1TECHNICAL SUMMARY
1.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The OSD860 series is a high-quality digital video, data, audio and IP optical fiber transmission system.
The system consists of an OSD860 transmitter and OSD860 receiver which are designed to be used as
a pair. The OSD860 standard product provides forward transmission of two, four or eight channels of
PAL, NTSC or SECAM video and one way transmission of four data channels. The OSD860 can also
be configured with the following options;
•Full duplex data operation.
•Transmission of four audio and/or four additional high speed data channels.
•Reverse path transmission configured to provide any combination of four audio channels
and/or four data channels.
•Alternatively, the system may transmit eight audio only or eight data only signals either one
way or full duplex.
•10/100 Base-T Ethernet connections via an RJ45 connector.
The basic OSD860 transmitter has up to eight analogue composite video inputs which are converted to
a digital signal with 9-bit resolution. The four digital data inputs can be RS232 on two channels, TTL
or RS422 on the other two channels, with RS485 available on one channel, and operate from DC to
150kbps. Another added option allows a further 4 or 8 high speed data channels operating up to
400kbps. User adjustable turnaround times are provided for the RS485 on the optional data channels
and a fixed 100us turnaround time for the standard channel.
The OSD860 transmitter can be optionally supplied with up to eight analogue audio channels where the
audio signals are converted using 24-bit resolution. The audio channels can be balanced or unbalanced
at 775mV nominal level and operate over a 15kHz bandwidth.
10/100 Base-T Ethernet connection is also a fitted option.
The resulting digital signals are multiplexed and transmitted as a digital bit-stream through the fiber as
a laser light source operating at 1310nm or at 1550nm including the eighteen CWDM wavelengths
between 1270 and 1610nm. Various transmitter power levels and receiver sensitivities are available
providing cost effective operation over up to 120km. Two fibers are normally employed, one for each
direction of transmission. Single fiber full duplex operation is possible by employing wavelength
division multiplexing (WDM).
The OSD860 transmitter also includes an optical receiver section that decodes the digital signal
transmitted by the OSD860 receiver, to provide data, optional audio and Ethernet output signals.
The OSD860 receiver incorporates a high performance optical receiver for the incoming digital bit-
stream. The received digital signal is then decoded into video, data and audio signals, which are
available at the unit’s outputs. The OSD860 receiver also includes a transmitter that outputs a digital
optical signal consisting of the return path channels for audio and/or data and IP. The unit provides
constant analogue composite video output level which is independent of link loss, and the audio and
data sections of the OSD860 receiver are also adjustment free over all link lengths.
The OSD860 is available in three physical configurations: 10T card, stand-alone modem case and 2RU
rack mounting chassis. The 2RU version allows two OSD860 units effectively doubling the video,
audio and data available in a single unit. The card versions are designed to fit the 3RU-high 19”
OSD370 or OSD350 chassis allowing multiple OSD card products to be conveniently powered from
and located in the one chassis. The module versions are intended for isolated use and require an
external power source of +10 to +18VDC. The 2RU rack mounting chassis is a fully independent mains
or -48V powered unit.

RS485 2-Wire half duplex is used to connect several devices to the same bus when only one unit
transmits data at a time. All units are normally in high impedance receive mode waiting for data. When
transmission of data is requested, the device waits for a protocol specific turn-around time delay before
transmitting after which it returns to receive mode.
RS485 4-Wire full duplex is used for master/slave arrangement. Devices are polled and respond faster
with no turn-around time delay required between request/response. The receiver is always enabled
allowing the devices to receive data even while responding to a request.
Note: If a link doesn't seem to be working correctly, try swapping the polarity of the data lines on both
ends. Some devices are marked opposite the RS485 standard.
2.4.1.1 RS485 OPERATION
The standard OSD860 is configured for RS422 operation. Typically, the unit will be set to RS485 2-
Wire or 4-Wire at time of ordering as the access to the jumper settings is limited (particularly the
module version). If however there is a requirement for changing to RS485 2-Wire or 4-Wire,
modifications should be carried out by OSD or an authorised OSD distributor by setting the jumper
links as follows;
Note: There are two versions of switch/link jumper settings on the OSD860 current revisions;
1. 6-pin single in line (SIP) on the OSD860T
2. 8-pin dual in line (DIP) on the OSD860R

The optionally fitted data provides a number of control settings. These are pre-set at time of ordering as
the access to the switch mode settings are limited (particularly the module version). If however there is
a requirement for changing settings, the data control switch is located on the OSD8914 Data Interface
Daughter board inside the unit. Generally, settings should be carried out by OSD or an authorised OSD
distributor by setting the switch positions as indicated on Table 7 and Figure 9.
Switch 4 sets the data mode: RS422/232 or RS485. Switches 2, 3 and 4 set the RS485 Turnaround
Delay to the delay appropriate to your system (Table 7). If you are not sure of the correct delay value,
leave all Turnaround Delay switches “Off”, ie up.
All ‘two wire’ RS485 devices are by default in receive mode, and only change to transmit mode for
data transmission. All RS485 protocols use a transmit delay to ensure successful transmissions to the
ends of the network. The delay is data rate and protocol dependent.

2.7 OSD860 OPERATION
If a card version is used, insert it in an appropriate slot on the OSD chassis and check that the indicators
illuminate correctly on power up. If a module version is used, connect the unit to an appropriate power
source and check that the indicators illuminate correctly on power up.
In either case take special note of the “Laser OK” indicator, it should be green. If it is red there may be
a problem with the laser device. Disconnect power and have the unit checked as soon as possible.
Connect the appropriately terminated fiber cable to the OSD860 receiver, checking that correct fiber is
connected ie. from OSD860T transmitter to the OSD860R receiver (and vice versa). "ROS” (Received
Optical Signal) LED will change from Red to Green.
To connect composite video signals, connect 75ΩBNC terminated coaxial cable from the camera to
the OSD860T video inputs. Connect 75ΩBNC terminated coaxial cable from the OSD860R video
outputs to the video monitor/switcher.
Plug the digital signal source (data) into the DB15 (or data/audio to the optional DB44) connector on
the rear of the module. Ensure that the correct signals are connected to the correct pins of Audio/Data
Input/Output connector as specified in Table 5 or Table 6.

3MAINTENANCE
3.1 INTRODUCTION
The following section outlines the faultfinding procedure for the OSD860 modems. Please take note of
the following:
VPersonnel without appropriate training should not attempt any maintenance except that outlined
below.
VIf further maintenance is attempted you are warned that every care should be taken to ensure that
internal measurements made while the equipment is operational are taken carefully as some
components within the unit are expensive and may be damaged by failure of any portion of their
support circuitry.
VSome components within the unit are electrostatic sensitive and ESD precautions should be taken
when performing maintenance upon the unit.
3.2 EXTERNAL INSPECTION
Visually check for the following:
VCheck that the correct power source is connected to the power socket.
VCheck that the video, data and audio signals are connected to the modem correctly and that the
distant OSD860 modem has been terminated correctly to any external equipment.
VInspect the optical connectors for any contamination and clean using isopropyl alcohol and a lint
free tissue if any contamination is detected.
VCheck that any external termination resistors are connected if the system configuration requires
them.
3.3 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
VThere is no routine maintenance required with the OSD860.
