Using the Avid Mojo DNA
Overview
The Avid Mojo DNA is designed to capture and output analog media and
digital media (DV 25) using digital decks and cameras.
The Avid Mojo DNA is powered by an autosensing power adapter that
plugs into a wall plug or power strip.
The Avid Mojo DNA accepts video and audio in different formats and
resolutions, and changes these formats and resolutions to Avid-specific
data for transfer to the Avid editing system over a 1394 cable. The data
transfer uses an Avid-specific protocol that describes the format and
resolution of the data being input.
You then edit the data on the Avid editing system and return it to the Avid
Mojo DNA to be changed back to the proper format and resolution as
needed for video and audio output.
n
To capture and play 1:1 video, you must have an Avid Mojo connected to
your system. Disconnecting the Avid Mojo results in a “Wrong Format”
error message for those 1:1 clips. However, without an Avid Mojo
attached, you can transcode your 1:1 video clips to DV 25 or 15:1s. For
more information, see “Using the Transcode Option” in the Help.
The Avid Mojo DNA consists of:
•The Avid Mojo DNA
•A stand
• A power adapter with power cord
Also included in the kit is a 6-pin to 6-pin 1394 cable that connects the
Avid Mojo to the host system platform and a Using the Avid Mojo DNA
CD-ROM.
You can also order a special adapter cable that allows you to send a
component signal into or out of the Avid Mojo using both the S-Video and
composite connectors at the rear of the Avid Mojo.

Synchronizing Audio and Video Equipment
Avid systems require synchronization when inputting audio and video. A
synchronization signal for analog audio and analog video is generated
internally by the Avid Mojo DNA from one of the following three sources:
• Internal — The signal is generated by the Avid Mojo DNA internally.
This signal cannot be sent outside of the Avid Mojo DNA.
• Incoming video signal — The sync signal is generated from the
incoming video: component, composite, or S-Video.
• Video Reference IN (Ref) — The sync signal should be used when
you are capturing analog audio only. It should be generated from the
incoming signal (black burst generator [BBGen] or house sync). If
there is no sync connected to REF, the internal sync is used by default
to sync the incoming audio.
Power-On Self-Tests
n
By default, the sync signal is generated from incoming video whenever you
capture analog video. Depending on the configuration of the audio and
video equipment attached to the Avid Mojo DNA, you might need to use a
black burst generator or house sync; for example, when you perform an
Insert Edit.
Power-On Self-Tests
The Avid Mojo DNA runs power-on self-tests (POSTs) to determine if the
box and the board within the box are operating properly each time you turn
it on.
If a failure occurs when running a POST, the Clip LED (see Figure 2)
blinks steadily once a second. Also, if the Power LED does not light after
you connect the Avid Mojo DNA to the power adapter, the Avid Mojo
DNA is not capable of running diagnostics and is not functioning properly.
If possible, try another power adapter. If the Avid Mojo DNA does not
work with a different power adapter, replace the Avid Mojo DNA.

Connecting Peripheral Equipment
There are several possible cabling configurations depending on your
camera, video deck, and client monitor. The audio and video output signals
are available to each output connector at the same time. Video and audio
cables are not included with the Avid Mojo DNA. Avid provides optional
video cables that use the S-Video and Composite video connectors for a
component connection to your deck. The following sections describe
several possible connections:
• Connecting Audio Signals

18
Using Striped Drives on Mac OS X and Mac OS 9.x Systems
The Avid editing software automatically recognizes drives that were
striped on Mac OS 9.x. You should be able to use these drives to edit and
play video. However, if you move a drive that was striped on a Mac OS X
system back to Mac OS 9.x, you cannot play video from the drives on
Mac OS 9.x. If necessary, you can set up your Mac OS 9.x system so that it
recognizes the drives. You can then copy media files from the drive to your
Mac OS 9.x drives.
To set up a Mac OS 9.x system to recognize drives that were striped
on a Mac OS X system:
1. Navigate to the following folder:
Applications/Avid Goodies/OS 9/System Folder/Extensions
2. Copy the file ~~ExpressStripe_OS9_Enablr to the Extensions folder
on your Mac OS 9 system.
3. Restart the Mac OS 9 system.
The system is now able to recognize the striped drives. You can use the
drives to copy media onto your Mac OS 9 drives.

c
Moving Striped Drives to Another System (Macintosh Only)
Do not run a Mac OS 9 Avid editing application on the same system as
a Mac OS X Avid editing system. There might be conflicts between the
system files used by the two applications.
In order to move striped drives to another system, you need to be able to
identify the drives that make up a particular striped set. This was easy on
Mac OS 9 because the system allowed you to use the SCSI ID order when
striping drives.
On Mac OS X, the system does not use the SCSI ID but instead uses its
internal diskn name (where n is the drive number) when creating the
striped sets. You can use Avid Storage Manager or ExpressStripe to
identify a striped set on Mac OS X.
