Data Buffer Module - 2010DB
The Data Buffer Module serves a dual purpose. First, it
distributes switched video, from the bay's Video Input
Modules, to other bays in multiple bay systems. The video
observed from these outputs contain no character information,
only standard video.
The second purpose of the Data Buffer is to filter incoming
system information from the DATA LINE. Filtering is
performed to allow for the passage of localized information.
The 2010DB rear panel has 16 video output BNC's for
connection to Video Output Modules in other switching bays.
The illustrations in Figures 3 through 8 show the various types
of rear panels of the Data Buffer module.
See Appendix Figure A22 for illustration of interconnection
from these modules to the Video Output Modules.

Video Loss Detection Data Buffer Module - 2010DBVL
The Video Loss Detector Data Buffer Module provides the
same capabilities as the 2010DB Data Buffer Module, with one
significant addition. First, it distributes switched input video,
with no character information, to multiple bay systems. It also
filters incoming information from the DATA LINE to allow for
the passage of localized information.
The additional function of this module is to detect the presence
of a video signal for each camera input. Each module can
detect video loss for a maximum of 256 cameras. For a full
matrix switching system of 1024 cameras, four 2010DBVL
modules are required, one for each block of 256 cameras.
The 2010DBVL module must be placed in the matrix
switching bay that is connected to the highest numbered
monitor output, and this bay must contain Video Input
Modules. The 2010DBVL cannot be used in a switching bay
that does not include Video Input Modules.
Front Panel
The front panel of the 2010DBVL provides indicator LED's
that illuminate if a video or sync loss is detected, and indicate
the SYNC and VIDEO content of the video input signal being
monitored. See Figure 9 for location of these LED's.
Rear Panels
The 2010DBVL rear panel has 15 video output BNC's for
connection to Video Output Modules, and one 8-pin, RJ45 RS-
232 connector for Video Loss Detection data output and Alarm
Contact output to an Alarm Interface Unit. Figures 9 through
15 show the various types of rear panels of the Video Loss
Detector Data Buffer module.
Icon Definition: The icons on the rear panels are the
video/interconnect symbol for connecting switched video
among the matrix switching bays.
Switched video inputs from cameras 1 to 256.
Switched video inputs from cameras 257 to 512.
Switched video inputs from cameras 513 to 768.

When a video loss is detected, a video loss message is
transmitted from the 2010DBVL via the RJ45 connector RS-
232 pins. An alarm contact is also provided by pins 1 and 2 of
this connector. The connector pin definitions are as follows.
RJ45 Connector Pin Definitions
Pin Function (RS-232 Code)
1 Alarm Contact Output
2 Alarm Ground
4 Receive Data (RCD)
5 Transmit Data (XMIT)
7 Ground (GND)
The RS-232 pins are connected to an RS-232 port, on the
1996A CPU, which is set for VIDEO LOSS use. The RS-232
port can be connected using the supplied cable (JJ0007) if the
distance between the 2010DBVL and the CPU is less than 7
feet.
If the distance exceeds 7 feet, or if the Alarm Contact output is
used, an 8-pin Terminal Box (HP0047) is provided for
connections. The Terminal Box is connected to the
2010DBVL RS-232 port with the supplied JJ0007 cable. The
maximum cable length between an RS-232 device and the
Terminal Box is 1000 feet, using 18-AWG shielded, computer
grade cable.
All American Dynamics equipment is configured as RS-232
DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) devices. For DTE-to-DTE
connection to the 2010DBVL Terminal Box:
- the XMIT pin of the 1996 port is connected to RCD (pin
4) of the 2010DBVL Terminal Box.
- the RCD pin of the 1996 port is connected to XMIT (pin
5) of the 2010DBVL Terminal Box.
- the Ground of the 1996 port is connected to GND (pin 7)
of the 2010DBVL Terminal Box.
Pins 1 and 2 provide a logic-level alarm closure, in accordance
with the Alarm Contact mode set for the module (see page 13).
These pins are connected to the alarm contact inputs of a 2096
Alarm Interface Unit, pin 1 to “A” input and pin 2 to ground.
Where multiple 2010DBVL modules are used, a 1981 port
expander is used to connect these modules to the 1996A CPU.
The 2010DBVL-1x module must be connected to port A of the
1981, 2010DBVL-2x to port B, 2010DBVL-3x to port C, and
2010DBVL-4x to port D. Video loss detection will not operate
unless all modules are connected to the 1996A CPU.
Typical connections of the 2010DBVL module are illustrated
in the Appendix, Figures A18 to A21.

