Operators Safety Summary

The general safety information in this summary is for operating personnel.

Do Not Remove Covers or Panels There are no user-serviceable parts within the unit. Removal of the top cover will expose dangerous voltages.

To avoid personal injury, do not remove the top cover. Do not operate the unit without the cover installed.

Power Source This product is intended to operate from a power source that will not apply more than 230 volts rms between the supply conductors

or between both supply conductor and ground. A protective ground connection by way of grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe

operation.

Grounding the Product This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power cord. To avoid electrical shock, plug the power

cord into a properly wired receptacle before connecting to the product input or output terminals. A protective-ground connection by way of the

grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.

Use the Proper Power Cord Use only the power cord and connector specified for your product. Use only a power cord that is in good condition.

Refer cord and connector changes to qualified service personnel.

Use the Proper Fuse To avoid fire hazard, use only the fuse having identical type, voltage rating, and current rating characteristics. Refer fuse

replacement to qualified service personnel.

Do Not Operate in Explosive Atmospheres To avoid explosion, do not operate this product in an explosive atmosphere.

Terms In This Manual

WARNING Highlights an operating procedure, practice, condition, statement, etc., which, if not strictly observed, could result in injury to or death of

personnel. NOTE Highlights an essential operating procedure, condition or statement.

CAUTION The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and

maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literatureaccompanying the appliance.

WARNING The rear panel ON/OFF switch does not disconnect the unit from input AC power. To facilitate disconnection of AC power, the power cord

must be connected to an accessible outlet near the unit. Building Branch Circuit Protection: For 115 V use 20 A, for 230 V use 8 A.

WARNING When the RGB-144 is used in the 230-volt mode, a UL listed line cord rated for 250 volts at 15 amps must be used and must conform to

IEC-227 and IEC-245 standards. This cord will be fitted with a tandem prong-type plug.

NOTE This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These

limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which

case the user will be required to correct the interference at the users own expense.

INTRODUCTION

The RGB - 144 is the world’s first configurable Distribution Amplifier (D/A). Four independent 1 x 4 D/A’s

are integrated within the 3RU chassis. What makes the RGB-144 unique is the ability to bridge adjacent

1x4 blocks to make a larger D/A.

In it’s default configuration, the RGB-144’s four 1x4 D/A’s operate independently. By simply flipping the

bridge switches, adjacent 1x4 D/A’s are bridged together and the input of the first block is sent to all of the

bridged outputs allowing many different configurations to suit your signal distribution needs.

Possible configurations include: four 1x4 D/A’s; one 1x8, and two 1 x 4 D/A’s; two 1x8 D/A’s; one 1x12,

and one 1x4 D/A’s; and one 1x16 D/A. To insure the highest possible signal quality, all outputs are fully

buffered, and the measured bandwidth, from input to any output, is greater than 350MHz with a flat signal

response.

The RGB-144’s universal sync inputs support both analog and TTL level sync of either polarity. Advanced

sync detection circuitry accurately slices the input sync signal independent of amplitude and offset to

provide a stable, jitter-free output even in noisy environments.

The RGB-144’s extended bandwidth makes it compatible with all computer video resolutions from

workstations, PC’s, notebooks, or Mac’s as well as scalers and line doublers. In addition, each of the

RGB inputs may be used independently or in concert to distribute composite, component, and S-video. A

universal power supply extends the RGB-144 s compatibility to the world.

CONNECTING THE UNIT

DESCRIPTION OF INPUTS AND OUTPUTS

All video input and output connections are BNC female chassis mount connectors. They will accept a

variety of video input types. The power cord entry accepts the supplied IEC power cordset at 110/220

VAC 50/60 Hz. Typical configuration options are illustrated on the following pages.

Video Input Connections

The video input section on the RGB-144 rear panel provides up to four universal inputs. Each input can

accept composite (NTSC/PAL), s-video, component (RGB, Betacam (Y, Pb, Pr)), and computer video

signals. The connections for each input channel are made via five BNC connectors. Connection points for

each type of video signal are specified below.
