RODUCT OVERVIEW

PESA’s Cheetah Series Video Matrix Switcher products are manufactured using a “building block”
architecture of core components installed in a chassis frame that provides the infrastructure
requirements of circuit card capacity, power, cooling and system control I/O connections. There are
several different types of chassis frames in the Cheetah family, of which the 864XR is a member. Each
frame is designed for a specific purpose – but most are built with a degree of flexibility to accommodate
as wide a range of customer needs as possible.

While all frames do indeed serve the same basic purpose – to house the switcher “building block”
components and provide the system infrastructure – component layout, internal signal routing through
backplanes and mid-planes and frame-specific power supply components vary greatly between the
frames. For this reason each frame type in the Cheetah family has its own Technical Manual Volume.
All frame-specific data such as the items just mentioned plus connector locations, pin-outs and other
pertinent information peculiar to the 864XR frame is contained in this Technical Manual.

Using the 864 XR frame and the Cheetah 144X144 Matrix CCA a routing switcher with the capacity of
up to 864 inputs and 864 outputs can be configured in a single 41 rack unit (RU) frame. Table 2-1
indicates the maximum number of each core component type that can be installed in the 864XR frame.
Figure 2-1 is a front view of the chassis layout with the access door open. Figure 2-2 is a rear view of
the 864XR frame.

2.2 R

The 864XR Frame is configured using combinations of the following Core System Components:
Input Circuit Card Assembly

Matrix Circuit Card Assembly
Output Circuit Card Assembly
Power Supply Module
Control System (System Controller CCA and Frame Controller CCA)
Each core component is identified and a very brief look at the function of each is provided in the

following paragraphs.

2.2.1 I

As the name implies, the Input Circuit Card Assembly (CCA), often referred to simply as the input card,
is the entry point for video signals into the routing switcher matrix. Each input card accepts up to 16
video input signals from various sources. There are six input card variations in the Cheetah Series
product line, to accommodate different input signal types.

Each input card, regardless of signal type, contains the cable equalization circuitry, buffer amplifiers
and signal drivers used to condition the incoming signal prior to entering the switching matrix. Each
input card also contains circuitry to monitor the status of the input channels, power rails and other
operational functions.

EVIEW OF CORE SYSTEM COMPONENTS

NPUT CIRCUIT CARD ASSEMBLY

Input cards are physically attached to the rear panel of the chassis frame and provide the input
connectors for attaching signals to the switcher. Each card is equipped with two status LEDs on the edge
of the assembly close to the bottom input connectors. The user can very quickly perform a visual
assessment of the status of the input cards by observing the state of the LEDs.

2.2.2 M

Each Matrix Card is where the actual crosspoint switching function takes place. In all Cheetah
variations, the matrix cards are installed inside the chassis frame and are accessible by opening the front
access door. Each card is equipped with LEDs on the assembly edge so that the user can quickly assess
the status of each matrix card in the system with a visual inspection.

2.2.3 O

The Output Card is the exit point for video signals leaving the routing switcher and each card provides
up to 16 video output channels. There are seven output card variations to accommodate different signal
output types.

Each output card contains the necessary channel combiner circuitry, buffer amplifiers, re-clocking
circuitry and driver amplifiers to generate the signal output for each channel. Voltage comparators
monitor the status of the power rails. On-board programmed logic circuitry interprets data from the
comparators along with data relevant to the status of the output channels and other card operational
functions to provide a real-time status monitor as to the health of each output card.

Output cards are physically attached to the rear panel of the chassis frame and provide the connectors
for accessing the signal outputs from the switcher. Each card is equipped with two status LEDs on the
edge of the assembly close to the bottom connectors. The user can very quickly perform a visual
assessment of the status of the output cards by observing the state of the LEDs.

Cheetah video routing switchers use common 600 Watt power supply modules that provide a fully
regulated source of +28 VDC @ 22A for powering system components. The number of power supply
modules used in a frame is dependent on several factors including the number of input, matrix and
output cards required for system capacity and whether or not power redundancy is desired. Up to 8
Power Supply Modules may be installed in the 864XR Frame.

All of the power supply modules are physically and electrically identical. Each module is “hot­swappable” for easy removal and replacement without any disruption of switcher outputs. Circuitry
internal to the power supply continuously monitors the operational parameters, output voltage and
current level and the module operating temperature. Three LED display devices on the front panel of
each module allow the user to quickly perform a visual assessment of the status of each supply module
by observing the state of the LEDs.

