Magellan Programmable Control Panels
Installation and Operation Manual
The Magellan control panel frame can be mounted in a standard width 19-in. (48.3 cm)
rack using four 10 / 32 Phillips-head mounting screws. The back of the frame does not need
to be supported. The frame can be mounted in either the front or the rear of the rack,
thereby providing more efficient use of your equipment housing space. The rack ears can be
attached to the frame in either direction, thereby allowing you flexible mounting options.
The 1RU panel requires one unit of rack space, that is, 1¾ in. (44 mm) of standard rack
space. The depth from the mounting surface is 2½ in. (64 mm).
The 2RU panel requires two units of rack space, that is, 3½ in. (88 mm) of standard rack
space. The depth from the mounting surface is 2½ in. (64 mm).
Panel Installation Procedure
Magellan panels are usually installed as part of a larger routing control system.
The maximum allowable distance for each segment of the X-Y coaxial cable run is
2,000 ft (609 m).
There is no limit to the number of control devices added to the X-Y control bus.
To install the Magellan control panel in a control system
1 Mount the control panel in an rack that provides power and cooling facilities. The panel is
designed for mounting in a standard equipment rack.
2 Align the control panel so that all four screw holes in the mounting ears match up with
those in the rack.
3 Secure the control panel to the rack with the rack screws and washers.
4 Connect the control panel to the appropriate port (Ethernet, X-Y) on the router frame’s rear
panel.
For most installations, the control panel should be connected via the Ethernet port. To use
the software configuration tools, an Ethernet connection is necessary. Only use the X-Y port
to connect the control panel to a legacy device.
5 If the control panel is used in a multiple frame system, connect the additional frames using
the appropriate scheme.
6 If the control panel is at the end of the X-Y bus, terminate the other X-Y connector with a
coaxial 75Ω termination.
7 Plug a power cord into the DC power supply connector.
8 Connect the power cord to a power source.
