipment rack to allow 7 rack units for the installation of the Frame  
Primary Power Supply (and another 7 rack units for the optional redundant Power  
Supply, if purchased) below it.  
To allow the use of extender modules and access for other maintenance, sufficient  
room should be allowed in front of the equipment rack (41 inches, 1.05 0 M.).  
Sufficient room should also be allowed in the rear of the rack for access to cables and  
the exhausting of cooling air.  
The switcher frame mounts in a standard 19-inch (48.3 mm) wide  
equipment rack. It is installed in the rack from the front and secured at the  
front edges of the frame with screws (not provided by GVG). Its Power  
Supply mounts below it in the rack on slide rails. The procedure for  
installing the Power Supply follows the frame installation procedure.  
To install the frame in the equipment rack, read the following precautions,  
then refer to Figure 2-6 and complete the following steps:  
WARNING  
The Model 2200 switcher frame weighs approximately 175 lbs (67 Kg.) when  
fully configured. Provide appropriate equipment to support the frame during  
installation.  
When the switcher frame and Power Supply are installed, the equipment rack  
is top heavy and could topple. Ensure that the equipment rack is attached  
solidly to the floor/building to prevent tipping when the frame and Power  
Supply are installed.  
When lifting the frame into place in the equipment rack, it is recommended  
that a mechanical lifting device be used.  
Ensure that the bottom plate of the frame is protected from damage while the  
frame is being lifted into the equipment rack.  
NOTE: The switcher frame is shipped with a protective metal plate on the bottom.  
Leave the plate in place to protect the power cables until the frame is mounted in  
the rack.

Section 2 — Installation  
Switcher Frame Power Supply Installation  
The Primary Power Supply must be mounted immediately below the  
switcher frame in the rack. If you are installing an optional Redundant  
Power Supply, it must be located immediately below the Primary Power  
Supply. Verify that you have allowed enough rack space (7 rack units per  
Supply) before proceeding.  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than  
that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.  
To install the Switcher Frame Power Supply in the equipment rack, refer to  
1. Ensure that the Primary and Redundant Power Supplies are  
disconnected from all power sources.  
2. Locate the installation kit containing the power supply assembly slide  
mounts and hardware. The installation kit consists of the following:  
a. Slide Mounts  
b. Mounting Hardware  
3. Measure the location of the slide sections mounted on the power  
supply chassis to determine the height at which the stationary sections  
of the slides are to be mounted in the rack.  
NOTE: The Primary Power Supply will be attached to the bottom of the switcher  
frame by eight captive screws. It must be installed so that it is touching the bottom  
of the frame.  
4. Verify that the screws holding the chassis sections of the slides to the  
power supply chassis are securely tightened.  
5. Mount the rack sections of the slides to the front and back of the rack  
and secure them in place with the appropriate screws as illustrated in  
the inside of the rack rail. On threaded rails, run short pan head screws  
from the inside. On unthreaded rails, run flat head screws (with nuts)  
from the outside. This results in the power supply being flush with the  
frame; plus allowing for the proper mating of the electrical connectors  
in back. It may be necessary to adjust the length of the rear brackets,  
depending upon the depth of the rack assembly.

Switcher Frame Modules  
The Model 2200 switcher is shipped fully configured with all the standard  
and ordered optional modules already installed in the switcher frame.  
The frame is divided into two “bays,” one in front (A) and one in the rear  
(C). The modules slide into the frame bays, plugging into connectors  
attached to the main motherboard at the center of the frame. The correct  
location of each module is indicated on a location strip above the top of the  
bays. Refer to Figure 2-13 and 2-14 for the location of the modules.

Installation  
Mask Draw Tablet Installation  
The Mask Draw feature (requiring version 5.2 software and new Frame Store and  
Mask Store hardware) allows you to use a graphics tablet (connected to the  
switcher Control Panel) to customize existing masks or to create new ones.  
Using the Force Mask mode, you can add to a key, or using the Inhibit Mask mode,  
you can subtract from a key.  
For example, one use of Mask Draw is the ability to draw an irregularly shaped  
“garbage mask.” Draw a custom-shaped mask around an object using Force Mask,  
and turn “foreground” on. Use this tool instead of keying the object out.  
NOTE: For the Model 2200, mask draw requires the new Frame Store module (064814-  
04). The Mask Draw feature works with the Model 2200 by feeding the mask into the key  
channel.  
For the Model 4000, mask draw requires the new Mask Store Option for full functionality,  
or the new Frame Store module for Mask Store using the key channel.  
Installing the Mask Draw Tablet  
The following WACOM graphics tablet models are supported (Grass  
Valley does not supply the tablet):  
KT-0405-R “ART PAD” (PC compatible version)  
UD—XXXX—R (Any PC-compatible UD-series tablet)  
UD-608-R “ART Z” (PC compatible version)  
SD series (these tablets are now obsolete; however, they may be used if  
a pressure sensitive pen is used with the tablet)  
Installing UD and KT Series Tablets  
The following connector pin-out information applies to the UD and KT  
series tablets.  
The KT and UD tablets include a 9-pin male to 25-pin female adapter. You  
will need a 25-pin male-to-male gender adapter to connect the tablet to the  
POINTING DEVICE input port on the back of the switcher Control Panel.  
The 9-pin male to 25-pin female adapter must be wired as follows: (All  
other pin wiring is unchanged.)

Switcher Option Module Installation  
Switcher Option Module Installation  
There are two types of modules. The first type is a full sized circuit board  
that slides into the frame bays like a standard module. The second module  
type is a smaller “mezzanine” which mounts on a standard circuit board in  
the frame.  
The installation for each of the Model 2200 options is described below.  
Options ordered with the system may already be installed. Most options  
also require configuration and/ or setup using the soft panel menus. The  
menus are given at the end of this section along with explanations for using  
each menu.  
Empty module cells in the rear bay have blank metal strips screwed in  
place to maintain proper air flow inside the switcher and to prevent  
electromagnetic interference. These must be removed before the options  
can be installed.  
CAUTION  
Special EMI fingers are installed on each module connector and blank strip in rear  
bays. Use extreme care when removing or installing the modules and blank strips  
so that the EMI fingers do not break off.

Section 2 — Installation  
Analog Output  
The optional Analog Output Module (slot C15) provides component  
analog monitor outputs for M/ E 2 program and switched preview. These  
outputs are designed for monitor use only and should not be used as on air  
outputs.  
There are two DAC Mezzanine boards on the Analog Output Module; one  
providing the Program analog output and the other, the Preview analog  
output. There are ten Color Difference or RGB formats to choose from as  
the analog output. Output format is determined by the customer by setting  
jumpers on the Analog Output Module and the mezzanine boards. Gain  
adjustments must also be made for accurate output levels.  
Analog Output Modules leave the factory set at RGB .700V, No Setup, and  
narrow RP125 blanking. To change to a different standard, perform the  
following steps:  
1. Remove the Analog Output Module from the rear Signal Processor  
Frame, and place it on a flat, static-free surface.  
2. Locate jumper J17, on the right hand side of the Analog Output Module  
immediately below TP7. Set the jumper setting to the desired blanking  
width of the converted video output. When set to RS-170 (wide  
blanking), blanking edges are placed as in the RS-170 specifications for  
60 Hz systems or for the CCIR 470-2 recommendation for 50 Hz  
systems. When it is set to RP-125, blanking is active from end of active  
video (EAV) to start of active video (SAV) data words, inclusive, as  
described in SMPTE recommended practice RP-125.  
3. Locate jumper J16 on the Analog Output Module, and select the  
appropriate Setup (54 mV) or No Setup setting for your systems  
desired analog outputs. Note that this setting is common to both  
program and preview outputs. Whatever is chosen for one applies to  
both.

4. Remove the Program DAC Mezzanine board from the Analog Output  
Module, and turn the module to the component side. Locate jumpers  
J5, J6, J9, and J11; set all four jumpers to either “a” for Color Difference  
format, or “b” for RGB format.  
5. Locate jumpers J4, J8, and J10 on the Program DAC Mezzanine.  
Referring to Table 2-2, set each jumper to the desired format selection  
for your analog output format. Note that some formats require  
installing two jumpers on J8 and J10. Extra jumpers are stored in an  
inactive socket, J7. If you are changing to a format that uses one jumper  
at J8 and J10, store the extra jumpers at J7. If you lose a jumper, a  
suitable substitute can be made of a short piece of 24 gauge solid tinned  
copper wire.  
6. Carefully replace the Program DAC Mezzanine on the Analog Output  
Module, making sure all connector pins are in the sockets correctly.  
7. Remove the Preview DAC Mezzanine board from the Analog Output  
Module, and repeat Steps 4, and 5.  
8. Carefully replace the Preview DAC Mezzanine on the Analog Output  
Module, making sure all connector pins are in the sockets correctly.  
Coarse adjustment of the format voltage levels are set by jumper selection;  
however, you may need to fine tune these levels using the gain adjustments  
on the DAC Mezzanines.

