LXI SCALABLE CHASSIS, 6-SLOT 65-200
pickering
SECTION 1 - TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
INTRODUCTION
The 65-200 Scalable Chassis is the basis of a modular switching system which is designed to provide a high density
exible solution by the addition of plug-in modules. Switching congurations are created by populating a 65-200
chassis with plug-in modules that form part of the overall conguration. Users can specify as many or as few plug-
ins as they require and can eld upgrade the chassis to expand the conguration.
The chassis supports up to 6 plug-in modules. For matrix congurations these, depending upon the model of plug-
in, can be with or without direct Y bus access. For plug-in congurations without external Y connections, optional Y
access modules can be supplied. Plug-ins are loaded into the chassis via the front panel, greatly improving exibility
and ease of maintenance.
Analog Buses
Each plug-in is part of the overall switching conguration and can be linked to other plug-ins via the chassis analog
bus. In the case of matrix congurations, the analog bus allows Y signals to be linked between sub-matrices on the
plug-ins to expand the overall matrix in the X direction (certain matrix plug-ins don’t have analog bus access and
linking signals between sub-matrices has to be done externally via loop-thru ports). Connection to the analog bus is
via isolation switches which can be used to maximize bandwidth by disconnecting unused stub signals, or used to
produce single or independent switching congurations. Certain models of plug-in have multiple analog bus access,
this provides conguration exibility and increases the options available to the user.
There are eighty 1A analog bus lines, for products with a higher current specication it is possible to route individual
signals onto multiple bus lines via the plug-ins. For example, a 2A rated product would have access to forty analog
bus lines etc.
Conguring a Matrix
For example, to create a matrix using 65-221 plug-ins, carry out the following steps:
• Specify a 65-200-002 Scalable Chassis.
• Add 128x4 matrix plug-in modules with direct Y access as required.
• Add 128x4 matrix plug-in modules without direct Y access as required.
Both types of plug-in module have options for single or dual 128x4 congurations, with access to twelve or six
analog buses.The chassis will be supplied congured to the matrix specied when the unit is ordered. The user can
add and remove plug-ins and change the matrix conguration using the Instrument Conguration page accessible
from the chassis’ home page.
When populating the chassis, only plug-ins from the same product family should be tted per chassis. For example,
if a requirement was for 2 A and 8 A switching from the 65-219 & 65-239 families it would be necessary to use two
chassis, one for the 65-219 plug-ins and the other for the 65-239 cards.

SECTION 2 - TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The 65-200 chassis consists of a backplane, power supply and controller card housed in a 2U rack mountable
chassis. The backplane is capable of hosting up to 6 plug-in modules and distributes power, control signals and user
connections between the plug-ins. The controller card is based on an embedded processor and provides control
and management of the chassis via an LXI compliant LAN interface.
The switching plug-in modules used to populate the chassis have part numbers in the series 65-xxx-xxx and include
ranges of 1A high density, 2A medium density, 8A high power and high voltage matrices. Due to the exibility of
the architecture, there is the potential for development of other switching congurations. Within each plug-in range,
congurations are available with various sizes and a selection of analog bus widths. For most matrix congurations,
the analog bus is routed to the chassis backplane via isolation relays and forms the Y-bus of the overall matrix. Plug-
in matrix modules have access to the X-bus via front panel connectors and optional access to the Y-bus. For matrix
congurations that use plug-ins without front panel Y access and external Y connections are required, Y plug-ins
are available which allow external analog bus access via isolation relays.
A basic block diagram for the chassis is shown in Figure 2-1 and a generic architecture diagram for a matrix plug-in
module is shown in Figure 2.2. For more information on the individual plug-in modules, refer to the respective user
manual.

CHASSIS CONFIGURATION
The number of plug-in modules tted to the chassis can be changed by the user. Although the exibility of the
chassis allows empty slots between lled slots to be supported, in general use we recommend users ll the slots
from 1 to 6 in sequence (bottom left to top right) in order to maintain consistent bandwidth and path resistance.
IP Address
The 65-200 chassis is controlled over an LXI compliant Ethernet interface. The IP Address for the chassis is

SECTION 3 - INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE UNIT
General
The 65-200 chassis may be mounted on a desk top or tted into a standard 19 inch rack (rack mounting anges are
supplied with the unit and can be tted to either side of the front panel). When tting into a rack it is important to
provide adequate support using side brackets or runners, the mounting holes in the front panel anges are
designed only for securing the unit in the rack and must NOT be used to support the weight of the whole
unit.
The 65-200 relies upon forced air cooling for the power supply, processor and plug-in modules. Internal fans draw
air through slots in the front panels of the plug-in modules and expel air through vents on the rear panel. When
positioning the chassis, make sure that there is adequate clearance to allow unrestricted air ow through these
vents.
Power is supplied to the rear of the unit using a standard IEC power lead and the power on/off switch is located next
to the power inlet socket. The unit is supplied with a suitable Earthed mains power lead, If a different lead is used it
is important to ensure that an adequate Earth connection is present. When mounted in a rack, provision should be
made to allow access to the rear of the unit. This is to enable the operation of the power on/off switch and the Reset
button.
The 65-200 is controlled by the host computer via an Ethernet interface. The RJ45 socket on the rear of the unit
can be connected to a hub or switch via an Ethernet cable to allow control over a local area or wide area network.
Alternatively a crossover Ethernet cable can be used to connect the unit directly to a laptop PC and local control can
be carried out isolated from a network.
The IP address is displayed on the rear of the chassis and should be manually or automatically congured before it
can be used on a network, please refer to “Setting the IP Address” later in this section and the “LXI Getting Started
Guide” document to carry out this process.

PREOPERATION CHECKS (UNPACKING)
1. Check the module for transport damage and report any damage immediately to Pickering Interfaces.
Do not attempt to install the product if any damage is evident.
2. Ensure that the designated area for the product is of a at and solid construction to support its weight.

Page 3.2
SECTION 3 - INSTALLATION
LXI SCALABLE CHASSIS, 6-SLOT 65-200
pickering
To remove a plug-in module, rst the two crosshead screws either side of the front panel should be fully loosened
(these screws are captive so will remain attached to the front panel).
The plug-in module can now be extracted from the chassis by pulling it forward using the two handles.
Installing Plug-in Modules Into the Chassis
The 65-200 chassis will typically be delivered with plug-in modules installed. However on occasions users might
need to install plug-in modules into a new chassis or add or remove modules from an existing chassis.
Installation can be performed on a bench or in a rack, but if it is in a rack the 65-200 should be secure and the area
to the front of the chassis must be free of cables or other obstructions.
When installing plug-in modules the AC power MUST be off. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL MODULES WITH
THE CHASSIS POWER ON.
Fitting a plug-in module is the reverse of the extraction process, but care should be taken in aligning the module’s
circuit board with the guides in the chassis. The module should then be carefully pushed into the chassis so its front
panel is ush with neighbouring modules before tightening the crosshead screws.

If a plug-in is removed and not replaced, then a blanking panel will be require to be inserted in the empty slot to
ensure the correct airow is maintained through the chassis.
Note: Although not essential, slots should be lled in sequence from 1 to 6 (bottom left to top right).
Gaps can be left between modules but it is not recommended as it may affect the path resistance and
bandwidth of the overall switching conguration.
