SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The DD switcher is designed in conformity with the safety regulations EN60950 /
VDE 0805 (protection class 1) and are in an unobjectionable condition when leaving the factory.
Information on the following pages provides important safety guidelines for Operators and Service Personnel. Specific warnings and cautions will be found throughout the manual where they apply, but may not appear here. Please read and follow
the important safety information, noting especially those instructions related to risk
of fire, electrical shock or injury to person.
Warning:
Any instructions in this manual that require opening the equipment cover or
enclosure are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk
of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than contained in the
manual unless you are qualified to do so.
With the standard modules installed, the E Box and panels are heavy. During installation and until secured in the rack or the desk, use an appropriate lifing device to lift
and support the mainframe. Failure to follow this precaution can result in injury to
personnel and damage to equipment.
The equipment shall be installed in Restricted Access Areas.
The switcher is designed for operation with one-phase mains earthed neutral conductor. When setting up and connecting the switcher, connect the external earth
line always before connecting the power line.
Thus is ensured that in case of a short-circuit between mains and case, the voltage
is led to earth.
For this reason, never disconnect the earth line from the device while it is operated.
The switcher must be only connected to an earthed socket. Check functioning of
the protective conductors. It must not be live. Any discontinuity in the protective
conductor may lead to a situation in which operational safety of the switcher can not
longer guaranteed. Earthing has to be performed according to the regional safety
regulations. When installing the lines, it is necessary to observe the national standards.
When mounting the switcher EBox and panel, care should be taken to allow for adequate air circulation. Detailed information you can find in the respective sections in
the installation manual of the switchers. Keep the EBox door always closed during
operation.
The admissible ambient temperature range of the switcher is within
+5°C and +35°C. Optimum operation is ensured at an ambient temperature of
25 °C ± 5 °C.
Make sure that the switcher is protected against humidity and keep dry!
Depending on the order of the customer, the switcher is adjusted to operate on
115V or 230V. The respective adjustment is indicated on the connector panel of the
unit. Before connecting power to the switcher, make sure that the voltage adjustment in the unit corresponds with the line voltage available in the studio.
Switching-over to another line voltage has to be carried out by qualified service personnel.

Caution – Double-pole or neutral fusing! After acting of the protective devices,
parts of the equipment may remain under voltage. Each main input is is protected
by two primary-side fuses located on the power terminal of the switchers units
(mainframe, panel). Additionally, the power supply units will be protected by internal fuses.
When replacing the fuses, make sure that a fuse link of same type and same current rating is used. Never use a mended fuse! Do not short-circuit the fuseholder!
Operate the switcher in the closed condition only, i.e. the mainframe with closed
door and locked panel. There are no parts inside the unit to be adjusted by the user
or parts to be exchanged.
Caution: Opening the mainframe door or the panel desk may give
access to live parts.
In such cases, the unit has to be disconnected completely from the mains.
If, however, working on the opened mainframe or opened panel is inevitable,
this has only to be done by qualified service personnel being informed about
the dangers involved.
Attention! Capacitors may still carry a residual charge!
If, for example, due to a failure, safe operation of the switcher is no longer ensured,
put the switcher out of operation and secure it against further use.
Do not insert or remove plug-in cards during operation.
Make sure that no parts protrude into the air conditioning holes. This might lead to
contact with dangerous voltages or to damages of sensitive circuit parts.
To prevent damages in the control panel gear no drinks in top of the desk. Penetrated liquids can lead to destroying the control panel boards. Make sure that no
small parts (e.g. office parenthesis) fall into the opening under the levers. This can
lead to short-circuits and damages.
The EMV regulations are only applicable when correctly shielded cables are used
for the installation of the equipment. This applies to video cables as well as control
cables. Corresponding cables can be obtained from BTS.
Run all connection cables in covered cable ducts (risk of stumbling).
For main connection, only use the supplied connection cable or a checked cable of
the same type.
The controller boards of the DD switchers contains a lithium battery, which has to be
exchanged every five years. Detailed information you can find in the section Ex-
change of the lithium battery in the service manual.
Used batteries must be disposed of carefully to avoid environmental damage.