2.2.5 C

Every switcher configuration requires a Control System. In the Cheetah family there are two core
components of the control system that reside within the chassis frame: the System Controller Card and
the Frame Controller Card.

The System Controller Card resides in the matrix switcher frame, however the term System Controller
refers collectively to the System Controller CCA and its associated board-resident firmware and a
software application that runs on a Microsoft Windows based PC platform. In the Cheetah product line
there are two variations of System Controllers: the 3500PRO and the PERC2000. Regardless of which
control system is used (3500 or PERC), at least one system controller card must be installed in the
chassis frame. Each chassis frame can support up to two system controller cards although only one
controller card is required. A second system controller card may be installed for redundancy capability.

OWER SUPPLY MODULE

ONTROL SYSTEM

The Frame Controller Card also resides in the matrix switcher frame. Just as with the system controller
card, each chassis frame can support up to two frame controller cards, although only one is required. A
second frame controller card may be installed for redundancy capability.

Consider the System Controller to be the master overseer of the entire system. The system controller
card communicates bi-directionally with the frame controller circuitry. Think of the Frame Controller
as a slave that is subservient to its master – the System Controller. The Frame Controller circuitry
orchestrates all system switching commands and all other control functions for the entire switcher
frame. It is the job of the System Controller to keep the entire system running as it is programmed to
do. The System Controller provides programming functions and interface functions to various types of
control panels that may be used by facility operators to control operations of the entire switching
system. Also, the system may be operated from a Windows based PC interfaced to the system
controller and running the controller software application.

2.2.6 B

Note in Figure 2-1 that there are two power supply modules residing on each power supply backplane
along with an 8-position DIP switch; and four matrix cards residing on each matrix backplane along
with six rotary switches (S1 thru S6). In addition to the switches on the backplanes, also note the ten
rotary switches used for chassis strobe configuration.

Figure 2-2 illustrates the rear panel of the chassis frame where the input and output cards are installed.
Note in this figure that up to four input or output cards may reside on each I/O Backplane and that each
backplane contains an 8-position DIP switch.

The DIP switches and rotary switches on the various backplanes and in the chassis frame are factory set
to assign operational parameters to the system components. The switch settings assign such things as
what channel numbers a bank of input or output cards will service, frame type, number of cooling fans,
etc. Although the switches are set at the factory for every system, a guide to the proper settings for each
switch peculiar to the 864XR Frame is included in Chapter 5 of this manual. This scheme of assigning
identification to the backplane and interface ports allows full interchangeability between like CCAs in
the system.

In every frame variation the input cards and the output cards are loaded through the rear panel card
chassis into mating connectors located on an I/O backplane. Each card chassis is configured using I/O
backplanes with four cards installed to each. All slots may or may not be used in a particular system
dependent on the number of input and output channels and whether or not the output cards are fitted
with option cards. When option cards are used, each output card will occupy two slots in the card
chassis. In a typical Cheetah system, the input cards and output cards will be co-resident in the card
chassis. Be aware that although input cards and output cards can be co-resident in the card chassis, they
CAN NOT be co-resident on the same backplane. Each I/O backplane in the chassis is designated as
either an input or an output backplane.

The following steps should be performed to reduce the weight of the system thus making it slightly
easier to maneuver.

1. Have the wooden shipping crate standing upright before opening the crate.

2. Remove all the lag bolts from the top and sides of the wooden crate.

3. Using ESD precautions, remove the power supply modules from the top of the unit.

Prior to performing the next sequence, careful measurements should be
completed to insure the proper location and alignment of equipment rack’s
screw holes to the Cheetah chassis.

4. Using a pallet jack or similar equipment, align and place the 864XR Chassis as close as possible

to the equipment rack opening where it will be installed.

5. Using as much manpower as necessary, CAREFULLY move the 864XR chassis from the

wooden pallet to the equipment rack and slide the chassis into position in the rack.

6. With the chassis installed in the equipment rack, install the rack screws in the chassis ensuring

that the unit is firmly and adequately secured to the equipment rack.

ONNECT EQUIPMENT CABLES

Once the Cheetah Video Matrix Frame is installed in the equipment rack, the associated system
connections can be completed. The order of completion of installation steps is not critical, however,
DO NOT apply power to a frame until all of the video signal, sync and control cables have been
installed and their connections verified for proper placement and accuracy. Use the following guide to
insure that all connections are made properly and that power, system interconnect and video signal
cables are correctly installed.

