Page 7: Chapter 1 - Introduction
The growth of 5.1 and 7.1 audio has increased the number of audio channels that must be managed in a production. FS3 accepts embedded SDI audio on all four SDI inputs (two coax and two optional fiber), and has an internal 64x64 audio matrix that allows routing of all embedded audio channels. -
Page 8: Audio Features
Front Panel Control The FS3 front panel offers the most direct control, ideal for use in machine rooms or wherever quick changes and status checks must be made. The buttons and knobs control menus in the display, allowing you to fully configure the system according to your purposes. -

That Mapped Output Format is recalled if the frame rate selection is changed. Forty different presets are available that can be used to restore the FS3 to a previous state. Many parameters can be individually reset to factory values using individual menus, or the entire FS3 can be reset to defaults (with the PRESET, Factory Preset menu). -
Page 12: Chapter 2 - Controls, Indicators, And Connections
ALARM Alphanumeric Display The FS3’s control system is designed to be quick and easy to use. The four-line alphanumeric display shows menus that are numbered and grouped by function. The menu groups are easily accessed using pushbuttons which correspond one- to-one with the groups (one button per menu group). -

Page 17: Incompatibility Alarms
Alarm Suppress parameters.) Incompatibility Alarms The FS3 produces signal incompatibility alarms for a number of reasons. For example, incompatible conversion alarms can occur because the FS3 cannot convert between frame rate families (59.94/29.97/23.98, or 50/25, or 24). -
Page 18: Rear Panel Description
Using the REMOTE menu group, you can program the actions of the GPI inputs and outputs individually. Contact closures on the inputs can trigger a wide variety of FS3 functions. Alarms or loss of video can trigger the GPI outputs. 10/100/1000 LAN This RJ-45 connector provides an Ethernet 10/100/1000 port for connection directly to a computer or to a LAN through an Ethernet hub or switch. - Page 19 NOTE: For proper operation the input Reference signal must be stable and properly terminated using a 75-ohm terminator on either the unused loop connector or the last piece of downstream equipment to which the Ref Video is connected.

Page 20: Chapter 3 - Installation & Configuration
Chapter 3 – Installation & Configuration Installation Overview The installation and set up of an FS3 is very simple. Plug both AC supply cords into AC mains power (separate branch circuits for redundancy), connect the LAN connector to a LAN, WAN or local computer with a web-browser, and then connect source and destination video and audio equipment. -
Page 21: Unpacking
If you find shipping damage, contact your AJA dealer or distributor for details on how to have your FS3 repaired or replaced. NOTE: Save packing materials and the shipping box. If your FS3 ever requires service or you move your system, use the packaging materials and box for safe shipment. -

FS3 units. Note the location of cooling vents on all equipment next to the FS3 and ensure none are obstructed. NOTE: FS3 units can be stacked vertically without limit as long as there is an adequate supply of cool air around the FS3 vents. -
Page 23: Fs3 Default Network Settings
Networking Using DHCP or Default Static IP The FS3 factory default configuration automatically looks for a DHCP server to issue an IP address. If your network includes a DHCP server, plug the FS3 into the network and connect with the unit as follows: 1. -
Page 24: Networking The Fs3 Using Your Own Static Ip
If the FS3 cannot get an address from the network DHCP server, the FS3 will automatically use a preset factory static IP address of 192.168.0.2. You can access the FS3 using the default static address as follows: 1. Set your computer’s IP address to whatever address you prefer in the 192.168.0 (class C) network. -
Page 25: Using Ping To Test The Network Connection
Using Ping to Test the Network Connection If you have connected the FS3 to a computer and set up the IP address and still do not see the FS3 screens in your browser, you can ping the network to verify the connection. -
Page 26: Web Browser Control
To control the FS3 from a web browser on a network attached computer, enter the FS3 IP address as a URL in the browser. For example, if the FS3 IP address were “90.0.6.31”, you would then type into the web browser: http://90.0.6.31. This topic is explained in greater detail in Chapter 5: Browser Remote Control. -

Page 41: Subnet Mask
Without a properly configured default gateway (whether you have a router/ gateway or not), the FS3 will be unable to see other FS units on the network, although you may still be able to control this unit via a web browser. Also, without a proper gateway defined, the discovery feature on the Network web page will fail to list other FS units on the network. -
Page 42: Video Format Alarm
Alarm will not be triggered by a format incompatibility. 7 Reference Alarm This parameter controls how the FS3 responds when the Video Processors has a format that is incompatible with the Reference video signal. When set to NORMAL, the alarm triggers if the Reference signal is not detected or is incompatible with the processor format. -

No embedded audio (HANC) is generated. About Audio Routing The SDI1 through SDI4 Audio Output menu titles refer to portions of the FS3 SDI embedded audio output signal (embedded audio groups), not the SDI 1-4 BNC connectors. The selected input source audio is routed to all the corresponding FS3 output connectors. - Page 68 4K and UltraHD video can carry four groups of 16 channels (64 total) of embedded audio. The FS3 can receive up to 64 audio channels, 16 on each input connector, and can route these incoming audio channels to the embedded audio outputs, via the internal embedded audio groups, called SDI1-SDI4.