SICHERHEITSHINWEISE
Die DD Mischer entsprechen den Sicherheitsbestimmungen von EN60950 / VDE
0805 (Schutzklasse 1) und haben das Werk in sicherheitstechnisch einwandfreiem
Zustand verlassen.
Um diesen Zustand zu erhalten und einen gefahrlosen Betrieb sicherzustellen,
sind die nachfolgenden und die in den einzelnen Abschnitten des Handbuches aufgeführten Sicherheitshinweise, insbesondere die Hinweise bezüglich Brandgefahr, elektrischer Schlag und Verletzungsgefahren, zu beachten:
Achtung:
Alle Wartungsarbeiten dürfen nur von qualifiziertem Fachpersonal ausgeführt werden. Um die Gefahren eines elektrischen Schlages (hohe Spannungen, gefährliche Energien), Brandgefahr und Verletzungen zu vermeiden,
sind bei Wartungsarbeiten, insbesondere wenn Gehäuseteile geöffnet werden, strikt die Angaben in der entsprechenden Anleitung zu befolgen. Andere als die angegebenen Wartungsarbeiten dürfen nur von Personen ausgeführt werden, die eine spezielle Befähigung dazu besitzen.
Mit den Standard-Modulen bestückt wiegt die E-Box des DD20 / DD30 ca. 45 kg.
Um Verletzungen von Personen oder Beschädigung des Gerätes zu vermeiden
sind bei der Installation und Montage in einem Geräteschrank entsprechende Hebeeinrichtungen einzusetzen.
Der Mischer ist für den Einsatz in besonderen Betriebsräumen mit beschränktem/
überwachten Zutritt vorgesehen.
Zur Spannungsversorgung ist ein Einphasen-Netz mit geerdetem Nulleiter notwendig. Beim Aufstellen und Anschließen des Mischers ist die Verkabelung einer
externen Erdleitung immer vor der Verkabelung der Netzleitung vornehmen. Hiermit wird gewährleistet, daß im Falle eines Kurzschlusses zwischen Netz und Gehäuse die Spannung gegen Erde abgeleitet wird. Daher die Erdleitung niemals
während des Betriebes vom Gerät lösen.
Der Mischer darf nur an eine geerdete Steckdose angeschlossen werden. Die
Funktion des Schutzleiters ist zu überprüfen. Er darf keine Spannung führen. Jede
Unterbrechung des Schutzleiters ist geeignet den Mischer gefährlich zu machen.
Die Erdung muß nach den regionalen Sicherheitsbestimmungen vorgenommen
werden. Bei der Leitungsinstallation sind die landesüblichen Normen zu beachten.
Bei der Montage der EBox und des Bedienpultes ist auf ausreichende Belüftung zu
achten. Detaillierte Angaben für die Belüftung finden Sie in den entsprechenden
Abschnitten des Installationshandbuches. Die Tür der E-Box ist während des Betriebes immer geschlossen zu halten.
Die zulässige Umgebungstemperatur beträgt +5 °C bis +35 °C.
Optimaler Betrieb ist bei einer Umgebungstemperatur von 25 °C ± 5 °C
gegeben.
Feuchtigkeitseinwirkungen (hohe Luftfeuchte, Flüssigkeiten) beeinträchtigen
den Betrieb!
Der Diamond digital Mischer ist entsprechend des Kundenauftrages entweder
auf den Spannungsbereich 115V oder 230V eingestellt. Die jeweilige Einstellung

auch nach dem Auslösen einer Sicherung unter Spannung bleiben!
Die Absicherung des Mischers erfolgt durch primärseitig angebrachte Schmelzeinsätze in den Netzanschlußeinheiten der Geräte (Bedienpult und E-Box).
Beim Auswechseln dieser Sicherungen nur eine Sicherung vom angegebenen Typ
und mit gleicher Nennstromstärke als Ersatz verwenden. Das Verwenden überbrückter Sicherungen oder das Kurzschließen des Sicherungshalters ist unzulässig.
Der Mischer ist im geschlossenen Zustand zu betreiben, d.h. E-Box-mit geschlossener Tür und Pult verriegelt. Im inneren der Geräte befinden sich keine Elemente,
die vom Benutzer während des Betriebs einzustellen oder auszutauschen sind.
Achtung: Beim Öffnen der EBox-Türen oder beim Öffnen des Pultes,
können Teile zugänglich werden, die Netzspannung führen.
In solchen Fällen ist das Gerät vorher von der Netzspannung abzutrennen.
Sind Arbeiten an der geöffneten EBox oder geöffneten Bedienpultes unvermeidlich, so darf dies nur durch eine Fachkraft durchgeführt werden, die mit
den damit verbundenen Gefahren vertraut ist.
ACHTUNG! Kondensatoren können noch geladen sein!
Ist - z. B. infolge eines Schadens - ein gefahrloser Betrieb nicht mehr möglich, muß
der Mischer außer Betrieb gesetzt, vom Netz abgetrennt und gegen Wiederinbetriebnahme gesichert werden.
Platinen dürfen nicht während des Betriebes aus dem Mischer herausgezogen
oder eingesteckt werden.
Keine Teile in die Lüftungsöffnungen stecken! Dies kann zu Kontakt mit gefährlichen Spannungen oder zur Zerstörung von empfindlichen elektronischen Bauteilen führen.
Zum Schutz vor Störungen und Beschädigung keine Getränke auf dem Bedienpult
abstellen. Das Eindringen von Flüssigkeiten kann zu Zerstörung von Platinen führen. Ebenso sollten keine kleinen Metallteile, z. B. Büroklammern, auf dem Bedienfeld ablegen. Durch die Öffnungsschlitze der Blendhebel können sie ins Gerät fallen und zu Kurzschlüssen und Zerstörungen führen.
Die EMV -Bestimmungen werden nur eingehalten, wenn bei der Installation der Geräte vorschriftsmäßig abgeschirmte Kabel verwendet werden. Dies gilt sowohl für
Video- als auch für Steuerkabel.
Entsprechende Kabel sind bei Philips BTS erhältlich.
Sämtliche Anschlußkabel in abgedeckten Kabelschächten verlegen (Stolpergefahr).

