1 Product overview

The Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router is part of the VikinX Modular product range,
offering up to 128x128 cross points. This top of the line router provides a very compact
frame, fully hot-swappable architecture, built-in dual redundant power supply and fully
redundant controller functions.

Starting with the size of 64x64 digital audio cross-points, the router can be expanded under
operation with 64x64 increments. Advanced control features like TCP/IP interface and SNMP
agent, as well as comprehensive surveillance of the router’s vital parameters are possible via
the well known GYDA-VX System Monitor.

As for our well known VikinX compact router series low power consumption has been
important.

VikinX Modular provides a fully hot-swappable architecture, meaning that all components
are front loaded without any active components on the rear panel.

VikinX Modular provides all important 3rd party control interfaces allowing the control of our
routers through 3rd party management software. On top of that does the Network
Electronics’ THOR management package allow control of the most common 3rd party
routers. This enables you to utilise existing routers and management systems from other
manufacturers and still draw the advantages of implementing VikinX Modular in your
routing application.

3 Modules inside the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router

In order to get an overview of the parts that form the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router
this chapter will highlight some of the main components.

GYDA-VX (not shown in picture) SysCon Power Supplies X-point Modules

Figure 2

3.1 How to access the modules

All active modules are accessible through the front of the router frame. If service or
inspection is required, open the unit from the front. The door may be removed for easy
access to the modules.

An important feature of all the modules in the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router frame
is that they are all hot-swappable. The user does not have to turn off the power in order to
remove/reinstall/replace a module with active components inside the Modular AES/EBU
Digital Audio Router.

3.2 How to configure the router and modules

Setting up and configuring the router and its modules is done with the System Configurator
software. The System Configurator is shipped with the router, or could be downloaded from

http://www.network-electronics.com.

For further instructions on router configuration, please see the online documentation in the
System Configurator.

3.3 Power Supply module

Each Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router frame comes with either one or two power
supply modules. One power supply is standard, dual redundant power supply is an option.

The first power supply module is inserted in the left slot (A), and the second is inserted in the
right slot (B). (The power module A is pulled out in the figure below).

network-electronics.com | 9

AD6464M / AD128128M Rev. 5

Figure 3

3.3.1 Module insertion

In order to insert a power supply module one must insert the module via the special plastic
guide rails into its position. Once the module is inserted, fix the module by lifting up the
handle on the front and pushing it to the upright position.

3.3.2 Module removal

In order to remove a power supply module, one must pull down the handle on the front
downwards to a horizontal position, and pull the module out with the bar on top of the
power module.

3.3.3 How to connect power to the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio Router

There are two power connectors on the back of the frame. These connectors are for AC
mains connection.

Use an IEC 320 connector to connect AC mains to the Modular AES/EBU Digital Audio
Router frame.

Note: There is a switch on the right hand side of the power supply module that
selects mains voltage. The mains voltage can be either 110VAC or 230VAC. This
switch must be set in the correct position, depending on the mains voltage on
the router’s site.

Failing to select correct AC mains voltage properly may damage the Power
Supply Unit.

If the frame is equipped with a single power supply module, only one AC mains connection
is used. However, if the frame is equipped with dual, redundant power supply modules, both
AC mains connectors must be used, preferably from two different mains circuits.

3.3.4 Status LEDs and Relay contacts

There are 2 LEDs on the front of each power supply module, and they indicate the following:

− The upper, RED LED should be normally OFF. If it is ON, there is a power supply

failure, indicating that the power supply module must be replaced.

− The lower, GREEN LED must be ON when mains power is connected. If this LED is

OFF, it means that there is no mains power supplying the frame.

There are also two Power fail alarm relay contacts on the rear side of the frame; see Chapter
1 for details. Each installed PSU module has a separate pair of contacts. The relay contact is
normally open, and the contact closes on power failure.

network-electronics.com | 10

AD6464M / AD128128M Rev. 5

− The PSU module A alarm is formed by contact between Pin 3 and Pin 6 (Green pair)

− The PSU module B alarm is formed by contact between Pin 1 and Pin 2 (Orange pair)

Figure 4

3.4 System Controller – SysCon

Each VikinX.128 frame comes with either one or two system controller cards, SysCon. One
SysCon is necessary to control the router; dual redundant SysCon is an option.

SysCon can be enabled for 3rd party control interfaces. Please contact your Network
representative for details.

Your SysCon card(s) may be inserted in any of the two slots (A) and (B).

All the configuration parameters, control parameters, etc. are stored in the Compact Flash
(CF) memory of the SysCon card. This provides a high grade of security for the user, as he
just needs to remove the CF card if the SysCon card fails, and install this CF card on a new
SysCon card. The router will not notice the difference.

Figure 5

3.4.1 Card insertion

The frame is equipped with plastic guide rails to align the SysCon cards into their respective
positions. Slide the card into the plastic guide rails inside the frame until the red handle is
close to the frame front. A detailed description of the last part of the insertion process is
shown in the figure below.

network-electronics.com | 11

AD6464M / AD128128M Rev. 5

Figure 6

On the top of the card tray, there is a hole above each module slot. When the tip of the
handle is just below this hole, start to push the handle downwards as in the figure. The tip of
the handle enters the hole and the card is locked and proper contact ensured when the
handle is in downright position.

Do not use excessive force; the card should enter easily – proper insertion is
almost effortless.

3.4.2 Card removal

To remove a module card from the sub-rack frame, release the card by moving the red
handle until it is in horizontal position, as shown in the figure below. Then pull the card out
of the sub-rack with the red handle.

Figure 7

3.4.3 Status LEDs and Reset button

The reset button on the rear side is used to perform a hard reset of the card. Do not perform
a hard reset, unless the situation demands this. By performing a hard reset, the user looses
control of the router, and will not get control of the router until approximately 20 seconds
after releasing the reset button.

3.4.4 CF-card and battery

All the information regarding the router configuration, as well as information regarding
control panels that are connected to the router, is stored in the Compact Flash card on the
SysCon card.

network-electronics.com | 15

AD6464M / AD128128M Rev. 5

3.6.1 Card insertion

To insert an X-point card, slide the module along the plastic guide rails into its position. On
both sides of the card tray there is a hole next to each module slot. Use the two red handles,
which are located on the front of the module to seat the module. When the tip of both
handles is just next to these holes, start to push the handles simultaneously inwards the card.
The tip of the handles enters the hole and the card is locked and proper contact ensured
when you hear a click from both handles.

Note that it may be necessary to press hard when inserting the X-point card(s).
Be sure to press the card(s) firmly into the frame, before locking the handles.

3.6.2 Card removal

To remove an X point card from the frame, release the card by pushing the red knobs on

A.2 Environmentally Friendly Use Period (EFUP)

EFUP is the time the product can be used in normal service life without leaking the
hazardous materials. We expect the normal use environment to be in an equipment room at
controlled temperature range (0ºC 40ºC) with moderate humidity (<90%, non condensing)
and clean air, not subject to vibration or shock.

Where a product contains potentially hazardous materials, this is indicated on the product by
the appropriate symbol containing the EFUP. The hazardous material content is limited to
lead (Pb) in some solders. This is extremely stable in normal use and the EFUP is taken as 50
years, by comparison with the EFUP given for Digital Exchange/Switching Platform in
equipment in Appendix A of “General Rule of Environment-Friendly Use Period of Electronic
Information Products”. This is indicated by the product marking:

50

It is assumed that while the product is in normal use, any batteries associated with real-time
clocks or battery-backed RAM will be replaced at the regular intervals.

The EFUP relates only to the environmental impact of the product in normal use, it does not
imply that the product will continue to be supported for 50 years.
