Matrix 3200 Wideband Video Switcher Upgrade - Adding Video Circuit-Cards
5-9
Upgrading a Matrix 3200 Video Switcher which has a matrix size smaller than
32x32 requires adding one or more video cards. Both Input and Output Video
cards may be required as shown in Figure 5-9.A below. Page 5-10 describes
how to determine how many of each card type is required to change from one
matrix size to another and which connectors to plug the new cards into. The
following procedure describes how to do the upgrade.
1. See Page 5-12 "Software Procedure – Before and After a Hardware Upgrade".
2. Set the BME power switch (rear panel) to OFF and unplug the AC power cord.
3. Remove the Access Panel.
4. Remove the horizontal bar securing the video cards.
5. Plug the video cards in as required.
6. Reinstall the horizontal bar to secure the video cards.
7. Reinstall the Access Panel.
8. Plug the AC power cord in and set the BME power switch to ON.
9. See Page 5-12 "After Hardware Changes" if system virtualization is required.
10. Verify that the new matrix size is correctly identified.
