1-2 Profile Video File Server Installation

Product Description

The Profile Video File Server is a disk-based video file server with enhanced record and playback quality, and rapid storage/retrieval c apabilities. In addition to the advantage of not having to load tape as with VTRs, the Profile Video File Server occupies less rack space and is fully computer controlled.

The PDR200 provides up to four Motion-JPEG encoders/decoders (CODECs) in a flexible system which star ts with four base configurations: two are for 2- channel Profile systems and t wo are for 4- channel Pr ofile syste ms. These base configur ations can be ordered with analog or digital inputs and outputs. Each configuration is then tailored, through factory installed options, to meet your site-specific needs . Many options may be e asily added to your PDR 200 as your needs change and expand. For information on adding options, contact your Grass Valley Group represe ntative.

A two-channel system (PDR202) is equipped with a single Master Enhanced Disk Recorder board, which provid es two JPEG codecs, and two SCSI buss es, SCSI A and SCSI B, although SCSI B may not be a vailable on all models. A four- channel sy stem (PDR204) adds a Slave Enhanced Disk Recorder, which pr ovides two additional JPEG codecs and two more SCSI busses (SCSI C and SCSI D).

The PDR300 adds factory-installed MPEG encoders and decoders to the Profile Video File Server, while retaining all the capabiliti es and optional configurations of the PDR200. Two MPEG boards, one with one encoder and two decoders, the other with four decoders, provide many combinations of capabiliti es to meet your needs. The JPEG codecs on the Master and Slave Enhanced Disk Recorder boards remain available as resources f or record/p lay channel s or for transcoding cli ps betwee n JPEG and MPEG.

Product Description

The PDR400 adds factory-inst alled DVCPRO boards to the Profile Video File S erver, while retaini ng the same capabili ties and optiona l configura tions of the PDR200. The DVCPRO boards includes up to six DVCPRO 2 5 codecs arra nged in pair s. Ea ch pair of DVCPRO 25 codecs may be used a s a single DVCPRO 50 codec. Bec au se of this paired codec arc h itec tur e, s ome s y stem tim ing rest ri ction s ap ply . These res tri ct ions are discussed in “DVC PRO System Timing Consider ations” on page 1-17. The JPEG codecs on the Master and Slave Enhanced Disk Recorder boards remain available as resources for record/play channels or for transcoding clips between JPEG and DVCPRO. In some configurations, the operation of one of the JPEG codecs may be restricted as described in “C onfigurations” on page 1-8.

The Profile Vide o File Server is mounted o n rack slides for installation in a st andard electronic equip ment rack. All connections to the Profi le Video File Server are on the rear panel (see Chapter 2, “Mechanical In sta llat io n ”). Also see Appendix A, “Specifications”, for physic al and electrical spe cifications and environmental crite ria.

Maximum Video Data Rates

This section describes the maximum video data rate available per channel on the Profile Video Fi le Server whe n all c hannels are in use. The maximum video da ta r ate per channel depends on the Profile model, the type of storage, and the number of storage disk drives in the system. The Profile Video File Server can be configured with either RAID or non-RAID s torage. Refer t o Table 1-7, Table 1-8, and Table 1-9 to determine the maximum video data rates for various Profile models and storage options.

Chapter 1 Introduction

You can select the video data rate the Profile system uses to record the video signal, unless you are using DVCPRO25 codecs which operate at a fixed 25Mb/s. When selecting video data rates, be sure not to exceed the total Profile system bandwidth. Fibre channel trans fers, archive opera tions, and high bandwidth recor ding or playout may require that you reduce the data rate on other channels or operate fewer channels at one time. Although playout and recording take priority over other operations, exceeding your P rofile syst em bandwidth may result in r ecord or pla yback pr oblems. For information on setting the video data rate in Profile applications software, ref er to the appropriate sections o f the Profile Family User Manual

Storage Capacity Estimates

The Profile Video File Server stor a ge capacity is determined by the number of disk drives in the system and the video data rate selected to record the video signal. The Profile Video File Server can be configured with three, five, or eight int ernal 18GB disk drives. You c an r efer to Tabl e 1-10 for storage esti mates ba sed on t he number of disk drives installed and the video data rate. All Profile applications allow you to select the video data rate used to record the video signal, unless you are using DVCPRO 25 compression which operates at a fixed 25Mb/s data rate, or DVCPRO 50 compression which operates at a fixed 50Mb/s data rate. For more information about set ting the video data rate, refer the appropr iate sections of the Profile Family User Manual.

Video storage times are estimates (within 10%) and include 2 audio channels and 1 timecode channel. Adding 2 more channels of audio adds approximately 1.5 Mb/s to the total data rate .

The Profile Video File Server stor age space can be expanded by adding one or two PDX 218 Disk Expansion Chassis containing eight 18GB disk drives each. You can refer to entrie s for eight drive systems in Table 1-10 to determine the storage capacity of a PDX218 at various video data rates.

NOTE: Storage capacity estimate s for the PRS255 RAID Storage Chassis are located in the PRS255 RAID Storage Instruction Manual.

