Rack Installation
Rack Installation
You can install your instrument into a standard 19-inch instrument rack with
one of the following rackmount kits:
VTSRACK-S2: Full rack (19"), short depth, 1RU adapter (with zero clearance
mounting) to fit one or two (side by side) WVR5200 instruments.
VTSRACK-L1: Full rack (19"), full depth, 1RU adapter (with 1.75" rack
space) to fit one instrument.
VTSRACK-L2: Full rack (19"), full depth, 1RU adapter (with zero clearance
mounting) to fit one or two (side by side) instruments.
See the instruction manual that is included with the rack adapter kit for installation
procedures.

Instrument Connectors
Power Connector
NOTE. If you ordered a power cord, it will come with a ferrite core. Install the
ferrite core as shown in the instructions with which it was shipped.
The instrument operates from an external AC adapter and has the following power
requirements:
A single-phase power source with one current-carrying conductor at or near
earth-ground (the neutral conductor).
The power source frequency must be 50 or 60 Hz, and a operating voltage
range must be from 100 to 240 VAC, continuous.
WARNING. To re duce risk of fire and shock, make sure the mains supply voltage
fluctuations do not exceed 10% of the operating voltage range.
Systems with both current-carrying conductors live with respect to ground
(such as phase-to-phase in multiphase systems) are not recommended as
power sources.
NOTE. Only the line conductor is fused for over-current protection. The fuse is
internal and not user replaceable. Do not attempt to replace the fuse. If you
suspect the fuse has blown, return the unit to an authorized service center for
repair.
SDI Video Connectors SDI inputs are self-terminating inputs. Use the SDI 1A, 1B, and SDI 2A and 2B
inputs to connect serial digital video signals to the instrument.
The SDI OUT can be selected to output either the looped-through input signal
or a test signal that contains configurable error brightups. This is done from the
Config > Outputs > SDI Output menu.
The following table lists the characteristics of the SDI video connectors.

Remote Connector The Remote connector is a 15-pin, female, D-type connector with socket contacts.
It uses ground closures for remote control and sending indications to external
equipment when alarms have occurred. The input of LTC is through the REMOTE
connector.
Use the Remote connector to input LTC time code signals, and to remotely select
one of the first four instrument presets in group “A” using ground closure. The
following table lists the signal characteristics of the Remote connector.
NOTE. For more information on Preset recall, refer to the user manual on the