1.2 SWITCHER ARCHITECTURE
The switchers are set up as A/B mixers in the background (BGND) with 1 or 2 overlaid key layers for each mixing level. The next transition principle is consistently
realized and includes also the downstream key stage.
The mixing levels and the preset/program stage/downstream keyers are set up
with the same p.c. cards and do not differ in their hardwares.
For post-production, the mixing level of the switchers DD20 and DD30 can be
switched over to the layer mode. In this case, 2 keyers are available for chroma or
luminance key and 2 keyers for wipe signals.
The preview facilities (AUTO PREVIEW, TRANSITION PREVIEW) for preparing
the next contributions in the mixing levels are realized.
Integration of an external DVE unit into the signal path of the switcher is possible.
In this case, the signal path of the mixing level can be separated, the video signal
can be fed out to the DVE and the signal manipulated by the DVE can be looped
again into the signal path.
1.3 TV STANDARDS
The switcher processes without hardware modifications digital serial video signals
with the aspect ratios 4:3 and 16:9 (270 Mbits/s) in the standards 625 lines/50 Hz
2:1 interlaced and 525 lines/60 Hz 2:1 interlaced.

1.4 CONNECTION FACILITIES
1.4.1 INPUTS
The switcher exclusively disposes of serial digital video inputs which, depending
on the application, can be used without restrictions, either as background, key or
fill signal in all mixing levels (including the downstream keyer).
As a standard feature of the switcher, 12 (DD5), 16 (DD10), 24 (DD20) and 32
(DD30) inputs are provided.
The inputs are internally terminated and can process video signals in the format 4:3
or 16:9 (270 Mbits/s) in the standards 525/60 2:1 or 625/50 2:1 (no mixed forms).
All inputs are provided with an equalizer for compensating cable lengths of max.
150 m.
Furthermore, all inputs are provided with an automatic delay time correction which
can compensate delay inequalities referred to the blackburst input in the range of
± 1/4 line.
Asynchronous signals or inputs not connected, are detected and indicated.
For synchronization of the switcher in the studio, a loop-through reference input for
an analog blackburst signal is provided.
1.4.2 MATTE GENERATORS
For background designing, 2 central matte generators are provided in the switchers DD20 and DD30, which can be optionally used as background, key or fill signal.
For the types DD5 and DD10, only one central matte is available.
As a standard feature, in addition to plain mattes, extremely soft color floating effects between two optional colors or black or white are possible in H or V direction
or diagonally. Position and angle of the diagonal can be varied in steps of 2 degrees.
Alternatively, color or brightness floating can be determined by the signal from a
wipe generator of mixing level ME1.
Optionally, a memory can be assigned to the matte generators, which stores wipe
or key signals, thus enabling complex color and brightness floating effects.
Page 20

11
1.4.3 VIDEO OUTPUTS
The switcher is provided with the following video outputs:
• 4 program outputs
• 1 clean-feed output (before or between DSK, switchable)
• 1 output for second DSK preview in PP stage
• 3 program outputs for each mixing level
For preview purposes, the following outputs are available:
• 1 preview output for each mixing level, mask signal and wipe pattern signal
can be additively connected with the video signal.
• 1 preset output for preset/program stage, mask signal and wipe pattern sig-
nal can be additively connected with the video signal.
All outputs are delay-compensated. The digital horizontal and vertical blanking intervals are transparent for the background signal. For the case of routing switcher
changeovers in the vertical blanking interval, the lines 6 and 319 are faded to black.
1.4.4 FURTHER OUTPUTS
For special applications (integration of a DVE, preview of sources, measuring purposes), the switcher is provided (standard feature) with 5 (DD10) or 5 to 11
(optional for DD20 and 30) serial AUX outputs which can be optionally connected
with the following signals:
• all inputs
• all central mattes
• PGM: ME 1-2, PP, DSK (depending on the expansion phase)
• PVW: ME 1-2, PP, DSK (depending on the expansion phase)
• the signals of the frame stores (4:2:2)

