  • Page 18: Nomenclature

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Nomenclature Expansion refers to expanding the number of outputs of a system beyond 256. This is achieved by copying the inputs to one or more additional chassis. Cascade refers to increasing the number of inputs of a system beyond 256. This is achieved by utilising the in- built combiner switch at the output of the crosspoint card.

  • Page 23: Input Fin: Expand Audio

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Input Fin: Expand Audio To expand the number of outputs beyond a single rack frame requires the input signals to be buffered and passed on to additional frames. The Expand Fin performs this function. These Fin provide the interface between signals arriving from the expansion cables and the ‘crosspoint motherboard’.

  • Page 24: Crosspoint Module

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Crosspoint Module The crosspoint card is organised as a 256 input by 32 output crosspoint. The 256 input signals o n the motherboard of a 16U chassis are driven directly to one large programmable logic chip. The first 128 inputs to each card are from the inputs local to that half of the frame, with the next 128 provided from the other half of the frame.

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Reference Rear I/O Module The Q256 audio is fitted with a rear Reference Module. There are two types available, one supported AES Balanced (shown below) and the other supporting AES3id un-balanced. For routers with AES only Fins, no analog fins, there should be an external AES audio or video reference present to ensure the internal system audio clocks are locked to house reference.

  • Page 32: Ethernet Rear I/O Module

    If both processors are to be joined on the same network then an external 10-Bast-T or 100-Base-T hub should be used. Each control processor has a unique IP (Internet Protocol) address which will be set to the Quartz default address of 192.0.2.200 on the master (lower) processor and 192.0.2.201 on the backup (upper) processor.

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Q-Link Ports (rear panel) The Q256 can be supplied with the Q256-QL option, which adds one main looping Q-Link and three terminated Q-Links. Audio Monitoring Connectors There are four audio monitoring RJ45 connectors on the rear panel and a stereo headphone jack. These connectors are only enabled once the Signal Monitoring module is installed.

  • Page 50: Multi-Rack Systems

    The Inter-Rack Cables which connect the 'Expand' Outputs to the 'Expand' Inputs, and the ‘Cascade’ Outputs to the ‘Cascade’ Inputs are provi ded by Quartz in Standard lengths, part AK-0013. Because of the cable length, the racks should be closely located, either directly above one another, or side by side in adjacent rack frames (with no obstruction between rack frames so cables can run directly between routers).

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Typical Rack Layouts The typical rack sizes used in studios have 43U, 45U or 47U of useable rack space. These racks will accommodate two Q256-DA 16U chassis without patch bays or one chassis with 336 patch fields.
  • Page 54 Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 A typical Q256 512x512 installation is shown below. With four Q256 units the power density is high and there is 6.5KW of heat to be dissipated. The cooling air is drawn from right to left so in this example racks A and C will be getting the hot exhaust air from racks B and D.

  • Page 55: Maintenance

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 Maintenance Q256 series products are designed to require minimal maintenance. To aid fault diagnosis there are a large number of internal temperature sensors, fan speed sensors, and signal present sensors. All of the diagnostic information can be accessed either through the WinSetup software, directly using an Ethernet Telnet port, or through a serial port.

  • Page 56: Winsetup Diagnostics

    Quartz Q256-DA/AA System Manual MANUAL-09 WinSetup Diagnostics To use WinSetup diagnostics it is first necessary to configure WinSetup for a Q256 router and set the communications to be either Ethernet (recommended) or Serial (single device only). The ‘ p iset’ command should already have been used on the Q256 to tell the router its exact configuration (number of PSU’s fitted,...