DVCPRO System Timing Considerations

The DVCPRO codecs used in Profile systems are actually pairs of codecs. Because of this paired codec arc h itec ture, some restrict io ns ap pl y to the DVCPRO codec s whic h require the follow ing sy stem ti ming li mita ti o ns:

1. Y ou must supply a Reference In signal to the Profile system.

2. All video signals that you want to record with a D VCPR O codec must be synchronous with the Reference In signal.

3. If you want to use the DVCPRO codecs as independent codecs, all of your video inputs must be auto-timed to the Reference input. In Configuration Manager, select Enable Auto-Tim ing for each input. You must ensure that each input actually auto-times by checking that th e Auto-Tim ed indicator in the V ideo Input dia log box is li t. Refer to “Using the Profile Configuration Manager ” in the Profile Family User Manual for more information on Auto-Timing.

4. If you are unable to auto-time an input, or if you wish to use the DVCPRO 25 codecs for BVW Insert/Edit operations, you may only use one of the codecs from each pair, DVCPRO25 #1, DVCPRO25 #3, and D VCPRO25 #5. Note that the second DVCPRO 25 codec from each pair must not be used.

Mechanical Installation

This chapter describes the mechanical installation of your Profile Video File Server into an equipment rack and the connection of cables to the rear panel. The chapter includes examples of connections to peripheral equipment such as the PDX218 storage expansion chassis, the PRS255 RAID Storage chassis. See the appropria te manuals for ins tal l ation inst ru cti o ns for pe rip he ral eq u ipm en t. T he info rm at io n here covers:

• Mounting the Profile Video Fil e Server in the rack.

• Mounting the RS-422 Connector Panel.

• Mounting the audio interfac e cha ssis (XLR216, BNC216, or PAC208/216).

• Making Profile Video File Server rear panel cable connections.

• Making other system connections.

Rack Mounting

The equipment for the P rofile Vi deo File S erver syste m installs in a st andard 19-inc h equipment rac k. Rack slide tracks shipped with the Profile Video File Se rver and the Profile Audio Chass is allow them to slide in and out without having to remove the m from the rack. However, if the rack does not already have rack slides installed , or if the slides are not correctly positioned, you will have to use those shipp ed with the Profile Video File Server.

When determining the location of the Profile Video File Server in the rack, bear in mind that the chassis with a full complement of disk drives we ighs appr oximately 70 pounds. Observe the following warnings:

WARNING: To prevent injury, t wo people are requi red to lift the Prof ile Video File Server. The Profile Video File Server is too heavy for one person to install in the rack.

WARNING: To prevent serious i njury , in sure that the rack i s anc hored to t he f loor so that it cannot tip over when the Profile Video File Server is extended out of the rack.

Connecting Audio

Your Profile Video File Server can have one or two Audio I/O boards inst alled. All uni ts have at least one Audio I/O boar d, called Audio Signal Processor Board ( or ASPB), whi ch provides 16 channels of audio I/O. A second ASPB can be installed, adding 16 more channels for a total of 32 channels of audio I/O.

If you have two Audio I/O boards installed, the first one (or ASPB1) resides in the lowest numbered board slot and is labelle d “AUDIO I/O IN/OUT CH 1-16”. The second ASPB (or ASPB2), if installed, is in the higher numbered board slot and is labelled “AUDIO I/O IN OUT CH 17-32”. Refer to the rear panel labels or Table s 1-2 through 1-6 in Chapter 1, pages 1-9 through 1-13, to determine the slot location of these boards in your system.

The Audio Signal Processor Board (ASPB) can be configured to operate with analog, AES/ EBU digital, and digital embedded (SMPTE 272M Level A) audio. If you are using only embedded audio, no interface chassis is required.

An interface chassis is required for Analog and AES/EBU Audio. Table 2-1 contains a summary of interface chassis avail abl e.

NOTE:

- Interface chassis must be connected to both ASPBs for operation with 32 channels of analog or AES/EBU digital audio.

- To determine if the PAC200 Analog Audio Chassis is a PAC208 or PAC216, look at the identificati on tag toward the rear on the left side of the chassis.

Connecting SCSI Devices

The Profile Video File Server has a number of connectors for at taching SCSI device s. There are SCSI connectors on the Master and Slave Enhanced Disk Recorder boards, on the System SCSI board, and along the top of the rear panel (se e Figure 2-20). Beyond the Master Enha nced Disk Recorder board, standard on all conf igurations, the number of SCSI connectors available depends on your configuration. Also , the actual board locations may vary. Refer to the rear panel labels or Tables 1-2 through 1-6 in Chapter 1, pages 1-9 through 1-13, to determine the slot location of these boards in your system.

The Master Enhanced Disk Recorder board, shown in Fi gure 2-20, provides a SCSI A bus and a SCSI B bus. (The SCSI B bus is not prese nt on Profile Vide o File Server s which have eight internal media disks, and no Slave Enhanced Disk Recorder board.) Connect disk-b ased SCSI d evi ces such as t he PDX218 Disk Expansion chassis to the SCSI A bus connector on the board at the rear panel. Connect tape-based SCSI devices such as the PLS200 Profile Library System to the SCSI B bus connector at the top of the rear panel.