1.5 MIXING STAGES
For background designing (BGND), a mixing stage (Mix, Add, Wipe with border)
is available for each mixing level (ME).
The mix and key stages are set up in a cascaded way and are provided with tappings for coupling in and out signals for a DVE unit. Re-entry of the mixing levels
is possible.
The preset/program stage (PP) at the output of the switcher is identically designed
with regard to the mixing stage. Thus, for post-production purposes, a full mixing
level is available.
A separate channel is available for preview in the mixing levels, which is supplied
with equal input signals. Different control signals enable to preview the next contribution (AUTO PREVIEW) or to make a transition without affecting the program
signal (TRANSITION PREVIEW).
1.5.1 INPUTS/OUTPUTS
As inputs, all video inputs, the signal of a preceding or succeeding mix/key stage,
the signal of a frame store and the central mattes are available for each mixing
stage.
Additionally, a wipe border matte generator for the border of the wipe generator is
provided for each mixing stage.
As outputs, program signal and preview signal are available to the user. In the preset/program stage, a clean-feed output signal is additionally available, which can
be optionally tapped off after the preset/program stage or after the downstream
keyer.
1.5.2 AMPLITUDE MIX
Transition between two input signals (MIX) is possible by hard cut (CUT), automatic
fading (AUTO), automatic transition (EXTRA) or manually with the fader (FADE).
For transition, different fading characteristics (linear , gamma, etc.) are possible.
Transition via a black signal (BLACK PRESET) can also be performed.
For additive mixing (ADD), the output level can be more than 100% and is internally
limited.
1.5.3 PATTERN MIX (WIPE)
Pattern mix of two optional input signals is made with a control signal supplied by
the wipe generator.
Optionally, a second wipe generator (from DD10) can be inserted per mixing level
(example: WIPE in PATTERN KEY).
Additionally, the result of this manipulation can be provided with a border which can
be filled with a wipe border matte. A special signal of the wipe generator (WiperWashTM), enables color wash effects of the border being coupled with the wipe pattern.
The border can be switched into the video signal (CUT), the transparency (OPACITY) is selectable.
Switcher DD20/30 enables in conjunction with the mask store option to provide the
wipe border with a shadow.
Page 22

13
1.5.4 DIGITAL VIDEO EFFECTS (DVE)
Pattern mix of a video signal supplied by the DVE. The DVE additionally supplies
a key signal of the transformed DVE video signal. The procedure of the DVE is
coupled with the fader (manual or automatic transition).
1.5.5 WIPE BORDER MATTE GENERATOR
Beside the central matte generators, an additional matte generator is provided for
coloring the borders of the wipe generators. Beside unicolored mattes, extremely
soft color floating effects (softness 20 - 80 %) between two optional colors or black
or white are possible in H or V direction or diagonally. Position and angle of the diagonal can be varied in steps (2°). Futhermore, color floating can be varied by a signal
from the wipe generator).
1.5.6 LAYER MODE
For post-production, the layer mode (DD20 and DD30 only) enables to change the
background mixing stage into two independent key stages. The signals of the wipe
generators or the DVE can be used as control signals.
Page 23
1. General Diamond digital
14
1.6 KEY STAGES
1 or 2 key stages with border facilities are available in the individual mixing levels
for effects background designing or for caption insertion (chroma key), (lum key or
linear key). The priority can be changed (OVER).
The key stages are placed after the background mixing stage, set up in a cascaded
way and provided with taps for coupling in and out a signal for a DVE unit.
The downstream keyer (DSK) at the output of the switcher is identically designed
with regard to the key stages (2 key stages).
After the key stages, a facility is provided for fade to black (FTB). In DD5 and DD10
which do not dispose of a preset/program stage, only 1 downstream keyer is available for luminance or linear key.
For preview, a separate channel is available in the key stages, which can be connected with equal input signals but different control signals. It is possible to preview
the next contribution (AUTO PREVIEW) or to make a transition without affecting
the program signal (TRANSITION PREVIEW).
For post-production, the layer mode permits to use the keyers as layers (DD20 and
DD30 only). The layers can be interchanged.
1.6.1 INPUTS/OUTPUTS
As key and fill signals, each keyer can dispose of more than 2 buses, and the DVE
bus of all inputs, the stores for video and key signals, and the central mattes. In
addition, own matte generators for fill and border are provided for each keyer.
For the downstream keyer in switcher DD5 or DD10, a bus with all inputs and the
signal of a matte generator are available as a fill signal.
Generation of the key signal is possible for each keyer from all inputs (SELF-KEY).
As internal key sources, wipe and mask signals are available. It is also possible to
feed a key signal modified by the DVE, into the key signal path (DVE LOOP).
In the setup mode, a key signal can be assigned to each fill signal, which has to be
switched together with selection of fill (couple). This assignment can optionally be
cancelled (split) in order to select another key signal.
As outputs, key or combined key signals, the signal of the key/mask store are available to the user via the AUX outputs. For preview purposes, the mask signal can
also be additively connected with the preview signal.
1.6.2 KEY VERSIONS
Chroma key
As a standard feature, a linear chroma key with foreground desaturation and background transition is realized.
Adjustment of the key parameters can be made automatically (for blue as key color
without measuring window, for other colors with measuring window) and can be
corrected manually .
The key signal can be also inverted (KEY INVERT).
The transparency (OP ACITY) of each keyer can be adjusted separately.
Page 24
1. GeneralDiamond digital
15
Luminance key/linear key
The key generator enables a luminance key. The signal can be bordered by means
of the borderliner.
It is possible to key on all luminance values (CLIP). The rise time (SOFTNESS) of
the signal can be steepened. The key signal can be inverted (KEY INVERT).
The LINEAR KEY mode allows the use of key and fill signals (on black background)
from external sources, e.g. caption generators. The rise times of the signals cannot
be varied in this case.
The key can be faded into the video signal (MIX), switched (CUT) or faded over by
means of a wipe generator (WIPE). The transparency (OPACITY) of each keyer
can be adjusted separately .
1.6.3 MASK GENERATORS
For restricting the key signal to defined picture areas, a masking generator is provided for each key generator. Furthermore, the mask signal can be used as a key
signal.
As a standard feature, a square mask is available for each keyer. Alternatively, one
of the wipe generators of the associated mixing level can be used as a mask generator.
A key/mask store is available, which offers beside storage of key or pattern signals
in conjunction with the wipe generator, a paint mode for generating optional patterns (from DD10).
The effect of the mask on the video signals can be switched over (forced foreground/background) and is invertible.
1.6.4 MATTE GENERATORS, BORDER MATTE GENERATORS
For coloring (fill) characters generated by luminance or linear key, and the
associated borders, a matte generator and a border matte generator are provided
for each keyer.
Beside unicolored mattes, the matte generator allows extremely soft color floating
effects (softness 20-80 %) between two optional colors or black or white in H or V
direction or diagonally. Position and angle of the diagonals can be varied in steps.
Page 25
1. General Diamond digital
16
1.6.5 BORDERLINERS
For bordering caption signals generated by chroma luminance or linear key, a borderliner is realized for each keyer. Two borderliners at maximum for DD10.
As a standard feature, the following border types are provided:
• H, 2H border
• OUTLINE H, 2H
• DROPSHADOW H, 2H, 3H, 4H
• SLANTED SHADOW H, 2H, 3H, 4H
positionable in steps over or under the caption.
As a fill signal for the border, a border matte generator is available.
The border can be switched into the video signal (CUT), transparency (OPACITY)
is adjustable.
The key/mask store option enables switcher DD20 and DD30 to generate a freely
positionable shadow whose transparency can be adjusted.

