81-9059-0545-0 Rev. B UCI-2000-S P ROTOCOL RANSLATOR Chapter 1 – Introduction The PESA UCI-2000-S protocol converter is designed to provide an interface between Sony and PESA routing switchers and control systems. The UCI-2000-S can operate in one of two distinct modes, allowing PESA routing matrices to be controlled by a Sony control system and control panels or allowing Sony routing matrices to be controlled by a PESA 3500 family control system.
81-9059-0545-0 Rev. B UCI-2000-S P ROTOCOL RANSLATOR 2.4 Mounting The UCI-2000-S Mainframe is rack mounted in a standard 19” equipment rack. Sufficient space must be provided behind the rack to allow for the control and power cables. All mounting holes should be utilized and mounting hardware tightened securely.
81-9059-0545-0 Rev. B UCI-2000-S P ROTOCOL RANSLATOR 2.5 Cabling All cables should be strain relieved and secured to racks or other supporting structures. Failure to provide adequate cable support can result in cables separating from connectors. If cable runs are to be stored under an elevated floor, they should be tied to the racks as a guide.

B UCI-2000-S P ROTOCOL RANSLATOR Chapter 3 – Setup and Operation 3.1 Sony to PESA Mode The Sony to PESA control mode allows the UCI-2000-S to control up to eight levels of PESA PRC-based routing switchers from the Sony control system. Each of the eight additional levels can support a matrix size of 256 x 256 inputs and outputs.
81-9059-0545-0 Rev. B UCI-2000-S P ROTOCOL RANSLATOR 3.2 PESA to Sony Mode The PESA to Sony control mode allows the UCI-2000-S to control up to eight levels of Sony S- BUS based routing switchers from a PESA 3500 family control system. Each of the eight additional levels can support a matrix size of 256 x 256 inputs and outputs.
