1 Kaleido-X16 Installation Power Supplies 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 hot-swappable, 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.
Kaleido-X16 Hardware Description & Installation Manual PSU A removed from Slot A Slot A Slot B PSU slot locations Two PSUs installed in a frame; front cover removed Removing a Power Supply To remove a power supply, do the following: 1. Open the front door 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.
1 Kaleido-X16 Installation Operation Operation 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. Power socket for PSU B IMPORTANT: Power socket for PSU A A Kaleido-X16 frame can draw 4.0 amps of current.
Kaleido-X16 Hardware Description & Installation Manual Frame Cooling Fans Air intake for the frame 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 door. The heat sinks help to exhaust air out through grates on either side (see diagram, above). IMPORTANT: The Kaleido-X16 frame requires a constant flow of cooling air during operation.

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.
1 Kaleido-X16 Installation Maintenance 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-9S connector, so if you are using this interface, you will require a DE-9S-to-RJ-45 adapter cable. Miranda supplies such a cable, correctly wired for this application (Miranda part no. 1737-3000-102).
Kaleido-X16 Hardware Description & Installation Manual To clean the air filter, do the following: 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.

2 Peripheral Equipment Configuration Configuration Before you can use your Kaleido-RCP2 to operate your Kaleido-X16 system, you must set up the Ethernet connection between the two devices. Note: The Kaleido-RCP2 is powered through its RJ-45 Ethernet connector (a PoE connection). However, the Kaleido-X16 frame does not feed power through its Ethernet connections. To power the Kaleido-RCP2, you must therefore source power from a separate device with a compatible PoE Ethernet connection.

Kaleido-X16 Hardware Description & Installation Manual ABT-128A rear panel layout ABT-64A rear panel layout Connections Audio Inputs The number and configuration of the audio inputs depends on the specific model of ABT you are using. Reference Input (Looped Through) An external reference signal is required to synchronize the SDTI outputs. An analog video reference signal, word clock or AES-75 signal can be connected to one of the REFERENCE SIGNAL connectors.
2 Peripheral Equipment Ethernet/Power The Serial Digital Transport Interface (SDTI) uses the Serial Digital Interface (SDI) developed to transport digital video signals as a carrier for other data types. It requires that the transmitter and receiver have the same codec. Ethernet/Power The power for the ABT arrives on an RJ-45 connector, and shares this connector with an Ethernet interface. The ABT conforms to the IEEE 802.

The odd channel will be a 1 kHz sine wave at -18 dBFS with a period of silence lasting 250 ms every 3 seconds. The even channel will be a continuous 1 kHz sine wave at -18 dBFS.
2 Peripheral Equipment Web Interface • The 0 dBFS level parameters are available for an ABT with analog inputs. They allow the adjustment of the 0 dBFS level for each input. The number of inputs depends on the model. In the case where all inputs must be set to the same level, click Yes beside Set all levels using CH 1. The changes take effect when you click Apply.
Kaleido-X16 Hardware Description & Installation Manual Normally the DHCP server provides at least the following basic information: IP address, subnet mask and default gateway. When Enabled is chosen, the static network parameters become unavailable. IMPORTANT: When DHCP is enabled, the Audio Bridge Terminal will try to obtain an IP address dynamically after booting/rebooting.
2 Peripheral Equipment Firmware Updates Information Web Page Information Web page The Information Web page gives model and version information. • The model is made up of “ABT-” followed by the number of channels and the letter A for analog inputs or D for AES inputs. • The serial number is the serial number of this ABT unit. • The firmware version is the current firmware version. The device connected to this ABT will check the version before updating the firmware.
