ESD Protection

Electronics today are more susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage than older equipment. Damage to equipment can occur by ESD fields that are smaller than you can feel. Implementing the information in this section will help you protect the investment that you have made in purchasing Grass Valley equipment. This section contains Grass Valley’s recommended ESD guidelines that should be followed when handling electrostatic discharge sensitive (ESDS) items. These minimal recommen dations are based on the information in the Sources of ESD and Risks area. The information in Grounding Requirements for Personnel on page 28 is pro­vided to assist you in selecting an appropriate grounding method.

Recommended ESD Guidelines

Follow these guidelines when handling Grass Valley equipment:
Only trained personnel that are connected to a grounding system should handle ESDS items.
Do not open any protective bag, box, or special shipping packaging until you have been grounded.
-
Note When a Personal Grounding strap is unavailable, as an absolute minimum,
touch a metal object that is touching the floor (for example, a table, frame, or rack) to discharge any static energy before touching an ESDS item.
Open the anti-static packaging by slitting any existing adhesive tapes. Do not tear the tapes off.
Remove the ESDS item by holding it by its edges or by a metal panel.
Do not touch the components of an ESDS item unless it is absolutely necessary to configure or repair the item.
Keep the ESDS work area clear of all nonessential items such as coffee cups, pens, wrappers and personal items as these items can discharge static. If you need to set an ESDS item down, place it on an anti-static mat or on the anti-static packaging.
TRINIX — TMV Installation and Service Manual 26
ESD Protection

Sources of ESD and Risks

The following information identifies possible sources of electrostatic dis­charge and can be used to help establish an ESD policy.
Personnel
One of the largest sources of static is personnel. The static can be released from a person’s clothing and shoes.
Environment
The environment includes the humidity and floors in a work area. The humidity level must be controlled and should not be allowed to fluctuate over a broad range. Relative humidity (RH) is a major part in determining the level of static that is being generated. For example, at 10% - 20% RH a person walking across a carpeted floor can develop 35kV; yet when the rel ative humidity is increased to 70% - 80%, the person can only generate
1.5kV.
-
Static is generated as personnel move (or as equipment is moved) across a floor’s surface. Carpeted and waxed vinyl floors contribute to static build up.
Work Surfaces
Painted or vinyl-covered tables, chairs, conveyor belts, racks, carts, anod­ized surfaces, plexiglass covers, and shelving are all static generators.
Equipment
Any equipment commonly found in an ESD work area, such as solder guns, heat guns, blowers, etc., should be grounded.
Materials
Plastic work holders, foam, plastic tote boxes, pens, packaging containers and other items commonly found at workstations can generate static elec tricity.

Overview

The Trinix Multiviewer (TMV) is a flexible and configurable multiviewer solution that has been integrated into the Trinix NXT router. The TMV is for displaying multiple video images, time, audio activity, and so forth, on dis plays located at the customer’s facility.
The TMV board occupies an output slot in a Trinix Routing switcher. The TMV board takes advantage of the routing switcher's power and cooling features. However, the router control system considers it an external device. This simplified approach improves reliability of the system and saves the cost of an output card, another external frame, and cabling. The TMV board is hot swappable, which makes board replacement a quick and easy task with minimal downtime.
Each TMV board can use the standard base-band video formats that are supported by the Trinix NXT router through 32 input and eight (8) output connectors. The 32 destinations act as 32 inputs to the TMV board. The dis played information can be cascaded to other boards to provide increased display density on a single display. There is a 1- frame delay when video is processed but it is processed only one time.
Section 1
-
-
The TMV board performs more processing than a Trinix output board, which means it requires more power and cooling. There are limitations when adding the TMV to an existing symmetrical Trinix NXT frame. For more information, see
TRINIX - TMV Installation and Service Manual 30
Hardware Installation on page 34.

Hardware Installation

Overview

The Trinix Multiviewer (TMV) boards are installed inside a Trinix NXT router frame in a similar manner as a standard Trinix NXT output card; however, the TMV boards use a different rear panel. TMV boards are installed from the front of the router and are locked into place to prevent the boards from becoming loose if they are installed in a production truck.
The TMV board is hot swappable to provide quick and easy replacement with minimal downtime. The TMV board supports 32 inputs and 8 outputs and is capable of utilizing all the standard base-band video formats that are supported by the Trinix NXT router.
Each TMV board has four video processors that can support up to eight monitor video inputs. Each video processor manages eight video inputs. These video inputs are managed by the configuration editor to create your preferred display.
Section 2
Outputs on the TMV card can be wired as inputs to the Trinix. Monitors can be wired as outputs from the Trinix. Wiring a system in this manner will allow for routing any TMV output to any monitor. A 1694a cable must be used. This cable the routing switcher.

