ADS6800 B2/C2 Installation and Operation Manual 1

Chapter 1

Introduction

OverviewThe ADS6800 B2 and C2 modules are audio delay synchronizers that

are often used for solving timing problems within a facility (forexample, integrating a non-synchronous digital island or compensatingfor fixed or variable path delays).

You can use multiple ADS6800 modules to provide a multi-framecascaded delay for use in virtual studio applications. For added audiocapabilities such as audio-tracking delay and hot-switching, use thesemodules in combination with other 6800 product modules (such as the

DES6800 , ENS6800 , VFS6800 , or HFS6800 ).ADS6800 B2 and C2 modules provide two AES digital audio inputsand outputs, as well as genlock and DARS reference inputs.

The following topics are described in this chapter:

Chapter 1: Introduction

Product Description

General DescriptionADS6800 B2 and C2 modules accept audio tracking delay and ahot-switching signal from 6800 video modules with synchronizers(DES6800 , ENS6800 , VFS6800 , and HFS6800 ).

The ADS6800 B2 and C2 audio synchronizers provide two AESdigital audio inputs and outputs in both balanced (ADS6800 B2) and

unbalanced (ADS6800 C2) forms, as well as genlock (internal orexternal) and DARS reference inputs. The ADS6800 B2 and C2reference inputs (located on the back connector) and the framesgenlock connector both provide a reference signal.

ADS6800 modules can be controlled locally (via card edge) orcontrolled and monitored remotely with CCS software applicationssuch as PilotLite, Pilot, and Navigator, or CCS-compliant remote

control panels and products.The back connectors for ADS6800 modules require two frame slotswithin a frame, and provide for balanced and unbalanced connections.

Typical Broadcast and Production ApplicationsBroadcast and production facilities can use ADS6800 B2 and C2

modules to solve audio sampling delay and synchronization problems.The insertion of a fixed and variable delay will ensure propersynchronization between picture and sound.

ADS6800 B2 and C2 modules can also be used for accurate audiotracking. They track the timing signal generated by various cards(DES6800 , ENS6800 , HFS6800 , and VFS6800 ), therebyincreasing the 6800 system capability.

Upgrading Module FirmwareFirmware upgrading is a routine procedure that you must perform toinstall newer versions of software on 6800 modules. Pilot, Co-Pilot, orNavigator software version 3.1.1 or later is required for this procedure.The frame must contain or be connected to another frame that containsan ICE6800 module.

When performing the upgrading procedure, check the appropriatereadme file to confirm which files are needed. Use care to ensure thatyou upload the correct files to the intended module.

In the unlikely event that the upgrade fails, the module may not respondto controls and will appear to be non-functional. In that event, followthe procedures described in Correcting a Failed Upgrade Procedureon page 22 .

Upgrading the Firmware in Boot Loader Mode

Upgrading the Firmware Using the Discovery Method

Follow these steps to upgrade a modules firmware:

1. Download the most recent appropriate upgrade package from ourWeb site or from your CD-ROM.

2. Remove the module from the 6800 frame.

Operating NotesWhen setting the control parameters on the ADS6800 , observe thefollowing: If you make changes to certain parameters, other related parameters

may also be affected. See the section Cross-Functional ParameterChanges on page 27 in this chapter for more information.

When you change a parameter, the effect is immediate. However,the module requires up to 20 seconds to save the latest change.After 20 seconds, the new settings are saved and will be restored if the module loses power and must be restarted.

You can connect up to four ADS6800 B2 and C2 modules to asingle data I/O chain using a maximum cable length of 984 ft (300m). T-connectors are recommended.

When reference video is applied to the module, expect amomentary audio disruption due to the locking process.

For AES11 compliance in 525 mode, the ADS6800 B2 and C2modules require the presence of a DARS signal locked to thereference video. Ensure that the DARS input on the back connector(either balanced or unbalanced) is connected to the appropriatesource. A DARS signal is not required for AES11 compliance in625 mode.

Note the following Tone frequencies:

Tone 1 : 750 Hz

Tone 2 : 1500 Hz

Tone 3 : 3000 Hz

Tone 4 : 6000 Hz

Delay control is not applicable when a tone is selected as a sourcefor an output channel.

