1. 1 2 2 Installation Your new system is shipped in a special packing which protects the units against mechanical shock during transit Care should be exercised when unpacking so that the surfaces do not get marred Check the condition of the equipment for signs of shipping damage If there should be any complaints you should immediately notify the forwarding agent and your nearest Studer distributor Please retain the original packing material because it offers the best protection in case your equipment ever needs to be transported Primary Voltage Power Connection gt P Earthing gt Thermal Considerations Principal Rule Document generated 18 03 15 The power supply units are auto ranging they can be used for mains voltages in a range of 90 to 264 VAC 47 to 63 Hz The attached female IEC 320 C13 mains cable sockets have to be connected to appropriate mains cables by a trained technician respecting your local regulations Refer to the Installation Operation and Waste Disposal chapter at the beginning of this document This equipment must be earthed due to the mains input filter network being connected to the mains earth Some consideration must be given to the earthing arrangement of the system at the center of which is the frame The frame is earthed to the mains earth via the power supply The unit must not be used in conditions of excessive heat or cold near any source of moisture in excessivel
2. This is an important setting The Core Version must match the actual Core HW as the load balancing of the Session Configuration Tool is set to this specific core size This means that when this setting is not matching the actua HW core the VMC configuration might not run at all By going to the Tree or Shared view and by right clicking on the parameter Core Version the appropriate version can be chosen There is a new N X channel bus structure for the Infinity Core The N X bus now requires a master channel as other busses do e g Aux or Mst This N X master channel can be chosen amongst all other channel types It is available in mono and stereo So each N X bus needs a N X master channel No VSP panners are currently available for the Infinity Core There is a process which can be started with a batch file that needs to run on the Vista desk in order to be able to load new configs into the Infinity Core Further details see in the Vista Operating Instructions chapter 6 Session Configuration Tool Infinity Core 21 Infinity Core STUDER 2 9 Vista Surveyor Information VMC Config Mixer Config Infinity Cores Inout Output hardware 22 Infinity Core The status of the Infinity Core can be monitored through the Surveyor tool on the Vista console The core specific information shown in the Surveyor tool is explained in this chapter Surveyor ea a System Overview Ee VISTA Release 5 2 02 rc2 Bui
3. The Sync source of the Infinity core is always provided by a D23m frame The Sync signal of the D23m system is etiher internally generated by one of the D23m frames or an external sync signal is connected to one of the D23m frames The sync signal is then transmitted to the core via A Link All other frames will be synced from the core via their audio interface MADI or A Link The D23m system is able to connect to external sync sources to be synchro nised Following sync sources can be used Video e Word Clock AES EBU e A Link main or redundant For Video 50 Hz 59 94 Hz and 60 Hz are supported For all other sync sources 48 kHz 96 kHz 44 1 kHz and 88 2 kHz are supported An automatic process is employed to look for the best possible sync source This process has the following rules 1 External Clocks have higher priorities then internal clocks 2 The priorities of the external sync signals are in this order 1 Video reference 2 Word clock 3 AES EBU 4 A Link 3 The lowest A Link portnumber on the core has the highest priority 4 Once a switchover to a different sync source has occured the system will automatically switch back to the original source as soon as this sync signal is restored If the D23m system consists of multiple frames and a redundant Infinity core system the above process provides an audio clock redundancy If the D23m frame which is the sync source fails the system will switch
4. e The admissible ambient temperature range for operation of the semicon ductor components is 0 C to 70 C commercial temperature range for operation The air flow through the installation must provide that the outgoing air is always cooler than 70 C Average heat increase of the cooling air shall be about 20 K allowing for an additional maximum 10 K increase at the hot components e In order to dissipate 1 kW with this admissible average heat increase an air flow of 2 65 m min is required Arack dissipating P 800 W requires an air flow of 0 8 2 65 m min which corresponds to 2 12 m min Ifthe cooling function of the installation must be monitored e g for fan failure or illumination with spot lamps the outgoing air temperature must be measured directly above the modules at several places within the rack The trigger temperature of the sensors should be 65 C to 70 C The unsealed system parts connector areas and semiconductor pins allow for a minute formation of ice or frost However formation of dew visible to the naked eye will already lead to malfunctions In practice reliable opera tion can be expected in a temperature range above 15 C if the following general rule is considered for putting the cold system into operation If the air within the system is cooled down the relative humidity rises If it reaches 100 condensation will arise usually in the boundary layer between the air and a cooler surf
