Product Description

The HMX6803+ is an auto-sensing SD/HD-SDI 4-AES audio multiplexer and processing amplifier with one digital video input and one DARS reference input, and has four processed SD/HD-SDI outputs. The OP+HMX+ module has the same features, and an additional optical transmitter. The modules support embedding and passing of Dolby E™ metadata , and picture and sound control through integrated processing amplifiers. The basic HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ provide SD and HD-SDI audio embedding, and there is an optional upgrade to 3G HD-SDI. Another optional upgrade adds four AES inputs, for a total of eight.

Each HMX6803+ or OP+HMX+ package includes a module-specific breakout cable with unbalanced (coaxial) audio connectors that expands the number of available connections beyond what would fit on a standard two-slot back connector. Balanced AES inputs are supported with external baluns. The breakout cable includes an RS-232/RS-422 serial connector to embed metadata.

Chapter 1

Introduction

HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ can be operated locally (using card-edge controls); or operated and monitored remotely with control software applications such as CCS SNMP-based control applications, or CCS-compliant remote control panels such as NUCLEUS. The modules are QSEE™-compliant, so you can monitor a thumbnail when it is installed in an Ethernet-equipped FR6802+QXF or FR6822+ frame.

The HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ back connector requires two frame slots within an FR6802+XF, FR6822+, or FR6802+QXF frame. There is no backward compatibility provided for use with 6800/7000 series frames or FR6802+DM frames. HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ must be installed in a frame with fans.

Audio Embedding Modes

The audio embedder component in the HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ is composed of several smaller subcomponent blocks:

Chapter 3: Operation

page 57).

• One ancillary data stripper (ADS)

• Four audio embedding subcomponents

The first subcomponent is an ancillary data stripper ( ADS). This block removes all ancillary data packets in the input SDI stream, prior to embedding.

Following the ADS block are four separate audio-embedding subcomponents. Each subcomponent has the ability to operate on only one audio group, either appending or overwriting a predetermined group onto the SDI stream.

The audio embedding modes are Audio Group (1–4) Embedding Mode parameters (see

page 51). Table 3-2 briefly describes the Off, Append,

OverWrt, and Auto options available from each of the embedding modes.

page 51 to determine what audio groups are already

present in the incoming SDI signal)

When you select Append embedding, the HMX6803+ and OP +HMX+ attempts to insert the audio data and control packets immediately following the last existing data/control packet in the horizontal ancillary data space (ADS). Append embedding is only valid if the audio group to be embe dded does not already exist.

An audio group cannot be divided. In Append embeddin g, the audio group is always added following the last block in the ADS. If there is not enough room to append the audio group following the last block of auxiliary data or audio in the ADS, the attempt will result in an error, as shown in

Figure 3-6.

Figure 3-6. Append Embedding Mode Returns Error When Auxiliary Data Exists in all Audio Groups

Overwrite Embedding

When you select Overwrite embedding, the module attempts to overwrite any existing audio data and control packets of the same group number with the new audio data. This setting is valid only if the audio group to be embedded already exists. If the new sample distribution does not exactly match the existing audio data packet sample distribution, the embedder will mark some audio data packets for deletion (DID word will be set to 180h).

Figure 3-7. Overwrite Embedding Mode When There is No Pre-Existing Audio

To avoid sample distribution issues, activate the ADS Clean feature (see

“ADS Clean Parameter” on page 39).

When you attempt Overwrite embedding and there is no previous audio (as in

Figure 3-7), it will return an error because there is nothing to overwrite.

Error Description

Group (1–4) Append Embedding Error

Group (1–4) Overwrite Embed Error

HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual 31

To avoid embedding errors, follow these guidelines:

This error occurs if the embedder is set to Append mode for a particular audio group, but that audio group already exists in the incoming SDI signal.

In this case, the embedder does not embed another audio data and control packet of the same audio group, as this will result in incorrect audio sample distribution.

This error occurs if the embedder is set to Overwrite mode for a particular audio group, but that audio group does not exist in the incoming SDI signal

Page 48

Chapter 3: Operation

• Set the embedding mode to Auto. If the group is present, it will be overwritten; if it is not present, it will be appended. The overwrite and append errors are actually warnings that the operation is not being performed.

• In SD-SDI mode do not overwrite embedded groups of 20-bit audio samples with groups of 24-bit audio samples. The required extended data packet information appended to that group may over write a pre-existing audio group. For 24-bit audio embedding, use the ADS Clean feature provided.

Mono Channel Audio Embedding

To embed audio on a channel-by-channel (mono) basis, preserving some embedded audio channels while replacing others from external AES sources, follow these steps:

1. Configure the input audio routing path (Input > Audio > Routing) by selecting audio pair sources to the individual audio sample rate converters.