Use the following guidelines when connecting equipment cables:

Install the equipment in the rack before connecting cables.
Relieve strain on all cables to prevent connector separation.
To the greatest extent possible, separate control, signal, and power cables to minimize any possible

crosstalk or interference.

Use as many cable ties as necessary to secure cables to the rack, as shown in Figure 3-1. This will
provide cable strain relief and help route cables away from hazardous areas.

Route cables away from physical traffic areas to avoid creating a safety hazard (trip or shock).

Figure 3-5 - International Power Supplies Configuration

In each Cheetah assembly, the entire power supply backplane is divided in half and each half is powered
and isolated separately. The following apply to the Cheetah international supply power inputs:

•

Two banks of power supplies are required in each Cheetah switcher assembly and each bank

must be capable of supplying ALL of the power that is required by the specific Cheetah

switcher.

•

Both banks must be powered under normal conditions.

•

Loss of either AC supply power feed is considered a fault condition.

•

When experiencing a loss of one AC supply power feed (fault condition), the remaining

supplies will typically operate at 100% of their rated load. An increase in chassis operating

temperature is normal as the supplies are typically changing from approximately 50% load to

approximately 100% of their rated load.

WARNING: The maximum applied voltage between any leg of either of
the isolated AC power inputs must not exceed 250VAC. In addition, the
maximum applied voltage between any leg of one AC input and any leg of

That is, whenever two phases of a three-phase power source is applied using
different phases on each power input, the voltage between the phases must
not exceed 380VAC nominal. Failure to heed this warning will result in
serious equipment damage.

IDEO INPUT/OUTPUT CONNECTIONS

Once the rack frame is mounted and primary power connections have been completed, connecting the
video input and output signals is the next step. Figure 3-6 illustrates the entire rear panel of the router
and features a quick reference guide to the input and output connector configuration. Figures 3-7, 3-8
and 3-9 provide a closer and more detailed view of the rear panel input and output connectors divided
into sections from the top of the switcher to the bottom. Use these references when making video I/O
connections to the 864XR router.

PESA recommends that you make a layout plan and connection drawing to document I/O connections
to the router and follow this drawing when attaching video connectors to the input and output cards.
Retain this documentation in a safe place in the event that service to the router should ever be needed.
PESA also recommends that you label each video cable to identify its source or destination.

When the video I/O connections are completed, connecting the various system control and operational
signals is the next step. The following paragraphs identify and define the operational and control
connection points. Follow the information contained in each paragraph carefully when making control
and system I/O connections to the 864XR router.

PESA recommends that you make a layout plan and connection drawing to document system
connections to the router and follow this drawing when attaching cabling to the rear panel connectors
of the router. Retain this documentation in a safe place in the event that service to the router should
ever be needed. PESA also recommends that you label each cable to identify its source or destination.

• COM 1 is the primary RS-232 CPU Link and may be connected to a PC running the Cheetah

Control System software, such as PERC2000, with a null modem cable (Part No. 81-9028­0393-0). Alternatively, COM 1 may be connected to an external control device.

COM 1 may only be used with the P1E protocol at either 9600 or 38,400 baud. Set the baud
rate with a switch on the controller board. Make sure the communication rate for COM 1 in the
software matches the baud rate selected on the circuit card (in the software, select System >
Communications).

• COM 2 is a secondary RS-232 CPU Link, which may also be connected to a PC or an external

control device. COM 2 may be used with either of the protocols shown in Table 3-4 and may
operate at either 9600 or 38,400 baud. Set the baud rate with a switch on the controller board.

YSTEM CONTROL ALARM CONNECTOR

The three-pin System Control Alarm Connector, illustrated in Figure 3-12, provides an interface for
an external, customer-supplied system control alarm notification device. An alarm condition is
initiated by the system controller and is declared when the controller is in reset and when the standby
controller is gathering configuration information from the primary controller. During an alarm
condition, an optically isolated, electronically closed circuit exists between contacts 2 and 1 as shown
in Figure 3-13. This circuit acts as a switch to trigger an optional external alarm in the event of a
controller fault or failure. The controller alarm circuit supplies an electronic contact closure, but does
not provide a voltage to the external alarm. The customer-supplied circuitry must not exceed
12VDC @ 10mA.