The TMV board performs more processing than a Trinix output board, which means it requires more power and cooling. This increased power and cooling limits the number of boards and in which slot a TMV may be used in a routing switcher.
TRINIX — TMV Installation and Service Manual 34
Section 2 — Hardware Installation
Trinix Asymmetrical Frames
The Trinix asymmetrical frames will support the following number of Trinix boards:
128 x 256 supports up to 8 TMV boards
256 x 512 supports up to 8 TMV boards
512 x 1024 supports up to 16 TMV boards
Trinix Symmetrical Frames
The TMV output boards may also be used in existing symmetrical Trinix NXT frames but in a limited manner. Due to the increased power and cooling requirements, an extra space next to each TMV board is required for ventilation.
The supported number of TMV boards in an existing symmetrical Trinix NXT frame is:
128x128 supports up to 2 TMV boards
256x256 supports up to 4 TMV boards
512x512 supports up to 4 TMV boards

TMV Board Location

The TMV board may be placed in any Output slot for the 128x256 and the 512x1024 Trinix Routing switchers. Grass Valley recommends that you ONLY install the TMV board in the following output ranges of the identi fied routing switchers. See Tab le 3 for more information
The boards may be installed in any of the allowed slots identified but MUST cascade in ascending order. They do not have to be installed begin ning with the first available output slot and slots may be skipped.

Installing the Trinix Multiviewer Board

The following is a summary of the steps needed for installation of the Trinix Multiviewer.
Unpacking and Inspection
Installing the Trinix Multiviewer Option

Unpacking and Inspection

Before unpacking the equipment, inspect the shipping carton for evidence of freight damage. Notify the carrier and Grass Valley if the contents have been damaged. Retain all shipping cartons and padding material for inspection by the carrier.
Do NOT return damaged merchandise to Grass Valley until an appropriate claim has been filed with the carrier and you have received a material return authorization number from Grass Valley.
Installing the Trinix Multiviewer Board

Installing the Trinix Multiviewer

The TMV boards are sensitive to ESD. Use static handling precautions when installing or removing the TMV. See more information.
If you purchased the Trinix Multiviewer (TMV) option with a Trinix Routing switcher, the boards will be installed at the factory. You will only need to install the TMV boards on-site if they are to be used in an existing routing switcher, or used as a replacement.
Installing the TMV requires that you remove the standard BNC rear panel and Output boards, if they are present in the locations specified in
Board Location. The TMV Rear panels will then be installed in the rear of the
frame. The TMV board is installed and locked into place from the front of the Trinix frame. Ensure that the TMV board is installed in the appropriate slot in the Trinix routing switcher. See card slot number is important since the TMV destinations are determined by the Routing switcher’s card slot, which is the same as a Trinix output card.
Before starting this procedure, remove the Output boards from the front of the routing switcher and then move to the rear of the router.

Cascading Connections

Video may flow from one TMV board to another by connecting the CASCADE OUT connection from one board to the CASCADE IN connec tion on another board. The Cascade Video In connection creates a back­ground if one is coming from another TMV Card. If there is no Video on this input, the background is black and Video Inputs from the Trinix is Keyed onto the black background.
Note The cable used for cascading must be at least 10 Meters (32.8 Feet).
Number of Connections
The number of boards that may be cascaded together is limited to four (4). There may be more than one set of cascaded TMV boards in a router.
The number of boards that you may install depends on the type of router.

The TMV Board’s Memory

There are different types of memory used on the TMV board. Each is described briefly below.
Serial Flash: Stores the gateware for the Comm FPGA. The Comm FPGA must start from the Serial Flash memory.
Parallel Flash: Stores the gateware for the MView FPGA. The MView FPGA’s are started under control of the Comm FPGA and the NIOS Comm software.
SD Card: Stores all Configuration files, fonts, and graphics.
Rear Panel storage: Stores all network information in the Rear panel, not
on the TMV Main board. For example:
Facility LAN’s MAC address, IP Address, Gateway, and NetMask.
Control LAN’s MAC address, IP Address, Gateway, and NetMask.
TMV location within the Trinix frame.
The TMV Board’s Memory
Router Control System’s Primary IP Address and Secondary IP Address.
The way that the TMV board uses this memory makes replacing a board a very easy task.

Replacing a TMV Board

The TMV board is hot swappable to provide quick and easy replacement with minimal downtime.
Follow these steps to replace a TMV board:
1. Remove the non-performing board from the routing switcher’s output
slot.
2. Remove the SD card from the non-performing board.
3. Insert the SD card into the replacement board’s SD slot.
4. Place the new board into the routing switcher’s output slot and then
lock it into place.
Once a board has been replaced, very little user interaction is required. The replacement board will be identified by the slot it occupies in the Trinix frame. The Rear panel provides the Network information, MAC address, IP address, and so forth. All configuration items are stored on the SD card.

Section 2 — Hardware Installation

Allocating Video Sources and TMV Board Outputs

This section describes how Video sources are routed and how the TMV boards’ monitor outputs are used.
This example will start with one Tile, Audio bar, and Text box. How the video will be routed and how the scalars will be consumed will be explained. As more tiles are added more scalars are consumed.

