6 Description of equipment
The Visilynx 3i (VIS3I-328) is a 32 loop-through input by 8-output full cross-point
video matrix node contained in a 19” wide by 3U high enclosure.
You can connect two identical units together using an expansion cable to double
the size of the video matrix to 64 loop-through input by 16-output full cross-point
switcher. In this configuration, you set one of the two units to be the Master and
this can connect to a Visilynx control network, and you set the other to be the Slave
unit.
You can connect up to 127 nodes together to form a distributed video switching
network. The video connections between nodes are made by trunk connections.
In a networked system, a keyboard at one node may view and control cameras,
VCR/DVRs and multiplexers at any other node. It may also respond to alarms from
other nodes. The number of video inputs from remote nodes that can be viewed at
any one time is governed by the number of available trunk connections between
the nodes.
You can expand any VIS3I-328, by fitting up to two optional Visilynx 3 quad cards
(Type VIS3-QUAD). In a single VIS3I-328 with 8 monitor outputs, each quad card
makes available the equivalent of an additional 4 monitor outputs.
The main user interface device of the VIS3I-328 system is the Visilynx 3 keyboard.
A single keyboard may be powered by a single VIS3I-328, and a further 15
keyboards with local power supplies may be addressed. You must not connect a
keyboard to both power sources at once.
Each VIS3I-328 is designed to be used free standing (as supplied) or fitted into a
standard 19” rack cabinet.
The VIS3I-328 is supplied with configuration and test software called VisiPC, which
you should install onto a suitable PC. This forms the heart of the system's
configuration and test capability.
This manual is designed to cover basic operation. To be able to understand and
use advanced features such as networking it is recommended to attend a product
training course.
General
The VIS3I-328 is made up of these mechanical and electrical subsystems:
zEnclosure (see chapter 6.1 Enclosure)
zPrinted Circuit Boards (see chapter 6.2 Printed circuit boards (PCBs)).
zPower Supply Module (see chapter 6.3 Power supply module VIS3I-PSU)
zCooling fan (see chapter 6.4 Cooling fan)
zFront panel indicators (see chapter 6.5 Front panel indicators)
zRear panel connections and controls (see chapter 6.6 Rear panel connections
and controls)
zFirmware and software (see chapter 6.7 Firmware and software)
zQuad cards (see chapter 6.8 Quad card VIS3-QUAD)

6.1 Enclosure
Fig. 2 VIS3I-328 enclosure
The VIS3I-328 enclosure comprises four main parts:
zBase assembly
zCover
zFront panel
zRack mount brackets (optional)
The base assembly is fabricated from 1.2 mm zintec sheet with a natural finish. It
provides fasteners for mounting the cooling fan and the control card. Cut-outs are
provided on the rear panel for the mounting the input/output connectors (see
chapter 6.6 Rear panel connections and controls). Details of the connectors are
screen printed on the rear panel. Two additional cut outs are provided in the sides
of the base assembly to provide a path for the cooling air. Four black Polyastomer
feet are fitted in the base of the assembly.
The cover is fabricated from 1.2 mm Zintec Sheet and finished with polyester
powdercoat. The cover is fastened to the base using a slide-in capture bracket and
eight M4 screws. Vent holes are provided in the sides and the cover incorporates
an earth stud.
The hinged front panel has two cross-head captive screws which are provided for
fastening the panel to the base assembly. Holes are included in the panel for
viewing the indicators (see chapter 6.5 Front panel indicators).
The rack mount brackets are manufactured from 3.0 mm aluminium sheet with a
brushed finish and are optionally fitted to the base assembly for mounting the unit
into a 19” rack enclosure.

6.2 Printed circuit boards (PCBs)
The VIS3I-328 contains four printed circuit boards (PCBs) to provide control,
configuration, access to the input/output connectors and interfacing to the two
option cards. The PCBs are:
1 Control PCB
2 BNC Connector PCB
3 D Connector PCB
4 Slot Expansion PCB
The PCBs are fixed within the unit enclosure and are therefore not considered to
be user serviceable parts. Fig. 3 shows the location of the PCBs within the unit.

Tab. 3 Firmware and software
Keyboard compatibility
VIS3I-328 is compatible with earlier Visilynx 3 keyboards that show SW218-5 on
their LCD when switched on. However, VIS3I-328 systems using these keyboards
should not enable camera bi-directional telemetry alarms 1190 to 1701 for
keyboard access. These alarms cannot then be handled by PCCON either, but
VisiPC will show their true states.
IMPORTANT
These earlier keyboards cannot correctly determine whether they are supposed
to respond to these higher alarm numbers, and may show these alarms on their
alarm menus when they are not supposed to, or vice versa.
To disable these alarms for keyboard access:
1. Start VisiPC in the Visilynx3 Configurator sub-program as described in the
VisiPC Software Manual.
2. Select the Alarm Settings menu screen.
3. For each Alarm, ID 1190 onwards, ensure that None is selected in the Type
drop down menu.
4. Save the configuration and transfer the file to VIS3I-328.
NOTE
To be able to handle camera bi-directional telemetry alarms 1190 onwards at keyboards and when
using PCCON, make sure you are using keyboards that show SW218-6 or higher on their LCD when
switched on. Response options other than None can then be selected in the Type drop down menu at
the Visilynx3 Configurator sub-program Alarm Settings menu screen for these Alarm IDs.
