2. INSTALLATION
2.1 UNPACKING
Carefully unpack the unit from its transit material and check the unit for signs of damage. Check the
contents of the box against our despatch note and your original order to ensure that you have
received the correct parts.
In the event that the unit has been damaged or does not match your order, immediately contact
your supplier or Trilogy at the address given at the front of this guide.
2.2 RACK MOUNTING
The 1U rack frame has integral 19" mounting ears for direct mounting in a standard 19" rack.
Carefully place the unit in your rack and firmly attach it to the rack using four bolts.
IMPORTANT: Mentor CX has air intakes on the front of the chassis and fan assisted exhaust vents on
the rear of the chassis. Ensure that these have an unobstructed air flow, otherwise the unit may
overheat. Pay particular attention to ensure that any rack wiring or cable trays do not obstruct the
vent. 60mm of clear space should be allowed between the vents and any potential obstruction.
2.3 EARTHING REQUIREMENTS
The unit is provided with a single 4mm earthing stud on the rear panel. Incoming mains earth from
the IEC connector is internally bonded to both the chassis and technical 0V to meet safety
requirements and performance specifications. The stud allows the addition of an earth strap, if
required, in rack installations.

2.7 CHANNEL INPUT AND OUTPUT
Mentor CX uses the ‘Micro BNC’ connector type, which is interchangeable with the Amphenol ‘HD
BNC’ range. Connector performance exceeds the requirements of SMPTE ST 2082-1 making them
suitable for composite and component video, 270 Mb/s SDI, uncompressed 1080i or 1080p HD-SDI
video and 4K UHD (2160P60) video up to 12GHz.The Micro BNC series is used to achieve a very high
density of connections on equipment rear panels and thus requires the use of a dedicated slim-line
fitting and removal tool to mate and un-mate the connector. Trilogy offers a short interconnect
cable for Mentor RG outputs to Mentor CX channel inputs – please contact your usual sales channel
for more information.
2.8 AES AND LTC IN FROM SPG A AND B

2.10 FAULT LOOP
Mentor CX has a fault loop output indicating a combined general system failure when open. The
output is presented on the AES output connector as shown above. Electrically, the opto-isolated
output is identical to the GPI Outputs described in section 2.11.
A fault condition on one or more of the items listed causes the Mentor CX fault loop to open.
• Mentor CX Fan 1
• Mentor CX Fan 2
• Mentor CX PSU 1
• Mentor CX PSU 2
• Fault loop primary Mentor RG (SPG A)
• Fault loop secondary Mentor RG (SPG B)
Overall fault status from each associated Mentor RG is connected to the LTC input connectors on
Mentor CX to provide an overall fault loop for the entire reference system.

GPI Outputs 1 and 2
Output 1 indicates which set of inputs are routed to the output. When open, “A” inputs are routed,
when closed “B” inputs are routed. GPI Output 1 is a latching mechanical relay and retains its setting
when power is removed from the unit.
Output 2 indicates if the A&B input sets signals differ or if there is a PSU failure. When open, inputs
A&B differ or a PSU failure has been detected: when closed A&B have equivalent signals and PSUs
are OK. PSU failure occurs when the PSU is detected as present but PSU DC voltage output is not OK
or PSU fan is not OK. GPI Output 2 is an opto-isolated, floating type.
Connecting to GPI Output 2
2.12 ETHERNET
The Mentor CX is equipped with a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet port. This port may be configured for
either dynamic (DHCP) address mode, or static address mode. In most instances, we recommend the
static mode. These options are located in the Admin menu. The Mentor CX should be connected to
the network in the same way as any other networked device (e.g. computer or laptop) using a 1:1
CAT 5 RJ45 cable (not provided).
If connected directly to a computer or laptop for initial configuration, either a crossover or straight
through style Ethernet cable may be used.

To use an output, a load should be
connected between the output and
an external power supply, with the
negative end of the power supply
connected back to the ground pin on
the D type. As an alternative to an
external power supply, a +12V, 500
mA feed is available on pin 5 of the
D9 connector.

3. OPERATION
3.1 INTRODUCTION
There are three basic principles which are key to operation of the Mentor CX.
1. An error or fault condition on a single channel causes, without exception, a total
changeover from the primary to secondary reference generator. Channels may be included
or excluded from the decision making using front panel controls or Vector management.
This allows the “faulty” generator to be isolated and removed from service for repair or
replacement without causing any further disturbance to the transmission.
2. The logic underpinning automatic changeover is fundamentally “one time only”. So, if an
error occurs, Mentor CX will switch from primary to secondary generator. A further switch
back to primary will not occur without manual intervention. This is to eliminate the
possibility of repeated back and fore switching which would be very disruptive. The most
common occurrence of this is a missing termination downstream of Mentor CX. This will
cause an “over amplitude” error and thus a changeover. However, in this case, the fault will
now be flagged on the reserve generator which will also display an error. The “one time
only” approach means that the reserve generator will now remain in service until the
problem is resolved and the Mentor CX is manually reset.
3. Changeover will only take place if the alternate generator is operating correctly. This means
that there are no errors and that the input signals are the same type.
A limited amount of information and key aspects of control are presented at the front panel and
these are described first. More complete operation and system setup are provided by Vector
management and this is described in section 4 - Using Vector | Web Browser Based Management.