By default, SRCs 1-8 are assigned to the 8 deembedded audio sources (DMX Grp1 Ch1/2, DMX Grp1 Ch3/4, DMX Grp2 Ch1/2, etc.) and SRCs 9-16 are assigned to the external AES audio sources (AES1a/1b, AES2a/2b, etc.).

2. Configure the output audio routing path (Output > Audio Source Select > Embedded Audio) by selecting sources to each mono embedded audio output channel.

Each SRC (SRC1a, SRC1b, SRC2a, etc.) can be selected to any output embedded audio channel, allowing for any input-to-output au dio configuration.

3. Remove or preserve existing embedded audio with the ADS Clean parameter (Processing > Audio).

4. Use the Audio Group (1-4) Embedding Mode parameters (Processing > Audio > Embedding) to select the desired audio group embedding mode for each audio group.

•In Auto mode, non-existing audio groups are appended and existing

audio groups are overwritten.

•In Overwrite mode, the original audio is preserved using the settings in

step 2.

•In Off mode, audio groups are untouched unless the ADS Clean

parameter is enabled.

Example: Replacing Audio Channel 1 in Group 1 Only

To replace only embedded audio channel 1 in group 1 with audio from external AES 1A source, follow these steps:

1. Leave the input audio routing path at the default configuration (SRCs 1-8 from deembedded audio, SRCs 9-16 from external AES audio).

Chapter 3: Operation

Note

2. Route the output audio sources as follows (Output > Audio Source Select > Embedded Audio):

Output Emb Ch 1 Source Select: SRC9a Output Emb Ch 2 Source Select: SRC1b Output Emb Ch 3 Source Select: SRC2a Output Emb Ch 4 Source Select: SRC2b

3. Preserve existing embedded audio by setting the ADS Clean parameter (Processing > Audio) to No.

4. Set the audio group embedding mode (Processing > Audio > Embedding):

Audio Group 1 Embedding Mode: Auto Audio Group 2 Embedding Mode: Off

(incoming audio group 2 will be preserved) Audio Group 3 Embedding Mode: Off

(incoming audio group 3 will be preserved) Audio Group 4 Embedding Mode: Off

(incoming audio group 4 will be preserved)

Audio V-Fade

Input Audio Rate

To enable a smooth deembedded audio V-fade transition when switching video sources, set the

Audio V-Fade parameter to Enable, and the Audio LOV Output

Mode parameter to Mute.

AES outputs in this mode are not AES11 alignment compliant and are not aligned with video. For proper operation in this mode, set the user delay parameters for all audio channels (Processing > Audio > Delay) to the same value.

When embedding audio in PCM mode (Audio Ch [1–16] Format = PCM or Audio Ch [1–16] Format

PCM), the input audio sample rate may be from 32 kHz to 108 kHz. This

= Auto and Audio Ch [1–16] Format Feedback

input audio will be sample rate converted to 48 kHz prior to embedding in the video signal; as well, the embedder will indicate 48 kHz in the “Rate” word of the audio control packet for each embedded audio group.

When embedding audio in Non-PCM mode (Audio Ch [1–16]

Format

[1–16] Format Feedback

= Non-PCM or Audio Ch [1–16] Format = Auto and Audio Ch

= Non-PCM), the input audio sample rate must be

48 kHz, and it must be frequency locked to the source video. In this scenario, the sample rate conversion function is bypassed and the embedder will indicate 48 kHz in the “Rate” word of the audio control packet for each embedded audio group.

(The parameters are listed on page 45.)

Seamless Sound Function

When used in conjunction with HDX6803+ or SFS6803+ in a de-embedding mode, the HMX6803+ can provide an uninterrupted (“popless”) embedding and de-embedding path for the discrete audio channels regardless of the presence or input switching of the video, as long as a constant video standard is maintained.

For Dolby-E automatic header alignment to operate correctly, the input SDI must be frequency locked to the same reference source as the Dolby-E source.

Maintaining Audio/Video Alignment

Table 3-5.

When you use Sample Rate Conversion with PCM Audi o to chang e audio rates and provide audio synchronization with output video, this introduces a delay in the audio signal path.

36 HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual

Page 53

To maintain an alignment between video and audio in PCM mode, set the Audio/Video Align parameter (Processing > Video > Delay) to Yes. This introduces a matching video delay and maintains audio/video alignment.

When using Non-PCM Audio, or when sample rate converters are bypassed, set the Audio/Video Align parameter (Processing > Video > Delay) to No to avoid excessive video delay.

AFD/WSS/VI Detection and Insertion

AFD, WSS (625 only), and VI (526/625 only) embedded video metadata specify the active area to be displayed from a video input. These codes do not do any aspect ratio conversion themselves, but indicate how the vi deo should appear to systems capable of interpreting the data.