1.7 SPECIAL EFFECTS GENERATORS
1.7.1 WIPE GENERATORS
As a standard feature, a wipe generator is available in each mixing level (preset/
program stage as an option), which can be freely assigned to background transition
(BGND) and/or to one or both keyers.
The wipe generator supplies the signal for transition (PATTERN) and a border signal (BORDER). As additional application, the signal of the wipe generator can
serve as a key source (PATTERN KEY) or can be used for modulating the floating
of a matte of a central matte generator.
Optionally, each mixing level can be extended by a second wipe generator freely
assignable to the keyers.
The wipe pattern can be switched (WIPE) into the video signal, the pattern size is
adjusted with the fader or by automatic transition (AUTO). The transparency of t h e
signal can be adjusted.
The border can be switched into the video signal (CUT), the transparency is adjustable.
In addition, the wipe generator generates a signal which can control color floating
in the border.
As wipes, the following patterns are available:
• Rolling wipes (horizontal, vertical cut)
• Geometric patterns (square, circle)
• Rotary wipes
• Fan/wiper effects (fan blade, clock wipes)
• Combination transitions (square + clock)
• Matrix wipes (mosaic)
• Matrix combination transitions (corner cut + mosaic)
For the basic functions, a series of possible variations is available, such as alteration of the aspect ratio (RATIO), rotation of the wipe (ROTATION) and multiplication of the wipe (MULTI).
The wipe edges can be varied via an adjustable softness and additionally be modulated with defined functions (e.g. sine) in H and V direction.
A wipe pattern positioning at any place by means of a trackball or a mouse is possible if appropriate patterns are available.
1.7.2 FRAME STORE
As an option (from DD20), the switcher can be extended by a frame store which can
process video and key signals separately. For storage, all those signals are available which can also be selected at the AUX outputs. The outputs of the frame store
are available as primary inputs.
The following manipulations are possible in the frame store:
• Variation of the position H and/or V
• NAM
• ADD

5. CONNECTION AND STARTUP
5.1 CONNECTING POWER AND EARTH LINES
The units of the switcher family Diamond digital have been completely checked in
the factory and are in conformity with the safety regulation EN60950 (VDE0805)
when leaving the factory.
The respective switcher electronics (E-box) is located in a 19-inch case, suitable
for being installed in a DIN or 19-inch cabinet.
When mounting into a cabinet, care should be taken to allow for adequate horizontal air circulation. The maximum ambient temperature must not exceed +40 °C during operation.
PERMANENT EARTH CONNECTION
Due to their high leakage currents (>3.5 mA), the electronics boxes DD20 and
DD30 must be permanently connected with the earth terminal of the equipment
cabinet. For this purpose, the connector panel is provided with a separate earth
cable (green/yellow , 4 mm2) with a length of 2.80 m.
Make the earth connections always before applying mains power!
For this purpose, the connector panel also carries the following warning note:

EARTH
ESSENTIAL BEFORE
CONNECTING SUPPLY

HIGH LEAKAGE CURRENT
POWER CONNECTION
Prior to connecting the switcher components to the line voltage make sure that the
power supplies of control panel and electronics box are adjusted to the corresponding primary voltage. The factory-adjusted voltage is indicated on the respective
connector panel (E-box, control panel) were also the type label is fastened.
Note for installing DD20 and DD30:
When operating within the line voltage range of 115V, mains-caused undervoltages may effect an increased current consumption and as a consequence an activation of the preceding fuses!
For this reason, the electronics boxes of the mixers DD20 and DD30 must be
only operated at a line voltage of 230V. When leaving the factory, the power
supply units are adjusted to the respective voltage and marked accordingly .
For switching over to another line voltage, see the corresponding section in this
manual.
In order to be able to make quickly deadly the mixer in the case of malfunction, the mains cabling of the mixer must be interruptable and at any time accessible.