Section 2 — Installation  
1. Place the Analog Output Module on the I/ O Module Extender  
(064834), and select 100% Color Bars as the Program and Preview  
switcher output. (You may use the internal signal for this adjustment  
which is accessible through the Configuration [INPUTS] menu.)  
2. The gain adjustment trimpots are accessible with the DAC mezzanines  
installed on the Analog Output Module. Connect a waveform monitor  
or oscilloscope to the Analog Output(s). Terminate the scope or  
monitors inputs in 75 Ohms. A component waveform monitor is  
convenient in that all three output channels can be observed  
simultaneously, but it is only necessary to observe one at a time.  
3. Adjust the gain controls to match the waveform for the desired format  
shown in Figure 2-26 for color difference or Figure 2-27 for RGB.  
NOTE: In RGB formats, the gain controls are somewhat interactive. For best  
results, adjust Y gain while observing green output such that the white color bar  
is at specified level. Then observe red output and adjust R-Y gain for equal level  
bars having red content; similarly, observe blue output and adjust B-Y gain for  
equal level bars.  
Effects Send Option  
The Effects Send option consists of the Effects Send Module which resides  
in slot A11. When the effects send is used, the Aux Bus outputs of Serial  
Output Module 2 (slot B11) become the outputs of the Effects Send option.  
This allows A video and key signals (any two signals) in an M/ E to be  
routed outside of the switcher for processing by external devices and then  
brought back into the same M/ E for mixing and output. The Effects Send  
functions require software set ups in the Configuration menus (See  
Section 3 of the Reference Manual).

Switcher Option Module Installation  
Chroma Keyer Option  
Chromatte™ Advanced Chroma Keyer  
You may install one Chromatte™ Chroma Keyer to each M/ E to add  
internal 4:2:2 chroma keying functions to Keyer 1 and Keyer 2. Each option  
includes a Chroma Key Carrier Module with a mezzanine module. The  
Chroma Keyer for M/ E 1 slides into slot A3 and the M/ E 2 Chroma Keyer  
slides into slot A16. To configure your Keyer option refer to the menus for  
the Chroma Keyer in Section Three of the Operators Manual. Any serial  
digital input may be used for 4:2:2 chroma keying from the key bus. Analog  
component video may be used for 4:4:4 chroma keying with the Analog  
Component Chroma Keyer Input Modules option. There is a separate front  
panel gain control for each of the input BNC connectors.  
BORDERLINE Key Edge Generator Option  
The Borderline® option consists of one mezzanine module for one keyer.  
This option module mounts on the Keyer Carrier where the Borderline is  
desired. Up to four Borderline options may be installed on the Keyer  
Carriers; one for M/ E 1 Keyer 1 (Slot A5), M/ E 1 Keyer 2 (Slot A6), M/ E 2  
Keyer 1 (Slot A13), M/ E 2 Keyer 2 (Slot A14).  
To install a Borderline Module, remove the designated Keyer Carrier  
carefully, and place it on a static free surface. The Borderline Mezzanine  
installs in the top location of the module above the Keyer Mezzanines as  
illustrated in Figure 2-15.  
1. Line up the four 50-pin connectors on the Borderline mezzanine with  
the matching connectors on the Keyer Carrier. Be sure the pins are lined  
up properly before seating the mezzanine (look between the mezzanine  
and the Carrier). Push down firmly to seat the mezzanine to the Carrier.  
Check that no pins are bent or outside of the connectors.  
2. From the solder side of the Carrier, attach the mezzanine to the module;  
install the four screws into the metal spacers on the mezzanine, and  
carefully reinstall the Keyer Carrier into the frame in its proper slot  
location.  
NOTE: For best mechanical fit, Mezzanine modules should always be removed by  
unscrewing from the solder side of the Carrier, not from the component side of the  
Mezzanine.

1. Line up the Mezzanine Module so that Connector J1 on the Mezzanine  
aligns with J10 of the Mix/ Wipe Module. Note that the keying plug on  
J1 will mate with the missing pin on J10. Line up the two 50-pin  
connectors on the Secondary Wipe Pattern Generator mezzanine with  
the matching connectors on the Mix/ Wipe Module. Be sure the pins are  
lined up properly before seating the mezzanine (look between the  
mezzanine and the main module). Check that no pins are bent or  
outside of the connectors. Push down firmly to seat the mezzanine to  
the module.

Look Ahead Preview Option  
The Look Ahead Preview option consists of two identical mezzanine  
modules which mount on the two Mix/ Wipe Modules: M/ E 1 (Slot A7)  
and the M/ E 2 (Slot A12) next to the Primary Wipe Mezzanines as shown  
in Figure 2-15.  
To install the modules, carefully remove the Mix/ Wipe Modules from the  
frame. Place them on a static free surface.  
1. Line up the six 50-pin connectors on the Look-ahead Preview  
mezzanine with the matching connectors on the Mix/ Wipe Module. Be  
sure the pins are lined up properly before seating the mezzanine (look  
between the mezzanine and the main module). Check that no pins are  
bent or outside of the connectors. Push down firmly to seat the  
mezzanine to the module.  
2. From the solder side of the Mix/ Wipe Module, attach the mezzanine to  
the module, and install the screws into the metal spacers on the  
mezzanine.  
3. Carefully reinstall the Mix/ Wipe Module in its proper location. Refer  
to the Menu Setup information at the end of this section for  
configuration details.  
Timed Aux Output Option  
The Timed Aux Output option provides three timed aux output pairs  
(video or key) from Aux Buses 3A through 5B. The outputs are autotimed  
on the module to match the Program output. If the optional Framestore is  
installed, the Timed Aux Output option consists of the Timed Aux Output  
Module with the Timed Aux Mezzanine mounted on it. If the optional  
Framestore is not installed, the Timed Aux Control Module must also be  
installed.  
Install the Timed Aux Output Module in Slots C16 and 17. To install the  
Timed Aux Output Module follow the steps below:  
1. Remove the blank plates, if installed, in locations C16 and 17. Install the  
Aux Output Module into Slot C17. Pull the metal ejectors towards each  
other to seat the module. Screw in the two screws at either end of the  
front metal plate with a screwdriver.  
2. Either the Optional Framestore or the Timed Aux Control Module must  
be installed in slot A17. The Framestore Module contains the control  
circuitry for the Aux Output Module so if it is installed, the installation  
is now complete. If the Framestore Module is not installed, install the  
Timed Aux Control Module in slot A17.  
3. Refer to the Cable Connections portion next in this section for Aux bus  
connection instructions.

Switcher Option Module Installation  
Framestore Option  
The Framestore stores up to eight fields of video which can be reentered  
into the switcher or sent to the output of the switcher. several special effects  
can be done to the stored video. The Framestore installs in slot A17. If the  
Aux Control Module is installed in A17, that module must be removed and  
the Framestore installed. The Framestore has all of the circuits required to  
operate the Timed Aux Output Modules.  
Remote Aux Panel Option  
The Remote Aux Control Panel Option allows you to control the Model  
2200’s Aux Buses from a remote location. As many as 32 Remote Aux  
Panels can be daisy-chained to the switcher (see Cabling Information later  
in this section). There are three Remote Aux Panel configurations available,  
identified by the number of rack units (RUs) each occupies in the  
equipment rack. See Figure 2-17 below. Refer to the Remote Aux Control  
Panel Options stand-alone documentation (TP 0699-01) for operating,  
testing, and troubleshooting information.  
The panels are designed to control 48 external inputs (24 unshifted and 24  
shifted). On the Model 2200, input s 17 through 24, aux 6A through aux 9B,  
the M/ E 3 and Pgm buttons are disabled (inputs 1 through 16, and shift 1  
through shift 16 are the active crosspoints).  
Each crosspoint lamp on the Remote Aux panel will high tally when that  
input is on the air. There is an ON AIR lamp on the 1-RU Remote Aux panel  
(P/ N 088901) which will illuminate to indicate that the selected input is on  
the air. The on-air tally can be permanently enabled on all three Remote  
Aux Panels.

