This does not apply to the three Option ELSW channels, which are buffered. To avoid this problem, work on an output only when the ECO422D is not in operation. Disconnect the output cable from the ECO422D before working on the cable, and verify proper termination before reconnecting the cable to the ECO422D.
These indicators remain on until cleared by the operator. Power Up Delay The ECO422D has a delay between the time power is applied and the time the ECO422D starts error detection. This delay allows source equipment to become operational before detection begins.

Press the Sync Source button to manually change the signal Primary/Backup source. (If the ECO422D is in Normal mode, this is only true when the other input is good or both inputs are bad. (See page 25, User Configuration Switch (S14-8).) Only one of these LEDs can be on.
Rear-Panel Controls and Connectors Rear-Panel Controls and Connectors The following figure shows the rear-panel layout of the ECO422D. (See Figure 2.) Figure 2: ECO422D rear panel Power This instrument is designed to operate from a single-phase power source with one current-carrying conductor at or near earth-ground (the neutral conductor).

The front panel cannot override this remote command. Toggle Sync Source (active low). Operates the same as the Sync Source button on the front panel. A low pulse will cause the ECO422D to toggle between Primary and Backup as the output signal.

17.75 inches to allow clearance for the slide-out tracks. Rack slides conveniently mount in any rack that has a front-to-rear rail spacing between 15.5 and 28 inches. The ECO422D requires six inches of clearance between the instrument rear panel and any rear cabinet panel for connector space and to provide adequate air circulation.

Installation Electrical Installation You can order any of the following power cord options for the ECO422D. If no power cord option is ordered, the instrument is shipped with a North American 125 V power cord. Opt. A0 - North America power Opt.

(See Table 6 on page 23.) Then use the DIP selection guide to make sure that the DIP switches are correctly configured. There is also a reference card available to keep track of how the ECO422D is configured and help in setting up the instrument.
Make sure that any channel not in use has checking disabled. If checking is not disabled, errors will always be generated. No error checking also allows the maximum voltage, current, and frequency to pass through the ECO422D. The gray shading on the illustration of the switches indicates the down position of the rocker switch.

For Normal operation, you cannot switch to a bad signal whether the instrument is in manual or auto switch mode. For example, the ECO422D is in manual mode and the Primary signal is bad, while the Backup signal is good. If you press the Sync Source button, the output will be the Backup signal.
Page 32
Installation Hints on Using the User There are the several different types of signal checking already available but you may need to feed a different signal through the ECO422D. This section gives one Configuration Switches example, active analog video. Active analog video. The ECO422D will pass active analog video by using the no checking mode, but there will be times when you need to check for the presence of an active video signal.
3. When power is first applied, the front panel AUTO SWITCHING DISABLED LED will flash during the power-on delay. 4. When the ECO422D has completed the power-on delay, the SWITCH ON FAULT LED should come on. The length of the power-on delay is user adjustable. Use S13 to adjust the delay in approximately 30 second increments, from zero delay to approximately eight minutes.
Functional Check and First Time Operation Functional Check and First Time Operation This section steps through how the ECO422D will react under its most common operating circumstances: two good signals, loss and then return of the Primary signal, loss and return of the Backup signal, and loss of power. Only two input signals are used here to avoid confusion.
Page 35
Functional Check and First Time Operation 6. Enable the front panel, using the Front Panel button. 7. Set the ECO422D to “Switch on Fault” using front-panel buttons. (This is the default at power on.) 8. If Primary is not already the source, press the Sync Source button to make Primary the source.

4. Clear the fault indicator by pressing the Reset button. 5. Press the Sync Source button to return to Backup sync source. Loss of Power to the 1. Remove the power source from the ECO422D. ECO422D 2. Note that the output signal switches to the Primary input signal.