The alarm is activated if the control system detects any of the following conditions:

• Encounters an interrupt that it does not expect or can not process

• Is unable to synchronize with the redundant system controller (dual controller installations)

• Does not receive configuration data from the redundant system controller (dual controller

installations)

The customer supplied external alarm circuit is connected with a cable constructed as shown in Figure

ETWORK CONNECTORS

The rear panel RJ-45 Ethernet connectors, illustrated in Figure 3-18, interface the Matrix Frame
Controller CCA(s) and the System Controller CCA(s) mounted in the 864XR chassis to external
system components over a 10 or 100Mb/s TCP/IP network. You will notice there are two connectors
for both Frame Control and System Control, one labeled Slot A and the other labeled Slot B. This
nomenclature identifies which card is communicating through each connector. For example, the rear
panel RJ-45 Connector labeled System Control, Slot A attaches to the system controller CCA installed
in System Controller Slot A of the 864XR chassis, refer to Figure 3-20. Likewise, the rear panel
connector labeled Frame Control, Slot B attaches to the Frame Controller CCA installed in Frame
Controller Slot B, etc. Note that two frame or system controller CCAs may not be present in all
chassis. Two CCAs of each type are used in systems equipped for control system redundancy. In
systems where only one frame or system controller CCA is used, ensure that the Ethernet cable is
attached to the rear panel connector corresponding to the chassis slot in which the card is installed.

Every frame in a Cheetah routing system requires a frame controller and a system controller. The
network connectors allow a control network to be installed between PESA components such that, for
example, a system controller CCA installed in an 864XR frame may also communicate with and
control frame controllers in other Cheetah Video Matrix routers or a DRS Audio Router. Likewise,
using the Frame Control Ethernet Connectors allows the frame controller CCA in the 864XR chassis
to communicate with a system controller CCA installed in another Cheetah router, or a stand-alone
rack-mount System Controller Chassis.

Chapter 4: Frame And Control Verification

This section addresses the system components, frame, and control verification sequences that should be
performed prior to energizing the system and placing the system in service. Attention to this section will
minimize system startup and in-service malfunctions.

4.1 S

4.2 S

YSTEM PRE-START VERIFICATION CHECKLIST

A system pre-start verification checklist includes a visual inspection to account for basic setup functions
that, if incorrect, could result in immediate system startup malfunctions. The following basic checks
should be performed prior to energizing any Cheetah chassis:

1) Verify main power source is OFF (de-energized).

2) Verify chassis breakers are in the OFF position.

3) Verify all cards/modules are latched and secure.

4) Verify all blank covers are in place and secure (no open slots in the frame).

5) Verify power cables are properly connected to primary power distribution system.

6) Inspect for unusual items such as loose wiring, frayed cabling, loose connections or components,

and missing cards/modules (basically, check for anything that seems out of place or could present
a problem).

7) Proceed to System Startup.

YSTEM STARTUP

Perform the system startup sequence as follows:

1) Energize main power source to chassis.

2) Place both chassis breakers in the ON position (handles should be in the UP position).

There is a 30 to 45 second delay prior to the system energizing frame components.
Following this delay period the system will energize and the circuit cards and modules
will perform initial self-diagnostics.

3) Verify the following LED conditions:

Should any status LED indicate an error on the card or module, perform
troubleshooting sequences to correct the problem(s) prior to placing the
system in service.

a. Observe each Power Supply module and verify the Power OK LED is illuminated

(green)

b. Observe each 144x144 Matrix module and verify status of the following LEDs:

d. On the Output Monitor module (if present), the Power OK LED is illuminated

(green).

e. On each of the Input and Output modules, the Power LED is illuminated (green).
f. If installed and on the 3500 Series System Controller module(s), the following

conditions exist:

1) Dual 3500 Series System Controller module configurations:

•

If both 3500 Series System Controller modules’ active/standby switches
are in the Standby or Active position, then Frame Slot A determines the
active module. Otherwise, the active module is selected by the
individual module’s switch settings.

2) Any 3500 Series System Controller configuration, the Active (amber – on the
active module) and Run (green) LEDs are illuminated.

At the end of this sequence, there should be no LED indicators that are
blinking or any red LEDs illuminated on any of the I/O and Matrix
modules/cards. If so, perform troubleshooting to correct the status before
proceeding to the next section.

