Installation and Setup
6.
Execute a test switch to ensure the Epica DGX 32 is working properly (see page 38).
Important: If power is cycled on the enclosure, the USB connection must be reestablished. Remove
the USB cable and close the software application in use. Then reconnect the USB cable to the same
USB connector used previously and reopen the communication software.
Attaching Input and Output Cables
Input and output connectors are the attachment points for source and destination devices that connect to
the system. Epica DGX 32 enclosures have 16 vertical board slots (8 slots each for the input and the
output boards with 4 connectors per board), allowing for a maximum configuration of 32x32. Viewed
from the rear of the enclosure, the input boards (for attaching sources) are on the left, and the output
boards (for attaching destinations) are on the right.
Connectors and Input and Output Channels
Input and output channels numbers correspond to the connectors and are located on the numbering plate
(metal strip) directly above the boards. For inputs, numbering is consecutive from top to bottom on each
board from left to right; outputs start over at 1 and follow the same pattern.

For board connector information and specifications, see the DGX SC Optical Board chapter on page 45
and the DGX DVI Board chapter on page 51.
Input and Output Signal Cables
When attaching input and output signal cables in a multiple-enclosure system, check the system and
enclosure numbers are on the rear of the Epica DGX 32 (if not on the rear, the numbers are on the side).
The system was programmed at the factory to operate only as a specifically configured system.
If AMX AutoPatch cable management bars are used, they are installed before attaching cables
(see page 21).
Before connecting all input and output cables, attach only the first two input and output cables (and any
applicable DGX Fiber modules) and execute a test switch (see page 38). When the test switch is
successful, attach the rest of the input and output cables.
For information on cabling specific types of connectors, see the DGX SC Optical Board chapter on
page 45 or the DGX DVI Board chapter on page 51.