Section 2 — Installation  
Address Switches Set the address of the Remote Aux Panel (0 through 31)  
using the switches marked PANEL ADDRESS on the right rear of the panel  
Switches 32 and 64 must be in the OFF position. It may be useful to  
maintain a record of each Remote Aux panel address.  
NOTE: Each panel must have a unique address. Setting the same address for two  
or more panels will cause the entire Remote Aux system to malfunction.  
Bus to be Controlled (Bus Enable) Switches The 1-RU and 2-RU panels have  
eighteen switches labeled BUS TO BE CONTROLLED. These set which  
Aux Bus is controlled by the panel. Only one of these switches may be ON.  
The 3-RU panel has eighteen switches labeled BUS ENABLE. These set  
which Aux Buses can be controlled by the panel. Turn the switch ON for  
each Aux Bus to be controlled. Any combination of the eighteen switches  
can be turned ON. The functioning of the buses that have the switches  
turned OFF depends on the position of the DEL LOCK switch (see below).  
The last eight switches (6A through 9B) must be set to OFF.  
NOTE: Two or more panels can control the same Aux Bus; however, if the same  
bus is selected on more than one panel, the panel with the highest address will  
control the bus.  
Delegate Lock Switch On the 3-RU panel, the DEL LOGIC switch controls  
the functioning of the Aux Buses that are not selected:  
DELLOCK Switch OFF: If a BUS ENABLE switch is OFF, the associated  
Delegate button on the panel can be selected and the source button  
selected for that bus will light but cannot be changed.  
DEL LOCK Switch ON: The Delegate button on the panel cannot be  
selected if its BUS ENABLE switch is OFF.  
NOTE: The DEL LOGIC switch is not used on the 1-RU and 2-RU panels.  
Force High Tally Switch On the 1-RU panel, the FORCE HIGH TALLY  
switch forces the ON AIR lamp on at all times.  
On the 2-RU and 3-RU panels, the FORCE HIGH TALLY switch disables  
the low tally condition. The lamps will be on bright whether the bus is on  
air or not.  
Test Mode Switches These switches run diagnostics and program the  
joystick override. For normal operation set all four TEST MODE switches  
to OFF. Information on the test mode switches can be found in the Remote  
Aux Panel Manual TP0699-01.  
Chop Enable Switch Enables and disables the chop mode

es as listed in Table 2-6.  
When Mode 1, 2, or 3 (Iso Tally) is selected, the switcher tallies only the  
inputs that contribute to the output of the corresponding M/ E.  
When Mode 4 (Individual Bus Iso Tally) is selected, the remaining six  
banks of switches on the board (INDIVIDUAL BUS ENABLES 1—48) select  
the switchers internal buses to be used as tally sources (see Table 2-4). For  
example, with the Bus Enable switches set for buses 35 and 36 ON, if an  
input were selected on bus 35 or 36, its corresponding relay would close.  
The same input chosen on other buses would cause no relay closures. It is  
possible to tally as many buses as desired simultaneously. Table 2-4 shows  
the switch settings for each of the buses in Mode 4.

Section 2 — Installation  
Status Terminal Connections  
The Status Terminal connector on the rear of the control panel allows the  
connection of a VT-100 (type) terminal to be connected to the Model 2200.  
The terminal is used to monitor system status and for maintenance  
purposes.  
1. Connect a cable between the input of a VT-100 (type) terminal and J3  
(Status Terminal connector) on the rear of the control panel. The  
connector (J3) on the rear of the control panel is a standard RS-232  
configuration via a DB-25 connector with the following pin-outs:  
Pin 1 — Protective Ground  
Pin 2 — TxD (From the Terminal)  
Pin 3 — RxD (To the Terminal)  
Pin 7 — Signal Ground  
2. Ensure that the baud rate and other parameters of the Model 2200 given  
below match the baud rate of the terminal. See the Owners Manual of  
the terminal in use to determine or set the baud rate of the terminal.  
Also be sure the terminal is set to “Newline Off” or “No Newline”.

Cable Connections  
Input Signal Connections (Video and Key)  
The Model 2200 allows up to 32 video/ key inputs to be connected. These  
inputs are connected to a Serial Digital Module at the rear of the frame.  
Inputs are configured in the soft menus.  
Component analog inputs can be connected to the optional Chroma Key  
Input Module.  
NOTE: Grass Valley Products does not supply cables or terminators. These must  
be obtained from other suppliers.  
Serial Digital Video Connections  
The serial digital inputs require the use of 75coaxial cables. The use of  
75BNC connectors is recommended but not required. Facilities with  
existing cables with 50connectors on 75cables need not change their  
connectors. However, with the use of 50connectors there is the  
possibility of some errors occurring in the serial data stream.  
The maximum length of serial digital cables should not exceed 225 meters  
(738 feet). Fiber optic distribution and transmission is recommended for  
runs longer than 225 meters.  
Connect serial digital video sources to the Serial Input Modules in Slots C7,  
C12-C14 as required for your facility. Inputs are loopthrough; be sure to  
terminate each input with a 75termination.

Cable Connections  
DPM Configurations  
Digital Picture Manipulators (DPMs) are external video devices connected  
to the switcher. In this discussion, reference is also made to DPM levels,  
which are E-MEM levels into which DPM-associated information is  
learned. The combined system capabilities of the switcher and DPMs  
depend on:  
The video connection  
The capabilities of the DPM  
The control connection  
It is not necessary to have a control connection from the switcher to a DPM;  
however, the highest level of system integration is achieved where there is  
a control connection.  
The Video Connection (Aux Buses and Return Inputs)  
A normal video signal path consists of an Aux Bus output from the  
switcher feeding a DPM input and the DPM output returned to a switcher  
input which is mapped to a switcher source select button.  
The video path through a DPM introduces a video delay into the system.  
For example, Kaleidoscope introduces a 2-field video delay. It is most  
important that this delay be set correctly in the DPM Setup menu if Effects  
Send is to be used.  
NOTE: If the video delay is not set correctly, there will be a glitch in the video upon  
entering Effects Send mode.  
There are four steps in configuring the video path:  
Aux buses are assigned to DPMs using the DPM Map Aux Bus menu  
Return input connections are configured using the DPM Map Inputs  
menu  
The mapping of a return connection to a crosspoint is done using the  
Configuration/ Map Inputs menu  
The video delay is set using the DPM Setup menu  
2-53

Section 2 — Installation  
The system defaults to all Aux Buses being part of the [MISC] E-MEM level.  
When an Aux Bus is configured for use with an external DPM, its settings  
are no longer saved in the [MISC] level but are saved in the relevant [DPM]  
level when an E-MEM register is learned. Information (such as Aux Bus  
crosspoint selection) is learned for each DPM on separate E-MEM levels.  
In cases where it is not desirable to have an Aux Bus selection learned or  
recalled on the [MISC] level, it is possible to configure the Aux Bus to a  
[DPM] level (such as [DPM 4]) and never enable that level. An example  
would be if the Aux Bus were controlled by a Remote Aux panel.  
DPM Capabilities (Fixed and Pooled)  
The characteristics of the DPM are configured in the DPM Setup menu. The  
first choice to be made is selection of [DPM TYPE] from NONE, KSCOPE, KRYSTAL,  
or OTHER FIXED.  
The [DPM TYPE] of NONE indicates that there is no external DPM device used  
for the particular DPM level. However, it can also be used for cases where  
Aux Buses are assigned to a DPM level, but there is no physical device, no  
return signal, and no control connection (for example, an Aux Bus  
dedicated to feeding a video monitor).  
Both KSCOPE and KRYSTAL are selections for pooled devices.  
A pooled device is one which provides acquisition of logical channels from  
a pool of physical channels.  
Kaleidoscope is a pooled device. As an example, consider a Kaleidoscope  
having 5 physical channels named A, B, C, D, and E. The pooled channels  
are shared by different users. A user may build a Kaleidoscope effect using  
3 channels. On one day he may acquire physical channels C, D, and E as  
logical channels 1, 2, and 3; on another day he may acquire physical  
channels B, C, and D as logical channels 1, 2, and 3. The same effect will  
perform identically on both configurations since the operators view of the  
system is the logical arrangement of channels (1, 2, and 3), not the physical  
channels used.  
In systems with multiple DPM channels, it is desirable to have a  
predictable relationship between Aux Buses and DPM channels (for  
example, Aux Bus 1 feeding DPM channel 1, Aux Bus 2 feeding channel 2,  
and so on) and to have a particular switcher crosspoint button always  
select the same DPM channel return input. For a fixed device (such as the  
DPM-700) this relationship is achieved by cabling alone. For a pooled  
device, such as Kaleidoscope, the Model 2200 achieves predictable DPM  
channel routing by maintaining an extra level of mapping between  
physical and logical DPM channels. This mapping, termed Switcher Input  
Routing and Switcher Output Routing, is discussed on the following page.  
2-54  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
 
Cable Connections  
For [DPM TYPE] of OTHER FIXED or NONE (DPMs which are not pooled and do  
not have Input and Output Routing), the [CHANNEL ROUTING] selection  
should be OFF.  
Kaleidoscope changes its logical-to-physical channel mapping, depending  
on the order in which channels are acquired from its pool. Switcher output-  
routing maps a physical Aux Bus to a logical Aux Bus so that the logical  
Aux Bus number corresponds with the DPMs logical channel.  
The Aux bus button selection made on the switcher control panel is always  
a logical Aux Bus; however, unless Kaleidoscope is connected, Logical Aux  
Bus 1 always corresponds to Physical Aux Bus 1, etc. (The current mapping  
of physical-to-logical DPM channels is displayed in the DPM Map Inputs  
menu.)  
It should be noted that the switcher supports only one pooled device. Also,  
the pooled device must be cabled so that the first physical Aux Bus is  
connected to the first physical channel. In the example in Figure 2-26,  
Physical Aux Bus 1 is connected to Kaleidoscope Physical Channel A, Bus  
2 to Channel B, and so on.

