Installation

4. INSTALLATION

4.1. Powering the Device

Rack-mount modules
1. Insert the C-54 E into an Optelecom-NKF MC 10 or MC 11 power supply cabinet.
2. Plug the cabinet power cord into a grounded mains socket.
/SA modules
The stand-alone version (/SA) of the C-54 E requires an external power supply adapter
(12 VDC).
1. Connect the power adapter to the power connector on the metal SA housing.
2. Plug the power adapter into a grounded mains socket.

4.2. Connecting Cables

1. Plug the network cable connecting the module to your 100/10 Mbit IP/Ethernet
network into the RJ-45 Ethernet socket on the front panel (see figure 3.1).
2. Connect the video cables to the video BNC connectors.
3. Connect the data cable (if required) to the mini Combicon connector.
Use appropriate cabling (CAT 5 or CAT 6) for data links.
Through-connecting the signal ground lines of RS-data interfaces is mandatory, as is proper
grounding. Pin assignments are given in section 4.4.

4.3. Startup

After startup, the DC LED will light and the network indicator lights will go through an on/off
sequence. The power DC LED should always be lit; the link and No Video lights will
eventually glow upon establishing a good network link and the absence of an input video
signal, respectively. The sync LED displays as described in table 3.1.
important Before any signal connection can be made, at least a valid IP address (the
module identity for the network) and a subnet mask must be assigned to the
module. Section 5.1 details how this should be done.