• Seven input parameters (Input > AFD/VI/WSS De-embedder) on HMX6803+ modules indicate the presence of AFD, WSS, and VI data when you determine the lines where this data is likely to appear, if present.

• The single processing parameter (Out Aspect Ratio, which appears at Processing > Video > AFD/VI/WSS) determines the options for the AFD Select and VI Select parameters.

• Twelve output parameters (Output > AFD/VI/WSS Embedder) determine the line to embed AFD, WWS, and/or VI codes on, the code(s) to be embedded, and what happens when a code disappears from the input.

Channel Word Length

When the incoming video is 3G or 1.5G HD-SDI (and you have the optional license key for those video input and outputs), the default value for all Audio Ch XX-XX Word Length parameters is 24 bits.

When the incoming video is SD-SDI, the default value is 20 bits. However, if at least one channel is set to 24 bits, the corresponding embedder will enable 24 bits embedding.

The Audio Channel Word Length parameters are listed on page 56.

Parameter Availability Based on Operating Mode

Some parameters may or may not be available depending on whether the module is in HD or SD mode.

• The HD parameters apply when the SDI Video Standard Set parameter is set to one of the HD operating modes, or when it is set to Auto and SDI IP Video Standard Feedback is one of the HD operating modes.

• The SD parameters apply when SDI Video Standard Set is set to either 525i 59.94 or 625i 50, or when it set to Auto and SDI IP Video Standard Feedback is 525i 59.94 or 625i 50.

Page 59

• Rotate the hex switch to another parameter number/letter in the current

bank, and then repeat step 4.

• Rotate the hex switch to “0” again to select a different bank, and then

repeat steps 3 and 4.

Use an available 6800+ software control option to aid in viewing, setting, and confirming the parameter value.

Recalling Factory Default Parameter Settings

“HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Parameters” on page 45 describes all of the

parameter settings for HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ modules, including the original factory defaults. To return this module to its factory default settings, you can either reset each parameter individually or do a global recall following this procedure.

1. Rotate the hex switch to 0.

2. Toggle the navigation switch to the bank number 0.

3. Use the control LEDs to verify which bank you have selected, or use an available 6800+ software control option (serial/local or Ethernet/remote) to aid in confirming your bank selection.

4. Rotate the hex switch to the global recall parameter F.

5. Toggle the navigation switch to On.

Chapter 3: Operation

Use an available 6800+ software control option to aid in viewing, setting, and confirming the parameter value.

Reading Software and Hardware Versions

The current software version of your module can viewed using a HTTP browser, a CCS-enabled control panel, or a CCS software application, such as Pilot or Navigator. See your RCP-CCS-1U Installation and Operation Manual, CCS software application user manual, or CCS software application online help for information on viewing software and hardware version numbers.

Changing Parameter Settings Using CCS Software

Before using CCS Navigator to change your module’s parameter settings, you must discover the module. Discovery is the process by which CCS Navigator finds, and then connects to your module.

Identifying Your Module in CCS Software

Whether your module is a HMX6803+ or an OP+HMX+, when you discover it in CCS Navigator or refresh it in + Pilot Lite, the module will be identified as a HMX6803+.

If your module has an optional laser OP+HMX+ component, the Laser Wavelength parameter displays the wavelength. If the module does not have an optical component, the Laser Wavelength parameter displays Not Installed.

In addition, if the module is an OP+HMX+, it will have one additional alarm that standard HMX6803+ modules do not. This alarm is Laser Failed.

HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual 43

Discovering Your Module Using CCS Software

To discover your module, your Navigator software must be in Build mode.

1. If the Discovery window is not open, click Tools > Discovery in the main menu.

A Discovery window opens, most likely in the bottom left corner of the screen.

2. Click Options, and then click Add.

3. Enter the IP address of the frame that contains your module, the frame that contains your ICE6800+ module, or the frame that contains a 6800+ETH module that provides access to your module.

4. Click OK to close the Add Host dialog b ox, and then OK again to close the Discovery Options dialog box.

5. Click Start. This triggers Navigator to run a discovery. Discovery Completed is displayed in the Discovery pane.

6. Click Save to save the results of your discovery to the Discovery folder of the Navigation pane.

7. Switch to Control mode by selecting Operational Mode > Control from the main menu.

8. Double-click HMX6803+ in the Navigation pane. The Control window opens displaying the module’s controls.

You can now switch to Control mode by selecting Operational Mode > Control from the main menu. Double-click HMX6803+ in the Navigation pane (OP+HMX+ modules are also referred to as HMX6803+ in the Navigator pane). The Control dialog box opens displaying the module’s controls.