One Tile, Text Box, and Audio Bar

In the example shown in Figure 13, Monitor 1 has one Tile, Audio bar, and Text box. The Audio bar and Text box have been associated with the tile.
Figure 13. Example 1 - One Tile, Text Box, and Audio Bar
When you save the configuration and then Compile and Publish Configu­ration (File> Compile and Publish Configuration) this information will be sent to the TMV board.
Each TMV board has four MView processors, which are numbered MView0, MView1, MView2, and MView3. Each processor has 8 Scalars and 2 outputs.
In the example shown in Figure 13, the video source would be routed to MView0 V1 (or Scalar 1). MV0 would scale the video to the size you selected in the editor. The tile, on top of black, would be output on Monitor 1 output 1.

Updating the TMV Board’s Firmware

The Boards that will be updated
The available versions of software
NetConfig is used to update the TMV Board’s embedded software and gateware. NetConfig can also be used to configure IP Addresses, access TMV Web pages, and view specific TMV board information; for example, its serial number. Grass Valley recommends updating TMV boards one at a time to avoid confusion. For more information about the NetConfig appli cation see the NetConfig Instruction Manual, which can be downloaded from Grass Valley’s Web site.

The Default Display

Each TMV board has four MView FPGAs that control eight monitor out­puts. One MView FPGA for every two monitor outputs (eight outputs per TMV board). A default display is generated by the MView FPGAs when their resources are not supporting a configured display. This Default display is shown when an attempt is made to display the user-defined con figuration but one cannot be found. For example, during a reboot of the board.
Common causes for the Default display to appear are:
The SD card does not contain a published user-defined configuration.
The SD card has been removed or is not functioning.
Any MView FPGA that is not used in the current configuration, will show the default display on both of its monitor outputs.
Default Display Features
The following are the Default display features:
The Default Display
-
The display monitor output video standard is either 720p59 or 720p50 depending on the connected reference.
A Quad display of four tiles that are allocated to each output.
Each tile has an Under Monitor Display (UMD), which displays the video standard of the associated video.
The displayed video is the video that is routed to the TMV board's des­tinations.
The Default display is shown in Figure 36 as it would be shown on the monitor.

Network Planning

Overview

This section describes the information needed planning and configuring the networks on which the Trinix Multiviewer (TMV) option will operate. The TMV system will auto-negotiate 100/1000 Mb connection for the fol lowing networks:
The TMV Facility LAN
The TMV Control LAN.
The Facility LAN is used to retrieve “router data” from the AccuSwitch or Encore controller. During configuration, the TMV Router data will be received from the AccuSwitch or Encore controller. Tally Systems (TSL or Image Video) will use the Facility LAN to communicate with the TMV board. The Facility LAN is also used to send switch requests to the control system for features such as destination follow and discrete audio.
Section 4
-
The Control LAN is used by the Editor application for publishing the con­figuration data to the TMV card. The TMV Control application retrieves layouts from the board and checks the bezel using the Control LAN. All the TMV components broadcast "I'm Alive" messages on this LAN.
LAN Addresses
LAN addresses for the TMV boards can be set using NetConfig or the TMV board’s Web Page. The TMV LAN ports must be set to addresses that are unique within your facility. For example, you might choose:
Facility LAN - 192.168.175.xxx
Control LAN - 192.168.176.xxx
The TMV LANs must be on isolated networks in order to ensure system integrity. The TMV facility LAN should NOT be on the same network as the Encore/Jupiter/Tally facility LAN or a general-purpose LAN such as an IT network. The TMV control LAN must be an isolated network. Encore/ Jupiter/Tally control, IT, and so forth, cannot use this LAN.

Destination Monitoring
Item area
Router Destination area
Destination monitoring is a simple way to monitor where signals are and how they are being used. It is similar to a Tally system but no third-party application is required. Text, border color, foreground (text color) and back ground color can be configured to indicate tally.
Up to 16 different Destination Monitoring Items (tables) are supported. Each item can contain up to four (4) router destinations that you want to monitor. Once the router destination has been added to the Router Destina tion list you can edit, delete, or update the destination. 2^n rows will appear, where n is the number of destinations in the Router Destination list. Therefore, 1 router destination = 2 rows (2^1), 2 router destinations = 4 rows (2^2), 3 router destinations = 8 rows, 4 router destinations = 16 rows.
The following steps assume that you have clicked the Router Information/Con-
figuration Tables tab.

The Router Destination Area
The Router Destination area is where you add destinations and configure the display rules for this set of destinations. Each row corresponds to a rule that will be executed when a source matches the row's condition for the configured destinations. Green LEDs indicates the source and the level are selected for the destination. Light gray LEDs indicate the source and the level are not selected for the destination.
In the example shown in Figure 56 on page 95, three destinations have been selected, MON-1, MON-2, and MON-3 and 2^n combinations of these three destinations are shown:
MON-1 to PGM (program)
MON-2 to PVW (preview)
MON-3 to AUX (auxiliary)
For example, if the source routed to the associated tile is only routed to MON-1, then the rule in row 1 will be executed. The text "PGM" will be dis played in the Text Box, but the border will use the statically configured color. If the source routed to the associated tile is routed to both MON-1 and MON-2 and not MON-3, then the text "PGM + PVW" will be displayed in the Text Box but the border will use the statically configured color.
