Expansion Boards
Expansion boards provide additional functionality to the system. The Enova DGX 8/16/32 can each hold two expansion
boards. The Enova DGX 64 can hold eight expansion boards (see FIG. 6 on page 18).
Currently Enova DGX Switchers have one type of expansion board: the Audio Insert/Extract Board. This board is used
in conjunction with the embedded audio feed on standard boards, which must be HDMI, DVI, DXLink Twisted Pair, or
DXLink Fiber. For additional information on the Audio Insert/Extract Board, see page 119.
Note: Numbers for connectors on expansion boards are on the boards themselves not on the numbering
plate at the top which is for the standard input and output boards.
FIG. 13
Audio Insert/Extract (expansion) Boards – shown with a variety of video input and output boards
Note: Enova DGX 8 only – AIE Board connectors 1-8 in the left and right expansion slots correspond to
standard connectors 1-8 on the input and output boards respectively. AIE connectors 9-16 are inoperable.
If the expansion board slots in an enclosure are empty, the slots can be used for expansion boards to expand the
functionality of the system. The procedure for installing/replacing an Audio Insert/Extract Board and setting it for
insertion or extraction starts on page 123.
Caution: Standard input and output boards will not fit in the expansion slots.
Important: Setting the DIP switches is the only mechanism for configuring the Audio Insert/Extract Board to
either insert or extract audio. Therefore, setting the switches (which requires removal of the board from the
enclosure) needs to be done at the time of installation setup.
Serial Number
The serial number is normally located on the rear of the enclosure on the left.
