RD89 Video Fail/Video Analysis Module
7.5.1
Operation
The RD89 Video Fail/Video Analysis Module is specifically designed to provide for
automated monitoring of video presence, level and quality. This functionality in
conjunction with the crosspoint matrix video switching capability provided by MAXPRO-
Net® software allows a high level of automated and custom response to video source
exceptions. The RD89 monitors/analyzes video inputs (up to 32 maximum) on a
sequential basis. The typical monitoring period is 100ms per input and therefore, the
module can scan all 32 inputs in approximately 3 seconds. If less video inputs have
been configured for monitoring, the scan period will be reduced accordingly.
7.5.2
Installation
The RD89 may be installed in any 3RU video slot within MAXPRO-Net® subrack. The
module may be configured to monitor/analyze subrack bus video or an external input via
the subrack cascade input.
