1. From the rear of the MediaPort 7000 or MediaDeck 7000,
unscrew the two lock screws that secure the filler panel and
remove the filler panel.

Caution: Do not use the two lock screws on the rear panel of the module
to pull it into position. Tighten the screws only after the module is
fully inserted.
4. If installing two modules, repeat steps 1-3 for the
second module.
For complete installation instructions, refer to the Spectrum
System Installation and Hardware Reference Guide.
3. Tighten the two lock screws on the rear of the module
to secure it to the chassis.

2. Grasp the module handle and push firmly into the
slot. Ensure the module is fully inserted by pressing
on the connectors with the palm of your hand.

Installing the ChannelPort Module
Note: The DB-9 male-to-male extension
cables and the GPIO cable in this diagram
are customer supplied. The RJ-45-to-DB-9
cable is supplied by Harmonic.
For graphics control automation, automation can use the Oxtel protocol over IP or over serial RS-422. All automation systems differ in their array of
control connectors and methods of interfacing with the ChannelPort. The following diagram is one example.
