    Technical Overview document in your manual bind- The SH612 can also operate as a standalone MADI router and as an ES Control capable router for use with video routing systems. For these applications, all functions can be controlled from the front panel, or through the standalone Route Manager application or ES Control capable video router.
  • Page 8: Power On Sequence

    The SH612 routes digital audio via 12 MADI In and 12 MADI Out ports, each with the capacity to receive or transmit up to 56 channels (up to 24-bit, 48 kHz). For sample rates exceeding 50 kHz, each MADI channel can carry only 28 digital audio channels.
  • Page 9: Modes Of Operation

    - see the table of contents. Setting the Control Port For both modes, the SH612 must be set to read control messages from its female DE-9 Control port (RS-422 serial), instead of its IEEE-1394 ports (previously used for the now-discontinued Euphonix R-1 recorder).

    SH612 or the signals may drift. The SH612’s response to drift varies depending on the mode. Drift is allowed in the Jam Continuous (1% only) and Jam Once modes. It is only in either of these two modes that the Dual Ref LED lights.

    Each button corresponds to the physical MADI input/output port of the same number. The SH612 software detects the physical MADI ports connected upon startup and con- tinuously monitors all MADI input ports to detect valid MADI signals. If the SH612 detects MADI input port activity, it lights the corresponding key (bright-solid). If MADI signal activity is not detected or is not valid, the key lights dim-solid.

  • Page 25: Chapter 4: Integration With Jupiter Vm3000 Routers

    For the SH612 to receive and acknowledge commands from the VM3000, the Control Port must be set to RS422 (see page 9 for instructions). Make sure to cycle the SH612’s power off/on after resetting the Control Port.
  • Page 26: Jupiter Configuration

    The VM3000 has eight Serial ports configured in pairs, 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8. 4. Delegate one pair for the SH612. Do not connect anything to the other port in that pair except another SH612. Jupiter Configuration This section assumes you are familiar using the Jupiter Network Suite and Jupiter Con- figurator applications to edit Jupiter configuration sets.
  • Page 27: Switcher Description

    56 connections per MADI port instead of the 64 allowed in the MADI specification. The SH612 has 12 MADI ports so there are 56 * 12 = 672 ins/outs avail- able. Since the Jupiter assumes 64 per port, this discrepancy must be taken into ac- count when setting up switcher inputs/outputs.
  • Page 28: Switcher Input

    Varispeed operation, and the Jupiter assumes it carries the full 64 channels. Thus, make sure to enter the physical inputs properly on the Jupiter when configuring inputs on the SH612’s MADI ports: 064 for the first input of MADI port 2, 128 for the first input of MADI port 3, etc.
  • Page 29: Switcher Output

    The Switcher Output dialog opens. Figure 4-4 Jupiter Switcher Output dialog 4. Enter each SH612 output device on a separate row. For each output, enter the physical outputs for each level corresponding to their outputs on the SH612. Note again that outputs start at 000 so output 1 on MADI port 1 is output 000 on the Jupiter and output 1 on MADI port 2 is output 064 on the Jupiter.