Section 2 — Installation  
For a particular studio session, three Kaleidoscope channels could be  
acquired from the pool in the order D, E, A, which would be logical  
channels 1, 2, 3. This mapping information is passed from the DPM to the  
switcher via the control connection. Switcher output routing ensures that  
the logical channels 1, 2, 3 appear to the user on logical Aux Buses 1, 2, 3  
and switcher input routing ensures that DPM logical channels 1, 2, 3  
appear on the crosspoints configured for these logical channels. For the  
above configuration, the selection of [CHANNEL ROUTING] in the DPM Setup  
menu should be set to BOTH.  
There are circumstances where output routing is not desirable. For  
example, the DPM may have more than 5 channels. In that case, a router or  
patch panel may be inserted between the switcher and Kaleidoscope  
menu selection for [CHANNEL ROUTING] in the DPM Setup menu should be set  
to SWR IN. This still provides the return video from the switcher being on a  
consistent crosspoint.

Cable Connections  
Control Connection  
Three forms of control connection to the DPMs are supported. These are  
CPL (Control Point Language)  
PBusII (Peripheral Bus II)  
GPIs  
Control Point Language — CPL is the communication protocol used to  
couple the switcher and Kaleidoscope. One of its uses is to convey the  
physical-to-logical channel mapping information described previously. It  
is also used for run control of effects, Aux Bus selection (including front/  
back switching) and tally.  
When [DPM TYPE] is set to KSCOPE in the DPM Setup menu, CPL is  
automatically invoked. [PORT ASSIGN] must be set to PORT A1.  
The [AUX BUS CONTROL] selection has a choice of DPM or SWITCHER. In normal  
use with Kaleidoscope, this should be set to DPM. With this setting, when a  
source button is selected on the Kaleidoscope panel, that source button is  
also selected on the switcher for that Aux Bus, and vice versa. So an effect  
running on Kaleidoscope can cause the switcher to select different  
crosspoints. This is the mechanism used to achieve front/ back switching.  
If [AUX BUS CONTROL] is set to SWITCHER, any CPL requests to change  
crosspoints on an Aux Bus are ignored and Kaleidoscope is unable to  
change sources when running an effect.  
All control connections have an associated control delay. For Kaleidoscope  
using CPL, this delay is 6 fields which is selected automatically.  
Peripheral Bus II (Port A3 Only) — PBusII is used for run control of effects  
using triggers. With current software, PBusII triggers are learned into the  
[MISC] E-MEM level. For example, when using PBusII as the control  
connection for a DPM-700, the following should be set in the DPM Setup  
menu:  
[PORT ASSIGN] = NONE  
[CHANNEL ROUTING] = OFF  
GPIs — Both input and output GPIs may be used as triggers as part of the  
control interface between the DPM and switcher. Depending on the nature  
of the DPM, GPIs can be used for effect recall and run control, source  
selection, and tally information.

The Kaleidoscope Channel outputs can be connected to any of the Model  
2200 physical inputs (1 to 32), in any order. It is important to note which  
physical inputs are connected from which Kaleidoscope Channel outputs,  
for both video and key. This information must be entered later into a setup  
menu in the Model 2200 (DPM Map Inputs Menu under the External  
Interfaces Menu).  
When the Kaleidoscopes outputs are sent to an Output Router, the  
Primary Video and Key, and Secondary Video and Key outputs may be  
connected to any four inputs on the switcher. The switchers inputs are  
assigned via menus to any crosspoints (Map Inputs Menu under the Inputs  
Menu). This assignment is described later in this section.

Cable Connections  
NOTE: Standard length of the RS-422 cable is 16 meters (The cable length is  
indicated by the dash number on the end of the part number.) The maximum  
combined length of the adapter and RS-422 cables should not exceed 300 meters.  
The adapter cable connects between J17 at the rear of the Kaleidoscope  
Controller chassis, and the 9-pin D-type connector on the end of the RS-422  
control cable. The control cable connects to J1 (Port A1) or J3 (Port A2) on  
the optional Expanded Communications Module at the rear of the switcher  
frame (B1 and B2). See Figure 2-14.  
NOTE: This interface requires that the Serial Communications mezzanine board  
(068918) be installed on the switcher Expanded Communications Carrier Module  
(064824). The Expanded Communications Carrier Module is located in slot B1  
and B2 in the switcher frame.  
Additional Kaleidoscope requirements are as follows: The Parallel I/O module in  
the Kaleidoscope Controller must be a 068604 module (not a 068537), and the  
software version installed in Kaleidoscope must be 6.0 or later.

Section 2 — Installation  
Connecting to a DPM–700  
The Model 2200 can initiate E-MEM Effects Memory Learn and Recall  
operations in a DPM-700 using Peripheral Bus II protocol. In addition, the  
Model 2200 can trigger specific functions in the DPM.  
Communication is controlled from the Model 2200 to the DPM; the DPM  
will not control or communicate with the Model 2200. (Direct DPM control  
of the Model 2200 Aux buses is not provided.)  
NOTE: This interface requires that the Serial Communications mezzanine board  
(068918) be installed on the switcher Expanded Communication Module  
(068824). The Expanded Communications Module is located in slot B1 and B2 in  
the rear bay of the switcher frame.  
Control and video/ key connections between the Model 2200 and the DPM  
are illustrated in Figure 2-29. The switchers Aux Bus video and key  
outputs are connected to the DPMs video and key inputs. The DPMs  
outputs can be connected to any of the Model 2200s physical inputs. The  
inputs are then assigned via menus to any crosspoints, as described later in  
this section (Map Inputs Menu under Inputs Menu).

Section 2 — Installation  
GPI Connections  
The four GPI connectors on the rear panel of the switcher frame provide  
eight input and eight output GPI connections. See Table 2-14 These  
connections provide a variety of user-assignable GPI applications such as  
remote control of Auto Transitions, DSK mix, Fade-to-Black Transitions  
and other selected functions. Refer to “External Interface Setup” later in  
this section for defining GPI inputs.  
NOTE: It is important that the shields of the GPI cables be attached to the ground  
lugs as shown in Figure 2-31.  
GPI Inputs  
GPI inputs are opto-isolators. These pairs of input connectors are  
numbered 1 through 8 with a chassis ground connection on the bottom  
and +5V connection on the top end of each connector module. To  
trigger the GPI input, a DC voltage must be applied across the pair of  
terminals for that input. Voltage must be between 4V and 24V, either  
polarity. When the device used to trigger this input has a pair of relay  
contacts available, the following wiring connection is recommended  
(Input 6 shown in the following example).  
Connect the appropriate GPI DC input signals to the GPI INPUTS  
connectors TB1 and TB2. See Table 2-31  
GPI Outputs  
Each GPI output consists of pairs of connections on the rear of the  
frame, which are connected to an isolated pair of relay contacts (SPST;  
normally open). These pairs of output connectors TB 3 and TB 4 are  
numbered 1 through 8 with a chassis ground connection on both ends  
of each connector module. These relay connections are rated at 500mA  
(peak) for voltages not to exceed 30 volts peak (AC or DC) with respect  
to chassis ground.  
Connect the appropriate GPI output connections to GPI OUTPUTS  
connectors TB3 and TB4. Record these output connections for use by  
the operator when attaching the triggers to E-MEM recalls.