If installed, the Slave Enhanced Disk Recorder board provides a SCSI C bus and a SCSI D bus (see Figure 2-20). Connect disk-based SCSI devices to the SCSI C bus connector on t he board at the rear panel. C onnect tape-b ased SCSI devic es such as the PLS 200 Profile Library System to the SCSI D bus connector at the top of the rear panel.

The System SCSI board, s hown her e in slot J4 (se e Figur e 2-20) is installed as part of the optional Profile Library System. If installed, conne ct the cable from the Profile Library System to this board. (See the PLS 200 Installation Manual for details abo ut installing the PLS 200.) Note that the System SCSI board is only used with the PLS200 and the Ampex DST412 at this time.

Starting Your Profile System

This chapter contains infor mation to get you up and running with your Profile Video File Server. The tasks you will perfor m are:

• Turning Profile system and peripheral equipment On.

• Logging On

• Configuring your Profile system.

• Updating your Emergency Repair Disk.

This chapter also includes a brief verification test and troubleshooting information.

Power On/Off

This heading desc ribes how to t urn on t he power to the Pr ofile Sy stem and periph eral equipment. Before you turn on the power you need know about logging on to the Profile system .

Logging On

When the Profile syst em power is turned on and befo re Windows NT boots, you must make a choice of how you want to logon the system.

Automatic Logon

When the Profile system is powered on you may let Windows NT go through an automatic logon sequence . The syste m will perform automatic logon using a default account call ed profile. After automatic logon, the Profile VdrPanel application will appear as shown in Figure 3-3.

Automatic logon will occur at power On when:

-The profile account was used the last time the Profile Video File Server was

turned off.

- The Profile Video File Server is init ially powered On from the factory. (The

factory sets the last use r to profile prior to shipment.)

Profile Video File Server Installation 3-1

Chapter 3 Starting Your Profile System

Logon as Administrator

When the Profile system is powered On, you may int errupt automatic logon and logon as Administrator. It is not necessary to logon as administrator to configure Profile System software. However, you must logon as Administrator for Windows NT administration and to:

Networking Your Profile System

This chapter cont ains inf ormati on about t he Prof ile syst em and Ethe rne t configur ations, and how to connect your Profile Video File Server for Ethernet and Fibre Channel networking.

Network Configurations

The Profile Video File Server has both an Ethernet network interface (standard) and a Fibre Channel network int erface (optional) . If you are connecting your Profile system to only an Ethernet network, see “Connecting Ethernet” on page 4-4 .

Profile Video Networking requires both a Fibre Channel network and an Ethernet network. Fibre Channel provides connectivity for high speed media data transfers between two or more Profile systems. The Ethernet network provides for exchange of command and status information between systems.

Building a network of more than two Profil e systems requires an Ethernet hub (or connections to an existing Ethernet network) and a Fibre Channel hub. In thi s network configuration , Grass Va lley Group recommends that you begin by configuring and testing the network with onl y two Profile Systems connected to the Ethernet and Fibre Channel hu bs. This will ens u re tha t all com p one n ts are work in g and are correctly configured before adding additional Profile systems to the Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks.

Network Models

The following discusses thr ee exampl es of Etherne t and F ibre Ch annel net working. The first example shows connection of several Profile systems using an Ethernet hub (or existing Ethernet network) and a Fibre Channel hub. The second example of Ethernet and Fibre Channel networking shows an example of casca ding several hubs. The third example shows a point to point connecti on for two Prof ile systems.

Profile Video File Server Installation 4-1

Chapter 4 Networking Your Profile System

Networking Several Profile Systems

If you want t o connect mo re than two Profile s ystems togethe r for vi deo networking, you will need to connect each system to an Ethernet hub or an existing Ethernet network and a Fibre Channel hub. Figure 4-1 shows an example of this configuration.

Ethernet Hub

Cascading Several Hubs

Connecting hubs together provide s a way to add more and more systems to the network. Large Fibre Cha nnel networks will probably not perfor m as well as smaller ones due to bandwidth limitations. Figure 4-2 shows a network using cascaded hubs.

The number of hubs r equired depends on the number of connections supported by each hub. Remember that one of the connections is needed to connect to the next hub. You must use appropriate cable s for the distance between devices.

Point to Point Network Connection

The simplest network connec tion is the point-to-point conne ction shown in Figure 4-3. This method allows you to connect two Profile systems together. The Fibre Channel connection can be made using a Fibre Channel cable. The Ethernet connection can be made using an Ethernet hub or an Ethernet cros sove r cable.

NOTE: The Ethernet crossover cable requi red for point to point Ethernet connection is not shipped with the Profile system. Also, for point to point connection, both Profiles must be powered on at the same time.

Connecting Ethernet

The Profile system supports a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface. Figure 4-4 shows the location of the 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface connector on the System CPU board in slot J1. See Appendix B for connector pin-out inf ormation.

To connect your Profile system to Ethernet:

1. Turn the Profile system power Off. (See page 3-2 for power on/off procedures.)
