    • Only use attachments/accessories specified by MultiDyne®. • Use only with the cart, rack, stand, • tripod, bracket, or table specified by MultiDyne®, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
  • Page 4: Overview

    OVERVIEW Overview Overview of the Product Family and Variants The MDoG 6002 is part of the MDoG 60X series, a family of high-performance 12G-SDI distribution amplifiers designed for reliable signal transport in broadcast environments. This series supports a range of configurations to cater to various needs in signal distribution, including dual 1x4 or single 1x8 modes.
  • Page 5: Sdi Signal Handling

    SDI SIGNAL HANDLING SDI Signal Handling SDI Transport The MDoG 6002 is a 12G-SDI Reclocking Distribution Amplifier, designed to support high-definition video distribution over long cable runs. The module can operate in either 1x8 mode (one input, eight outputs) or 2x4 mode (two inputs, four outputs each), making it suitable for a wide range of broadcast environments.

    SDI SIGNAL HANDLING 2.1.1 Block Diagram of the MDoG-6002 The MDoG-6002 Block Diagram provides a visual overview of the internal signal flow and key components that process the SDI signals within the distribution amplifier. 1. Inputs (IN 1 and IN 2): The diagram shows two separate inputs, IN 1 and IN 2, which are the SDI signal inputs to the module.
  • Page 7: Signal Re-Clocking And Bypass

    SDI SIGNAL HANDLING 4. Cable Drivers (1 to 5): Once the signals are equalized and reclocked, they are sent to the Cable Drivers (Driver 1 through Driver 4). These drivers amplify and condition the signal for distribution across multiple outputs, ensuring that the signal strength remains consistent across the outputs. 5.

    SDI SIGNAL HANDLING R2-6002-DA-1X4-12G-B with Bypass Relay The R2-6002-DA-1X4-12G-B with Bypass Relay diagram illustrates how the bypass relay system functions within the distribution amplifier. This system provides redundancy and automatic signal switching to ensure uninterrupted video distribution in case of power failure. 1.

    SDI SIGNAL HANDLING 4. Outputs The processed signal (either from the Primary Input or the Backup Input) is then distributed across the four main outputs (OUT 1 to OUT 4). The Out 5 connection serves either as an additional output or as part of the bypass relay system, depending on the configuration.

    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Installing the MDoG 6002 in an openGear Frame Once the rear module has been installed, the next step is to insert the MDoG 6002 module into the frame. 1. Preparation: Ensure the frame is powered off before installing the module to prevent damage from static electricity or accidental electrical surges.
  • Page 12: Configuration

    CONFIGURATION Configuration The MDoG-6002 module can be configured and monitored remotely using DashBoard™ software, or manually through DIP switches. This chapter covers the steps for configuring key operational modes, monitoring the module's status, and adjusting settings via DashBoard. DashBoard Control Overview DashBoard™...
  • Page 13: Mode Control Configuration

    CONFIGURATION Mode Control Configuration The Mode Control of the MDoG-6002 allows users to select the appropriate operational mode based on their broadcast requirements. This can be configured through DashBoard under the Control tab or manually adjusted via DIP switches for local control. The Mode Control dropdown provides the following options: 1x8 Mode: Distributes a single input across all 8 outputs.
  • Page 14: Monitoring Signal Status Via Dashboard

    CONFIGURATION Monitoring Signal Status via DashBoard The Status tab in DashBoard allows real-time monitoring of the signal status and reclocker performance. Users can check whether the signal is Active, the SDI data rate, and whether the reclocker is Locked or in bypass mode. For example, in 1x8 Auto-failover mode, both channels 1 and 2 may be active, ensuring redundancy in case of signal failure.
  • Page 15: Mode Selection And Hardware Status

    CONFIGURATION The Signal Status and Reclocker Status fields provide valuable information for diagnosing signal issues or verifying the reclocker is maintaining proper signal timing. Mode Selection and Hardware Status The Mode Control allows the module to operate in three primary modes. The HW Status icon will only be green when the corresponding signal conditions for each mode are met.
