ENC-1103
DESCRIPTION
The ENC-1103 is a high-quality encoder with 12-bit
conversion allowing operators to convert a SDI signal to
Composite, CAV or RGB. The composite outputs can be
NTSC, PAL or PAL-M and the component outputs can be
SMPTE, BETACAM or GBR formats. With its on-board
Genlock and Video Proc-Amp, the card provides flexible
system integration. An optional Frame Sync provides infinite
timing adjustment relative to an external reference. When
embedded audio is required to be separated into discrete
channels, the built-in audio demux (24-bit) allows up to 8
channels (2 groups) to be passed to an audio card. New
technology includes thumbnail generation and an optional
Waveform/Vectorscope over IP of the output signal which
allows operators to control and see the changes made to
the signal.
This card operates with the MSB-1121 Monitoring Switching
Bridge which allows the output of any module in the Densité
frame to be monitored.

INSTALLATION
Make sure you have ordered and received the ENC-1103
and its associated rear panel. If any of the following items
are missing, contact your distributor or Miranda
Technologies Inc.
* ENC-1103 SDI to Composite/CAV/RGB Encoder
* ENC-1103-SRP or ENC-1103-DRP Rear Panel (see
figure)
The ENC-1103 must be mounted in a DENSITÉ frame.
The installation includes both the ENC-1103 module, and
the rear panel module. It is not necessary to switch off
the power from these frames when installing or removing
the ENC-1103.
When used in conjunction with an audio module such as
the UAP-1781, the ABUS flat cable needs to be installed
between the ABUS connector of the ENC-1103 and the
connector of the audio module. The ABUS flat cable is
supplied with the audio module.
Detailed instructions for installing cards and their
associated rear panels in the Densité frame are given in
the Densité Frame manual.
Rear Panel Options
The ENC-1103 has different output types: composite,
CAV and RGB. Three composite outputs or one
CAV/RBG output is available on the single-width rear
panel; six composite outputs or two CAV/RGB outputs
are available with the double-width rear panel.
When a double-width rear panel has been installed, the
module must be installed in the right-most of the two slots
covered by the panel in order to mate with the rear panel
connectors. Should it be installed in the wrong slot, the
front panel LED will flash red. Move the card to the other
slot for correct operation. No damage will result to the
card should this occur.
OPERATION
Overview
The DENSITÉ frame incorporates a central controller
card, located in the center of the frame, it is equipped
with an LCD display and a control panel. The controller
handles error reporting and local and remote control for
all cards installed in the frame. The display and control
panel are assigned to the card in the frame whose
SELECT button has been pushed.
User Interface
Pushing the SELECT button will cause the on-card
STATUS LED to flash yellow, and the card identification
and the current status will be shown on the controller
card’s display. The STATUS LED will revert to it’s normal
state upon a second push of the button, or after a short
delay. The messages which may appear are shown in
the top line of the menu chart on page 3
Status Monitor LED
The status monitor LED is located on the front card-edge
of the ENC-1103 module, and is visible through the front
access door of the DENSITÉ frame. This multi-color LED
indicates module status by color, and by flashing/steady
illumination, according to the following chart (which also
indicates fault reporting for this card on the DENSITÉ
frame’s serial and GPI interfaces).
A “Flashing Yellow” Status LED indicates that the
SELECT button on the front panel has been pushed, and
the controller display and control panel are now assigned
to this card.
The LED color assignments for some error conditions
can be reconfigured by the user (see the chart and menu
for details).

Alarm Config button
This panel allows the alarm reporting of the ENC-1103
to be configured. The panel opens in a new window
when the button is clicked, and can be resized if
needed.
The panel is organized in columns.
Status/Name
This contains an expandable tree listing all the alarms
reported by this ENC-1103 card.
•Each alarm name includes an icon that shows
its current status
•Some alarms may be text-only and the alarm
status is shown in the name and not by a status
icon, e.g.
The Overall alarm and GSM contribution columns
contain pulldown lists that allow the level of
contribution of each individual alarm to the alarm
named in the column heading to be set.
•If there is no arrowhead in the box, there is no pulldown and the alarm is not user-configurable
Overall Alarm
This column allows configuration of the contribution of each individual alarm to the Overall Alarm associated with
this card. The Overall Alarm is shown in the upper left corner of the iControl panel, and also appears at the bottom
of the Status/Name column.

ENC-1103 SDI to Composite/CAV/RGB Encoder
Guide to Installation and Operation
ENC-1103 Page 11 of 19
•GSM Contribution
This column allows configuration of the contribution of each individual alarm to the GSM Alarm Status associated
with this card. GSM is a dynamic register of all iControl system alarms, and is also an alarm provider for external
applications. The possible values for this contribution are related to the Overall alarm contribution:
¾If the Overall alarm contribution is selected as Disabled, the GSM alarm contribution can be set to any
available value
¾If the Overall alarm contribution is selected as any level other than disabled, the GSM contribution is forced to
follow the Overall Alarm.
Levels associated with these alarms:
The pulldown lists may contain some or all of the following options:
The alarm makes no contribution (black icon)
The alarm is of minor importance (yellow icon)
The alarm is of major importance (orange icon)
The alarm is of critical importance (red icon)
The alarm exists but has no effect (used for text and composite alarms)
Shortcut: if you click in one of the columns beside a major heading in the Status/Name column (where
there is no pulldown shown), you will open an “invisible” pulldown that lets you assign a level to all alarms in
that section of the column simultaneously.
Log Events
iControl maintains a log of alarm events associated with the card. The log is useful for troubleshooting and identifying
event sequences. Click in the checkbox to enable logging of alarm events for each individual alarm.
