Inputs
The connector types alternate on each input connector for maximum flexibility, and the specific
connector types are listed below. For each input, only one connector / signal type can be
selected at a time.
Odd Input Connectors (1, 3, 5, etc.)
•
Analog (3 or 4 wire BNC)
•
Composite / S‐Video (Shares BNC with composite analog sync signal)
•
SDI / HD‐SDI / 3G‐SDI (Single dedicated BNC)
Even Input Connectors (2, 4, 6, etc.)
•
DVI‐I (Analog and Digital on single connector)
•
Stereo Sync input (3‐Pin DIN)
Outputs
Each Output Module has various video connectors on the rear. Multiple output connectors can
be enabled simultaneously, provided that the user defined output format is valid for the
connector. SXGA (1280x1024) for example, is valid for DVI and analog connectors, but is not a
valid format for SDI, composite, or S‐Video connectors.
Each output channel provides the following connector types:
•
DVI‐I (Analog and Digital on single connector)
•
SDI / HD‐SDI / 3G‐SDI
Power
The X20 uses a soft power scheme. Pressing the Standby switch initiates a power up cycle and
after a short boot time the front panel display will indicate operational status. Pressing the
Standby switch again initiates the power down cycle after which the unit enters standby mode.
Holding the power button on the front panel of the system for 13‐15 seconds can be used to
force power off, however this technique may cause permanent configuration data loss.
The user should avoid disconnecting the primary power source (AC input) until the
unit is in standby mode. Failure to do this could result in hard drive data corruption.
