Rack-Mount Safety Instructions
1) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment might be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
2) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Stage 48 airflow is from the front of the chassis enclosure to the rear. Make allowances for cooling air to be available to the front panel surface and no restrictions at the rear.
3) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that ahazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of power strips).

Snake Act and Sig LEDs
Power and Status LED Indicators
Each primary and redundant snake connection has its own Activ­ity (Act) and Signal (Sig) LEDs. The system is ready for use when all Stage 48 units are connected and all Act and Sig LEDs are lit solid.
Act LED
The Act (activity) LED lights solid to indicate that AVB Ethernet traffic is currently active on the connected Snake. If a redundant snake is connected, then both primary and redundant Act LEDs will be lit for each Stage 48.
Sig LED
The Sig (signal) LED lights solid to indicate that a valid commu­nication connection exists between the Stage 48 and console. If a redundant snake is connected, then both primary and redundant Sig LEDs will be lit for each Stage 48.
If the Sig LED does not light after you have connected a Stage 48, make sure the ID switches on any connected Stage 48 units are set properly.
ID Switch
The ID switch sets the internal ID of the Stage 48. Select 1 when connected to ports labeled “Stage 1” on the SC48 Ethernet Snake card. When using two Stage 48 units, set the ID switch to 2 on the second Stage 48 (the Stage 48 connected to the port labeled “Stage 2” on the SC48 Ethernet Snake card).
The Power and Status LEDs light green, yellow, or red to indicate the status of Stage 48.
See “Power and Status LED Indicators” on page 23 for more information on Stage 48 Power and Status LED codes.
Recessed Pushbutton
The Recessed Pushbutton either resets the Stage 48 or initiates a firmware update, depending on how long the button is held when pressed:
• Pressing and holding the Recessed Pushbutton between one (1) and five (5) seconds resets Stage 48. Use this to power cycle Stage 48 if the power switch is inaccessible.
• Pressing and holding the Recessed Pushbutton for at least five (5) seconds puts Stage 48 in firmware update mode. The Status LED flashes green.
If you have entered firmware update mode by accident, you can reset Stage 48 by power cycling the unit using the back panel Power switch.

Chapter 4: Configuring and Installing I/O in Stage 48
This section shows how your system can be configured, how to remove Stage I/O from Mix Rack and SC48, and how to install compatible VENUE Stage I/O cards in Stage 48.
The following Stage I/O cards are compatible with Stage 48.
• AI16 Analog Input card
• AO16 Analog Output card
• XO16 Analog/Digital Output card
• AT16 A-Net Output card
The VENUE IO16 and IOx Option cards cannot be installed Stage 48. However, IO16 and IOx cards can be installed in Mix Rack or SC48 to expand your system’s overall I/O ca­pacity.
Configuring Stage I/O
How you configure Stage I/O in Stage 48 depends on the current configuration of your system. Mix Rack and SC48 systems sup­port up to 48 Stage inputs (three Stage input cards) and 32 Stage outputs (two Stage output cards) of combined local and remote Stage I/O. Local Stage I/O is Stage I/O installed in Mix Rack or SC48; remote Stage I/O is Stage I/O installed in Stage 48.
Stage I/O are inputs and outputs that are available under the Stage tabs in the VENUE Patchbay.
Adding a Second Stage 48 to Remote Systems
If you already have a remote system, you can expand the Stage I/O capacity of your system by adding a second Stage 48 and in­stalling compatible Stage I/O cards in it.
Converting a Standard SC48
If you have a standard SC48 console, it can be converted for use with Stage 48 remote stage boxes. Some or all existing Stage I/O cards are removed from SC48 and installed in up to two Stage 48 units, up to the maximum Stage I/O capacity of SC48 systems.
Converting an SC48 to an SC48 Remote system can only be done by Avid-authorized service personnel. However, own­ers are authorized to remove Stage I/O cards from SC48 and install them into Stage 48.
The following table shows the supported I/O card configurations for SC48 when converting to remote:
