Mounting

• As shown in Figure 1, a matrix switching bay fits

into a standard 48.3cm (19in) rack with a height of

26.7cm (10.5in) or one rack wide by six racks

high.

• Bays require a minimum of 44mm (1.75in)

clearance from bay-to-bay (one rack unit). Ensure

airflow around the bays for proper ventilation.

• For multiple bay configurations, carefully identify

the bays before mounting and place video inputs

near the top of the racks to avoid tangled cables.

Figure 1. Bay mounting dimensions

Power Source

• Matrix switcher bay AD2010N and AD2020N

connect to a 120Vac, 50-60Hz power source.

These bays use an integrated 3-wire cord for

mating to the power source.

• Matrix switcher bay AD2010P and AD2020P

connect to a 100–240Vac, 50-60Hz power source.

Note: This unit has a Euro-style IEC-type inlet. A

suitable detachable cord connects between the

IEC 320 inlet and the power source. The cord

Connections

• Set jumpers in plug-in modules before making

system connections.

• System connections require good grade, 75-ohm,

RG-59U video cable (Belden 8241 or equivalent)

with BNC connectors. Complete all connections

before applying power.

• Terminate all video outputs at the last bay in the

run to 75 ohms. An un-terminated run results in a

brighter picture than desired. A double terminated

run results in a darker picture than desired.

• To facilitate servicing, identify all connecting

cables with source/destination numbers.

General

• Perform each installation in a planned and orderly

manner.

CAUTION: Each bay uses plug-in VIMs

(video input modules) and VOMs (video

output modules). Although VIMs and

VOMs can plug into any slot of a bay

and still work (as long as they are

properly configured), it is important to

plug all VIMs in series “starting from the

right-most slot” and all VOMs in series

“starting from the left-most slot”. If this is

not done, future expansion and

troubleshooting will be difficult.

• Confirm that each piece of equipment operates as

early as possible during the installation procedure.

It is easier to remove a few temporary

connections than it is to disconnect and re-wire a

large number of permanent connections.

Powering Up the System

Bring the system online only after:

• The CPU has been installed and connected

• Video input has been connected

• At least one monitor has been connected for

viewing the output

• All lines are properly terminated

• At least one keyboard (or external computer) has

been connected for control

• Power has been connected to the equipment, one

bay at a time, ending with the CPU.

Glossary of Terms

Terms used in this guide are as follows:

Matrix Switching Bay = A device that can switch a large

number of video inputs such as cameras to multiple video

outputs that connect to a device such as a monitor, DVR,

or VCR.

VIM = Video input module (each VIM supports up to 16

video inputs). Up to 16 VIMs can plug into a bay but its

number may be limited by the amount of VOMs in the bay.

VOM = Video output module (each VOM supports up to 4

video output devices). Up to 16 VOMs can plug into a bay

but its number may be limited by the amount of VIMs in the

bay.

Camera Group = Each matrix switching bay supports a

camera group of up to 256 video inputs: camera group 1

(1-256 inputs), camera group 2 (257-512 inputs), camera

group 3 (513-768 inputs), and so on.

Monitor Level = A monitor level is up to 16 video outputs

supported by one or more bays: monitor level 1 (1 -16

outputs), level 2 (17-32 outputs), level 3 (33-48 outputs),

and so on. Video outputs can be in one or more bays.

ADDL (AD Data Line) = One data line controls up to four

monitor levels (or 64 video outputs). Four data lines control

up to 16 monitor levels (or 256 video outputs).

Data Buffer = Amplifies video and filters data before

sending it to a video output device.

About the Product

Note: Refer to the Glossary of Terms on page 3

while reading this section.

The MegaPower 3200 matrix switching bay system

can switch one of up to 3200 video inputs (typically

from cameras) to one of up to 256 video outputs

(typically to monitors).

The maximum 3200 video input x 256 video output

system is shown in

Figure 4. In this case, the system

manages inputs and outputs as follows:

• The 3200 video inputs (shown horizontally) are

divided into 13 camera groups, with each group

(256 inputs) supported by a switching bay.

• The 256 video outputs (shown vertically) are

divided into groups of up to 16, with each group

called a monitor level.

Matrix Switching Bays

Note: The number of video inputs versus video

outputs required determines the number of bays

used in a matrix, and the use and number of

components in each bay.

As shown in

Figure 2, from right-to-left, the rear of a

typical bay contains:

• An integrated AD2010PS power supply module

that converts ac to dc power to support the bay.

• AD2010DB-01 plug-in data buffer module that

amplifies the video signals and if required, filters

associated data.

• Either 16 plug-in AD2016AVIM video input

modules (VIMs), 16 AD2034BVOM video output

modules (VOMs), or a combination of both.

Plug-in Modules

Except for the power supply, each plug-in module

has a BNC panel that plugs into the rear of the bay

and front panel/circuit board assembly that plugs into

the front of the bay (

Figure 3).

Figure 3. Plug-in modules shown in the bay

Plug-in modules are as follows:

VIMs: A VIM, as directed by the keyboard, acts as a

primary switch by selecting a video input from a

camera group and making it available to the video

switching bus along the backplane. A VIM:

• Can support up to 16 camera inputs.

• Is installed from right to left in the rear of the bay,

the number of VIMs required depends on the

number of camera inputs to be switched. If a bay

cannot support the required number of VIMs,

additional bays are required.

• Comes factory configured for the camera group it

is to receive input from and the monitor level it will

support. However, the installer must configure the

VIM (using jumpers) if they are replacing a

defective one or adding one to an existing system.

Data buffer module: This module takes an input

from each VIM, amplifies them, and makes them

available externally via cable connections to other

bays.

VOMs: A VOM, as directed by the keyboard, acts as

a secondary switch by selecting which of its four

video outputs (A, B, C, or D) connects to the video

input selected by the VIM of a camera group. A

VOM:

• Is installed in the bay for the highest camera

group.

• Comes in three types: VOM-1 supports four

camera groups, VOM-3 supports eight camera

groups, and VOM-4 supports 13 camera groups.

IMPORTANT! The highest camera group is

always received internally from the bay the VOM

resides. All other camera groups are received

externally from other bays via VOM cables. The

video path of a video input is shown in

Figure 7.

• Provides text overlay to the video signal.

• Comes factory configured for the monitor levels it

will support. However, the installer must configure

the VOM (using jumpers) if they are replacing a

defective one or adding one to an existing system.

Standard vs. Condensed Bays

A switching bay can be an AD2010 standard bay or

AD2020 condensed bay.

Standard Bay

The standard bay (Figure 5) contains a video

switching bus along an internal backplane that has

16 lines.

Note: A standard bay is considered “mixed” when it

contains both VIMs and VOMs, or “dedicated” when

it contains only VIMs or VOMs. VOMs are installed in

only in the bay for the highest numbered camera

group.

A separate MegaPower CPU (central processing

unit) and keyboard control the matrix switcher via an

AD data line. This line:

• Plugs into the DATA LINE IN BNC on the rear

panel of the bay.

• Sends 64 ADDL switch packets of information to

the switching bays that includes camera and

monitor selection, titles, and time and date.

• Controls up to 13 camera groups (3200 video

inputs) and up to four monitor levels (64 video

outputs).

IMPORTANT! For dome PTZ control, each

additional four camera groups (1024 video inputs)

requires a separate AD data line (Table 2).

• Can loop from bay-to-bay.

Power Supply Module

The AD2010PS power supply module converts ac to

dc which powers the bay.

Power Supply Front Panel

Referring to Figure 9:

1. SET UP/NORMAL SWITCH: In the SET UP

position, this switch enables sync test and

adjustment. The red LED blinks when the switch

is in the SET UP position.

2. SYNC LOSS LED: This red LED is off if video

sync is locked. When lit, it indicates that sync is

not locked due either to a poor or wrong sync

signal or none at all (as determined by the slide

switch just below it).

3. SYNC REFERENCE SELECTION SWITCH: This

switch selects one of three video sync references:

• EXT V-DRIVE (up position): Selects the

external vertical drive pulse input on the rear

panel (EXT SYNC IN).

• EXT CAM (center position): Selects composite

video.

• AC LINE (down position): Selects the ac line

(as supplied).

4. SYNC PHASE ADJUSTMENT: Accessed

through the hole in the front panel of the power

supply, an adjustment screw adjusts the phase of

the sync pulse with respect to the selected

reference. When the sync test switch is set to

SET UP, a horizontal line displays on Monitor 1 to

show the location of the sync pulse with respect

to the picture.

5. +9Vdc AND –9Vdc LEDs: These green LEDs

light to indicate that dc voltages are present

(Note: For 240Vac systems, output voltages are

±8Vdc).

6. POWER ON/OFF SWITCH: This switch is used to

apply power to the bay. When in the ON position,

this switch lights up green.

Power Supply Rear Panel

Referring to Figure 9:

7. SERIAL # TAG: Serial number assigned to this

switching bay.

8. DATA LINE IN: Input for the data line.

9. DATA LINE OUT: Looping output for the data

line. This line must be terminated with a 75-ohm

terminator.

10. EXT. SYNC IN: Input for external vertical

synchronous pulse, either camera sync or an

externally created sync pulse.

11. EXT. SYNC OUT: Looping output for the vertical

synchronous pulse. This line must be terminated

with a 75-ohm terminator.

Video Input Module

Note: VIMs are installed, configured, and labeled

either in the factory or by a technician in the field.

As directed by the keyboard, an AD2016AVIM

(

Figure 10) selects which one of up to 16 video

inputs is used for display (primary switch). The video

path is shown on

Figure 11.

• Factory set jumpers on the VIM circuit board

identify the video input and output range for the

VIM.

• A camera symbol identifies the video inputs.

• A label next to the BNCs shows the input number

and a label at the top of the VIM shows the lowest

camera input for that VIM according to its location

within the bay(s).

A VIM can have one of four rear panels:

• AD2016AVIM-1: A VIM-1 has 16 rear panel BNC

connectors that receive video from a camera and

send it to the plug-in circuit board configured for

the video input/output ranges. The video is then

sent to the back plane.

