1. Introduction

The EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter is a communications protocol converter designed to enable
Miranda’s NV8288, NV8288-Plus or NV8500 Family (NV8144, NV8280 or NV8576) routers to
communicate with a SMS7000 system controller. A system controller is a hardware system that
runs a router control system application. The router control system sends commands to a router’s
control cards (i.e., circuit boards), telling them what switching tasks to perform.

The SMS7000 system controller requires a GSC Node Bus connection in order to connect and com­municate with the router. All of Miranda’s routers have a GSC Node Bus connection, except for the
NV8288, NV8288-Plus or NV8500 Family. The EC9535 solves this problem by providing an inter­face with a GSC Node Bus. The SMS7000 connects to the EC9535, which in turn, is connected to
the NV8288, NV8288-Plus or NV8500 Family router.

Product Overview

The EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter is used as an interface between a SMS7000 system control­ler and a specific Miranda router. Unlike a router, the EC9535 does not actively manage signals.
Instead the EC9535 provides a GSC Node Bus to serial interface that enables a SMS7000 system
controller to communicate with Miranda routers that feature only serial system controller connec­tions. In addition, the EC9535 provides high reliability through redundant power supplies and
redundant control cards, as well as deterministic communications processing.

Mounting

The EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter mounts in a rack with minimum dimensions of 2RU high
(3.47 inches, 88.1 mm), and 16.0 inches (406 mm) deep. When placing the rack in your facility, be
sure to leave enough space for air flow through the front and rear of the EC9535 and within easy
access of an AC power source. For mounting instructions, see Rack Mount

on page 10.

Fuses

The EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter has no user-serviceable fuses.

Cooling

The EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter has one fan providing forced air cooling. The fan is
accessed from the front of the frame. The fan draws cooling air from the front of the frame, through
the door, and exhausts it through a grill in the rear door. The EC9535 must have the door correctly
installed and closed for proper airflow through the chassis.

Caution If airflow is impeded, overheating may occur.

1. Introduction

Frame Front

Power Supply

Power for the EC9535 is supplied through the Miranda PS0007 power supply module. The PS0007
power supply module accepts a wide range of AC input voltages and produces +48 VDC outputs.
The power supply automatically senses the AC input voltage range (90–130 and 180–250 VAC)
and adjusts to maintain a relatively constant DC output; no voltage selection is required.

Frame Front

The front of the EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter features a single door. When facing the front of
the frame the right-hand side features an open grill through which a fan draws cooling air. A handle
is provided on the left-hand side. The door is hinged on the right-hand side and swings open from
left to right. By opening the door, you can access the control cards.

Figure 1-1 shows the front of the EC9535 with the door closed. Figure 1-1 shows the EC9535 with
the door removed. The card guides that house the control cards are visible.

Figure 1-2. Front of EC9535 with Door Removed

Control Cards

The EC9535 has two control cards (EM0374), one primary and one secondary. The secondary card
is optional and used as a redundant, or stand-by, controller. Each control card is equipped with a
special mezzanine (SM0220) that facilitates communication between the control cards and the
SMS7000 system controller. Each card receives commands from a router control system, and in
turn, sends commands to the connected router’s control cards. Only the active control card sends
commands. The active control card updates the stand-by control card.

Both the primary control card and the secondary control card receive commands from the router
control system, but only the active control card responds. Because both cards receive router control
system commands, if the active control card fails, the stand-by control card automatically takes
over processing without interruption. In addition, the primary control card and secondary control
card communicate with each other. Should either control card fail, the newly active control card
communicates the failure to the router control system.

Four LEDs on the front of the control card indicate the card’s status: low battery (red), alarm (red),
active (amber), and operating normally (green). For more information, see Indicator LEDs

Rear Connections

The rear of the EC9535 frame features a back plate containing several connections for managing
system functions and two power connections:

These connections enable you to connect to a system controller, reference signals, power sources
and system alarms. When facing the rear of the frame, the far right-hand side has a grill behind
which is located the fan for frame cooling. All system and power connections are located to the left
of the fan.

