    Module Overview Fail-Safe Protection Switch The Avenue 7465 HD/SD Sync Changeover Switch module and Avenue 9465 3G/HD/SD Sync Changeover Switch module are fail-safe protection switches for monitoring and switching critical sync reference signals from any of Ensemble Designs’ reference generators or third-party sync pulse generators.
  • Page 5: Monitoring

    7465 Sync Changeover Switch and 9465 3G Sync Changeover Switch Monitoring Fault conditions can be monitored with an external alarm system or other device through the 15-pin Control connector on the rear of the Avenue 7465 or Avenue 9465. Signal status from this connector can be monitored by a device to show Primary and Secondary signal status and the current position of the protect switch (Primary or Secondary).

    7465 Sync Changeover Switch and 9465 3G Sync Changeover Switch Because both the NO and NC connections are provided, it is possible to have independent status lines for each of the two states of a status signal. For example, if the jumper is set to +5V, the Primary NO output will source +5V when the relay is in the normal position (Signal Failed) and the Primary NC output will source the +5V when the relay is closed (Signal Good).

    7465 Sync Changeover Switch and 9465 3G Sync Changeover Switch ScH Phase Used in composite systems, ScH Phase measures the relative phase between the leading edge of sync on line 1 of field 1 and a continuous subcarrier sinewave. Due to the arithmetic details of both PAL and NTSC, this relationship is not the same at the beginning of each frame.