RAME CONTROL VERIFICATION

RAME CONTROL VERIFICATION OVERVIEW

Frame control verification is performed to verify proper operation of chassis components and
isolate abnormalities prior to connecting peripheral equipment to the system. This
verification sequence is performed using the ViewPort Diagnostic Software, supplied with
your Cheetah 864XR Frame. The graphic user interface (GUI) provided by ViewPort
provides a logical, straight-forward diagnostic tool for the user that communicates directly
with the chassis Matrix Frame Controller (MFC). The following equipment/documentation is
required:

•

A Windows based PC loaded with PESA’s ViewPort software.

•

A null-modem serial cable (length determined by distance the PC will be from the
chassis)

•

ViewPort Technical Manual (P/N 81-9059-0558-0)

•

Packing list or other specification sheet that accompanied shipment of the 864XR
chassis.

RAME STROBE SETTING VERIFICATION

While referring to the appropriate Chapter for the frame that is being verified, document and
archive the frame’s present strobe settings as follows: Using Figure 5-?? as a reference,
locate the chassis strobe rotary switches. Verify that the switches are in the positions
indicated by Figure 5-??. These switches are set at the factory and should never need to be
changed. Proper setting of these switches is absolutely critical for proper operation of the
video matrix.

4.3.3 F

RAME CONTROL VERIFICATION PROCEDURE

Perform the following sequence:

1) If not already completed, perform the chassis pre-start verification checks and startup

sequences as outlined in Paragraphs 4-1 and 4-2 of this manual.

2) Open the access door to gain access to the front of the 864XR chassis components.

3) With the chassis energized (ON), refer to Figure 4-1 and carefully connect the null-modem

serial cable to the DB-9 serial connection port located on the Frame Controller card and the
serial port of the PC running the ViewPort software.

YSTEM CONTROL

YSTEM CONTROL OVERVIEW

This subsection only applies to Cheetah Series systems that are equipped with
3500 Series card(s)/module(s).

The 3500 Series System Controller is full-featured, microprocessor-based unit that is
designed to interface with various configurations of PESA video and audio routing switchers.
The 3500 Series System Controller, working in conjunction with the 3500 Series Control
System software, provides a Graphic User Interface (GUI) that enables users to configure and
operate a routing switcher system from a standard IBM-compatible Personal Computer (PC).
Both the 3500 Series System Controller and the 3500 Series Control System software are
inherently flexible and easily configured. The 3500 Series LE has a smaller feature set and is
designed for smaller systems.

This subsection addresses the initial user communication setup, the onboard firmware
configuration, and initial settings for the specific Cheetah Series chassis system(s) that will be
placed in service. Additional reference materials for this section are included in the following

YSTEM CONTROL VERIFICATION PROCEDURE

Perform the following sequence (hot-swap):

1) Perform the pre-start sequences as outlined in Sections 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 of this

Chapter.

2) Remove the 3500 Series card(s) and verify the S1 dipswitch (see Figure 58) settings are

correct for the baud rate that you are going to use. If necessary, refer to P/N 81-9059­0432-0 A (03-99 3500Plus Dipswitch Setting Information Technical Bulletin).

Figure 4-2 - 3500 Series Card DIP Switch Locations (Set For 9,600 Baud Rate)

The dipswitch should be set in accordance with Table 27 before the 3500Plus System
Controller is installed. For normal operation at 9,600 Baud, all four switches should be
in the OFF position as shown in Figure 58. (However, the factory default is 38,400
Baud-rate with switch #3 in the ON position.)

3) Return the card(s) to their proper chassis slot and secure.

4) Connect the Null modem cable to the chassis’ COM1 port and the PC’s (that has the

3500 Series software installed) serial port.

If any one of the following steps in this sequence cannot be verified and/or
performed correctly, you must complete a troubleshooting sequence to correct
the problem before proceeding to the next step.

5) Re-verify the card LEDs’ status and Active/Standby switch position as follows:

•

Single 3500 Series card installed:

a) The Active/Standby switch is in the Active position.
b) The Run (green) LED is illuminated.
c) The Active (amber) LED is illuminated

•

Dual 3500 Series cards installed:

a) Verify one card’s Active/Standby switch is in the Active position and the

other card’s switch is in the Standby position. (Note that with any other
switch configuration, the active card will be system-selected by which card
is in chassis’ A slot.)

b) On the Active card, the Run (green) LED is illuminated and the Active

(amber) LED is illuminated.

c) On the Standby card, the Run (green) LED is illuminated and the Active

(amber) LED is extinguished.

