Note
KAM-DEC-2AES Instruction Manual 7
KAM-DEC-2AES operation requires 2000NET Network Interface Module
hardware revision 01A1 or greater with software version 3.2.2 or greater.
Systems installed in the 2000T3N frame require the 2000FAN fan sled (refer
to Figure 3 on page 11).

Installation
Installation
1.
To install the Kameleon modules, perform the following steps:
2.
All Kameleon modules can be inserted and removed from a 2000 Series
Kameleon Frame with power on.
Place the KAM-AES-R passive rear module in a rear frame slot and
tighten the screws on each side of the rear module.
Cable the signal ports.
Note
Remove the front processing module before removing the rear I/O module.
System Requirements
For proper operation of the KAM-DEC-2AES modules, the frame must be
a 2000T1DNG or 2000T3NG which include the following components:
• 2000NET module (software version 3.2.2 or later recommended for full
functionality)
• 2000GEN module
•Dual 130W power supplies in the 2000T1DNG frame
• Single 240W power supply and 2000FAN in the 2000T3NG frame
Frame Capacity
The 1 RU 2000T1DNG (with dual 130W power supplies, 2000NET and
2000GEN modules) frames have no Kameleon module capacity limitations.
The 3 RU 2000T3NG (single 240W p/s, 2000FAN, 2000NET and 2000GEN
modules) frame can be fully populated with Kameleon modules when the
2000FAN fan sled and two power sleds are installed.
Table 1 provides the maximum Kameleon module count for frame types.

Module Placement in the 2000T3NG Kameleon Frame
There are twelve slot locations in both the front and rear of a 3 RU frame to
accommodate 2000 and Kameleon Series media modules (audio/video
signal handling modules). The Kameleon media modules consist of a
two-module set with a front processing media module and a passive rear
module that can be plugged into any of the 12 frame slot pairs. The rear
modules provide the input and output interface connectors.
Installing the Front and Rear Modules
To install a KAM-DEC-2AES module set in the 2000 Series frame:
Locate a vacant slot in the rear of the 3 RU frame (Figure 1).

Note
The yellow COMM and CONF LEDs are used for the module location function
that is enabled using the 2000NET GUI. The module location function causes
these LEDs to repeatedly flash concurrently three times followed by an off
state of 900 ms duration (see Slot Configuration on page 58).

Not all module functions are available with the control panel, such as E-MEM
and factory default recalls. The available control panel controls for the
module are listed in Table 3 on page 15.

Web Browser Interface
The web browser interface provides a graphical representation of module
configuration and monitoring.
Use of the web interface offers the following considerations:
•Provides complete access to all module status and configuration functions, including naming of inputs and outputs, factory parameter and
name default recalls, E-MEM functions, slot configuration, and SNMP
monitoring controls.
•Web access will require some normal network time delays for processing of information.

•Web interface recommended for setting up module signal and slot
names, E-MEMS, and reporting status for SNMP and monitoring.
Refer to the Frame Status page shown in Figure 8 on page 20. The Kameleon and 2000 modules can be addressed by clicking either on a specific
module icon in the frame status display or on a module name or slot
number in the link list on the left.

The Status web page for the KAM-DEC-2AES module (Figure 11 on
page 25) provides an overall indication of the health of the system and links
to web pages for the active components:
• Status Header – the same on all Kameleon configuration pages (see Web
Page Operations and Functional Elements on page 21),
•Color-coded communication status for each component and path,
• Summary of all fault/warning conditions, and
•Textual module status, front module, and submodule properties.
Color-coded Status Indicators and Links
Each box represents a Kameleon module or submodule as indicated in
Figure 11 on page 25. Arrows represent signal paths that may or may not
be monitored. These elements act as links when their function is active
(indicated by underlined function name).
Color code:
•Green = Pass – operating as expected.
•Yellow = Warning – signal is absent, has errors, or is misconfigured.
•Red = Fault – a component has failed.
•Grey = Not monitored.
•White = Not present.
Status/Front Module Properties
The Status/Front Module properties in the footer provide a textual
summary of the color-coded module status. Front module properties
provide hardware, firmware, software identification, and asset tag number

Video Input Status
The Input Status section is read-only. The Input Signal name is the one
assigned on the Input/Output Configuration Web Page on page 27. Input
Standard can be affected by settings on the 2000GEN module (if present)
and the Video Input Select Web Page on page 36.
Settings
The Video Composite signal may be adjusted as required before decoding
by using the controls on this web page. 625 line rate settings do not require

Figure 16 on page 33).
Input Video Gain
Percentage of Input Video signal gain can be adjusted approximately 50 to
200%.
Black Level
Black level can be adjusted ± 20% of peak black-to-white amplitude. With
a video input at nominal level, 1% equals 7 mV in PAL-B and 0.93 IRE in
NTSC.
Video Input Signal Standard
For 525 line rate, select the input signal standard, either NTSC or PAL-M.

When the Flywheel Video Decoder is turned on, a caution will appear

video timing for the incoming video stream to deal with noise and
interruptions, leaving it on during normal operation may cause undesirable resynchronization delays if the source changes or is lost.

Troubleshooting
The Kameleon modules make extensive use of surface-mount technology
and programmed parts to achieve compact size and adherence to
demanding technical specifications. Circuit modules should not be serviced in the field except to check and replace fuses.
If your module is not operating correctly, proceed as follows:
•Check frame and module power at the front edge testpoints (Figure 40).
• If power is not present, check the fuse on the +24 V input (Figure 40).
•Check for presence and quality of input signals.
•Verify that source equipment is operating correctly.
•Check cable connections.

If the module is still not operating correctly, replace it with a known good
spare and return the faulty module to a designated Grass Valley repair
depot. Call your Grass Valley representative for depot location.
Refer to the Contacting Grass Valley at the front of this document for the