EARTHING REQUIREMENTS
The Diamond digital switcher family is provided with two separate screw terminals
for protective and video earth, located at the rear, which are short-circuited by a
jumper when being delivered. The PE terminal (protective earth) is internally connected with the PE contact of the power cable.
The following earthing methods are possible:
1. Connect the central ground wires of the studio to the terminal screw PE. The
jumper between the terminal screws PE and TE must not be broken. The cross
section of the protective wire should be greater than that of the neutral wire N
of the power cable, however, should be 2.5 mm2 at least (in accordance with
VDE 0800/part 2, table 1). In case of need, e.g. in studios with separate protective and technical earth systems, the jumper can be broken. In this case, the
central functional earth potential (video earth) has to be additionally applied to
the TE terminal screw. This earth potential should have functional protective
and noiseless earth qualities (FPE) as stated in VDE regulation 0800/part 2.
Cross-section as above mentioned. A low impedance interconnection of both
earth conductors must be provided at the central studio earthing point or at the
earth bus.
2. In case of non-stationary application, earthing is ensured by the leading protec-
tive earth contact of the AC power connector. The power cable, however, must
be plugged into a wall socket whose PE contact is connected to protective earth
potential. The effect of the protective earth connection must not be cancelled
through the use of an extension cable without protective earth conductor nor
must its function be disabled in any other way!
The jumper across the PE and TE terminals must not be broken. When the
jumper is broken, the central functional earth (see item 1) has to be connected
to the TE terminal screw. This earth connection must be made before connecting the AC power cable.
In case of TN-C power systems (without protective earth and with neutral earthing for protection purpose), it is necessary to observe VDE 0100 T.410
(IEC 364-4-41, IEC 364-4-47), VDE 0100 T.540 (IEC 364-5-54) or the applicable national regulations.
Any disconnection or break of the protective earth conductor inside or outside the
unit may entail that, in the event of a failure, the operational safety of the unit will
no longer be ensured.
Any disconnection, demounting or break of the protective earth conductor
inside or outside the unit may entail that, in the event of a failure, the operational safety of the unit will no longer be ensured.
FUSES
Caution
Double-pole or neutral fusing. After operation of the protective device, parts
of the equipment that remain under voltage might represent a hazard during
servicing.

5.2 CHANGING THE SUPPLY VOLTAGE
The power supplies of the different control panel types and the associated electronics frames are designed for the supply voltage ranges of
1 15V AC +15/–20% and 230V AC +15/–20%
When leaving the factory, the power supplies are normally adjusted to operate on
230V. The factory-adjusted voltage is indicated on the connector panel of the unit.
Should it be required to operate with another supply voltage, modify all power supplies in the respective control panel and associated E-box.
The modification has to be carried out from a qualfied service personal.

5.7 CONNECTING AN MENU MONITOR
5.7.1 EGA MONITOR WITH PANEL CONTROLLER RY1821
For supporting the operational and servicing possibilities, an EGA monitor can be
connected to the control panel of the switcher types DD5 and DD10. The switcher
types DD20 and DD30 are not provided with this connection facility .
BTS recommends to connect an EGA monitor available at the market for personal
computer with TTL input.
The following type have been tested:
• EIZO Flexscan 9060s
Monitor type The interface at the control panel emulates the PC EGA standard. The following
data have to be concidered:
Resolution: 640 x 350
Picture frequency: 60 Hz
Line frequency: 21.80 kHz
Pixel clock: 16.00 MHz (PC: 16.26 MHz)
Colors: 64
Input: TTL
Of the 350 possible lines, only 200 are utilized on the monitor. This corresponds
to the display aspect ratio of the switcher types DD20 and DD30. The remainder
of the picture becomes black.
Connection The monitor has to be connected to the Monitor socket J4 on the connector panel
of the control desk.
Color adjustment Color display on the monitor can be varied and consequently matched to the visual
impression of the operator. Color adjustment can be made with the 8-step DIP
switch T4 on the control panel controller RY 1821.

The switches 1...4 select one of 16 possible foreground colors, the switches 5...8
one of 16 possible background colors. The colors have been selected in such a way
that adjustment with identical foreground and background colors is not possible.
The cursor is always displayed in white.

