Rear Panel Ports and Connectors The rear panel contains the power jack, plus video and network connector ports. Figure 2–2. Pipeline SC rear panel 95881 DC Power Connector 10/100 Ethernet Pipeline Quad Hardware Pipeline User’s Guide When connecting video equipment, Ethernet, and RS-422 cables, be sure that the power supply is disconnected from the Pipeline. Failure to do so may result in equipment malfunction or damage. DC Power Port. Use to connect and turn on the Pipeline. Only connect the Pipeline to power using the Telestream-supplied power supply. 10/100 Ethernet Port. The Ethernet port has two LEDs: Link (left LED): If the LED is not lit, no link is available. If the LED is lit orange, link has been established. Connection/Activity (right LED): If the port is connected at 100 Mb, the LED lights green, and blinks on activity. If the port is connected at 10 Mb, the LED is unlit, but blinks green during activity. RS-422. Female DB-9 RS-422 port for VTR, using Sony 9 Pin protocol. SDI In. BNC jack for SDI input signal. SDI Out. BNC jack for SDI output. Caution If the Connection LED is unlit, the Pipeline is operating at 10 Mb, which is unacceptable for real time video traffic. Resolve the problem before continuing, to avoid video stream data loss. PIPELINE QUAD HARDWARE VTR RS-422 The Pipeline Quad is 17.3 inches (43.9 cm) wide, 13.2 inches (33.5 cm) deep, and 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) high. Pipeline Quad is a single rack unit device, with four onboard SDI encoder/decoder devices equipped with an external Gigabit Ethernet port and an onboard switch routing 100Mb Ethernet to each device, using TCP/IP, UDP, RTSP, and RTP and Bonjour for service discovery. Serial Digital Interfaces are provided for each device (BNC, SMPTE-259M 270mb/sec). There are 4 SDI in and out ports (per Quad, not per channel), each supporting up to 16 channels of embedded audio, with four SDI in and out ports (per Quad) with automatic detection of 525/625, and RS- 422 deck control ports, using Sony 9 Pin Protocol. SDI In SDI Out 9
10 Chapter 2 Pipeline Hardware, Installation & Setup Pipeline Quads can encode and decode NTSC or PAL with DV/DVCPRO 25Mb, IMX 30, 40, 50, MPEG2 I- Frame 50Mb MJPEG, and ProRes SQ video (encode only, in FlipFactory workflows), and 48 kHZ, 16 and 24 bit, uncompressed audio, in up to four concurrent sessions; each individual Pipeline channel operates independently, each communicating via a common physical Ethernet port on the Quad’s backplane. The Pipeline Quad and HD Dual provides common, dual power supplies for redundancy and fail-safe operation. Telestream highly recommends that both power supplies be connected during operations. The Pipeline can operate normally on a single power supply, however you will lose the redundant safety of the second power supply. Using SDI Sync Input The SDI Sync Input is used in both capture and playout modes, but for two different purposes. In capture mode, the SDI Sync Input is used as a method for supplying a common timecode reference to all input channels. For the timecode to be extracted, the SDI signal connected to the SDI Sync Input must contain a valid timecode in the ancillary data area of the signal. The SDI signal must be a digital signal that is frame synchronized with the SDI signals used as input video sources connected to each channel's input. An analog sync/reference signal, such as bi-level or tri-level, cannot be connected to the SDI Sync input. In playout mode, the SDI Sync Input is used as a frame synchronization source for each channel's SDI outputs. Any timecode on the SDI Sync Input is ignored in this mode. If no signal is connected to the SDI Sync Input, each channel's SDI output will free run (i.e. they will not be synchronized with each other or with any common reference). An analog sync/reference signal, such as bi-level or tri-level, cannot be connected to the SDI Sync input Using SDI Sync Out Re-clocked loop-through port of SDI Sync In. You can use this re-clocked reference for additional Pipelines or other devices. This output is only active when the Pipeline device is powered up and is in an operational state. Processing Closed Caption and Timecode Data Pipeline automatically processes Ancillary Data on ingest operations to obtain closed captions and timecode data. Pipeline encodes the closed caption and timecode data into the data stream of the digital output, making it available for further processing by client applications, such as FlipFactory, Vantage, Agility, and Episode. The Pipeline automatically analyzes the signal during the Vertical Blanking Interval (VBI) on ingest operations to obtain closed captions and timecode data. Closed caption data is extracted from line 21, and timecode data from lines 16 through 20 (the 5 lines beginning with line 16). The last line (usually line 20) with a valid timecode is the line whose data is used. November, 2012