4. USING VECTOR | WEB BROWSER BASED MANAGEMENT
4.1 INTRODUCTION
Vector, a web browser based configuration tool provides:
• Greatly simplified initial setup
• Online editing of Mentor CX configurations
• Visibility of your entire Trilogy Mentor reference system
• Partial or incremental updates without causing disruption (where possible)
• The ability to copy, backup and restore configuration data
4.2 GETTING STARTED
To start using Vector, follow these simple steps to set the Mentor CX IP address:
• Power up the Mentor CX while holding down the “Fault Reset” button on the front panel.
The IP address will return to factory default of 192.168.1.252.
• Connect the Ethernet port on the Mentor CX to a laptop, using a standard RJ-45 cable (not
supplied). Give the laptop a temporary IP address within the same subnet (e.g.192.168.1.20).
• Open your web browser and Navigate to the address http://192.168.1.252.
• Select Admin from the top menu and at the log-in screen, enter the default username admin
and password trilogy. The System Settings page will then be displayed.
• As a minimum, enter values for Default IP and Subnet Mask which are appropriate for your
in-house network. A Gateway address will be required if you intend to access the Mentor CX
across a wider network. Use of DHCP is not normally advised for technical equipment.
• A change of Default IP address will mean that you lose contact from the laptop. Once the
change has taken place you can disconnect the laptop and connect Mentor CX to your LAN.
• Log in again from a PC connected to your LAN.

4.5.1 Vector | Setup | Channels
This screen allows channels to be included in or excluded from the
changeover decision making process.
Channel setup:
• Select which channels will be included in the changeover decision
making process
• A fail condition on any of the channels included in the changeover
decision making will cause the unit to changeover to the alternate
SPG
• If channels are not included in the decision making process, the
status of the inputs will not be monitored

Mentor CX
4.5.2 Vector | Setup | A/B Sync
The Mentor CX monitors the
status of linked Mentor RGs to
see if they are locked using
one of the approved
synchronisation method(s)
e.g. GPS, PTP, NTP etc. The list
of approved synchronisation
methods is configured on this
screen. The status of each
Mentor RG is monitored via
the network and reported
accordingly.
The following will cause a sync fail condition:
• The Mentor RG reports a synchronisation method not
approved in the configured list.
The following causes a sync warning :
• Both Mentor RG report a synchronisation method from
the approved configured list, but the synchronisation
methods differ.
The Mentor RG synchronisation methods are:
• GPS
• PTP (slave)
• NTP
• LTC
• VITC
• Internal oscillator
• External clock; and
• Genlock
The settings section is there to ensure we don’t get a period of
changeover when there are network stability issues.

4.7 VECTOR | ADMIN
The Admin menu comprises five branches, as shown in the first image below.
4.7.1 Vector | Admin | System Settings
The Admin | System Settings page allows the Mentor CX IP address to be set correctly, to match
local network requirements. Although DHCP is supported, it is not normally appropriate in a
technical environment such as a broadcast studio.
The minimum values required for correct operation are Default IP and Subnet Mask. These values
alone will allow the Mentor CX to be accessed by an admin PC located on the same subnet. If you
plan to access the Mentor CX from a different subnet then a Gateway address must be entered.
Factory default IP address is 192.168.1.252 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
Each Mentor CX Changeover is normally connected to a pair of Mentor RG Reference Generators.
If the IP addresses of these linked reference generators are entered, the main status page will
display an overview of the status of the entire system. In depth status reporting and setup of the
Mentor RG is available by browsing directly to each unit.
4.7.2 Vector | Admin | SNMP Settings
Check the box to enable
SNMP notifications. A
maximum of three SNMP
managers may be added.

5. MAIN CONTROLLER BOARD
5.1 INTRODUCTION
In addition to providing overall control of the Mentor CX, the main controller board carries the
following channels which constitute the “base” unit:
• 2 x SDI - channels 1 - 2
• 4 x Analogue - channels 3 - 6
• 2 x AES (balanced via D-type connectors)
• 2 x LTC (balanced via D-type connectors)
The features of each channel type are described below.
5.1.1 SDI Channels (1 - 2)
The inputs monitor SDI – SD/HD/3G signals, but do not detect or report the format/standard.
The following error causes a failure condition:
• Signal level approx. <500 mV.
5.1.2 Analogue Channels (3 – 6)
There are 4 analogue channels which can monitor and switch the following signal types:
• Black and burst (BB)
• Tri-Level-Sync (TLS)
• AES/DARS (unbalanced via BNC)
• Word clock, 10 MHz, 27 MHz
Black and burst (BB)
Mentor CX monitors PAL and NTSC BB and reports the detected standard.
• Signal amplitude <180 mV causes a failure condition
• Signal amplitude <210 mV (double terminated) or >500 mV (un-terminated) causes a
warning condition.
Tri-Level Sync (TLS)
The following 22 standards are monitored, detected and reported (see exceptions listed).
