Video Input Expansion; Video Output Expansion - System X Series Matrix X Installation Manual

Video input expansion

Ÿ M3216AX/3208AX: Connect a XLOOP cable from the LOOP MON connector on the
first unit to the neighbouring LOOP MON connector on the unit above or below.
Further units are interconnected in the same way.
Connect cameras 1-32 to the video inputs on first unit, cameras 33-65 to the second
unit a.s.o. Video input terminations should be activated on all units; i.e. set to 75 Ω .
Connect the monitors to the video outputs on one of the units; when three or more
units are used to the unit in the middle for optimum performance.
Ÿ M1608AX: Connect each video output on the first unit with the corresponding
output on the second unit using BNC dual straight "Y"-adaptors. Further units are
interconnected in the same way.
Connect cameras 1-16 to the video inputs on first unit, cameras 17-32 to the second
unit a.s.o. Video input terminations should be activated on all units; i.e. set to 75 Ω .
Connect the monitors to the unused "leg" on the "Y"-adaptors fitted on the first or
last unit.

Video output expansion

Ÿ M3216AX: Connect a XLOOP cable from the LOOP CAM. 1-16 connector on the first
unit to the neighbouring LOOP CAM. 1-16 connector on the next unit.
Furthermore connect a XLOOP cable from the LOOP CAM. 17-32 connector on the
first unit to the neighbouring LOOP CAM. 17-32 connector on the next unit. For
further expansion with more monitor outputs, i.e. more than 32, additional units are
added in the same way.
Connect cameras 1-32 to the video inputs on first unit only, and activate the video
input terminations, i.e. set them to 75 Ω , on the last unit only.
Connect the monitors 1-16 to the video outputs on the first unit and monitors 17-32
to the second unit a.s.o.
Ÿ M3208AX: Connect a XLOOP cable from the LOOP CAM. 1-16 connector on the first
unit to the neighbouring LOOP CAM. 1-16 connector on the next unit.
Furthermore connect a XLOOP cable from the LOOP CAM. 17-32 connector on the
first unit to the neighbouring LOOP CAM. 17-32 connector on the next unit. For
further expansion with more monitor outputs, i.e. more than 16, additional units are
added in the same way.
Connect cameras 1-32 to the video inputs on first unit only, and activate the video
input terminations, i.e. set them to 75 Ω , on the last unit only.
Connect the monitors 1-8 to the video outputs on the first unit and monitors 9-16
to the second unit a.s.o.
Note: M3216AX units and M3208AX units can freely be combined. By combining e.g. a
M3216AX and a M3208AX unit a 24 video output matrix is made.
By combining two M3216AX's and one M3208AX unit a matrix with 40 video outputs is formed.
Ÿ M1608AX: Fit BNC dual straight "Y"-adaptors on the video inputs on the first unit
and connect the cameras to one of the "legs". Connect the other leg to the
corresponding video inputs on the second unit. Further units are interconnected in
the same way.
Activate the video input terminations, i.e. set them to 75 Ω , on the last unit only.
Connect the monitors 1-8 to the video outputs on the first unit, monitors 9-16 to
the second unit a.s.o..
