Kaleido-X16

Hardware Description & Installation Manual

Monitoring the Temperature of the Kaleido-X16

For optimal performance, it is strongly recommended that you operate the Kaleido-X16 multiviewer in an environment with an ambient temperature between 0 °C and 40 °C.

IMPORTANT

When measuring the ambient room temperature, take your readings from directly in front of the Kaleido-X16 frame.

There are two factors that could influence airflow inside the frame: altitude and airflow obstruction on the sides of the unit.

Power Supplies

Power supply for the Kaleido-X16 frame

The Kaleido-X16 frame is powered by dual redundant, current-sharing power supply units

(PSUs). The PSUs are installed and removed from the front of the frame and are hotswappable, so that a defective supply may be replaced without removing the Kaleido-X16 frame from service. When facing the front of the frame, the PSU on the left side is referred to as PSU A and the PSU on the right side is PSU B.

IMPORTANT

If your frame has only one PSU, it must be installed in Slot A (left side of frame)

There are two power supplies: an operational PSU and a redundant PSU. The system operates with a single PSU. If you choose to have only one PSU installed in your Kaleido-X16 frame, you should do the following:

• Clear the PSU B Installed check box for this Kaleido-X16 frame in XAdmin

(see the “Configuring Power Supply Redundancy on the Kaleido-X16” section in the Getting Started chapter of the Kaleido-X User’s Manual).

• Install the single PSU (PSU A) in Slot A (the left side of the frame when

facing the front of the frame) (see Installing a Power Supply , on page 8).

Access the power supplies by removing the front cover of the frame. Viewed from the front of the frame, the PSUs are located on the left-hand and right-hand sides of the frame:

Removing a Power Supply

To remove a power supply

1 Open the front cover of the frame and locate the power supply (PSU) you would like to remove (either the left or the right side).

2 Pull on the handle on the right side of the PSU and pull the PSU out of the frame.

Installing a Power Supply

To install a power supply

1 Position the power supply (PSU) in front of an empty power supply slot in front of the frame, with the connector end towards the frame and the PSU handle on the right side.

2 Slide the PSU into the empty slot, moving it gently until it contacts the sockets at the rear of the slot.

3 Push firmly but gently on the PSU faceplate until the PSU’s connectors have mated with the frame's sockets, and the PSU will go in no further.

Powering up the Kaleido-X16

Separate AC power sockets serve the two power supplies. On the rear of the frame, connect both power sockets of the Kaleido-X16 to an appropriate power source using the supplied power cords.

As seen from the rear of the frame:

• The left power socket is for PSU B.

• The right power socket is for PSU A.

Kaleido-X16

Hardware Description & Installation Manual

Power socket for PSU B Power socket for PSU A

IMPORTANT

• A Kaleido-X16 multiviewer can draw 4.0 amps of current. Ensure that the circuit to which the frame is connected can handle that load, and that of any other connected devices.

• If you only have one PSU, make sure you plug your power cable into the power connector on the right side of the rear connector panel (as you face the rear of the frame). This should be on the same side of the frame as the one PSU you have installed. If you do not do this, your system cannot draw power.

• If you have two PSUs, make sure you plug in both power cables into both power connectors of the rear connector panel. If you do not do this your system cannot have PSU redundancy.

To power up the Kaleido-X16

1 Plug the power cord(s) from the Kaleido-X16 into a grounded power outlet.

2 Push the power button at the front of the frame (behind the front cover).

Power button

The startup sequence takes a couple of minutes, during which time some video may appear on the displays. The startup is completed when the CPU LED is solid green.

Ventilation

The Kaleido-X16 multiviewer is cooled by ventilation intakes located on the front of the frame. Fans are located in key positions within the frame:

Kaleido-X16 Installation

Ventilation

10

Air flow through the Kaleido-X16 frame

Frame Cooling Fans

Air intake for the multiviewer is handled by six fans located near the front of the frame and two heat sinks near the rear of the frame. The fans draw air into the frame through a grille and filter in the front cover. The heat sinks help to exhaust air out through grates on either side (see diagram, above).

