6.
Audio Insert/Extract Boards only – See page 123 for information on setting the DIP switches (this is the only
way to configure the insert/extract functionality). Flip the DIP switch for each connector that needs its setting
changed. We recommend writing down the setting for each connector to make verifying correct audio switching
behavior easier in Step 14.
AIE Boards can only be installed in an expansion slot (FIG. 125 and FIG. 126).
7.
Install board in Enova DGX 32 – With the board's extractor handle in the extended (unlocked) position, line up
the board's edges on the board guides that are along the top and bottom of the board slot (FIG. 125).
Or
Install board in Enova DGX 8/16/64 – With the board's extractor handle in the extended (unlocked) position, line
up the board's edges on the board guides that are along the left and right of the board slot (FIG. 126). Note that input
boards have board guides at the top of the slot and board guides for the output boards are at the bottom of the slot
due to their reversed orientation in the enclosure.
8.
Begin pushing the board into the slot until the extractor handle starts to engage the metal extractor plate (the
extractor handle moves into its folded position).
When the extractor handle starts to lift, flip the handle toward the center of the board until it snaps into its folded
(locked) position, which firmly seats the board.
9.
Fasten the screw (which was removed in Step 5) that holds the board in place. This screw must be tightened
securely before connectors are attached in Step 13.
10.
If the enclosure was powered down – Plug the AC power cords back into the power supplies.
11.
Verify that the system recognizes the board:
a.
Attach a PC to the serial port on the enclosure with an RS-232 null modem cable (pinout for PC to enclosure:
5 GND to 5 GND, 2 RXD to 3 TXD, and 3 TXD to 2 RXD).
b.
Open DGX Configuration Software (or another a terminal emulation program).
c.
Select the Terminal tab.
d.
Set the COM port and baud rate (the default baud rate for the Enova DGX is 9600)
e.
Click Connect.
f.
Enter ~scri4v3!
g.
Check to be sure the new board is included in the input or output boards list (FIG. 127). (Audio Insert/Extract
Boards are listed under "expansion boards.") If not, re-seat the board and enter the command again. (Do not
disconnect the terminal program until after Step 16 is successful.)

Optional for systems with SC Optical Boards – Power down the enclosure again.
Note: If using a cable management bar, tie the cable to the cable management bar far enough below
the connector to allow for the manufacturer's recommended bend radius. The bend radius for
AMX SC terminated fiber cables is 2 inches (5 cm).