Section 2 — Installation  
Remote Aux Connections  
The Remote Aux Control Panel consists of three parts:  
Remote Aux Panel Assembly  
Power supply with power cord  
Communications bus cable connector  
NOTE: Due to limited access at the rear of the Remote Aux Panel after it is  
installed in the rack, it is recommended that the communications cable and power  
supply cord be connected and the DIP switches on the rear of the panel be set before  
the panel assembly is installed in the rack.  
Cable Installation  
A Remote Aux cable connector is provided with each panel. See Figure 2-32  
for connector illustration. This connector must be applied to a shielded  
twisted-pair control cable with a D connector on the opposite end. The D  
connector of the cable will later be plugged into the rear of the switcher  
frame.  
CAUTION  
Do not plug the D connector in at this time. If power is applied to the switcher, the  
cable line drivers in the switcher may be damaged.  
The other end of the cable will be plugged into the Communications Bus  
connector on the rear of the Remote Aux Panel using the supplied  
connector. Any additional panel(s) will be connected to the previous panel.  
Keep in mind that the total length of the cable must not exceed 1000 feet  
(320 M).  
Place the D-connector end of the cable so that it will reach J4 (AUX BUS  
CTL) on the Communication I/ O Module Slot C10.  
Lay the cable from the switcher frame to where the first Remote Aux Panel  
will be. Allow enough cable to reach the control panel connector, and about  
3 feet (1 meter) extra, then cut the cable and strip the wires.

Cable Connections  
Connector Installation  
The connector that plugs into the Remote Aux Panel has screw clamps to  
hold the wires. Paying attention to polarity (see Table 2-5), insert the wires  
into the appropriate holes and screw down the clamps. If there is another  
control panel, the cable to the next panel must also be inserted into this  
connector. The D connector on that cable must be cut off, and the wires for  
the next panel must be stripped and inserted into the same holes before the  
screws are tightened. Make sure the polarity is correct. Refer to Figure 2-18

Section 2 — Installation  
System Setup  
This section describes how to turn on and perform the initial setup of the  
Model 2200 Switcher. It is designed to assist you in verifying proper  
operation of the system, as well as allowing you to reconfigure the preset  
(default) definitions of video sources and other system parameters.  
System setup is divided into the following three areas:  
Preliminary Checks — Describes the basic requirements for bringing  
the system to the power-on stage. Initial checks, test/ monitoring  
equipment needs, and verification of proper operation are included.  
Initial Setup — Step-by-step procedures in this section allow you to  
configure the system to a particular installation.  
System Timing—Controls on the Sync Generator allow you to move the  
timing of the whole switcher—the output timing and the input timing  
window—relative to the analog reference.  
Preliminary Checks  
Before bringing the system on-line, there are several preliminary checks  
and preparations to be made.  
WARNING  
You should observe normal precautions when working around high current,  
low voltage power supplies. Always remove rings, wrist watches, etc. before  
working inside any of the systems components.  
1. Verify that all cabling is clear of cooling fans and that there are no loose  
tools or other metal objects near power supply buses or connections.  
2. Check that all modules are seated firmly in the frame.  
3. Verify that the control panel and switcher frame AC power cables are  
properly connected.

The Control Panel Menu Display is on and displaying the  
Model 2200 sign-on message.  
Check the following indications inside the front door of the A and B  
Frames:  
The +5V RUN lights at the top of each module in the A & B Bays of the  
switcher frame are lit.  
The rear module power indicators on the Sync Generator Module in  
Slot A10 are lit for each module present in the rear frame.  
Set the FIELD RATE and LOCK FREQ switches on the Sync Generator  
Module (064801) in Slot A10 to the correct settings for your facility:  
S1 - FIELD RATE to either 60 or 50 Hz  
S2 - LOCK FREQ to 13.5 Mhz  
CAUTION  
To meet RF/EMI specifications and to ensure proper cooling, the door on the front  
of the switcher frame must be closed.  
NOTE: Maintenance Personnel should be familiar with the Control panel and its  
usage. For information and reference, see the Model 2200 Operator’s Guide.  
When the system is turned on, preset parameters contained in non-volatile  
RAM are loaded into the working area of memory. This provides a preset  
copy and a working copy of the parameters. The working copy is used for  
normal operation and the preset copy is used if a problem occurs with the  
working copy.  
Changes can be made to the working copy without affecting the preset  
copy. When power is removed and reapplied, parameters revert to those  
contained in the preset copy.

Section 2 — Installation  
System Timing (13.5 MHz, Serial I/O only)  
The Model 2200 switcher has timing compensation to adjust an analog  
reference signal not in time with the serial inputs. The controls may also  
offset the position of the serial inputs within the timing window to  
minimize the delay through the switcher, for example. Timing is adjusted  
with the FINE, MEDIUM and COARSE rotary switches on the front of the  
064801 Sync Generator Module located in Slot A9 in the top of the front A  
Bay of the switcher frame.  
These controls move the timing of the whole switcher - the output timing  
and the input timing window - relative to the analog reference to the  
switcher. Refer to Figure 2-40 for a timing diagram of the timing ranges.  
The range of each control is as follows:  
FINE: 296 ns total (18.5 ns per step)  
MEDIUM: 4.74 µS total (296 ns per step)  
COARSE: 75.8 µS total (4.74 µs per step)  
Set the controls to the nominal center shown below:  
FINE = 0  
MEDIUM= 0  
COARSE = 8  
Equipment Required  
A signal source with a black-to-white transition in active video for use  
as a timing reference (for example, Pulse and Bar).  
A non-timing serial digital analog converter. (The timing of the analog  
video is directly related to the timing of the serial input).  
A wide-band oscilloscope with a delayed sweep, externally locked to a  
house reference.

This procedure sets the serial inputs to the center of the auto timing range.  
Make sure you have assigned your serial inputs in the Configuration menu  
before proceeding.  
1. Select one of the serial sources and connect it to the serial to analog  
converter.  
2. Connect the Y (or G) output of the converter to the scope. Adjust the  
delayed sweep on the scope so that the midpoint of the black–to–white  
transition is at a reference point.  
3. Connect this source to a primary switcher input and select it on the  
program bus.  
4. Connect the serial program output of the switcher (J5 or J6 of the Serial  
Output Module in Slot D6) to the input of the converter.  
5. Adjust the rotary switches on the front of the Sync Generator Module  
so that the black-to-white transition is 70 µS later than the previously  
noted reference point.  
Switcher Delay = 50 µS  
Use this procedure to set the switcher delay to a minimum.  
1. Select the serial source with the latest delay, and connect it to the serial-  
to-analog converter.  
2. Connect the Y (or G) output of the converter to the scope.  
3. Adjust the delayed sweep on the scope so that the midpoint of the  
black-to-white transition is at a reference point.  
4. Connect this source to a primary switcher input and select it on the  
program bus.  
5. Connect the serial program output to the input of the converter. Adjust  
the rotary switches on the front of the Sync Generator Module so that  
the black-to-white transition is 50 µS later than the previously noted

Switcher Module Description  
The following is a description of the functions of each frame module type.  
The modules are located in two “bays” referred to as A (front bay) and C  
(rear bay). The module locations are shown in Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3.  
Each module has a six-digit assembly number followed by a two-digit  
version number and letter to identify it. For example the Sync Generator  
Module is numbered 064801–XX with a letter following the dash number.  
It may also be referred to as the 801 Module. This number can be found on  
the silk screen in different locations on each module circuit board.  
Included in the descriptions are the input and output signals and the  
microprocessor(s) that control that specific module. Unless otherwise  
indicated in the description, all modules and mezzanine modules with the  
same part number are interchangeable.  
For the video modules the descriptions answer the following questions:  
What does the module do?  
What are the input signals?  
What are the output signals?  
Which microprocessors are used in each area of the module?

Switcher Module Description  
Serial Reentry Module (064822)  
There are two Serial Reentry Modules (SRE). The SRE Modules are used to  
reenter some switcher outputs back into the switcher and enter some of the  
internally generated signals into the switcher. Reentered signals are then  
sent to the crosspoint module where they are treated the same as any other  
SRE Module 1 is in input slot C6 and SRE 2 is in input slot C5.