Master Date Time Module - 2024MDT
The 2024MDT Master Date Time Module provides looping
connection of the video input signals and insertion of system
time and date information on the video output connections.
These modules are used with dedicated inputs for dedicated
outputs, and do not perform any inter-bay switching.
The 2024MDT has four looping video inputs and four separate
video outputs with system time and date information.
Front Panel
The 2024MDT front panel controls the brightness, vertical, and
horizontal position for each title displayed on each of the four
video outputs. The 4-position rotary switch governs which
output is selected for control. The LED blinks to verify proper
operation of the 2024MDT. The front panel controls operate
identical to those on the 2024VOM module, see Figure 20 on
page 9. Further details on operation of these controls is
provided in the Video Output Module SETUP description,
page 17.
Rear Panels
The 2024MDT rear panel, shown in Figure 23, has 12 BNC
connectors and handles four separate video input channels: A,
B, C, and D. The bottom four BNC's are video outputs which
contain time and date information from the system Data Line
interface. The upper four groups of BNC's are for video inputs
from matrix switching bays and looping outputs to other video
equipment, such as VCR's. Each BNC pair in the upper groups
is an unterminated looping connection.
Video inputs to the 20204MDT module may be connected to
either of the input pair of BNC's for each input channel. If the
video is terminated in the 2024 module, and not looped to
additional equipment via the paired BNC, a 75-ohm
terminating cap must be connected to the paired input BNC.
75-ohm terminating caps are supplied for the looping BNC
connectors.
If any video input is looped to another video device, ensure
that the line is terminated properly in 75 ohms.
The video output connections from the bottom four BNC's on
each 2024 module must be terminated in 75 ohms.
Setup Switches
The 2024MDT module PCB card contains jumpers that are set
to identify the monitors that the video output is being directed
to. These are factory set for monitors one, two, three, and four.

INSTALLATION
Mounting
Bays are manufactured for standard 19-inch rack mounting and
have a rack height of 10 1/2-inches, or one rack wide by 6
racks high. Bays must be installed with a minimum of 1 3/4-
inch clearance between each bay (one rack unit). It is the
responsibility of the installer to insure proper airflow around
the bays to provide adequate ventilation.
In multiple bay configurations, identify the various bays
carefully before mounting. In all multiple bay systems, place
the video inputs near the top of the racks.
Power Sources
System model AD2050R is configured for use with a 120VAC,
50/60 Hz primary power source. Model ADS2050RX is
configured for a 230VAC, 50/60 Hz primary power source.
All 120 V units are supplied with a pendant, 3-wire cord and
plug for mating to the primary source outlet. All 230 V units
are supplied with a Euro style IEC type inlet. A suitable
detachable cord should be connected between the IEC 320
inlet and the power source. The cord should conform to all
national and local use code requirements.
DO NOT PHYSICALLY CONNECT
EQUIPMENT TO THE POWER SOURCE UNTIL
"POWER UP"
PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED.
Read the section on POWERING UP (page 19) before
connecting the system to the power source, and check the
various System Configurations shown in the Appendix.
Connections
All system connections are made on the rear panels of the
system bays. Connections for several typical System
Configurations are described in pages 20 through 47. See the
Appendix for illustrations of various system connections.
Note: Make all internal jumper switch settings on the
modules before system connections are started (see SETUP,
pages 12 - 18). Be certain that all connections are properly
completed before applying power.
All video connections should be made using a good grade, 75-
ohm, RG-59U video cable (i.e., Belden 8241 or equivalent)
with BNC connectors.
All video outputs must be terminated in 75 ohms at the last
unit in the run. Set the intermediate units to HiZ. If the video
run is not terminated, or if it is double terminated, the resulting
picture will be of poor quality. If the run is not terminated a
brighter picture than desired will be displayed. Conversely, if
the run is double terminated, a darker picture than desired will
be displayed.
Each installation should be made in a planned and orderly
manner. The operation of each piece of equipment should be
confirmed as early as possible during the installation
procedure. It is much easier to remove a few temporary
terminations, or connections, after a confirmation check than it
is to disconnect and re-wire a large number of "permanent"
connections.
To facilitate maintenance and assist in service, all connecting
cables should be identified with source/destination numbers.

