The System 5cr comes with two sets of mounting brackets. One set is for
mounting under a table or on a wall and the second set is for rack
mounting. Either set is attached to the System 5 by four #8 screws.
When mounted under a table on a wall, the bracket will extend
approximately 1/4 inch above the top surface of the System 5 enclosure,
as shown in Figure 2-1. This is designed to have an air space between
the System 5 enclosure and the surface it is mounted on.
A second set of brackets (top example) has slotted holes that face
forward to accommodate rack-mounting hardware. When attached to the
System 5 enclosure, the forward-facing holes will align with the holes in a
standard rack.

This section covers the types of input and output connections on the
System 5. With the exception of input PC1 on the front panel, all other
inputs are on the left side of the rear panel.

PC2 and PC3 inputs accommodate video formats, through a computer-
9
video interface, as well as stereo audio from a computer. The video can
be RGBS (composite sync) or RGBHV (separate horizontal and vertical
sync), using BNC connectors. Connect balanced or unbalanced, 2-
channel audio to the connector marked L R, using a 5-pole, 3.5 mm
captive screw connector. (Audio connectors are discussed later in this
chapter.)
VID1 and VID2 each have two BNCs and a 5-pole, 3.5 mm audio
10
connector. The BNC connectors accept composite video or S-video. The
formats are configured through the front panel, or through RS-232
programming. Connect composite video to the left BNC, marked V/Y. If
using S-video, connect the luma (Y) signal to the left BNC (V/Y) and the
chroma signal (C) to the right BNC connector marked C.
VID Input sources could be VCRs DVDs document cameras, or anything
that outputs either composite video or S-video.