GSC Node Bus Control Connections

The EC9535 GSC Node Bus Converter has one port labeled ‘GSC NODE BUS’, as shown in
Figure 1-4. This connection is used to connect a SMS7000 system controller to the EC9535. In
turn, the EC9535 is connected to a NV8288, NV8288-Plus or NV8500 Family router. Through the
GSC Node Bus connection, the SMS7000 router control system sends commands to both the
EC9535’s primary and secondary control cards. In turn, the control cards forward the commands to
the attached router through serial connections. (See Serial Control Connections

Figure 1-7. Ethernet Control Connections (Rear View)

In order for EC9535 to communicate with UniConfig through an Ethernet connection, you must
configure an IP address for each of EC9535’s control cards. The IP address is set using UniConfig.
However, UniConfig runs on a PC and cannot communicate with EC9535 until an IP address has
been entered. Therefore, you must use a serial connection

— the ‘DIAG’ port(s) — to communicate

with the computer (PC) running UniConfig to define the IP address(es). See Making Diagnostic

Connections on page 13.

Note If using an Ethernet connection, 50ohm terminators must be installed on the

‘10 B 2’ connectors.

AES Reference Connections

The AES reference is used for clock generation, which provides a timing reference for AES syn­chronous signals and for timing circuits on the EC9535 control card. This reference is not currently
used, but provided for future flexibility. For more information, contact Technical Support. (See

‘PRI’ section, depending on the router.

b Connect the DB9 connector labeled ‘P4’ to the ‘CTRL 1’ connection in the ‘SEC CTRL’ or

‘SEC’ section, depending on the router.

Making Diagnostic Connections

The diagnostic connections enable the EC9535 to communicate with the UniConfig application.
UniConfig is installed on a unit, separate from the router (e.g., PC), and is used to perform system
setup tasks, and configure and monitor the EC9535. For information about using UniConfig, see
the UniConfig User’s Guide.

There are two sets of diagnostic connections: one set is located on the front of the control cards and
one set is located on the rear of the EC9535, labeled ‘DIAG’. Which is used is entirely up to you
and your facility needs. Usually the control card connection is used when the diagnostic connection
to UniConfig is temporary. The diagnostic connections on the rear of the EC9535 frame are most
often used to make a permanent connection to UniConfig. For a detailed description of the serial
connections, see Diagnostic Connections

Control Card Diagnostic Connections

A temporary diagnostic connection can be created using the DE9 port located on the front of the
primary control card. The baud rate for this port is locked to 9600.

How to Make Control Card Diagnostic Connections

1 Facing the front of the EC9535, open the door and locate the primary control card slot. The pri-

mary control card is located on top (above) and the secondary control card is located below.

Alarm Indicator Equipment

An external alarm indicator can be created to display visual cues when a failure has occurred on the
EC9535 frame. LEDs can be wired to specific pins on a DE9 connector such that each LED indi­cates what specific router module has failed.

The ‘ALARM’ connection on the rear of the EC9535 uses a DE9 connector. An “alarm” or ON
condition occurs when the connection between an alarm pin and Alarm_COM (common) opens.
The alarm turns OFF when the connection between Alarm_COM and the alarm pin closes again.

To create an indicator box, connect to the ‘ALARM’ connection using a DE9 female connector,
wiring as shown in Figure 2-7. Each pin monitors a specific function and activates a specific alarm.

3. Configuration

Before being placed into service, the EC9535 must be configured for your particular router control
system and settings. Configuration is managed through UniConfig, which resides on a PC and is
separate from the router. For information on using UniConfig, see the UniConfig User’s Guide. For
instructions on configuring EC9535, see the section “Configuring EC9535” within the UniConfig

User’s Guide.

When configuring the EC9535, the EC9535’s ‘CTRL 1’ serial port must be set to the same baud
rate as the controlled router’s ‘CTRL 1’ serial port rate. (See Serial Control Connections

3.) By default, the NV8288, NV8288-Plus and NV8500 Family routers have the ‘CTRL 1’ ports set
to 38,400 baud. However, the number of destinations that can be switched per frame in a system
using a SMS7000 system controller, an EC9535, and a NV8288, NV8288-Plus or NV8500 Family
router is determined by the EC9535 and the router serial port baud rates. Because higher rates may
be used, you may want to set the serial ports at the highest available rate (115,200 baud) unless
doing so results in communication errors. For information on setting the serial port baud rates for
routers, see the “Setting Up Communication” section within the UniConfig User’s Guide.

AES/EBU (Audio Engineering Society/European Broadcasting Union) a professional serial interface for

transferring digital audio from CD and DVD players to amplifiers and TVs. AES/EBU is typically
used to transmit PCM and Dolby Digital 5.1, but is not tied to any sampling rate or audio standard.