Setting HMX6803+ Remote Control Parameters

Table 3-10 lists all of the remote control parameters and options for the

HMX6803+. T o access these parameters, you can use CCS Navigator , an HTTP web browser, or a third-party SNMP-based control application (depending on your host frame’s options). See your software user manual for more information.

Note that rows in the table that contain a range of numbers in parentheses indicate that a series of numbered parameters contain that same function and range.

Module Status LEDs

HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ modules do not have any card-edge alarms. Instead, a module status LED on the corner of the module lights up if an error is detected. See

Table 3-12 for a definition of the LED colors.

Alarms

Chapter 3: Operation

If a major or minor alarm is triggered within your HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ module, the Status LED lights red.

Alarms are usually logged and monitored within available software control applications (for example, CCS Navigator). You can only differentiate between major and minor alarms within a software control application. See the appropriate software control user manual or online help for more information.

The following settings can be made for each alarm within Pilot or Navigator software.

Table 3-13. Alarm Options

Alarm Option Effect

Enable/Disable This option toggles between Enabled and Disabled. If

the alarm is Enabled, an alarm condition will an alarm; but if it is Disabled, the alarm condition will be ignored. By default, all alarms are disabled.

Alarm priority This setting determines whether a triggered alarm will

be reported as major or minor. The range is 1–10. A priority of 6 or higher is a major alarm, and a priority of 5 or lower is a minor alarm

generate

Trigger (s) This option determines how long an alarm condition

must exist (in seconds) before the alarm is triggered. If the alarm level is reached for less time than the Trigger duration, the alarm will not trigger. Choose any duration from 0 to 7200 seconds (or 2 hours). If this option is set to 0 and the alarm condition exists for any period of time, the alarm will trigger.

Clear (s) This option determines the amount of time the alarm

condition must be in abatement in order for the alarm to be turned off. Choose any duration from 0 to 7200 seconds (or 2 hours). If this option is set to 0 and the alarm condition ceases for any period of time, the alarm will clear.

Ack When an alarm is active, click this option to allow

other users on the network to see that you have acknowledged the alarm.

Laser Safety Guidelines

This section describes important safety considerations when using laser modules.

Appendix A: Laser Safety Guidelines

Laser Safety

WARNING

Use of controls, adjustments, and procedures other than those specified in this document may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure.

Optical fiber telecommunication systems use semiconductor laser transmitters that emit infrared light that is normally not visible to the human eye. Although a conventional laser produces a small beam of light, the power density is very high, and it can cause damage to your eyes.

If a beam of laser light enters the eye, the eye magnifies and focuses the energy on the retina. The energy that reaches the retina can be as much as 100,000 times more than at the cornea and, as a result, it can burn the retina.

Laser transmission products are classified in four major groups (Class 1, 2, 3, and 4), according to their emissions and potential for causing injury. Fiber optic transmitter modules in this series are designated Class 1.

Precautions for Enclosed Systems

In its normal operating mode, an optical fiber communication system is totally enclosed and presents no risk of eye injury. However, if the fiber optic cables that interconnect various components of an optical fiber disconnect or break, you may be exposed to laser emissions. Also, technicians may be exposed to laser emissions during installation and servicing.

Unlike some other laser designs, semiconductor lasers have a highly divergent beam that decreases rapidly with distance. The greater the distance, the less energy will enter the eye, and the less potential risk for eye injury.

WARNING

Eye damage may occur if an optical instrument such as a microscope, magnifying glass, or eye loupe is used to stare at the energized fiber end.

Under normal operating conditions, optical fiber telecommunication systems are completely enclosed; nonetheless, observe the following precautions:

1. Do not stare into optical connectors or broken fibers.

2. Ensure technicians have satisfactorily completed an approved training course before performing installation or maintenance.

3. Ensure there are appropriate warning labels near the optical ports of the modules.

80 HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual

Page 97

Precautions for Unenclosed Systems

During service, maintenance, or restoration, an optical fiber telecommunication system is considered unenclosed. Under these conditions, follow these practices:

CAUTION

Only authorized, trained personnel shall be permitted to do service, maintenance, and restoration.

1. Avoid exposing the eye to emission s from unterminated, energized optical connectors at close distances.

2. Ensure that only authorized, trained personnel use optical test equipment during installation or servicing.

3. Turn off all laser sources before scanning a fiber with an optical test set.

4. Keep all unauthorized personnel away from the immediate area of the optical fiber systems during installation and service.

For guidance on the safe use of optical fiber communication systems in the workplace, consult ANSI Z136.2, American National Standard for Safe Use of Lasers in the U.S., or outside the U.S., IEC-60825, Part 2.
