Glossary Revised: 05-02-01 NOTE Entries in this glossary that relate to specific system controller features, are made with reference to the PESA 3500Plus (v3.0). AES/EBU Audio Informal name for a digital audio standard established jointly by the Audio Engineering Society (www.aes.org) and the European Broadcasting Union (www.ebu.ch).
3500Plus System Controller phase modulation that transmits four bits per baud. At these speeds, data transmission rates are usually expressed in bits per second (b/s) rather than baud. Baud was originally a unit of telegraph signaling speed, set at one Morse code dot per second. It was proposed at the International Telegraph Conference of 1927, and named after French Engineer J.M.E.
3500Plus System Controller Categories provide an easy means of classifying and grouping switching system devices. Example: The categories VTR, 1, 2, and 3 can be used to construct the source names VTR1, VTR2, and VTR3. Category names: 1. Shall be created using only the following characters: ·...

As shown in Figure 45, a user can specify a single logical switch, such as VID Input 1 to VID Output 2.
3500Plus System Controller Control Panel See: Panel. CPU Link A bi-directional communication interface. A CPU link has two components: a serial port (either RS-232 or RS-422), and a protocol to govern how the port is used. Crosspoint The circuitry and components on a printed circuit board that constitute a single physical switch.

3500Plus System Controller The coordinates of crosspoints in matrix space are determined by the strobe they reside on, and their input and output numbers. They are given in the form (input,output) on strobe x. The origin of a component (a matrix of crosspoints) is designated by the point that falls nearest the origin of its strobe (1,1).
3500Plus System Controller Level A group of related components that are switched together. A level is sometimes referred to as a level of control and is the basic granularity seen by a user. The components that comprise a level will always be switched together except when performing diagnostic operations.
3500Plus System Controller Locks may be cleared by any panel or port that has the same requester code and lock priority as the panel that locked the destination, that has a higher lock priority, or that has a lock priority of 0 (zero).
3500Plus System Controller Logical Switch The control system software command that switches a logical input to a logical output. See also: Physical Switch. Matrix Breakup The division of a single physical matrix into one or more components. Matrix breakup allows complex signal types to reside within a single physical matrix. For example, a video matrix is often broken into R, G, and B components.

3500Plus System Controller Every routing switcher in a switching system is assigned a strobe. This is usually accomplished by setting a DIP switch on the back of the routing switcher. Strobes do not have to be unique and, in larger systems, each strobe might be associated with several routing switchers.