IMPORTANT

The Kaleido-X16 multiviewer requires a constant flow of cooling air during operation. DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT IF THESE FANS ARE NOT WORKING. If a fan is not working contact your next level of support.

Power Supply Cooling Fan

Each PSU has one fan located on its front. Each PSU draws air through the frame’s front grille, through the PSU, then out to the closest rear fan to be exhausted out the side of the frame (see diagrams, above and below):

PSU fan on front of PSU A

Air Filter

Cooling air drawn into the Kaleido-X16 frame by the ventilating fans passes through a filter located behind a grille in the front cover of the frame.

For more information about cleaning the air filter, see Cleaning the Air Filter , on page 21.

RS-422

The Kaleido-X16 supports two RS-422 serial inputs over RJ-45 connectors. These inputs allow the Kaleido-X16 to connect to external serial devices such as a router, production switcher, or router controller.

Note: The Kaleido-X16’s two RS-422 ports each have an RJ-45 connector in order to preserve space on a busy panel. The RS-422 interface specifies a

DE-9 connector, so if you are using this interface, you will require a

DE-9-to-RJ-45 adapter. Grass Valley supplies two adapter models, correctly wired for this application: a straight adapter (part no. 1737-3000-102), and a crossover adapter (part no. 1792-3700-100).

The pinout for the RS-422 signals on the Kaleido-X16’s RJ-45 connectors, and the wiring diagrams for the appropriate adapters, are shown here:

information about RS-422 serial connections, see “Serial Connections” in the “Routers” chapter of the Kaleido-X User’s Manual.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Air Filter

Occasionally, the air filter has to be cleaned in order to maintain proper ventilation. The air filter is located in the front cover of the Kaleido-X16 frame. The filter may be cleaned without removing it from the cover.

To clean the air filter

1 Carefully remove the cover from the frame.

IMPORTANT

Risk of damage to CompactFlash card

Be careful not to damage the CompactFlash card as you remove the front cover of the frame. Lift the cover directly away from the frame (i.e.: not up or down).

2 Place the cover flat on a work surface with the inside facing up.

3 Using a vacuum cleaner with a brush nozzle to prevent scratching, vacuum the dust from the inner side of the cover.

4 Turn the cover over and vacuum the outer side of it.

5 Reinstall the cover onto the frame.

Disposal and Recycling Information

Your Grass Valley equipment comes with at least one lithium button battery (Li-MnO

2

) located on the main printed circuit board. The batteries are used for backup and should not need to be replaced during the lifetime of the equipment.

Before disposing of your Grass Valley equipment, please remove the battery as follows:

1 Make sure the AC adapter is unplugged from the power outlet.

2 Remove the protective cover from your equipment.

3 Gently remove the battery from its casing using a blunt instrument for leverage such as a screwdriver if necessary.

4 Dispose of the battery and equipment according to your local environmental laws and guidelines.

WARNING

Be careful not to short-circuit the batteries by adhering to the appropriate safe handling practices. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may explode if damaged or overheated. Do not dispose of batteries as household waste. Do not dismantle, open or shred batteries.

Keep batteries out of the reach of children.

The electrolyte of the batteries contains 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) (CAS

110-71-4, EINECS 203-794-9) above 0.1% by weight. DME is listed as a

Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) by the regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council. It is classified as a reprotoxic of category 2 in the European Union. Accordingly, exposure to DME may impair fertility and may cause harm to the unborn child. DME is also classified as harmful by inhalation.

31

Disposal and Recycling Information

WARNING (continued)

Risk of exposure occurs only if the battery is mechanically or electrically abused. The most likely risk is acute exposure when a cell vents. In the event of a battery leak, do not allow battery liquid to come in contact with skin or eyes. Seek medical help immediately in case of ingestion, inhalation, skin or eye contact, or suspected exposure to the contents of an opened battery.

For more information about recycling, please contact Grass Valley.