Section 3 — Functional Description  
Output Modules  
There are three types of output modules available: Serial Digital Output,  
Analog Output, and Timed Aux Output.  
Serial (Digital) Output Modules (064821)  
The Serial Output Modules convert the output signals from balanced  
(differential) to unbalanced (coax) mode  
Analog Output Module (064819)  
The Analog Output Module is used to output the M/ E 2 program and  
switched preview to monitors.  
Timed Aux Output Module (064852) (Slot C16 and 17)  
The basic function of the Timed Aux Output Module is:  
Generate aux buses 3A through 5B  
There are eight identical channels on the module but only six are used. In  
one typical channel, the aux bus signal arrives from the Crosspoint  
Module. The signal is de-serialized, descrambled, and presented to a  
RP-125 decoder ASIC.  
The ASIC is used in a standard fashion to re-synchronize and demultiplex  
the signal. The timing signal is also used to provide delay information to a  
pair of HSP–9501 delay lines. The delayed Y and C components of the  
signal are multiplexed together by RP–125 encoder. Finally, the signal is  
scrambled and serialized.  
The Timed Aux Mezzanine is mounted on the double-wide Timed Aux  
Output module.  
For the Timed Aux Output Module to function, either the Frame Store or  
the Timed Aux Control Module must be installed in cell A17. These  
modules have circuitry that latches the VID Data and control data, and  
sends it on the backplane to the Timed Aux Output module.  
NOTE: The Timed Aux Output module will not work with the Extender Module.

Switcher Module Description  
Crosspoint Module (064800)  
The Crosspoint Modules distributes all of the video input signals to all the  
buses in the system. The Crosspoint Modules work entirely in the serial  
digital mode.  
After going through the Input Module, the video is sent to both Crosspoint  
Modules: M/ E 1, and M/ E 2. Each crosspoint module is an 80 input X 16  
output matrix. All inputs are common to both Crosspoint Modules. The  
Crosspoint Modules are combined to create an 80 input X 32 output  
crosspoint matrix. Only 41 inputs are used  
The Crosspoint Modules have a series of 16 input X 8 output crosspoint ICs.  
These are put into a circuit to create an 80 input X 16 output crosspoint  
matrix. Both of the Crosspoint Modules make use of the HOS processor to  
control the aux buses. The two M/ E processors control their respective M/  
E and key buses.  
The HOS processor is wired to the same connector location in both  
Crosspoint Module slots. The M/ E 1 processor is wired to the same  
connector location in slot A4 as the M/ E 2 processor is wired to in slot A9.  
The function, inputs, outputs, and processor used for each Crosspoint  
Module are outlined below:  
M/E 1 Crosspoint Module (Slot A4)  
Function of the module:  
This module takes all of the video inputs to the switcher including the ones  
generated by the switcher and distributes them as video and keys to the  
M/ E1 Program and Preset buses and Aux Buses 5A through 6B.

Switcher Module Description  
Keyer Carrier Module (064804)  
The Keyer Carrier Module accepts serial video signals and keys from the  
Crosspoint Module and parallel keys and shaped video from the Chroma  
Keyer Module for that M/ E. The outputs are shaped video and clipped and  
gained keys. Outputs are sent to the Mixer Interface Modules.  
The Keyer Carrier Module does the following:  
Converts video from serial to parallel (not used with chroma key)  
Interfaces to the optional BORDERLINE Mezzanines (key layer only)  
Bypasses BORDERLINE mezzanine if not installed  
Interfaces to the Key Processor Mezzanines  
Can do a non additive mix with the other Keyer Module in that M/ E  
Routes wipe and wash information from the Mix/ Wipe Module to the  
Key Processor Mezzanine Module  
Generates Box Mask for the Keyer Mezzanine Modules  
Transfers key and video fill information from Chroma Keyer Module  
to Keyer Mezzanine Module  
Before being sent off the module, the video signals first have the  
chrominance and luminance recombined.  
There are two Keyer Carrier Modules for each M/ E for a total of four  
modules. Each Keyer Carrier Module has connectors for two Keyer  
Mezzanine Modules and one BORDERLINE Mezzanine. There is circuitry  
for interfacing to each of these mezzanine modules. The input signals for  
each Keyer Carrier Module are the following:  
Serial video from the Crosspoint Modules:  
One background video and its key source  
One key and its video fill  
3-13  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
   
Section 3 — Functional Description  
The incoming video and keys from the Crosspoint Module are first  
converted from serial to parallel. Next, there are selectors that select  
between the Chroma Keyer and the Crosspoint Module. The selected video  
and key are then sent to the Keyer Mezzanine Modules.  
Parallel video from the Keyer Mezzanine Module to the Keyer Carrier  
Module are:  
A clipped, gained and masked key and a shaped video for the  
background  
A clipped, gained and masked key and a shaped video for the key  
If there is a BORDERLINE Mezzanine installed, the key goes onto that  
module and has a border added to it. The BORDERLINE Mezzanine is  
described later in this section.  
Next, there is a a Non-Additive Mixer (NAM) in the key path. The NAM  
can do a mix between the two keys of that M/ E. The key NAM compares  
the luminance level of Key 1 and Key 2 fills and puts the key that has the  
highest instantaneous luminance level of its fill on the air. Only the NAM  
on the A keyer for each M/ E is active. The video and key from the B keyer  
is sent to the A keyer for NAMing.  
The outputs of the Keyer Carrier Module are parallel video. The A video  
and keys are sent to the Mixer Interface Module, the B video is sent to the  
Mixer Module.  
Keyer Mezzanine (064826)  
There are two Keyer Mezzanines on each of the Key Carrier Module. One  
Keyer Mezzanine is for a background layer and the second Keyer  
Mezzanine is for the key layer. Backgrounds can be used as keys in the  
“Layered Mode.”  
On the Keyer Mezzanine Module the video is separated into luminance  
and chroma. All videos are timed together and all keys are timed together.  
Depending on control panel settings, the video then goes through  
processing for gain and offset and coring for noise reduction. Depending  
on settings, the key is clipped and gain adjusted, and the video is shaped  
by its key. Masks are added, then the signal goes off the keyer Mezzanine  
Module and back to the Keyer Carrier Module.

Switcher Module Description  
The Keyer Mezzanine:  
Demultiplexes parallel inputs from Keyer Carrier Module  
May use the key source and the key fill video to create a clipped and  
gained key and a shaped video fill  
Can move the key horizontally in subpixel increments over a six pixel  
range  
May modify offset and gain on the input video fill  
Generates two key fill mattes which can be substituted for the video  
Uses signals from the wipe generator to generate a wash between the  
two mattes  
May mask the key with both force and inhibit masks  
Times the inputs  
Provides a washed matte border for preset patterns  
Input signals for each Keyer Mezzanine Module are:  
Video fill source  
Video key source  
Each of the Key Mezzanine Modules creates:  
A shaped video fill or washed matte  
A clipped, gained and masked key  
The Keyer Mezzanine Module has circuitry to time the video and key  
signals. The timing is set so that the signals are aligned at the output of the  
Keyer Carrier Module even though the keyer path is longer (because of the  
BORDERLINE and key NAM) than the background path.  
The Keyer Mezzanine Module uses the box mask from the Keyer Carrier  
Module, or the wipe masks from the Mix/ Wipe Module, to mask the keys  
and key fill. The keys can be filled with matte. The matte is generated by a  
dual matte generator on the Key Mezzanine Module. The matte can be  
modulated by the wipe signal from the Mix/ Wipe Module.  
The functions, inputs, outputs, and processor used for each of the Key  
Carrier and Keyer Mezzanine combinations is given below.

The Mixer Interface Module:  
Routes the video and key signals from Key 1, Key 2, and the A Bus from  
both M/ Es to the Mix/ Wipe Modules and the optional Effects Send  
Module  
If the Effects Send is not installed, this module simply passes these video  
and key signals from the Keyer Modules to the Mix/ Wipe Modules. See  
When Effects Send is installed, this module acts as a switch. If the switcher  
is in normal mode, the Mixer Interface Modules switch the video and keys  
from the keyer to the appropriate Mix/ Wipe Module. If the switcher is in  
the Effects Send mode, the Mixer Interface Module switches the  
appropriate video and key signals from the Keyer Module to the Effects  
Send Module which sends the signals to the effects generator on aux bus  
outputs. Signals from the effects generator are reentered into the switcher  
on aux buses. These signals are routed back to the Effects Send Modules  
where they are sent to the Mixer Interface Modules and on to the Mix/  
Wipe Modules.

Converts output video from parallel to serial  
The Mix/ Wipe circuit board has connectors for two Wipe Mezzanine  
Modules and one Preview Module.  
The Mix/ Wipe Module has its own microprocessor, program memory  
(flash PROM), and dual port memory. The system processor sends  
information to the dual port memory indicating what is to be done during  
the next field. The Mix/ Wipe processor reads this information and does the  
calculations necessary to accomplish the operations and sends the  
information to the rest of the module and the mezzanine modules.  
The Mix/ Wipe Module routes the output of each Wipe Mezzanine into the  
other Wipe Mezzanine. This allows the mezzanine modules to do a mix or  
a NAM (Non Additive Mix) between the outputs of the two mezzanine  
modules. See Figure 3-6 for mezzanine module locations.

