GENERAL

The purpose of this manual is to describe the proper installation and operation of the Wegener

Communications UNITY4422

1.2

INTRODUCTION

The UNITY 4422 unit is an

source. These inputs include the new 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 chroma formats, as well as the traditional

4:3 and new 16:9 aspect ratios. The input is a DVB-compliant signal, which is processed to

produce

NTSC

or PAL video, audio, e-mail (front panel text) output, and electronic-relay cueing

signals. The unit is fully network-controlled via the Wegener Communications, Inc. (WCI)

COMPEL control system.

The optional decryption feature allows for use of WCI

(COMPEL-CA™). Authorization of each unit is under network control.

In addition to network control, the unit features a front-panel LCD interface, for unit control and

viewing local status information. In addition, limited control of the unit (if allowed by the

COMPEL network) may be implemented via serial port, connecting either to a local terminal

or (via phone modem) to a remote terminal.

The UNITY4422 normally has expansion ports for two add-in modules. This unit, the DVB-

ASI Input model, has the DVB-ASI Input board mounted as Module 1. Therefore, there is only

room for one additional add-in module. Contact the Wegener Sales Department about available

options.

1.3

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION

Carefully unpack the unit and inspect it for obvious signs of physical damage that might have

occurred during shipment. Any damage claims must be reported to the carrier immediately. Be

sure to check the package contents carefully for important documents and materials.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid damage to this and other equipment, or personal injury, the following items should be

strictly observed.

1.4.1

Elevated Operating Ambient

If equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient of the

rack may be greater than the room ambient. Therefore, considerations should be given to the

TMRA, or Temperature inside the Mounting Rack, and not just inside the room.
