Preface
About This Manual
This manual describes the features of the Kameleon multi-function
modules that are part of the Kameleon Media Processing System. As part
of this module family, it is subject to Safety and Regulatory Compliance
described in the Kameleon/2000 Series frame and power supply documen-
tation (see the Kameleon 2000 Series Frames Instruction Manual ).

KAM-SD-2AES-DMX
Kameleon Series Module
Introduction
This manual provides installation, operation and configuration informa-
tion for the KAM-SD-2AES-DMX Kameleon Series module.
The Kameleon KAM-SD-2AES-DMX multi-function module accepts a
serial digital video input with embedded audio and a serial digital video
output. AES audio can be demultiplexed from the incoming SDI video and
sent to two AES audio output channels (balanced or unbalanced).
This module features:
•Broadcast quality serial digital input and output video,
•Embedded 48 kHz AES digital audio streams are demultiplexed from
the SDI video providing two balanced or unbalanced AES outputs,
•Audio and video delay, synchronization and processing amplifier,
• Powerful line-by-line VBI processing including user-configuration of
active video lines for carrying data,
• 4x4 audio router for mapping audio channels to specific AES streams,
•Audio and video test generators,
•Hot swappable,
•5user-programmable E-MEM registers,
• Save/load module configuration files to a networked PC,
•SNMP monitoring capability,
•Web browser GUI (graphical user interface), and
•Support for Newton Control System and NetConfig Network Configu-
ration application.
Note KAM-SD-2AES-DMX operation requires 2000NET Network Interface Module
hardware revision 01A1 or greater with software version 3.2.2 or greater.
Systems installed in the 2000T3N frame require the 2000FAN fan sled (refer
to Figure 3 on page 11).

Installation
Installation
To install the Kameleon modules, perform the following steps:
1.
Place the KAM-AES-R passive rear module in a rear frame slot and
tighten the screws on each side of the rear module.
2.
Cable the signal ports.
All Kameleon modules can be inserted and removed from a 2000 Series
Kameleon Frame with power on.
Note Remove the front processing module before removing the rear I/O module.
System Requirements
For proper operation of the KAM-SD-2AES-DMX modules, the frame must
be a 2000T1DNG or 2000T3NG which include the following components:
•2000NET module (software version 3.2.2 or later recommended for full
functionality)
• 2000GEN module
•Dual 130W power supplies in the 2000T1DNG frame
• Single 240W power supply and 2000FAN in the 2000T3NG frame
Frame Capacity
The 1 RU 2000T1DNG (with dual 130W power supplies, 2000NET and
2000GEN modules) frames have no Kameleon module capacity limitations.
The 3 RU 2000T3NG (single 240W p/s, 2000FAN, 2000NET and 2000GEN
modules) frame can be fully populated with Kameleon modules when the
2000FAN fan sled and two power sleds are installed.
Table 1 provides the maximum Kameleon module count for frame types.

Installation
Module Placement in the 2000T3NG Kameleon Frame
There are twelve slot locations in both the front and rear of a 3 RU frame to
accommodate 2000 and Kameleon Series media modules (audio/video
signal handling modules). The Kameleon media modules consist of a
two-module set with a front processing media module and a passive rear
module that can be plugged into any of the 12 frame slot pairs. The rear
modules provide the input and output interface connectors.
Installing the Front and Rear Modules
To install a KAM-SD-2AES-DMX module set in the 2000 Series frame:
1.
Locate a vacant slot in the rear of the 3 RU frame (Figure 1).

Table 2 provides a complete list of possible operating conditions and the
resulting indicator status.
A red FAULT LED indicates an error situation. Table 2 describes signal
output and LED indications for the various input/reference combinations
and user settings.
Note The yellow COMM and CONF LEDs are used for the module location function
that is enabled using the 2000NET GUI. The module location function causes
these LEDs to repeatedly flash concurrently three times followed by an off
state of 900 ms duration (see Slot Configuration on page 58).

Configuration and Adjustments
Newton Control Panel Configuration
A Newton Control Panel (hard or soft version) can be interfaced to the
Kameleon 2000 Series frame over the local network. Control panel access
offers the following considerations for module configuration and moni-
toring:
•Ability to separate system level tasks from operation ones, minimizing
the potential for on-air mistakes.
•Ability to group modular products—regardless of their physical loca-
tions—into logical groups (channels) that you can easily manipulate
with user-configured knobs.
•Update software for applicable modules and assign frame and panel IP
addresses with the NetConfig Networking application.
•Recommended for real-time control of module configuration parame-
ters, providing the fastest response time.
Note Not all module functions are available with the control panel, such as E-MEM
and factory default recalls. The available control panel controls for the
module are listed in Table 3 on page 15.
An example of the Newton Configurator is shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7. Newton Configurator Example
Refer to the documentation that accompanies the Newton Modular Control
System for installation, configuration, and operation information.

Web Browser Interface
The web browser interface provides a graphical representation of module
configuration and monitoring (Figure 8).
Figure 8. 2000NET GUI
Use of the web interface offers the following considerations:
•Provides complete access to all module status and configuration func-
tions, including naming of inputs and outputs, factory parameter and
name default recalls, E-MEM functions, slot configuration, and SNMP
monitoring controls.
•Web access will require some normal network time delays for pro-
cessing of information.
•Configuration parameter changes may require pressing the
Apply
button or
Enter
, upload processing time, and a manual screen refresh to
become effective.

The Links section lists the frame and its current modules. The selected link's Status
page is first displayed and the sub-list of links for the selection is opened. The sub-list
allows you to select a particular information page for the selected device.
Content display section displays the information page
for the selected frame or module (frame slot icons are also
active links).

Configuration and Adjustments
•Web interface recommended for setting up module signal and slot
names, E-MEMS, and reporting status for SNMP and monitoring.
Refer to the Frame Status page shown in Figure 8 on page 19. The Kame-
leon and 2000 modules can be addressed by clicking either on a specific
module icon in the frame status display or on a module name or slot
number in the link list on the left.
Note The physical appearance of the menu displays on the web pages shown in
this manual represent the use of a particular platform, browser and version
of 2000NET module software. They are provided for reference only. Displays
will differ depending on the type of platform and browser you are using and
the version of the 2000NET software installed in your system. This manual
reflects 2000NET software version 3.2.2.
Web Page Operations and Functional Elements
The following conventions and functional elements (shown at left) are used
in Kameleon web page operations. (The examples shown throughout this
manual represent 2000NET software version 3.2.2 or later):
• Pulldown menus allow you to choose selections from a list.
•Check boxes are used when a selection can be enabled or included in a
group. Multiple check box selections or enables can be made for some
parameters.
•Radio buttons are used to make a choice of one parameter in a group.
•Each numerical adjustment control has a
Coarse
adjust button (left and
right top double arrows) and a
Fine adjust button (left and right bottom
single arrows).
•To change a value, use the arrow button controls or enter a value into
the number field and select the Apply button. You may also enter a
number into the number field from a keyboard and hit the Enter key to
apply the value.
•A
Refresh button (circular arrow) is provided for manual refresh of the
web page to view recently changed parameters.
• The Status LED is explained below.
