Section 1
Installation
Initial Inspections
Check the contents of the shipment for completeness and possible transport damage.
If the contents are incomplete or damaged, contact Utah Scientific Inc immediately for
repairing or replacement parts of the equipment.
Before Applying Power
Verify that the product is configured to match the available main power source per
the input power configuration instructions provided in this manual.
The modules of the UTAH 100-3 frame may only be installed in specific positions.
Interchanging power and function modules may harm the UTAH 100-3-frame
permanently.
The modules of the UTAH 100-3 frame shall always have the components facing
to the right. Failure may occur if modules are installed incorrectly.
Service
Servicing, adjustments, maintenance or repair of this product may be performed
by qualified personnel only. Adjustments described in this manual may be
performed with power supplied to the product while protective covers are
removed. Energy available at many points may, if contacted, result in personal
injury. Capacitors inside this product may still be charged even when
disconnected from their power source.

Section 1 1-3
Product Overview
Section 1
Product Overview
The UTAH 100-3 family of Distribution Amplifiers provide an economical but highly
reliable means of creating multiple copies of both analog and digital video signals.
The 2 RU frame holds dual power supplies for maximum reliability and up to ten DA
modules. Each module is supplied with a rear panel assembly to match the module’s
configuration.
Installation
1. Remove the front cover and inspect the frame and the cards carefully for
damages that may have occurred during transport.
2. Check that the frame is installed so the airflow though the unit is
unrestricted. No forced ventilation is required under normal operating
conditions.
3. Connect the external power cords to the corresponding power connectors
on the rear side of the UTAH 100-3 frame. Check that the Power LED on
the primary supply is lit, while the Fan and Temp LEDs remain unlit. If a
failure occurs related to no power, inoperative fan, or temperature range,
please disconnect power and contact UTSCI support for assistance.

1-4 Product Overview
Section 1
4. Check the power LEDs on the individual DAs. The blinking green "Activity"-LED
along the front of the card indicate good power to the board and that the correct
jumper setting is present. Normally no changes are necessary if used with Utah
Scientific Inc. control software/systems.
5. Install any additional (needed) cards in the frame - while observing the LED status
at all times.
6. Reinstall the front cover to ensure that air travels properly trough the unit.
