OUTING
The AAB6214 analog DA module is not equipped for mid-plane routing functions. When determining
in which frame slot to install the module, you should consider whether or not internal signal routing
capabilities of the frame are to be used for signal input or output sharing by other modules installed in
the frame. For further information on planning an Integrity 600 Series system using internal routing
capability, refer to the Technical Manual for the FRM603 frame, QuStream Publication 81-9059-0622-0.
There are no restrictions on placing modules in the FRM603 frame – any module will function stand-
alone in any slot. However, if you are intending to incorporate internal frame routing, adjacent module
signal sharing or Star Slot routing, you should have the system pre-planned prior to module installation.
QuStream recommends that you make a detailed drawing of your system and follow it when loading
modules into the frame. The following guidelines will help you in your system planning, but they are
not intended to be an all-inclusive, step-by-step guide.
•
Make a listing of the modules you will use in your system, and determine the internal routing
capability of each module. Not all 600 Series modules share the same capabilities: for example
some of the 600 Series dual input distribution amplifiers are actually two independent
amplifiers; one of which can receive input signals from the module LEFT adjacent to it, or the
Star Slot A routing bus, and the other can receive input signals from the module RIGHT adjacent
to it, or the Star Slot B routing bus.
•
Not all modules are equipped for internal signal routing. If you are going to use internal routing
in your layout, it would not be advisable to install modules without such capability in a Start
Slot or in a frame slot you may need for signal sharing.
•
Consider placement of modules you intend to share signals first. Include in your sketch which
module will receive a signal from an external source, how you want signals distributed to other
modules and with which module the internal routing will terminate.

NSTALLATION
Every Integrity 600 Series processing module consists of a rear connector panel and the main circuit
card. These two items are shipped as a set, but must be installed individually into the FRM603 chassis
frame. The AAB6214 rear connector panel occupies one card slot in the FRM603, and may be installed
in any available slot in the chassis frame. Proper installation requires that the rear connector panel be
installed before the circuit board. Observe the following precautions before proceeding with
installation:
