Connections

Video Connections

The D VA 3720 MiniModule is configured with
standard 75 Ohm BNC connectors. Connection is
self-explanatory. We recommend the use of high
quality video cable 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.

Stand Alone Operation

The D VA 3720 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 MiniM o dules 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 3601
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 3601 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

!

If using more than one MiniModule in any
installation, the R FR 3005/3010 Rack frame
combination is highly recommended.

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.

Reference Manual D VA 3720 Version1.0

Reference Manual D VA 3720 Version1.0

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 MiniM o dules to be
secured onto a rack frame assembly for 19 inch
rack mounting. The R PS 3601 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 contro l 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.

Electrical Installation.

Stand Alone Operation

The MiniModule requires the R PS 3601 power brick
option for stand-alone operation. Three versions are
available R PS 3601 E for European markets, R PS
3601 U for the US markets or the universal R PS 3601­3 desk power supply . Please ensure you have the
correct power option for your region. The
connection to the module is made with a small 5­pin connector (see above). 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
3601 power modules. Ensure the 5-pin
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
someone stepping or tripping on the unit,
and locate the unit away from excessive
sources of heat and any sources or
moisture.

Locate Function

For large systems which have many modules in
various locations we have added a utility which will
help visually identify a module quickly. (When used
in conjunction with the optional control system and
software)

Once the module has been identified on the
control system it is possible to initiate the “locate”
function and flash the module LEDs 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 as well as any module edge LEDs that may
be used in the module.

Use of the locate function will not int erf ere with the
normal operation of the module.
