Please refer to Figure-2b on the following page to familiarize yourself with the rear panel features of the RM-3358W unit. The
following sections describe these features and are referenced, by letter, to Figure-2b. See Figure-2c on page 10 for a top view of
the RM-3358W showing rear panel connector clearance dimensions.
Note about options: Figure-2b shows an RM-3358W rear panel with each of the two optional SDI Input Modules (RMSDI-1
and RMSDI-2) installed in channels 1 and 2 and no option installed in channel 3. The SDI Input Modules may be installed in any
combination (one per display). The installed options are selected for monitoring by pressing the associated VIDEO B/OPTION
Button on the front panel (Item 2, page 8). For each section with an SDI Input Module installed, the CVBS Loop-Through
Connector (Item C) will output CVBS signals as converted from the SDI input. In any I/O section with an SDI Input Module
option installed, the "B" CVBS Input BNC connector should NOT be used, and it is recommended that it be covered with a
connector cap to prevent its use.
Rear Panel Features
Section 2: Operation
Termination Switch (1A - 3A, 1B - 3B)
This switch terminates the CVBS Input Connector as required by your configuration. If you supply downstream
equipment from the CVBS Loop-Through Connector (Item C), then set this switch to the Hi-Z position. If not, set
this switch to the 75
position.
CVBS Input (IN) Connector (1A - 3A, 1B - 3B)
CVBS video signals may be connected at these BNC connectors. NTSC or PAL standards are accommodated automatically. If
signals are connected at both the "A" and "B" inputs within the same I/O section, use the A/B Source Select Switch (Item 2, page
8) to select between the two. Note: If an SDI Input Module is installed in a given section, do NOT use that "B" CVBS input.
CVBS Loop-Through (OUT) Connector (1A - 3A, 1B - 3B)
Signal-through connections to downstream equipment are supplied at these BNC connectors. If you supply downstream
equipment from these connectors, ensure that you set the appropriate Termination Switch (Item A) according to your
configuration. Note that if an SDI Input Module (Item G) is installed in the same I/O section, this connector outputs a
CVBS signal as converted from the SDI Input Connector (Item Gc).
Option Connector (1-3)
This DE9 (9-pin) female connector allows you easily install an optional SDI Input Module (Item G).
Tally Control Connector
This 25-pin subminiature female “D” connector allows you to use the four front panel Tally Indication LEDs (Item 5,
page 8). Full connection instructions are described on pages 17 and 18.
Power Connector
Attach the supplied 110/220-12V external power supply between this connector and mains power.
Optional SDI Input Modules (RMSDI-1 and RMSDI-2)
There are two models of optional SDI Input Module; the RMSDI-1 and RMSDI-2. They are identical except that the
RMSDI-1 does not feature a SDI Output Connector (Item Gb) and must use the 525/625 Select Switch (Item Ge) to
select the NTSC/PAL format of the input signal (the RMSDI-2 does this automatically).
Note: See Figure-2c on page 14 for depth clearance dimensions of RM-3358W when RMSDI option modules are installed.
CVBS Output (Converted From SDI Input) Connector
When an SDI Input Module (RMSDI-1 or RMSDI-2) is installed, this connector outputs CVBS signals as
converted from the SDI Input Connector (Item Gc). If this output is NOT used, set the associated Termination
Switch (Item A) to 75
Ω.
SDI Output Connector (RMSDI-2 Only)
SDI signal-through connections to down-stream equipment are supplied at this BNC connector. This connector
supplies a reclocked replica of the SDI input signal.
SDI Input Connector
Connect SDI signals to this female BNC connector, which is terminated at 75Ω.
SDI Lock Indication LED (GREEN)
When a valid (and locked) SDI signal is received at the SDI Input Connector (Item Gc) this LED lights GREEN.
525/625 (NTSC/PAL) Select Switch (RMSDI-1 Only)
On the RMSDI-1 (only), this switch is used to manually select for NTSC (525 line) or PAL (625 line) input signals.
Set the switch to the RIGHT to select PAL (625 lines), to the LEFT to select NTSC (525 lines).