ADS6800 B2 and C2 modules: In a Non-PCM mode of operation,audio sample rate conversion cannot be performed. The input audiomust be locked to the reference video of ADS6800 B2 and C2modules. If only one AES Input channel is switched to Non-PCM mode while the Track Video parameter is set to Yes , expect anaudio disruption on the other AES Input channel that is set to PCM mode due to the resetting of its audio timing.

N o t eBefore you select Genlockw/DARS , both the Genlock andDARS signals must be lockedtogether.

Recalling Default Parameter Settings


45/80


Recalling Default Parameter SettingsTable 3-8 on page 32 describes the parameter settings for theADS6800 B2 and C2 modules, including the original factory defaults.

To return these modules to their default settings, you can either reseteach parameter individually or do a global recall following thisprocedure:

1. Rotate the hex switch to 0.

2. Toggle the navigation switch to the bank number 0.

Use the control LEDs to verify which bank you have selected, oruse an available 6800 software control option (serial/local orEthernet/remote) to aid in confirming your bank selection.

3. Rotate the hex switch to the global recall parameter F .

4. Toggle the navigation switch to On.

Use an available 6800 software control option to aid in viewing,setting, and confirming the parameter value.

Reading Software and Hardware VersionsThe current software version of your ADS6800 B2 and C2 modulescan only be viewed using a CCS-enabled control panel or a CCSsoftware application, such as Pilot or Pilot Lite. See your

Common Problems and Suspected Failures
http://www.leitch.com/http://www.leitch.com/


65/80


Pilot Lite Fails to Communicate with Installed ModulesConfirm that the following items are not the reason for thecommunication failure:

Proper module slot has not been specified ( Pilot Lite is notcommunicating with the appropriate slot). See your FR6802+Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information onslot identification.

COM port is used elsewhere ( Pilot Lite is not communicatingwith the correct COM port).

Actual Slot ID and Frame ID do not match with the two DIP switchsettings in back of frame ( Pilot Lite is not communicating with theappropriate slot and frame). See your FR6802+ Frame Installationand Operation Manual for more information on Slot ID and FrameID DIP switch settings.

ICE6800 module is installed in the frame ( Pilot Lite control isdisabled if an ICE6800 module is installed in the frame;ICE6800 modules are used for CCS control).

Pilot Lite Does Not Find All Modules in FrameIf a discovery is started too soon after frame power-up, Pilot Lite willnot find all the installed modules. Refresh Pilot Lite ( File > Refresh ),and ensure that installed modules are fully powered-up first beforediscovery.

Pilot Lite or CCS Software Application Not RespondingPilot Lite and CCS applications cannot run on the same PC at the

same time. Both applications can be installed, but only one can beopened at a time.


Pilot Lite Cannot Control a Module Showingin the Control Window

Consider these questions:


66/80


Consider these questions:

Did you physically configure the module for local control? If so,configure the device for remote control.

Is the module properly seated in the frame? Check the positioningof the module in its slot in the frame.

Does the Control window indicate the device is ready? Thedevice may be powered off or disconnected from the network.

Pilot Lite Status Bar Reports Not ReadyPilot Lite reports each devices connection status in the status bar. If

the connection status message reads Not Ready, check the following:

Is the module properly seated in the frame? Check the position of the module in the frame.

Is the frame connected to the network? Check the devices network connection.

If the status bar still reports no status or Not Ready for the frame ordevice, try restarting Pilot Lite.

CCS Software Application or Remote Control Panel Does

Not Communicate with ModuleCCS software applications (such as Pilot, CoPilot, and Navigator) andremote control panels require the purchase and installation of anICE6800 module in an FR6802 frame in order to communicateremotely via Ethernet.

Alarm Query Fails When a Device RebootsWhen you reboot a device connected to your PC, the alarm traffichitting the network may cause an alarm query request to time out andfail. While the query does not automatically retry, it will post an Alarmquery failed message to the Diagnostics window.

To clear an Alarm query failed message, right-click insidethe Diagnostics window, and then select Refresh from the resulting

context menu.


Frames Fail to Communicate with the PC after a PowerFailure

Have you exited the software application and restarted the PC since the


67/80


y ppframe recovered from its power failure? To restore communicationsbetween the PC and the frames, ensure that the frames have three ormore minutes to recover from the power failure before you exit theapplication and restart the PC.

Module Does Not Seem to Work

Although the following troubleshooting tips may seem obvious, pleasetake the time to ensure the following:

All appropriate rear connections are securely made.

The board is securely installed (with no bent pins).

The frame is turned on.