Switcher Module Description  
Sync Generator Module (064801) (Slot A10)  
The basic functions of the Sync Generator Module are:  
Use the input reference video to lock the switcher  
Generate sync pulses for the other modules in the system  
Generate clocks for the other modules in the system  
Generate “Sync Edge” pulse for analog input alignment  
The input is the analog reference video signal. This signal is brought in as  
a differential video signal from the Communications I/ O Module at the  
rear of the frame. The video is filtered, then sync is stripped off. The sync  
is used to lock a 13.5 MHz phase-locked loop. The 13.5 MHz signal is used  
to lock a four times 13.5 clock from which all sync pulses are derived.  
The two clocks generated on this module are “system clock” and  
“multiplex clock” which is twice the frequency of “system clock.” These  
clocks have a separate driver for each module. The clock outputs are  
differential positive ECL level. The multiplex clock is used on the modules  
to multiplex and demultiplex the video signals. The system clock is used to  
clock the video through the system.  
The system sync pulses are a TTL level and are generated from the four  
times 13.5MHz phase lock loop. There are two separate generators, one for  
the vertical rate signals and one for the horizontal rate signals. The sync  
pulses have drivers that feed four or five modules.  
The “dither” mode line is controlled on the Sync Generator Module  
through the VID interface.

Overall System Control  
Overall System Control  
There are three microprocessors in the control panel and either seven or  
eight microprocessors in the switcher frame. In the switcher frame there are  
two Control Processor Modules (Control Processor 1 and Control  
Processor 2).  
The multiple microprocessors are designed to prevent total loss of system  
control if one of the processors fails. To accomplish this some of the  
modules have address and data buses for more than one processor. If one  
of the processors fails, the rest of the system continues to function but with  
some reduced capability.  
The control signals begin in the control panel. The push-buttons and shaft  
encoders of the control panel are scanned and any change in the status of  
the controls is noted by the appropriate controller and sent to the Control  
Processor Modules in the switcher frame.  
The Control Processor Modules interpret these signals and send each of the  
modules in the switcher frame the correct signal to do the requested  
operation. Information programmed in the system (i.e. which input is  
assigned to which push-button) is stored on the Control Processor Modules  
and is called upon to interpret the information from the control panel.  
M/ E 1 control is handled by the M/ E Mezzanine Module (068916) installed  
on Control Processor 1 (064805).  
M/ E 2 control is accomplished by the M/ E Mezzanine Module (068916)  
installed on Control Processor 2 (064806).  
DSK control is handled by the Head of State (HOS) Mezzanine Module  
(068919) installed on Control Processor 1 (064805).  
The HOS processor has overall control of the system.  
Strobe: There is a strobe from the processor modules to each of the other  
modules to select that module.  
Batteries: Each of the processor modules has a lithium battery installed.  
They are the power source for the battery backed up RAM when power is  
removed from the module.  
CAUTION  
Be careful not to short out the battery. This can cause permanent damage to the  
battery and loss of the data in battery backed up RAM.  
Control Processor 1 Module (064805) (Slot A1)

Section 4 — Maintenance  
Servicing Precautions  
CAUTION  
To prevent overheating do not operate the switcher frame with the door open for  
an extended period of time.  
Powering Down  
WARNING  
Unless specifically directed to do otherwise by a maintenance procedure,  
turn power off before removing or repairing any circuit module or assembly  
in this system. If the system has redundant power supplies, both supplies  
must be turned off.  
Before working on any power supply assembly, turn off the power and  
disconnect the power cord from the AC power source.  
CAUTION  
When power to the switcher frame is turned off, the switcher setup at that time will  
be lost. E-MEM and configuration data will be retained. To save the setup, save the  
setup to E-MEM.  
Removing any of the mezzanine modules from the Control Processor Modules will  
result in complete data loss from the battery-backed SRAM on that mezzanine  
module. This occurs because the batteries supplying power to the mezzanine  
module are located on the Control Processor Modules and not on the mezzanines  
themselves.  
Removing Circuit Modules  
All of the video processing and control processing in the system takes place  
on circuit modules in the switcher frame and control panel. The locations  
of these modules are illustrated in the appropriate portions of this section.  
CAUTION  
When removing circuit modules from the switcher frame place them on a flat non-  
conductive surface. Failure to follow this precaution can result in loss of SRAM data  
due to battery discharge or component damage due to electro-static discharge.

Servicing Precautions  
Two optional circuit module extenders are available. One is for use with  
the main video processing and control modules located in the front bay of  
the switcher. The second is for use with the I/ O and communications  
modules in the rear bay. The extender modules allow operation of the  
system while providing access to test points and adjustments that would  
be inaccessible with the module seated normally.  
CAUTION  
If a circuit module in the switcher frame is removed or reinstalled while the power  
is on, it is unlikely that permanent damage will occur to the module or system.  
Microprocessor messages, however, may become scrambled. This may result in  
system errors and improper operation. If these problems occur, the only sure way  
to restore proper operation is to turn the frame power OFF, wait a few seconds,  
then turn power back ON again. The power-up sequence will re-synchronize the  
microprocessors.  
Repairing Circuit Modules  
Model 2200 circuit modules are not designed to be repaired in the field.  
Failed modules should be replaced.  
Surface mount technology and multi-layer printed circuit manufacturing  
techniques have been used in many of the circuit modules. Specialized  
equipment and training are required to properly repair these modules.  
CAUTION  
Do not attempt component-level field repair on these circuit modules. Use of  
improper tools or equipment to repair multi-layer circuit modules could result in  
expensive damage to your system.  
Repairing Power Supplies  
GVG does not recommend or support field repair of Model 2200 power  
supplies. Failed power supplies should be replaced.

Section 4 — Maintenance  
WARNING  
Remove all rings and other jewelry when you are working on equipment that  
is powered up. Hazardous currents are present in the power supplies, on the  
backplane, and on circuit modules. Failure to follow this precaution could  
result in severe shock and other injury.  
Only qualified service personnel should work on the control panel and  
switcher power supply assemblies. Failure to observe this precaution could  
result in severe shock or expensive damage to your equipment.  
Model 2200 Power Supply Configurations  
The standard power supply configuration for the Model 2200 is a single  
supply chassis for the Signal Processor Frame and single supply for the  
Control Panel. These power supplies are separately connected to AC  
source power.  
The Control Panel and Signal Processing Frame can each, optionally, be  
configured with a second (redundant) power supply.  
The redundant supply for the Signal Processing Frame is identical to the  
standard supply. It is installed, in the rack below, and in tandem with the  
first. They are configured to share the current load, and the failure of a  
single supply should not cause a switcher failure.  
When the Control Panel is configured with redundant power supplies,  
both supplies are installed inside the main control panel tub.  
Frame Power Supply Assemblies  
Each Signal Processor Power Supply assembly for a Model 2200 Switcher  
consists of a rack-mounted frame (assembly number 098901-XX)  
containing a Multi-Output Power Supply unit and a high-current +5 Volt  
Power Supply unit. The assembly number of the power supply frame is  
noted on the back of the frame. Grass Valley assembles and tests the power  
supplies; however, the individual power units in the power supplies are  
manufactured by other suppliers.  
There are two suppliers of the individual power supply units—Pioneer  
Magnetics and Todd Products Corporation. Differences between the units  
and important notes about them will be presented here for ease of  
installation.

Servicing Precautions  
It is important to know what type of power units you have for the reasons  
listed below:  
1. Because of differences in the electronic design, it is not possible to  
operate Pioneer and Todd power units of the same type in a redundant  
power supply configuration. In other words, you may not connect a  
Pioneer Multi-Output unit in parallel with a Todd Multi-Output unit,  
and you may not connect a Pioneer +5 Volt unit in parallel with a Todd  
+5 Volt unit.  
2. A Model 2200 switcher with Todd power supply units may operate on  
110VAC. Pioneer supply units must always operate on 220VAC.  
3. Todd +5V power supply units are internally wired for power surge  
protection, Pioneer +5V power supply units are not. There is a jumper  
in the Model 2200 fan assembly at the top of the Signal Processor Frame  
which must be set to either bypass or enable a surge protection circuit  
depending on the type of unit present. Refer to the “Fan Jumper  
Settings” heading in Section 2 in this manual.  
Before replacing your power supply, you will need to determine the type  
of supply units you have. To do this:  
1. Locate the assembly number sticker on the back of the power supply  
frame. Systems with Pioneer power units will have power supply  
frames numbered 098901-00 or -01. Systems with Todd power units  
will have frames labeled 098901-03.  
2. Remove the back covers on the left and right sides of the primary and/  
or redundant power supply frames. Leave the covers off for installation  
purposes later.  
You may distinguish between a Todd supply and a Pioneer supply as  
follows:  
Viewed from the front, both +5 V and Multi-Output Pioneer units are  
each about 5 inches wide, and each has a 4 1/ 2 inch diameter fan.  
The Todd +5 V unit (on the left) is about 3 1/ 2 inches wide. The Multi-  
Output supply is slightly narrower. Each supply has two cooling fans.  
From the rear, the Todd and Pioneer +5 Volt units can also be identified  
by the positions of the large power lugs on the rear of the supplies.  
They are arranged horizontally on the Pioneer supplies, and diagonally  
on the Todd supplies. For clarity however, both types of supplies will  
be illustrated in this manual in most cases.