5.7.2 CONTROL PANEL CONTROLLER RY1822 WITH VGA INTERFACE
The RY1821 control panel controller has been modified and now features a VGA
(video graphics adapter) interface. The VGA interface replaces the EGA interface
and serves for the connection of VGA monitors as external menu monitors for
switchers of the DD5 and DD10 type.
The modified controller is designated RY1822 and can be ordered under no.
0351 692 300. Its other functions correspond to that of the RY1821 controller .
The following description contains amendments of the Planning and Installa-
tion manual. The sections

tial installation described in this manual. It is recommended to install the devices with the aid of the instructions below.
Please note that the line voltage is only applied when you are expressively
requested in the checklist to do so.
• After having thoroughly unpacked the equipment and checked the packings for
mains cables and other small parts, check the delivery with regard to damages
caused by transport. If you note a damage, immediately inform the forwarding
agent.
Using the packing slip make sure that the delivery is complete.
• Before starting installation, read the enlosed installation instructions and be-
come familiar with the safety instructions.
• Mount the control panel into a desk.
• Mount the electronics box into an equipment cabinet.
• Check the plug-in cards in the E-box with regard to correct position in the sup-
port frame and make sure that the plug-in cards are locked.
• Set the switches and jumpers to the required operating position.

6.2 POWERUP OF THE SWITCHER
Note The switchers are not provided with a central power switch. Switching on
and off is made via the central mains distribution of the studio or the equipment cabinet!
For service works, the switcher control panel contains on the power supply
board of the E-box one switch each for switching the line voltage.
Switching on After having switched on the line voltage, a self-test is carried out in the electronics
box and control panel controller.
The correct functioning of controller RY 1917 is indicated by a running light in the
two LED rows.
Functiong of the power supply is indicated by the ”green” LEDs. For each main line
of the voltage distribution in the support frame, a separate LED is available.
If one of the status LEDs lights ”red”, the switch for the VCO adjustment is not in
the OPERATE position. If the LED rows of the controller indicate a defined error
code, please see the section ”Diagnosis” in the service manual.
In the control panel, all key lamps are lit temporarily. Subsequently, the control
panel returns to the operational state achieved before switching out.
No Reference If the LED ”No Reference” on the plug-in cards RY 1911, RY 1912 and RY 1914
is lit red, make sure that the switcher receives an external reference signal and
press the RESET key.
The status LEDs are switched off when switching on or performing a RESET. After
run of a diagnosis, the LEDs are lit to indicate correctly operating p.c. boards.

Key TEST/MONITOR If this key is pressed when releasing the reset key, the microcomputer
does not enter the normal operating program but the so-called ”Monitor” mode.
This is a minimal system which is operative in the EPROMs. For the
duration the microcomputer is in the monitor mode, the red Error LED
will flash.
This mode is intended for BTS-internal use only .
DIL switch SETUP Switch T8 for adjustment of device type and configuration. The re-
spective switch position is only inquired after a reset, i.e. a change of
the switch position becomes only effective after a reset.
The switch position can also be inquired at the service terminal with

At the beginning of the test, all used LEDs are lit. After having passed
the test, the associated LED is switched off. Switching-off is made
from the left to the right. This, however, is hardly perceptible when
powering up, since the tests – except for the RAM and EPROM
checks – are very fast.
If a certain test failed, the LED G18, stays lighted. An exception is the
lowest LED which indicates during normal operation the error ”NO
CHEAPERNET COMMUNICATION” in addition to the running light.
When all tests have been passed, a kind of running light appears on
the LED row. This shows immediately whether the controller operates
in the normal mode.
The running light is operated by the microcomputer only if it is not occupied with something more important.
Thus, the speed of the running light allows a qualitative judgement of the the computer activity.

At the beginning of the test, all used LEDs are lit. After having passed
the test, the associated LED is switched off. Switching-off is made
from the left to the right. This, however, is hardly perceptible when
powering up, since the tests – except for the RAM and EPROM
checks – are very fast.
If a certain test failed, the LED stays lighted. An exception is the lowest
LED which indicates during normal operation the error ”NO CHEAPERNET COMMUNICATION” in addition to the running light.
When all tests have been passed, a kind of running light appears on
the LED row. This shows immediately whether the controller operates
in the normal mode.
The running light is operated by the microcomputer only if it is not occupied with something more important.
Thus, the speed of the running light allows a qualitative judgement of the the computer activity.

GPI Configuration The sliding switches T47, T48, T49, T56, T57, T58, T67 and T68 on the p.c. boards
RY 1601 and RY 1917 are assigned to the GPI inputs 1...8 (general-purpose inputs). These inputs are provided with optocouplers. The switches enable to match
the inputs to different control concepts:
Switch in position”1” (position ”left”)
A simple connection between the two connectors activates the corresponding input. This kind of control is suitable for a connection to a relay contact or to an opencollector output.
Attention: In this case, both lines are connected with the circuit ground. When
connecting to an open-collector output, there is no ground potential
isolation between the switcher electronics and controlling devices.
Since the circuit ground is led out of the device, the cabling has to be shielded for
this kind of control. Non-shielded cables may cause EMC and/or ESD problems!
Switch in position ”2” (position ”right”)
The optocoupler-internal LED is made available at the two connectors (including
1kOhm drop resistor). For this kind of control, a ground potential isolation is provided; the controlling device, however , has to impress a current upon the LED, i.e.
a simple contact is not suited in this case.
Due to the ground potential isolation, the cabling is less critical for this kind of control.

