  • Page 5: Overview

    1.1. INTRODUCTION The 7700SRV-XRF is the system controller (SC) for multi frame L band matrices comprised of Evertz Microsystems L band routers. A maximum matrix size of 512x512 is achievable with the XRF6 router. The 7700SRV-XRF hardware consists of a maximum of two SC cards housed in a 1RU 7701 multiframe with optional dual power supply.
  • Page 6 Control of the router system can be accomplished by using any combination of SNMP manager software (such as VL-Pro), X-NCP2 panels, or Evertz Router Control (ERC) protocol over the SC’s Serial Control Port (SCP). The control system(s) must interface with the active SC card.
  • Page 7: Installation

    The second and third slots from the left (facing the front of the frame) are used for the 7700SRV-XRF cards. 2.1. FRAME The 7701 Evertz Microsystems multiframe has a door at the front which can be opened by loosening the two screws at the far sides of the door. 2.2. BACKPANEL CONNECTIONS The rear panel of the 7700SRV-XRF is illustrated in Figure 2-1.

    7700 MultiFrame Manual SRV-XRF System Controller STATUS INDICATORS AND DISPLAY The 7700SRV-XRF includes a number of status LEDs, a toggle switch and 4 character dot matrix display for monitoring and diagnostics. The large green and red LEDs next to the toggle switch are used to indicate the overall health of the card.
  • Page 10 7700 MultiFrame Manual SRV-XRF System Controller The large green and red LEDs at the top of the board indicate the card status. Only Status LED: one of these LEDs will be on at any time after power up. The Red LED ON indicates an error has occurred and has been logged in the event log.

    Note: The following steps are to be repeated on any secondary SC card. 1. Connect a PC serial cable to the 4 pin 7700SRV-XRF connector J1 using the Evertz Microsystems upgrade cable ( female DB9 serial connector to 2x3 strip connector ) as illustrated in Figure 4-1.

    SNMP. It is assumed that the system controller has been configured. Details on configuring the system controller card can be found in the MIB file. (Please contact Evertz Microsystems for this information). Information on each router in the system is contained in the chassis orientation table. To configure a matrix, data on all the frames in the system must be entered and then applied in SNMP by performing a set (set to ‘true’) on the MIB parameter xrf6ApplyOrientationData.

  • Page 17: X-Ncp2 Panel Operation

    The Evertz X-NCP2 control panel is a multi-function control panel used to control the 7700SRV-XRF system controller or XRF6 and XRF1 routers, as well as other Evertz products. When connected to the 7700SRV-XRF system controller, the panel can be used to set crosspoints, execute salvos or configure parameters associated with inputs and/or outputs.
  • Page 18: Example 1: Pushbutton Control To Switch Input 2 To Output 5

    7700 MultiFrame Manual SRV-XRF System Controller The examples listed below illustrate two different methods of initiating a crosspoint take with the router and also configuring the gain setting on the inputs. To move up one level in the menus when in configuration mode, press the [ESC] key.

    7700 MultiFrame Manual SRV-XRF System Controller 5.1.3. Example 3: Setting the Gain to +6dB in Manual Model on All Inputs 1. Initiate a panel session by highlighting the IP address (or router name) of the router in the display area of the panel. This is done using the leftmost scroll knob. When the frame IP address (or name) is highlighted, press [SETUP].