The AES routers support AES3id and provide 75Ω BNC connectors. AES3id is specified for 75Ω
coaxial cable up to 1000 meters. (AES3 uses 110Ω shielded twisted pair (STP) cable with XLR
connectors up to a distance of 100 meters.)

The term “Async AES” refers to an asynchronous AES-compliant audio signal, whereas “Sync
AES” refers to a synchronous AES signal with a data rate of 48kbps. A system where various sig­nals are unlocked (not synchronized). Switching between signals leads to unpredictable results.

technique used to create an SD digital output signal from a composite analog video input, or to
describe the means by which SD signal is coded into an analog composite video output signal. Path
delay and subcarrier phase may not be precisely maintained in an AVC conversion path within an
NV5128 frame. AVC coding provides a cost-effective method to provide feeds to picture monitors
without requiring an external conversion device. AVC modules are not a substitute for professional­grade format converters.”

baud rate or modulation rate; the number of distinct symbol changes (signaling events) made to the
transmission medium per second in a digitally modulated signal or a line code.

DB25 A DB25 connector is the common 25-pin subminiature D connector. Most modern PCs use a

female DB25 connector for the printer parallel port connector.

DE9 Sometimes mistakenly referred to as a DE9 connector, a DE9 connector is the common 9-pin sub-

miniature D connector. The serial port of modern PCs employ a male DE9 connector.

Device As the term is used in a NV9000 system, a device is a grouping of input and output ports that define

a logical entity. (The logical entity does not have to be a real entity.) For example, a system might
have 3 levels: video, AES, and time code. A hypothetical device in this system is Camera 1, which
consists of video on input port 1 of the video router, AES on input port 5 of the AES router, and
time code on input port 8 of the time code router. (The EC9535 does presently include time-code
routers.).

ESD Electrostatic discharge

HD HD and HD-SDI are equivalent in Miranda terminology. An HD signal is a high definition, serial

digital interface video format that conforms to the SMPTE 292M standard.

I/O Inputs and outputs are the physical connections (e.g., BNCs) on the back of the routing switcher.

The term “input port” is used interchangeably with “input” and the term “output port” is used inter­changeably with “output.”

Matrix 1. The rack-mounted EC9535 chassis or frame which contains the subassemblies (modules, back-

planes, power supplies, etc.) which comprise the EC9535.

2. An X-Y array of crosspoint switches, a crosspoint matrix.

Module 1. In the EC9535, modules are electronic assemblies that plug into the matrix. Modules include but

are not limited to input, output and controller printed circuit boards also called active cards.

2. Any removable subassembly may be referred to as a module. Router backplanes may occasion­ally be referred to as modules.

Operator The term operator usually refers to users other than the system administrator. An operator is respon-

sible for making most of the routes.

Physical Level In a GSC Node Bus Converter system, a physical level is the same thing as a router. The idea is that

multiple routers provide different “levels” on which to switch the signals of devices. Any particular
device might send or receive HD, SD, AES, time-code, or machine-code signals. A GSC Node Bus
Converter switches one type, or level, of a device’s signal set.

Matrix modules are said to be in physically contiguous slots in a EC9535 frame when both the
inputs and outputs associated with those slots are in numerical sequence. For example, input slots 5
and 6 are physically contiguous because inputs 1-16 and 17-32 are in numerical sequence. In the
same way, output slots 4 and 16 are contiguous because outputs 49-64 (slot 4) and 65-80 (slot 16)
are in numerical sequence.

standard in effect at the time the product was developed.

RU Rack Units. A standard measure or size for frames (1.75 inches).

SD SD and SDI are equivalent terms in NVISION documents. An SD signal is a standard definition,

Source/Desti­nation

The term “source device” is used interchangeably with “source” and the term “destination device”
is used interchangeably with “destination.” A source is a device that is connected to one or more
input ports. A destination is a device that is connected to one or more output ports. An example of
such a device would be a monitor.

A device can be both a source and destination. An example of such a device is a VTR.

SWB (Super Wide Band). A term originated by Miranda that refers to the ability of a router to pass a

wide range of digital bit rates and formats. Miranda’s SWB supports data rates from about
15

Mb/s to 1.5 GB/s.

Input signals must be nominally 800mV p-p and bi-level or tri-level in nature. The EC9535 video
routers bypasses re-clocking for non-video rates. Rates that are re-clocked include common SD