Section 4 — Maintenance  
WARNING  
The chassis weighs approximately 125 lbs. It should be moved only by two  
persons or with the aid of some type of mechanical lifting device. Failure to  
follow this precaution could result in injury or damage to the equipment.  
6. Place a wheeled cart or some appropriate support in the front of the  
power supply chassis to support it as it is removed.  
7. Release the chassis from the rack by removing the screws at the front of  
the chassis at the left and right hand lip. See Figure 4-1.  
WARNING  
If the equipment rack is not securely bolted down to the floor, do not extend  
it on its mounting rails.The weight of the power supply chassis, when  
extended on the mounting rails, is enough to topple the equipment rack if it  
is not bolted down or otherwise supported. Failure to follow this precaution  
could result in injury or damage to the equipment.  
8. While guiding the heavy cables at the right rear through the cut-out in  
the chassis, pull the chassis out on its mounting rails until they are fully  
extended.  
9. Release the chassis from the rails by locating and pressing the two  
release buttons (one on each rail).  
10. Using two persons or an appropriate lifting device, remove the chassis  
from the mounting rails.  
WARNING  
If you are replacing a power supply in a system using a primary and a  
redundant power supply, make sure the power supply units in the  
replacement supply are of the same type (Pioneer or Todd) as the existing  
supply. See page 4-4 of this section for more information.  
11. To reinstall the power supply or install a replacement supply reverse  
the previous steps.

Servicing Precautions  
Replacement of Individual Power Supply Assemblies  
If it is necessary to replace an individual power supply in the Signal  
Processor Frame Power Supply, it is important for you to be aware of the  
following information:  
Two types of power supplies are used in the Signal Processor Frame  
Power Supply for the 2200 Switchers—a Multi-Output supply and a  
high-current +5 Volt supply.  
Power supply units from two different manufacturers—Pioneer  
Magnetics and Todd Products Corporation—have been used in the  
Signal Processor Frame Power Supplies.  
The units from the two manufacturers are very different in appearance, but  
are electrically compatible, with the following exception:  
In a redundant power system, the two +5 Volt supplies must be of the  
same “make” and the two Multi-Output supplies must be of the same  
make. (The +5 Volt and Multi-Output supplies, however, may be of  
different makes.)  
This means that if you need to replace one power supply assembly in a  
redundant power system, you must either replace that supply with one  
of the same make, or replace both supplies that operate in parallel.  
Check to see that your replacement is compatible in a redundant system,  
and, if necessary, contact Grass Valley Customer Service.  
NOTE: In a non-redundant power system, if both power supply units (one Multi-  
Output and one +5V) in the single power supply frame are Todd supplies, the  
frame can be wired to operate on 110 volts, as described in the Installation Section  
of this manual.  
Configurations  
Each power supply comes as a complete assembly (“sled”) that must be  
replaced as a unit. As viewed from the rear of the frame, the +5 Volt supply  
assembly is located in the compartment at the right side of the chassis and  
the Multi-Output (+13V/ –13V/ –5.2V/ +48V) supply is located in the  
compartment at the left.

Section 4 — Maintenance  
Procedures  
The following procedures (one for the Multi-Output supply and one for the  
+5 Volt supply) describe replacing Pioneer power supply assemblies with  
Todd power supply assemblies.  
For any of the other three possible replacements—replacing a Pioneer unit  
with a Pioneer, replacing a Todd unit with a Todd, or replacing a Todd unit  
with a Pioneer—use the following procedures as guides and perform the  
appropriate steps.  
Replacement of Multi-Output Power Supply Assembly  
NOTE: In order to replace a Pioneer Multi-Output supply with a Todd Multi-  
Output supply, you will need to have the installation kit that is part of Field  
Modification Note FM2025.  
To replace a Pioneer Multi-Output assembly with a Todd Multi-Output  
assembly, proceed as follows:  
1. On the front panel of the main Signal Processor Frame Power Supply,  
turn off the main power switch. The indicator LEDs on the front panel  
will go out.  
If there is a Redundant Signal Processor Frame Power Supply, also turn  
off its main power switch.  
2. Inside the switcher Control Panel, turn off the main Control Panel  
Power Supply switch and (if present) the redundant Control Panel  
Power Supply switch.  
3. At the rear of the equipment rack, disconnect AC power from the Signal  
Processor Frame Power Supply by unplugging the cable from the AC  
power source.  
If there is a redundant Signal Processor Frame Power Supply, also  
disconnect it from the AC power source.  
WARNING  
If a redundant power supply is installed, power to both supplies must be  
disconnected, due to the interconnecting wiring.

Servicing Precautions  
Removal of Pioneer Multi-Output Supply  
1. Remove the left rear cover of the power supply frame, as viewed from  
the rear, to expose the wiring connections at the rear of the Multi-  
Output power unit. See Figure 4-3.  
If this is the upper power supply in a redundant power system, also  
remove the left rear cover of the lower power supply.  
2. Disconnect the two connectors that plug into the jacks at the top of the  
left rear compartment. (Hint: To release the connectors, squeeze the  
near and far side tabs on the large connector, and the left and right side  
tabs on the four-wire connector.  
If this is the upper power supply in a redundant power system, also  
disconnect the corresponding two plugs in the lower power supply  
frame.  
3. Unplug the small multiwire connector that connects to the top of the  
circuit board containing the power supply indicator LEDs.  
4. At the upper right of the compartment, on the rear of the power supply  
unit, remove the terminal block cover (if present) and disconnect the  
blue and brown wires from the terminal block. The green/ yellow wire  
may be left in place.

8. Carefully slide the supply assembly forward, out of the frame, taking  
care that the wiring follows freely.  
Installation of Todd Multi-Output Supply  
Installation of the replacement supply is not a simple reversal of the  
removal procedure. The reason for this is that the AC power connection on  
the Todd supply is at the upper left corner of the unit, whereas the  
connection on the Pioneer supply is at the upper right.

information in Section 2 of this manual.  
Fan Jumper Setting  
There is a jumper on the small circuit board (064851) in the fan assembly at  
the top of the rack for Model 2200 Switchers. This jumper must be in the  
correct position for proper operation of these switchers.  
1. Loosen the retaining screws of the fan assembly and pull the assembly  
out of the rack.  
2. Check the position of the BYPASS/ PROTECT jumper.  
a. For the Todd +5 Volt power supplies, set the jumper to the BYPASS  
position. The Todd supplies have internal protection. They will not  
operate with the jumper in PROTECT mode.  
b. For the Pioneer +5 Volt power supplies, set the jumper to the  
PROTECT position. The jumper, in PROTECT position, is intended  
to prevent a harmful surge should the Pioneer +5 V supply be  
accidentally shorted.

Switcher Frame Module Precautions  
Switcher Frame Module Precautions  
The locations of the switcher frame bays and circuit modules are illustrated  
are slide-in units that are easily removed and replaced.  
The existing setup of the switcher is lost when power to a switcher frame is  
turned off. E-MEM and switcher configuration are not lost because they are  
stored in non-volatile RAM. If you wish to save the switcher setup, save the  
setup to an E-MEM. It is recommended that power to the frame be turned  
off whenever any modules are to be removed or reinstalled.  
If a Signal Processor module is removed or installed while the power is on,  
no damage occurs to the module or to the system, but microprocessor  
messages may get scrambled, resulting in operational problems. If this  
happens, the only sure way to restore proper operation is to turn the  
switcher frame off, wait a few seconds, and turn it back on again. The  
power-up sequence will synchronize the microprocessors.  
It is recommended that the power to the switcher frame be turned off  
whenever modules are removed or replaced.  
WARNING  
High current capability is present in the switcher frame. Remove all rings and  
other jewelry when working switcher frame, and use caution when using  
metal tools in the vicinity of power buses.  
CAUTION  
Many of the circuit modules in the switcher frame are sensitive to static discharge.  
Failure to use proper static-control procedures while working on circuit modules  
may cause data loss and/or destruction of static-sensitive devices.
