Installing the SDI Ouput Card
The SDI output card may be installed in the VSC 700/900 by
following the instructions and illustrations shown below.
Cover removal
1. Remove the power cable from the VSC and from the power
source.
Do not open the cover of the scan converter without
unplugging the power cord.
2. If the VSC scan converter is rack mounted, detach the input
and output cables from it and remove the unit from the
rack. If the VSC is not rack mounted, you do not need to
remove the input and output cables.
3. Remove 14 screws from the top and sides of the cover
(figure 1) of the VSC 900. The VSC 700 has 12 top and side
cover screws plus 9 rear panel screws and 2 jack screw nuts
(RS-232/422 connector).
Figure 1 — Removing the VSC 900 cover
4. Remove the cover by slightly lifting each side alternately
until the cover is free.
Reverse this procedure to reinstall the cover after the SDI
connector card has been installed.
CAUTION

Do not touch any switches or other electronic
components inside the VSC. Doing so could damage
the scan converter. Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
can damage IC chips even though you cannot feel it.
You must be electrically grounded. A grounding
wrist strap is recommended.
SDI Output Card installation
After following the instructions in “Cover removal” to remove
the cover, do the following:
1. Locate the SDI card standoff located near the middle rear
(VSC 900) or left rear (VSC 700) portion of the main circuit
board (looking from above with the front panel nearest to
you).

2. Remove the plastic cap covering the SDI connector opening
from the rear panel of the VSC, and position the SDI card at
an angle with the SDI connector protruding from the rear
SDI connector opening.
3. The SDI card has a 20-pin socket on the underside which
must align with the 20 pins on the main circuit board. Be
sure to align the pins properly, in order to prevent bending
the pins, before pressing the SDI card firmly in place against
the standoff. The mounting hole on the SDI card should
now be directly over the standoff.

4. Insert the card’s installation screw through the SDI card’s
mounting hole, and gently tighten it into the standoff.

5. Install the SDI connector’s hex nut from the outside of the
rear panel opening. Keep the SDI card from twisting as the
nut is tightened.
6. Replace the top cover on the VSC, and fasten it with the
screws which were removed in step 3 of the “Cover
removal” section.
7. Rack/furniture mount the scan converter, and reconnect the
AC power cord.
