User's Manual

TIP Blackmagic Universal Videohub 72 Crosspoint has amber colored LEDs mounted
inside the device that should only be visible when the heatsink is removed for
development purposes. However, in some cases a dim amber light may be visible
through the hole that has been drilled for the ‘alarm’ LED. This is not an error condition.
A healthy Universal Videohub 72 Crosspoint should display the following:
Red ‘alarm’ LED Off
Red ‘power overload’ LED Slowly blinking or off.
White ‘ref in’ LED Solid white or off
Installing Interface cards
Installing a Universal Videohub SDI Interface or Universal Videohub Optical Interface is easy
and the steps are the same for installing each type of interface card.
1 Hold the card in a vertical orientation with the identification LED at the top of the card.
The identification LED looks like a pin hole near the top left of the top connector.
2 Gently but firmly insert the card so that it follows its guides and plugs into the PCI slot
in the motherboard. Use a number 02 size Pozidriv screwdriver to secure the interface
card to the Universal Videohub frame.
See the ‘SDI Interface Card’ and ‘Universal Videohub Interface Cards’ sections for more
information on the different interface cards available for your Universal Videohub.
Installing a Universal Videohub 450W Power Card
The Universal Videohub 450W Power Card features three power connectors, which can be
connected to 150W power supply bricks for up to 450W of power. This power card is suitable
for powering a fully populated Universal Videohub 72 with two power supplies connected.
A third connected power supply provides failover redundancy should one power supply fail.
1 Ensure that the power supply is disconnected from any electrical source.
2 Orient the power card so that the MAIN POWER label appears at the top of the card.
3 Insert the power card into its slot on the motherboard. Use a number 02 size Pozidriv
screwdriver to secure the power card with its two screws.
4 Connect three Universal Videohub 150W Power Supplies.
If you need to remove or replace the power card, power off and disconnect all connected
power supplies before removing the power card.
