1.0 EGULATO Y NOTICES
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of
a lass B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the F rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• onnect the equipment into a different outlet than the one
which the receiver/driver is connected.
• onsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

2.0 DESC IPTION
The DLH6420 code distribution unit is a 16-channel RS-422 transmit
only (2-wire and ground) distributor. It was designed as an
accessory of the System DLH4200B, but can be used with any
system that uses RS-422 serial communications. The product will
primarily be used to install pan/tilt and dome receivers in a “star’’
configuration.

2.2 FEATU ES
The DLH6420 has the following features:
• Two 8-position, RJ-45 connectors in parallel, providing an input
from a controller and an output for an additional daisy-chained
unit
• Sixteen 3-position screw terminal connectors used to output 16
RS-422 transmit only code lines
• Two-pin terminal connector (refer to figure 3) for an external 10
to
24 VA /VD power source
• Standard 120/230 VA 50/60Hz line input (auto-ranging)

3.0 P E-INSTALLATION INFO MATION
3.1 F ONT VIEW
Figure 1 illustrates the front view of the DLH6420 unit, which uses the
standard panel layout for the DLH4200B product line. A power LED indicator
(green) is located on the left and a data LED (red) is located on the right
side of the front panel of the unit. The power LED will light when power is
applied to the unit; the data LED will light when a transmission from the
controller is received by the DLH6420.
3.2 EA VIEW
Figure 2 illustrates the rear (working side) of the DLH6420 unit. Note the
three-position terminal screw data output lines numbered 1 - 16, from left
to right. Next to that are the RJ-45 female IN/OUT communication ports and
the external, two-pin independent power input. Finally, the standard A
power input cord connection is on the far right.

Figure 3 further details the mating plugs, pin-outs, and so on pictured in Figure 2.
Note that for externally supplied power sources, the DC supply hook-up can handle
forward or reverse hook-up of the input source. The internal bridge can handle either
polarity. There are, naturally, no polarity concerns with an externally supplied AC power
source.

4.0 INSTALLATION
Installation of the unit is straightforward. The unit is rack/wall
mountable and is only 8" deep (20.25 cm). In addition to the 16 lines
available for output with one unit, eight units may be daisy-chained
together. This will allow 128 receivers (that support 128 address
settings) to be connected on a single Sercom port. Figure 4 illustrates
two units daisy-chained providing 32 independent drive lines.

5.0 OPE ATION
The DLH6420 unit works as a distribution repeater for expanding one RS-
422 communication port into 16 isolated and buffered RS-422 ports. The
primary use for the DLH6420 is to provide quick, easy, and proper data-
line distribution for serial type pan/tilt and dome receivers. In the case of
these isolated RS-422 drive lines, the remote devices may be located as
far as 4,000 feet (1,219 m) away from the controller, depending on the
physical parameters of the connection.The unit is ideal for use on larger
switching systems where it becomes desirable to “home-run” the RS-422
data lines for controlling pan/tilt or dome receivers.
