Preface

Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Compliance

The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/95/EC—commonly known as the Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS)—sets limits on the use of certain substances found in electrical and electronic equipment. The intent of this legislation is to reduce the amount of hazardous chemicals that may leach out of landfill sites or otherwise contaminate the environment during end-of-life recycling. The Directive, which took effect on July 1, 2006, refers to the following hazardous substances:
Lead (Pb)
Mercury (Hg)
Cadmium (Cd)
Hexavalent Chromium (Cr-V1)
Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB)
Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
According to this EU Directive, all products sold in the European Union will be fully RoHS-compliant and “lead-free.” (See our website for more information.) Spare parts supplied for the repair and upgrade of equipment sold before July 1, 2006 are exempt from the legislation. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a RoHS-compliant emblem, as shown in
Figure P-1.
Figure P-1. RoHS Compliance Emblem

Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Compliance

The European Union (EU) Directive 2002/96/EC—commonly known as the Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)—deals with the collection, treatment, recovery, and recycling of electrical and electronic waste products. The objective of the WEEE Directive is to assign the responsibility for the disposal of associated hazardous waste to either the producers or users of these products. As of August 13, 2005, producers or users will be required to recycle electrical and electronic equipment at end of its useful life, and may not dispose of the equipment in landfills or by using other unapproved methods. (Some EU member states may have different deadlines.)

Preface
In accordance with this EU Directive, companies selling electric or electronic devices in the EU will affix labels indicating that such products must be properly recycled. (See our website for more information.) Contact your local Sales Representative for information on returning these products for recycling. Equipment that complies with the EU directive will be marked with a WEEE-compliant emblem, as shown in Figure P-2.

Safety

Carefully review all safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage to this product or any products connected to it. If this product is rack-mountable, it should be mounted in an appropriate rack using the rack-mounting positions and rear support guides provided. To protect a frame from circuit overloading, connect each frame to a separate electrical circuit. If this product relies on forced air cooling, all obstructions to the air flow should be removed prior to mounting the frame in the rack.
If this product has a provision for external earth grounding, ground the frame to the earth using the protective earth ground on the rear panel.
IMPORTANT! Only qualified personnel should perform service procedures.

Applications

Front Module

ACO6800+ modules allow broadcasters who must turn aro und large numbers of signals (such as satellite direct-to home operations, cable head-ends, mobile television operations, and IPTV operations) to provide two signal sources with the ability to switch between the signals to play one on air.
Figure 1-1 shows the position of the LEDs and module controls on the front of
the modules.

Feature Description
Chapter 1: Introduction
Module status LEDs
Various color and lighting combinations of these LEDs indicate the module state. See page 41, page 52, page 64, and page 99 for more information.
Mode select rotary switch
Navigation toggle switch
This switch selects between various control and feedback parameters.
This switch navigates up and down through the available control parameters:
Down: Moves down through the parameters
Up: Moves up through the parameters
Control LEDs Various lighting combinations of these Control LEDs (sometimes
referred to as “Bank Select LEDs”) indicate the currently selected bank. See “Bank Select LEDs” on page 19 for more information.
Monitoring LEDs
Each 6800+ module has a number of LEDs assigned to indicate varying states/functions. See page 42, page 53, page 65, and
page 100 for descriptions of these LEDs.
Jumpers This module has Remote/Local jumper, for selecting either local or
remote control of the module (default is Remote). The BSCAN/Normal jumper must be left in the Normal position.

Note
Note
The power consumption for the ACO6800+ISD, ACO6800+DSD, ACO6800+ASID, and ACO6800+IDSD 2-slot modules is less than 12 W. The power consumption for the three-slot ACO6800+ISCST module is less than 13 W. Table 2-2 shows the maximum allowable power ratings for 6800+ frames. Note the given maximums before installing any 6800+ modules in your frame.
Due to high levels of heat dissipation, the modules should not be installed in frames without fans. The modules cannot be installed in FR6802+DM and 6800/7000 series frames.
To maintain proper temperatures, ensure that the front panel is closed at all times, and that the fan module is fully operational.

Installing the Modules

Due to high levels of heat dissipation, the modules must not be installed in frames without fans. The modules cannot be installed in FR6802+DM or 6800/7000 series frames.
These modules require no specialized installation or removal procedures. However, if you are installing b oth front module and back connector , ensure that the back connector is installed first before plugging in the front module. Likewise, ensure that the front module is unplugged from the frame before removing the back connector. See the installation and operation manual for your frame for information about installing and operating the frame and its components.
Use the FR6802+RM (Rear Support Extension Rails for 6800+ series frames) for the modules. See the installation and operation manual for your frame for installation instructions.
Before installing this product, read the 6800+ Series Safety Instructions and Standards Manual shipped with every frame installation and operation
manual. This information is also available on our website. The safety manual contains important information about the safe installation and operation of 6800+ series products.

Upgrading Module Firmware

Firmware upgrading is a routine procedure that you must perform to install newer versions of software on 6800+ modules. Navigator software version 4.4 or later is required to perform this procedure on ACO6800+ modules. The frame must contain or be connected to another frame that contains an ICE6800+ or a 6800+ETH module, version 4.1 or higher.
You can upgrade your 6800+ module’s firmware using the Software Upgrade tool in CCS Navigator 4.4 or higher. See your frame manual for more information.
The File Transfer tab is not meant to be used for firmware upgrades. Use the Software Upgrade tool to upgrade module firmware.
If you do not use the correct firmware version, your module may display incorrect menu structures, thumbnail failures, and software upgrade failures.
The module uses high-speed upgrading in ASI mode, and normal field upgrading in SDI mode.

Network Control

For detailed information on how to operate this product remotely, see the Navigator, NUCLEUS Network Control Pan el, or LCP-3901-1 U/RCP-CCS-1U manual for Ethernet interface.
ACO6800+ modules do not support + Pilot Lite software; however , you can use HTTP or SNMP monitoring and control. For detailed information, see the installation and operation manual for your frame.

Operating Notes

When you set the control parameters on the ACO6800+, observe the following:
If you make changes to certain parameters, other related parameters may also be affected.
When you change a parameter, the effect is immediate. However, the module requires up to 20 seconds to save the latest change. After 20 seconds, the new settings are saved and will be restored if the module loses power and must be restarted.
For best results, terminate any unused coaxial output connectors with a 75Ω connector.

Adding a License Key

ACO6800+ISD, ACO6800+DSD, and ACO6800+IDSD modules can be converted to one another through use of a license key. It is not possible to upgrade to an ACO6800+ISCST or ACO6800+ASID module.
For assistance with a license key , or to purchase a license key, contact your Sales representative. See “Checking the Packing List” on page 12.
To enter a license key, your CCS software must be in Control mode. Follow these steps:
1. Select the ACO6800+ module in the Navigation pane.
2. Right-click, and then select Control to open the module’ s Control window.
3. If it is not already selected, click on the Parameters tab.
4. Select General in the tree view, and then type your license key in the License Key field.
If your license key is valid, the Installed Options field displays the features that are activated on the module.