6.10.3 FADER CONNECTOR PANEL RC 1855
The faders in the control panels are each provided with connector panel RC 1855
which establishes the connection to controller RY 1821. A 4-step DIP switch (T1)
on the connector panel determines the input channel of the 12-bit A/D converter.
On each of these connector panels, exactly one switch has to be set to ON,
the other switches have to be switched off!
Assignment is as follows::
Switch no. 1 : ME1
2 : ME2
3 : PP
4 : EXTRA
The faders in the control panels DD5 and DD10 have to be configurated for ”ME1”.
The three faders in the DD20 control panel have to be configurated for ”ME1”, ”
PP”and ”EXTRA”

6.10.4 TIMING / GENLOCK ALIGNMENT
When source signals are fed into the switcher, it must be ensured that the time difference between the sources is not outside the operating range of the internal
switcher autophasers (DD5/DD10 = 52 µs, DD20/DD30 = 32 µs). The output signals of the sources must correspond to the timing customary in operation. For
instance, no EE picture in a VTR, PB-Ref on CCVS etc.
The switcher’s Genlock Phase can be adjusted to the fed reference signal in the
range of –1 line to + 2 lines.
Note: During Genlock Phase adjustment Key Memory should be disabled
to avoid a change-over of the key mode in the selection of the sources.
For the Genlock Phase adjustment proceed as follows:
1. DD5/DD10: Switch Keyer1 (or Keyer2) to Luminance Key.
Select key bus for key fill and key source.
DD20/DD30: Switch Keyer1 or Keyer2 of ME1 to Luminance Key.
Select key bus for key fill and key source.
2. Select first source on key bus.
3. Select menu option Genlock Phase in the SETUP menu.
4. Set Genlock Phase of the switcher to ”0” in the Setup and then increase until the
red/green signal (asynchronous) of the selected key bus stops flashing. Maintain and observe the adjusted status for a short time to make sure that no running-in occurs.
Then increase the value slightly to provide for a safe margin to the critical threshold.
5. Switch through all applied sources on the key bus in the same way and verify.
Determine the highest value of the Genlock Phase adjustment and maintain this
value as final setup setting.

6.10.5 GENLOCK ADJUSTMENT WITH MENU
From software version ”G”, the mixers include the possibility to perform the genlock
adjustment of the individual input sources in Installation menu Config E-Box.
When adjusting the genlock phase, all sources have to be successively checked
for their timing by switching up on the bus Video store.
To adjust the genlock phase, select the softkey Config E-Box in the Install menu.
The following display is represented:
With controller Genlock, the phase relation of the mixer can be shifted by –1 line
up to +2 lines in comparison with the genlock reference signal.
The display TIMING serves for checking the timing of the sources.
The bar diagram arranged horizontally under the TIMING field displays the timing
of the source to the mixer that is selected on bus Video store.
The display can give the following informations:
No input signal in the
selected input.
Input signal does not lie in
area of the auto phasers.
Input signal IN03 lies 17.7 µs before the earliest mixer input.
Page 94
6. Initial InstallationDiamond digital
85
The header line TIMING displays the source selected on bus Video store with the
defined source name with the current status (e.g. IN03: no signal).
The bar diagram under the header line displays the timing of the sources in the area
of the auto phaser. Both arrows mark the area in which the phase relation of the
sources can correctly be set for all mixer buses. In the correct timing range, the
bar is light. A dark bar indicates that the source does not lie in the valid area. This
can also happen when the display is between the arrows!
Attention:
At DD5 and DD10, the mode of representation of the menu monitor can be
changed (e.g. to inverse representation) by means of switch T4 on the control panel controller. Thus the bar colors and also all other softkeys can be
displayed in the menu in an inverted way.
The right arrow marks the earliest mixer input (latest timing of the sources). The
left arrow marks the earliest timing of the sources.
When adjusting the genlock phase, switching procedures in the genlock effect
again a running in of the H phase. This is indicated in the bar diagram as bounces.
In this case, the run-in procedure has to be waited for.

6.11 DIAMOND DIGITAL – SOFTWARE UPDATE
The enclosed two 3.5-inch disks contains files with the latest software (*.LOC) for
the individual processors in the switcher and some utility files for the installation
procedure.
The files are:
Disk 1: INSTALL.EXE – Software for loading the updates
MSKERMIT.EXE – Terminal emulation program
MSKERMIT.INI – Configuration file for MSKERMIT
Disk 2: Fxxxxx.LOC – Software for control panel controller
Sxxxxx.LOC – Software for slave controller E-box
Mxxxxx.LOC – Software for master controller E-box
README.TXT – Software information
Copy all files into a subdirectory on the harddisc because INSTALL.EXE creates
temporary files.
E.g. COPY A:*.* C:\DS0011\REL_G
or COPY B:*.* C:\DS0011\REL_G
Please read first the software information before starting the software update. It
might be possible that you are requested to make a backup of the RAM files, using
the Disk menu in order to avoid data loss of your own presettings.
