Attaching Audio Input And Output Wires; Applying Power And Startup - AMX Enova DGX 8 Instruction Manual

Installation and Setup

Attaching Audio Input and Output Wires

Enova DGX Switchers can be ordered to include an Audio Insert/Extract Board(s). This audio board
works in conjunction with HDMI, DVI, and DXLink Boards. The inputs and outputs are configured on a
per connector basis to insert or extract audio.
Important: Setting the DIP switches is the only mechanism for configuring the Audio Insert/Extract
Board's insert/extract functionality. Therefore, setting the switches (which requires removal of the
board from the enclosure) needs to be done at the time of installation setup.
For specifications, connector wiring, and configuration information, see the "Audio Insert/Extract
Board" chapter on page 101.

Applying Power and Startup

The enclosure's universal power receptacles will accept all major international standard power sources.
Two US power cords are included with all shipments unless ordered otherwise. Maximum power
specifications are on each power receptacle (and are also listed on page 20). Always use earth-grounded
power cords / system with an Enova DGX Switcher.
The source electrical outlet should be installed near the enclosure, easily accessible, and properly
grounded. Power should come from a building branch circuit. We strongly recommend using a dedicated
line for the system's power. Use a minimum breaker current rating of 20 A for 110 V or 10 A for 230 V.
To avoid an overload, note the power consumption rating of all the equipment connected to the circuit
breaker before applying power.
Power Budget Planning for Systems with DXLink Boards
If the system contains DXLink Boards, be sure to read the section on Power Budget Planning on
page 88. The power draw for the system should be calculated in order to maintain the power redundancy
of the power supplies in the enclosure. Calculating the power draw also helps determines how many
DXLink Transmitters and Receivers can be powered via the switcher.
Complete Power Redundancy Setup
For proper redundant operations, both power supplies must be powered at all times. To take full
advantage of the dual power feeds and redundant power supplies on the Enova DGX Switcher, we
recommend cabling the primary Enova DGX Switcher power feed, via a power strip to an outlet
connected to one circuit breaker and the redundant power feed via a power strip to an outlet connected to
a second circuit breaker.
