HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual Setting Jumpers HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ modules have one jumper, CJ1, which sets the module for local or remote control. See Setting Jumper CJ1 for Local or Remote Control on page 13. The submodule on HMX6803+AI+T, OP+HMX+AI+13T, and OP+HMX+AI+CxxT modules has eight impedance jumpers that can be set for High-Z or 660Ω...
Chapter 2 Installation Follow this procedure to select an analog impedance of 600Ω or Hi-Z on each channel: Locate jumpers CH1A, CH1B, CH2A, CH2B, CH3A, CH3B, CH4A, and CH4B on the analog audio module. Figure 2-3 shows the location of these jumpers. Impedance jumpers CH1A-CH 4B Figure 2-3 Impedance Jumpers on Analog Audio Submodule...
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ modules operate only in fan-cooled FR6802+ and FR6822+ frames, subject to the limitations shown in Table 2-3. These modules cannot be installed in 6800/7000 series frames. Note: To maintain proper temperatures, ensure that the front panel is closed at all times and that the fan module is fully operational.
Chapter 2 Installation See the 6800+ Safety Instructions and Standards Manual for important information about safely installing your module. Once you have installed your HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ modules, you can connect them to the appropriate input and outputs. Installing Front and back modules in the OPTO+ series have plastic caps that protect the fragile laser OP+HMX+ connections from damage.
Page 31
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual On the side of the back module that inserts into the front module, remove the inner protective cap from the fiber connection (see Figure 2-5 on page 16). CAUTION: Microscopic dust or other contaminants can seriously impair or disable a fiber optic network.
Chapter 2 Installation Pull out the finger-release screws on the right and left side of the front panel of the frame, and then open the front panel. Grasp the extractor handle on the installed module, and then pull the module out of its slot. Use the handle as a lever.
Page 33
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual Use care when handling the fiber; do not twist or pull. Keep your cleaning fluids away from open flame or spark. Figure 2-6 describes the acceptable limits of defects in a fiber connection. Zone 1 Scratches and dust (0 to 20 micron diameter)
Chapter 2 Installation Lightly wipe the fiber tip in the central portion of the lint-free wipe. CAUTION: Do not scrub the fiber. Excessive rubbing will leave scratches. Repeat the wiping action on another clean section of the wipe or a new wipe. Inspect the connector again with the fiberscope.
Operation Operating When you set the control parameters on the HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+, observe the following: Notes If you make changes to certain parameters, other related parameters may also be affected. See Cross-Functional Parameter Changes on page 32 for more information.
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual Audio The audio embedder component in the HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ is composed of several smaller subcomponent blocks: Embedding Modes One ancillary data stripper (ADS) Four audio embedding subcomponents The first subcomponent is an ancillary data stripper (ADS). This block removes all ancillary data packets in the input SDI stream, prior to embedding.
Page 38
Chapter 3 Operation When auxiliary data exists in the ancillary data space, appended audio appears following that data, as shown in Figure 3-2. ADS before embedding Other Other auxilliary data auxilliary data ADS after embedding group 1 Other Other auxilliary data Group 1 auxilliary data Figure 3-2 In Append Embedding Mode, Adding Group 1 When Auxiliary Data is Present...
Page 39
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual If you insert Group 1 audio when there is pre-existing Group 2 audio in the ancillary data space and no Group 1 audio, the Group 1 audio will be inserted following the Group 2 audio, as shown in Figure 3-5.
Page 40
Chapter 3 Operation When you attempt Overwrite embedding and there is no previous audio (as in Figure 3-7), it will return an error because there is nothing to overwrite. ADS before embedding ADS after attempting to embed group 1 Result: Error is returned Figure 3-7 Overwrite Embedding Mode When There is No Pre-Existing Audio Figure 3-8 shows how overwrite embedding will appear in the ancillary data space when...

Chapter 3 Operation Example: Replacing Audio Channel 1 in Group 1 Only To replace only embedded audio channel 1 in group 1 with audio from external AES 1A source, follow these steps: Leave the input audio routing path at the default configuration (SRCs 1-8 from deembedded audio, SRCs 9-16 from external AES audio).
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual Audio Path The output audio source selection consists of two sets of controls. Input Sample Rate Conversion (SRC) routing source selections Each SRC source can be assigned to one of the following sources: AES In (1A/1B to 8A/8B) (with AES8 option) ...
Chapter 3 Operation HDX6803+/OP+HDX+ parameter settings (de-embedding module): Set the Seamless Sound Enable parameter (Processing > Audio) to Enable. Set the Audio LOV Output Mode to Pass. To set the AES output(s) to be sourced directly from the audio deembedder by using the appropriate Demux Ch source, set the Output AES 1-8 Source Select parameter to Demux Ch 1/2, Demux Ch 3/4, etc.
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual EQ Pathological PLL Pathological Dolby-E Automatic Header Alignment When you embed Dolby E audio, the module automatically adjusts input audio delay such that the Dolby E header resides on the line specified by the Dolby E Start Line parameter, with a tolerance of ±1 line.
Chapter 3 Operation Maintaining When you use Sample Rate Conversion with PCM Audio to change audio rates and provide audio synchronization with output video, this introduces a delay in the audio signal path. Audio/Video Alignment To maintain an alignment between video and audio in PCM mode, set the Audio/Video Align parameter (Processing >...

Chapter 3 Operation Changing Parameter Settings Using CCS Software Before using CCS Navigator to change your module’s parameter settings, you must discover the module. Discovery is the process by which CCS Navigator finds, and then connects to your module. Identifying Your Module in CCS Software Whether your module is a HMX6803+ or an OP+HMX+, when you discover it in CCS Navigator or refresh it in + Pilot Lite, the module will be identified as a HMX6803+.

Laser Safety Guidelines Laser WARNING Safety Use of controls, adjustments, and procedures other than those specified in this document may result in hazardous laser radiation exposure. Optical fiber telecommunication systems use semiconductor laser transmitters that emit infrared light that is normally not visible to the human eye. Although a conventional laser produces a small beam of light, the power density is very high, and it can cause damage to your eyes.
Appendix B Laser Safety Guidelines Ensure technicians have satisfactorily completed an approved training course before performing installation or maintenance. Ensure there are appropriate warning labels near the optical ports of the modules. Precautions During service, maintenance, or restoration, an optical fiber telecommunication system is considered unenclosed.
Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips Software Communication Problems Problem The frame is powered up, but the module does not communicate with CCS Navigator or the web GUI interface. Solutions Ensure you have specified the proper module slot. See your 6800+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information about slot identification.
Page 94
Appendix C Communication and Control Troubleshooting Tips Problem The IP address of the frame has been forgotten. Solution Follow this procedure: Remove the ETH6800+ module from the frame. Select DIP switch 2 on the ETH6800+ module and slide the tab to the forward position. This sets the ETH6800+ module to its default IP address of 192.168.100.250.
HMX6803+ and OP+HMX+ Installation and Operation Manual Problem CCS software sees the frame, but does not find all of the modules. Solutions Remove any legacy 6800 series products.