SETUP - Internal Jumper Switches
Data Buffer Module Switches
The 2010DB Data Buffer Module serves a dual purpose. First,
it sends video to the monitors and second, it filters incoming
information from the high speed LAN line.
Filtering is accomplished with two 8-position DIP switches, S2
and S3. Switch position 1 of switch S2 turns the filter "ON" or
"OFF." If S2 is set to"ON", all information passes and S3 does
not have to be set. If S2 is set to "OFF", only specified
information passes and S3 must be set. The S3 switch allows
only the necessary information to pass for that particular bay.
In the Condensed Bay configuration, or when a bay
contains 2024VOM monitor modules, the filter is set such
that all information passes. Therefore, position 1 of switch
S2 is set to ON.
For all other configurations the filter is set such that
information is filtered, thus position 1 of switch S2 is set to
OFF and S3 must be set accordingly. This applies to bays
which contain only 2016 VIM camera modules.
The Data Buffer Module also has a 2-position slide switch, S1.
S1 switches the card into either a normal mode or test mode.
S1 should be kept at the normal position.
Figure 25 shows the location of these switches on the 2010DB
PCB card.

SETUP
Video Loss Detector Data Buffer Module Switches
The 2010DBVL (Video Loss Detector Data Buffer Module) is
similar to the 2010DB, with the added capability of video loss
detection for each camera of the bay. A video loss detection
message is transmitted via the RJ45 port on the 2010DBVL
rear panel. An Alarm Contact is also provided from this port
(see connector pinouts, page 7).
The 2010DBVL is configured with a 2-position slide switch,
S1, and three 8-position DIP switches: S2, S3, and S4. S1 is
set for normal/test mode, as described for the 2010DB module.
DIP switch S2 sets the filtering mode, as described for the
2010DB, the Alarm Contact mode, and the RJ45 port baud
rate. Switch position 2 of S2 must be set to ON for the module
to function as a Video Loss Detection module.
The Alarm Contact modes are:
Alarm during Video or Sync Loss - The Alarm Contact is
closed and the ALARM LED on the 2010DBVL front
panel is illuminated when a sync or video loss is first
detected; both remain on until the loss is cleared.
Alarm during loss, plus 10 seconds - The Alarm Contact is
closed and the ALARM LED is illuminated as above, but
both remain on for 10 seconds after the loss is cleared.
Alarm at loss for 10 seconds - The Alarm Contact is closed
and the ALARM LED is illuminated as above, but both
remain on for only 10 seconds.
Alarm at loss for 20 seconds - The Alarm Contact is closed
and the ALARM LED is illuminated as above, but both
remain on for only 20 seconds.
The baud rate setting of DIP switch S2 configures the RJ45
port on the 2010DBVL for the desired communications rate.
DIP switch S3 must be set to the camera and monitor group
numbers assigned to the switching bay modules.
DIP switch S4 sets the type of communication used via the
RJ45 port and enables or disables the 2010DBVL front panel
LED's. This port may be configured for RS-232, RS-422, or
RS-485 communications.
The following tables show the switch position settings for DIP
switches S2, S3, and S4. Figure 26 shows the location of these
DIP switches on the 2010DBVL PCB card.

SETUP
Video Input Module Switches
The 2016AVIM (Video Input Module) performs the actual
video switch. Each module can switch any one of 16 video
inputs to any video output, or multiple combinations of video
outputs, up to 16.
The 2016A Video Input Module must be set to the cameras and
monitors it is to respond to. There are two 8-position dip
switches. DIP switch S1 is used to set all field configurations.
The eight position dip switch S1, located on the circuit board,
must be set to identify the camera and monitor group. The first
two switches select one of four groups of 16 monitors and the
last six select one of 64 groups of 16 cameras. Switch settings
are shown in Table 3.
The monitor group selection is independent of the camera
group selection. Yet both monitor and camera group must be
selected correctly depending on the particular slot the card is
being placed in. Note: The silkscreen on the board clearly
shows the correct dip switch to use. The word "CAM GRP" is
screened adjacent to the correct dip switch.
The DIP switch S3 is not used in this module.