6) Refer to the 3500 Series System Controller and System Software manual and perform

the following:

a) Verify the 3500 Series controller is communicating (COM1) properly with the PC.
b) Verify the system configuration matrix is loaded on the 3500 Series controller

card (firmware). If not, reload the system configuration in the controller
firmware.

c) Verify the system confidence for the configuration matrix. That is, all system

components in the system configuration matrix have communication capabilities
(e.g., handshaking) with the 3500 Series System Controller.

d) Perform a routine diagonal, active test sequence as outlined in the 3500 Series

System Controller and System Software manual’s diagnostic tool.

7) System Control verification is complete.

Chapter 5: Reference Data

5.1 R

EFERENCE DATA INTRODUCTION

In the following paragraphs you will find information that will prove useful in the event that
system maintenance or repair should ever be required. Included are a diagram (Figure 5-1)
showing the input and output channel assignments of all 36 matrix crosspoint CCAs, plus
setting information for all DIP and rotary switches used to configure the switcher.

5.2 DIP S

There are numerous switches used in configuring the 864XR Frame for any particular input/output
matrix combination. Switch settings define the operational parameters for the various CCAs and
modules used in the switcher and assign the “personality” to each group of backplanes and their
associated CCAs. Using the switch configuration scheme prevents any “card specific” functions,
settings or jumpers and allows any input, output, or matrix CCA or power supply module to be “hot
swapped” on the fly with any other card or module, of the same type. These switches are all preset at
the factory and should never need any maintenance or adjustment. This information is provided as a
reference so that in the event any switch setting should inadvertently be changed, it can be restored to its
correct setting.

Switches are of two type: rotary or DIP. A small screwdriver can be used to make adjustments to the
rotary switches. The tip of a small screwdriver or other small pointed object may be used to select the
ON or OFF position of the DIP switches. Please note that the DIP switches are very small and each
switch section is very delicate and can easily be damaged. Use extreme care if it is ever necessary to
change the position of any section of the DIP switches.

5.2.1 C

Chassis Level Codes (Strobes) assign operational parameters to the switcher frame. There are
ten rotary switches, located just above the frame controller card(s), used to set the chassis level
code and other frame operational characteristics. Proper setting positions for these ten switches
are shown in Figure 5-2.

5.2.2 C

Each Power Supply Backplane provides slots for up to two power supply modules. Located on
the right side of each backplane for power supplies 1 through 8 is an eight position DIP switch
used to assign identity data to the power supply module(s) installed on the backplane.
Removing the power supply module installed on the right-hand side of the backplane allows
access to this DIP switch. There are two 8 position DIP switches located on the backplane for
power supplies 9 and 10. Proper setting positions for each switch section in the DIP package
are shown in Figure 5-3. In this figure, the power supply modules are shown in dotted lines in
order for the switch locations to be visible.

5.2.3 C

Each Input/Output CCA Backplane provides slots for up to four input or output CCAs. An
eight-position DIP switch, located on the lower right-hand side of each backplane, assigns a
unique identity to each backplane card. Among other functions, this switch setting allows the
controller circuitry to assign the input or output channel number range to each I/O CCA – thus
allowing any I/O card on the rear panel to be “hot swapped” with a card of like type. Proper
setting positions for each switch section in the DIP package are shown in Figure 5-4. I/O
CCAs must be removed from the backplane to gain access to the DIP switch. Figure 5-4
illustrates switch location and card slots on the backplanes with no I/O CCAs installed.

5.2.4 C

HASSIS MATRIX BACKPLANE ROTARY SWITCH SETTINGS

Your 864XR router is equipped with one of two possible model variants of the matrix
backplane module. Regardless of variant, each Matrix CCA Backplane provides slots for up to
four 128X128 matrix crosspoint CCAs. There are six rotary switches located along the bottom
edge of each backplane. Settings of these switches assign a unique identity to each matrix
backplane and the set of matrix CCAs installed in it. These settings allow the controller
circuitry to assign the input and output channel number range to each matrix backplane and
each matrix CCA. Figure 5-5 shows the location of each of the six switches on each backplane
board, and the location of the backplane model part that identifies the variant. The matrix card
image used in this figure is smaller than actual size to allow the backplane components to be
shown. Setting positions for each switch, for each model variant of the backplane, are provided
in Table 5-1 and listed by individual backplane boards.
