1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the DMG 3200/3100/3000. This manual describes how to install,
configure, and operate your new equipment. It is written for professional operators of video distribution
systems and assumes a prerequisite level of technical knowledge.
Page 12 (306)
DMG 3200/3100/3000 – User Manual
2 Installation and Safety
2.1 Installation and Safety
The unit is designed to offer operators reliabi lity and flexibility. It consists of a chassis in which a
number of modules can be installed. To cater to specific system requirements, the chassis can be
configured to host functional modules best suited for a given scenario.
Sencore products can be delivered in different chassis variations - 1RU chassis and a 4RU
chassis. The produc t models DMG 3000 and DM G 3200 represents the 4RU chassis, while the
product models DMG 3100 and DMG 3200 represents 1RU chassis.
2.1.1 The 4RU Chassis
The 4RU chassis consists of a total of 18 slots all of which can host functional modules. Slot
number 0 is dedicated to host the switch module and slot number 17 can only host multi-slot input
modules. Alternatively a second sw itch module can be placed in slot 17 for some redundancy
configurations. The remainin g 16 slots are ident ical and can be occ upied by any of th e functional
modules available. A 4RU chassis including a mandatory switch module, power supply
connectors, and module slots is shown in Figure 2.1 and 2.2. Power modules and fan m odules
are inserted from the back (figure 2.3 showing the DMG 3200 4RU).

2.1.1.1 Product models
4RU chassis models: DMG 3000 and DMG 3200
2.1.1.2 Ventilation
The 4RU chassis with Telco mounting has forced air flow from front to back in the chassis,
allowing for multiple units to be stacked above each other with no space in between. However,
adequate space must be provided in front of and behind the unit for effective ventilation. For
Broadcast mounting, air flow will be from back to front.
2.1.1.3 Replacing the power supply m odule
The 4RU chassis can be installed with one or two power supply modules (DMG 3200 always
comes with two power supply modules). The modules can be exchanged from the rear of the
unit. The chassis delivered with a single power module can be updated by acquiring additional
power module.
If power is lost in one of the Power supplies, the other can feed the entire chassis. It is
recommended to connect each input power at different circuits.
