System Control Connections

Ethernet
All primary system components are connected via RJ45 ethernet through a 100Base-T
ethernet switch. These devices include:
•
System Computer (SC263 or SC264)
•
CM401T Master Fader Module (console center section)
•
CM402T Expanded Channel Module (console center section)
•
CM403 Film and Joystick Panels
•
CM408T Eight-channel Modules
•
DF66 SuperCore
•
CO600 Changeover Switch
•
Modular I/O Remote modules (for remote preamps and other module configura-
tion)
Monitor, Trackball, and Keyboard
The System Computer provides master control for the entire system. Monitor, mouse,
and keyboard are located in the control room and connect to this computer to allow con-
trol of configuration, routing, mixing, and file management.
A KVM extender is typically used which routes these signals from the machine room to
the control room through a single CAT-5 cable built into the console ethernet harness.
TCC Control
The System Computer connects to the MC524 Monitor-Comms Interface and up to
seven ML530 Mic-Line Interfaces via TCC connections.
Machine Control
The System Computer provides a 9-pin serial interface for connection to a serial
device or synchronizer (CB RM6 or Soundmaster). A MIDI interface and timecode
in/out are included on a separate 9-pin connector. A BNC input for video sync is availa-
ble for serial machine control reference.
GPIO
The System Computer provides 32 GP inputs and 32 GP outputs on two 37-pin DSub
connectors.
