Connections
Audio / Video Connections
The D AD 3220 B MiniModule is configured with
standard 75 Ohm BNC connectors for AES3-id
digital audio. Connection is self-explanatory. We
recommend the use of high quality cable suitable
for digital applications to reduce the risk of
interference or errors due to excessive cable
attenuation.
Note. Due to the compact design of the module it
will be necessary to use a connection tool to
secure the BNC video connectors to the module.
Page 10
Reference Manual D AD 3220 B Version 1.0

Stand Alone Operation
The D AD 3220 B MiniModule can be used in a
stand alone application. There are two options for
the use of the module in this way.
a) Using the R FR 3005 Rack Frame 1 option. This
allows up to any 10 of the MiniModules to be
secured onto a rack frame assembly for 19 inch
rack mounting. This keeps the modules secured,
organized and out of the way. The R PS 3001
power brick option or the R FR 3010 option is
required to power each module. Please refer to
the R FR 3005 Reference Manual supplied with
this option for more details.
b) Single Use. The MiniModule can be powered
independently with the R PS 3001 option and
used in any location where this functionality is
required.
!
Caution. Care needs to be taken
when using the module in this way, as
it is not physically secured. Keep the
module away from the floor to avoid
the risk of someone stepping or
tripping on the unit, and locate the
unit away from excessive sources of
heat and any sources or moisture.
If using more than one MiniModule in any
installation, the R FR 3005/3010 Rack frame
combination is highly recommended.
Page 12
Reference Manual D AD 3220 B Version 1.0
Multiple Units
Most applications will require more than one
MiniModule, which can include any of the
available Series 3000 MiniModule product range.
There are two options for mounting multiple units.
a) Using the R FR 3005 Rack Frame option. This
allows up to any 10 of the MiniModules to be
secured onto a rack frame assembly for 19 inch
rack mounting. The R PS 3001 power brick
option or the R FR 3010 option is required to
power each module. Please refer to the R FR
3005 Reference Manual for more details.
b) Using the R FR 3010 Rack frame extension
option. Can be combined with the R FR 3005
Rack frame option. Each module plugs into a
connection bus, which provides common
power for all modules. (no R PS external power
supplies are needed). Remote control and
status monitoring of all modules is possible with
the addition of the R CT 5020 rack controller
and R CT 5030 master controller options. Please
refer to the respective reference manuals for
these options for details of mechanical
installation.
The very small size and density of the MiniModules
combined with the available rack frame options
allows the addition of a complex and custom signal
distribution system without taking any additional
front rack space. The rack frames are designed for
installation in the back of 19-inch racks where there
is normally plenty of available space. Ideal for
mobile truck installations and facility expansions
where space is at a premium.

Reference Manual D AD 3220 B Version 1.0
Electrical Installation.
Stand Alone Operation
The MiniModule requires the R PS 3001 power brick
option for stand-alone operation. Two versions are
available R PS 30001 E for European markets and R
PS 30001 U for the US markets. Please ensure you
have the correct power option for your region. The
connection to the module is made with a small 5pin connector, which has a twist bayonet securing
system. Please make sure the connection is solid
and locked in place. A strain relief is included within
the module to prevent excessive strain on the
connection.
Signal connections should be made with care,
please ensure connections are correct and
compatible equipment is feeding / receiving the
signals from the module or damage can result.
Caution. Only use the optional LYNX R PS
3001 power modules. Please make sure
the brick is not connected to the main
!
!
supply when making the DC power
connection to the module. Ensure the 5pin power connector is locked securely in
place.
Caution. Care needs to be taken when
using the module in this way, if it is not
physically secured. Keep the module
away from the floor to avoid the risk of
Page 14
someone stepping or tripping on the unit,
and locate the unit away from excessive
sources of heat and any sources or
moisture.

Switch Function Detail
All settings are stored in Flash Ram inside the
module (see Auto Store section in this manual).
Settings will be recalled on power up.
Dip Switch 1
This switch enables local control using the dipswitches. ON enables local control and makes
selections on the dipswitch active, and OFF
disables local control (locking out any local
changes)
Note.
When Switch 1 is initially switched to ON, the static
settings currently set on the dip-switches may not
reflect the actual configuration stored in the
module. This is because all settings can be
changed from the remote control system or via the
Service Adapter. This overrides the local dip
switches regardless of Switch 1 ON/OFF setting. To
ensure the module reads the local dip switch
settings it is recommended to toggle Switch 1 ON-
OFF-ON before making any local changes to the
dip switches
.
Dip Switch 2
This switch selects the mode of operation for the
module. ON selects dual 1 into 4 mode where each
individual AES input is distributed to four outputs.
OFF selects 1 into 8 mode where input AES in 1 is
distributed to all 8 outputs.

Locate Function
For larger systems which may have multiple
MiniModules of the same type in a single rack, or
multiple rack systems on a large central control
system we have added a useful utility which will
help to visually locate a suspect module quickly
(When used in conjunction with the optional
control system and software)
Once the specific module has been selected on
the control system there is a locate button on the
top of the GUI:
Locate Function in Control System
When Locate is selected the status indicator on the
GUI and the module LED`s will flash yellow in the
following continuous sequence.
3 short flashes…. Pause…. 3 short flashes …
This uses the alarm LED located on the front of the
module and in some cases any channel or status
LED`s that may be used in the module.
Use of the locate function will not interfere with the
normal operation of the module.
For more details on this feature please check the
documentation supplied with the controller
software.
