Overview
Functions of the HDS-X5800
Routing Switcher System
The HDS-X5800 routing switcher system is equipped
with the following functions:
Designated input and output line protect
function
This function prohibits switching of protected output
signals from other control panels (protect function) and
prohibits switching from other control panels by hiding
the input signals from all control panels (secret
function).
Crosspoint disable function
For every output signal, you can limit the input signals
available for selection so that any particular input
signals can be output to the specified output lines.
Password function
You can enter a password to prevent unauthorized
users from accessing the system.
Name setting function
You can set names for each input and output connector
in order to distinguish among the connected signals.
Two methods are available for setting the names;
either enter the device name and number (i.e. name of
the VTR, camera, etc.), for example VTR 1, or a
description using up to 16 characters. You can display
the name on the optional BKS-R3280/R3281 display
units and BKS-R1617/R3220 control units.
Virtual mapping function
You can set crosspoints on a virtual matrix.
Free assignment function
You can assign a different connector number to a
connector name on each level.
Tie line function
You can enable the system to automatically select the
signal line that connects two or three routing switchers.
Phantom function
You can switch several crosspoints at the same time.

Self-diagnosis function
Information about whether an error has occurred or not
can be displayed by the front-panel status indicator or
on the terminal connected to the primary station. The
information can also be output to the ALARM
connector in parallel.
Functions of an S-BUS System
An S-BUS control system transmits the control signals
among several routing switchers and control units that
are connected with one coaxial cable. In an S-BUS
control system, one switcher is designated as the
primary station which controls the entire system, and
the remaining switchers and control units are
designated as secondary stations. Signal transmission
between the secondary stations is controlled by the
primary station.
The S-BUS control system has the following features.
• LAN (Local Area Network) type control signal
transmission using a single 75-ohm coaxial cable.
• Possible extension of the coaxial cable up to 500
meters when a BELDEN 8281 or equivalent cable is
used.
• Possible connection and disconnection of a switcher
or control unit to the S-BUS line during normal
operations without turning the power off.
• Control of multiple S-BUS lines and up to 254
switchers and control units (including the primary
station) from the routing switcher designated as the
primary station.
• Possible connection of a maximum of 128 routing
switchers and control units to one S-BUS line.
• Display of the errors detected through the self-
diagnosis function on the PC (terminal emulator)
connected to the primary station on the S-BUS line.
• Storage and future recovery of the settings (system
settings and table data) made with the PC (terminal
emulator) and the crosspoint data in/from a computer
using the supplied BZR-20 Backup Software.
