Application Processing Dolby Digital or Dolby E Audio with Dolby Decoder Enabled3981450361950 Set dip switch settings according to figure 5 to decode Dolby Digital or E audio. Dip switch [5,6] (AES5 / AES6 Selector & Dolby Decoder Input Group Selector) selects the group location of the Dolby signal proceeded by the Dolby decoder. Dip switch 4 (Dolby Decoder Input AES Selector) selects the AES1 or AES2 location of the Dolby signal within the respective group. Embedded audio transitioning from Dolby to PCM/Compressed will automatically be detected and passed by the card using these settings. outputs AES1-4 will function according to table 2. AES5 and AES6 outputs will always function as the de-embedded output set by dip switch ⅚.

Creating Lt/Rt Downmix of the Main Audio Program using Dolby Decoder Toggle dip switch 2 to the ON position show in Figure 6, to create a Lt/Rt downmix of the main program (Program 1). A downmix will now be available on output AES4 OUT.

Processing PCM or Dolby Audio with Dolby Decoder Disabled A three group demux is available on the AES 1-6 outputs with the Dolby decoder disabled. Set dip switch settings according to Figure 7. Dip switch [5,6] (AES5 / AES6 Selector & Dolby Decoder Input Group Selector) selects the audio group of AES5 OUT and AES6 OUT. Dip switch 4 has no effect in this mode. Refer to section Dip Switch Settings for full details. The AES 1-6 outputs will function according to table 3 below.

Figure 2. Rear Modules Board Installation Use the following procedure to install the M6202AE in an openGear Series frame. Refer to the User Manual of the openGear OG3-FR-C series frame to ensure that the frame is properly installed according to instructions. When using the M6202AE with the OG3-FR-C frame, please note that the even numbered slots are to be used. Plug the M6202AE modules into slots 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18, and 20 for a maximum of 10 cards. Slot 1 is the left most slot as you look into the frame from the front. After selecting the desired frame installation slot, hold the M6202AE card by the edges and carefully align the card edges with the slots in the frame. Then fully insert the card into the frame until the rear connection plugs are properly seated on the midplane and on the rear module. This completes the procedure for installing the M6202AE in an openGear OG3-FR-C Series frame. User Controls User Control Diagram Figure 3. Card-edge User Controls LEDs The front-edge of the card features LEDs that display the status of the input signals. As selections are made in the menus, (refer to the subsequent chapter for complete menu descriptions), the LEDs display the status of the input signals. Descriptions are provided in the following table:

LED Color Location Display and Description SD Green Top of the card When on there is a valid SD-SDI signal at the input.

HD Green Second from the top When on there is a valid HD-SDI signal at the input.

ERR Red Third from the top When on a valid SD-SDI or HD-SDI signal is not present AES1 Yellow Fourth from the top When on this indicates there is audio present within the SDI signal AES2 Yellow Fifth from the top When on this indicates there is audio present within the SDI signal AES3 Yellow Sixth from the top When on this indicates there is audio present within the SDI signal AES4 Yellow Seventh from the top When on this indicates there is audio present within the SDI signal Com Activity Green Eighth from the top When on this indicates that the M6202AE is communicating to Dashboard through the CAN bus.
