Installation Guide
HPX-AV100-RGB+A Hydraport RGB AV Module
Overview
The HPX-AV100-RGB+A Hydraport Composite AV Module (FG552-11) is designed to
be used in conjunction with the HPX-1600 Hydraport Base Assembly. See
specifications for module requirements. For more information on the HPX-1600, refer
to www.amx.com.
The HPX-AV100-RGB+A provides user-accessible RGB (VGA HD-15) Video and
Stereo connections on the face of the Hydraport system. The HPX-AV100-RGB+A
provides connection from the user's source equipment to a remote client such as
projector, monitor, display or stereo sound system.
Product Specifications
Installation
Attention! Only a professional, AMX-qualified installer should
perform this installation. Installation must conform to all local codes.
This product may not be installed by the end-user.
Tools Required
• Wire cutting pliers
• Wire strippers
• Small flat blade screw driver
• Phillips Screw Driver (to access Hydraport Base Assembly)
CAUTION! Ensure that the AC Power cord is disconnected from IEC
C-14 power inlet connector on the Hydraport Base Assembly prior to
disassembly of the Hydraport Base assembly or installation of the
HPX-AV100-RGB+A Module (see FIG. 2).
Step 1 - Backside Termination
Before installing the module into the Hydraport Base Assembly, the backside
terminations of the module must be completed. This backside termination requires
connecting three coaxial cables (or equivalent) to the 6 position phoenix terminal
block located on the back of the module.
Note that for terminations for which the far end of the cable is not accessible either
because the cable has been run under carpet, in a conduit or structure, or is otherwise
fixed, the cable must be placed through the retaining ring (note the orientation of the
retaining ring) then through the mounting surface from bottom to top, then to the
module - before the module is placed into the base assembly (FIG. 3).
Step 2 - Provide a Service Loop
Ensure there is sufficient cable length to provide a service loop for the cable after the
module is installed into the Hydraport Base Assembly (FIG. 4).
Note that the Hydraport Base Assembly travels up and down approximately 228.6 mm
(9”) during operation.
The service loop must accommodate this motion and provide for securing the cable to
the Hydraport Base Assembly for strain relief.
For more detailed information, please refer to the HPX-1600-XX Hydraport Base
Assembly Instruction Manual.

Step 3 - Prepare and Connect Wiring
1. If using a VGA cable, remove approximately 35mm (1.35 in) of the outer jacket
of the cable.
• Remove approximately 25mm (1 in) of the outer jacket of each coaxial cable.
• Remove approximately 4mm (.18 in) of the core wire insulation.
• If the shielding of the coaxial cable is braided wire, twist the shield wires for each
coaxial cable to a smaller diameter sufficient to fit within the phoenix terminal
block.
• If the shielding of the coaxial cable is foil with a drain wire, separate the drain
wire for installation into the Phoenix terminal block.
2. Insert the shielding conductor and the signal wire for each signal (Red, Green,
Blue, Horizontal Sync, Vertical Sync, Left Audio, Right Audio) into the
corresponding terminal.
3. Secure each connection using the terminal screw, according to the schematic
provided in FIG. 5:
Step 4 - Secure the Cable To the Module
Using two small provided tie wraps, secure the cable(s) to the circuit card on the
backside of the module, such that the cable exits to the side of the module (FIG. 6).
Step 5 - Insert the Module Into the HPX-1600 Chassis
Insert the module into the main chassis of the HPX-1600 Base Assembly.
Note the position of module interlock tab: this tab should face towards the bottom of
the HPX-1600 Base assembly when installed in its mounted position (FIG. 7).
Step 6 - Install the Bottom Cover On the HPX-1600
Note: Install any remaining modules into the Hydraport Base Assembly before
installing the Bottom Cover on the HPX-1600.
1. Install the bottom cover (including the Power Inlet Assembly) onto the bottom of
the main frame of the Hydraport Base Assembly.
The cables from the HPX-AV100-RGB+A Composite AV Module as well as all
other modules (except AC Power Outlets) will exit the bottom of the Hydraport
Base Assembly through one of four square passages on either side of the
bottom cover.
2. After the bottom cover is secured using four screws, secure the cables to the
corresponding tab near each opening using a small cable tie (FIG. 8).