Figure 11. Video path through VIM-1

• AD2016AVIM-2 and AD2016AVIM-3: As shown in

Figure 12, VIM-2 and -3s work together to create

16 video inputs. Each has eight rear panel video

input connectors to receive video input. The video

is sent to the plug-in circuit board factory

configured for the video input/output ranges and

then to the back plane.

- The VIM-2 has a 34-pin ribbon coax cable

connector that receives eight video inputs from

the VIM-3 in addition to its own eight inputs (for

a total of 16). The ribbon connector also sends

eight inputs from the VIM-2 to the VIM-3.

- The VIM-3 has two 34-pin ribbon coax cable

connectors: an IN connector to receive eight

video inputs from a VIM-2 and to send its own

eight inputs to the VIM-2 (for a total of 16), and

an OUT connector to expand its own eight

inputs and the eight inputs from the VIM-2 to

more monitor levels via a VIM-4.

• AD2016AVIM-4: Has two 34-pin ribbon cable

connectors (

Figure 12):

- An IN connector to receive the 16 video inputs

from a VIM-3.

- An OUT connector to expand the 16 inputs to

more monitor levels.

- The OUT connector is terminated with 75

ohms if the last in a series.

Configuring a VIM

CAUTION: A VIM circuit board can plug

into any unused slot that has a rear VIM

BNC panel. However, to install the system

efficiently and to facilitate troubleshooting,

ALWAYS

install VIMs in series beginning

at the right-most slot as viewed from the

rear of the bay.

CAUTION: The video input selection is

independent of the video output selection.

However, both inputs and outputs must be

selected correctly based on the slot the

VIM is plugged in to.

Set the VIM to identify the inputs and outputs it is to

respond to. The VIM has two 8-position switches: S1

and S3. Referring to

Figure 13, Table 4 and Table 5:

1. Remove the VIM from the bay.

2. Set switch S1 positions 1 and 2 to select one of

16 monitor levels (each containing 16 monitors).

The monitor level is determined by the bay’s

hierarchy within the matrix system.

3. Set switch S3 positions 1 and 2 for the

appropriate range of inputs in increments of 1024

(positions 3 through 8 are not used).

4. Set switch S1 positions 3 through 8 to narrow the

input selection to the VIM’s 16 inputs. The 16

inputs selected is determined by the VIM’s

location in the bay and the bay’s hierarchy within

the matrix system.

5. Plug the module into the right-most open VIM slot.

6. Repeat this procedure for the next VIM, if

required.

Data Buffer Module

The AD2010DB-01 data buffer (Figure 14) is used

when video must be amplified and sent externally to

a VOM(s) in another bay (see

Figure 15).

The data buffer:

• Amplifies video for up to 16 video inputs (but does

not provide a text overlay).

• Always inserts into the slot adjacent to the power

supply.

• Is labeled on its rear panel to reflect its camera

group when it is used to route video to VOMs in

another bay.

• Is not used for video coming internally from VIMs

in the bay the VOM resides. When the data buffer

is not used, a “Test/Expansion” label replaces the

output numbers on the rear panel.

• Filters the data line, if so configured. Filtering

reduces the number of data line switching packets

to improve switching speed in bays having only

VIMs. Filtering is rarely used and is not available

in expanded systems having over 1024 cameras.

Preconfigured systems have filtering set to OFF.

Note: An AD2010DBVL data buffer module with

video loss detection can be used instead in bays

used for the highest monitor level (see Appendix A

for description). When video loss detection is

desired, an RJ-45 jack used for communication with

the CPU replaces one BNC, reducing total video

outputs by one. See Appendix A.

Configuring a Data Buffer Module

The data buffer module has three switches: slide

switch S1, and 8-position switches S2 and S3 (see

Figure 16).

1. Remove the module from the bay.

2. Set switch S1 to NORMAL.

3. Set switch S2 positions 1 and 2 to turn the filter

on or off (

Table 6).

CAUTION: Turn the filter on only

when the bay in which it resides is

dedicated to VIMs! Turning the filter

on reduces AD data line switch

packets. If the BVOM is in the same

bay as the data buffer module

(signals sent internally), turn the filter

off to allow all switch packets to pass.

4. For each data line used, set switch S3 to

identify which camera group goes to which

monitor level (

Table 7).

5. Plug the module into the data buffer slot.

Video Output Module

The AD2024BVOM:

• As directed by the keyboard, acts as a

secondary switch by selecting which of its four

video outputs (A, B, C, or D) connects to the

video input selected by the VIM of a camera

group.

• Has jumpers on its circuit board that identify the

video input and output ranges for the BVOM.

• Adds titles and time/date characters to switched

video.

The video path through the BVOM is shown in

Figure 17.

Figure 17. Video path through BVOM

VOM-1 uses connections 1, 2, 3, and 13

VOM-3 uses connections 1–7, and 13

VOM-4 uses connections 1–13

BVOM front panel: Referring to

Figure 18:

• Controls adjust the brightness, vertical, and

horizontal position for titles displayed on each of

the four video outputs.

• Four-position rotary switch governs which

output to control.

• LED blinks to verify operation of the BVOM.
