1.1 Introduction
This User’s Guide provides information on installing and operating Routemaster
systems.
Section 1.3 ‘Safety and Pre-installation checks’ includes instructions which must
be followed.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of this guide, DTL
Broadcast Ltd cannot be held responsible for errors or omissions. We would of
course welcome any constructive feedback.
1.2 Overview of the range
The Routemaster range comprises a series of analogue video and audio routing
matrices and associated control options. As standard, models are available in sizes
from 16x1 through to 16x8. Various control options are available with local and
remote button per cross-point and XY panels.
1.3 Safety and Pre-Installation checks
Safety warning
Before connecting the mains power supply, please ensure that the equipment is set
for the correct local voltage. Unless otherwise requested, all Routemasters are
delivered set to operate on 230 VAC.
Mains voltages may be accessible if the covers are removed fromthe unit. Covers
should only be removed when equipment is not connected to the mains and by
qualified service engineers.
Pre-Installation checks

Issue 4 Page 1 - 2
On unpacking the equipment please check for any signs oftransit damage. Ifany is
found contact your carriers immediately as they may wish to inspect the equipment
as well as the packaging.
If all appears well check the equipment against the packing/delivery note for any
errors or omissions. If there are any please contact your distributor or local agent
unless we have supplied you directly.

2.1 16x1 video matrices
Features
The 16x1 Routemaster video matrix is a proven unit designed with a variety of
options to allow it to be easily installed, used and integrated into existing and
future systems. (The 5SV2987 & 5SV2987F YUV/RGB component video matrices
comprise three 16x1 composite matrices married together.)
• The 5SV2975F 16x1 video routing matrix has a front panel mounted button per
cross-point control panel.
• The 5SV2975 16x1 video routing matrixhas no integral control panel.
• Switching is within the vertical interval.
• 1U rack mounting units with looping inputs and dual outputs.
• Full broadcast quality.
• Control can be local and/or remote with button per cross-point (and/or XY
panels) using the reliable and proven Routemaster BCD system.
• Can be married to other video levels for component (YC, YUV, RGB or RGBS)
operation and to audio units for audio follow video with breakaway available
dependant on the type ofcontrol panel fitted.

Installation
Please read section 1.3 ‘Safety and P re-Installation checks’ before proceeding.
For a single level matrix with local control simply connect the video inputs and
outputs as shown on the rear panel (terminating any unused BNC’s at 75Ω),
connect the mains mating IEC connector to a suitable 230v supply (NB Earth
MUST be connected at all times) and the matrix is ready for use.
When a system requires a number of Routemaster matrices to be permanently
married (e.g. video and audio, video and stereo audio, component video and
audio), connect the married cable between the units being operated together with
the 4C014 married cable supplied (if not supplied see ‘connection for married
operation’ below).
For units with remote control connect the appropriate Routemaster(s) to the
control panel with the control cable(s) supplied.
NB When video and audio Routemaster(s) are permanently married, the video acts
as the master. Control panels should be connected to the video unit. When
matrices are married for component video, ensure that control panel(s) are
connected to the Y/G matrix so that syncs are derived correctly.
Section 4.2 covers the 5S2935 16 button per cross point control panel and
section 4.3 the 5SX4100 XY control panel.

Connection for married operation:
Connect all units in daisy-chain fashion via the 9 way ‘D’ type male connector at
the rear of the unit using 4C014 married cable or a cable made up of ‘D’ type
female connectors connected in parallel as below. When a video and audio
Routemaster(s) are married, the video unit acts as the master. Remote or local
control should be connected to the video unit. If being married to other
component levels ensure the unit designated Y/G is connected appropriately so
that sync is derived fromthe correct level.
Connection for remote control:
16x1 Routemasters can have local and/or remote control. 5S2925 16 button-per-
crosspoint panels are normally used for remote control. (If the XY remote control
panel is being used, please refer to section 4.3.)
Control panels are connected to 16x1 Routemasters using the female 9 way ‘D’
type connector on the rear ofthe unit. Use control cable 4C009, which is available
in a variety of lengths from 10 to 50 metres.(Alternatively a control cable can be
made from a 9 way ‘D’ type male and 15 way ‘D’ type female using the
connections given below. Note that screened cable must be used, with the screen
connected to the shell of the ‘D’ type connectors at both ends to meet EMC
requirements.)
For more complex married systems with multiple levels ofvideo and/or audio, the
remote control panel should be connected to the composite video matrix (or the
Y/G matrixfor component video).

Altogether 4 button-per-crosspoint panels can be used to control a 16x1, (3
remotes if local control is fitted) each panel with a unique priority level (see
5S2935 Control Panel section).
Operation
Selecting a source on the front panel or on a remote button per cross-point panel
switches the output to that source so long as the slider switch on the control
panel is in the enable position. (When the slider switch is in the disable position
tallies are still shown.)
When initially powered the matrix defaults to input 1. With local and remote
control panels operation is prioritised. The local control panel has priority level 2
whilst remote panels can be set for priority levels 1, 3 or 4, where level 1 has the
highest priority. The sliding switch, however may be used to disable selection by
one ofthe panels (but tallies will still be shown).
