IconMaster Installation and Configuration Manual 117
Chapter 4: Router Connections
Sample Configuration 1: IconMaster System, External Platinum
Router, Optional ICONM-BO-V Module
This section describes the connections that are required in a typical
configurations involving Platinum external routers. Figure 4-28 on page 118
shows a detailed illustration of this process.
1. Configure Platinum Router
Before you can make any connections to an IconMaster, the Platinum router
must already be configured as desired. If your Platinum router is already
operational, you do not need to configure it. If, however, your Platinum router is
not already operational, you must install and configure it as desired for your
facility. See the Platinum Series Frames and Modules Installation,
Configuration, and Operation Manual for detailed information.
On your Platinum router configuration, make sure that you set the video and
audio to different levels. For example, if you set the video level to “0,” set the
audio level to “1” or higher.
2. Make Connections between the Platinum and MKE-3901
1. On the Platinum router, connect the inputs to the input BNC connections on
the appropriate Platinum modules.
2. Terminate the loop-thru (XY) BNC connectors on the communications back
panel (PT-CBP).
3. Connect the first desired output on the PT-CBP to Input Bus A on the
MKE-3901.
4. Connect second desired output on the PT-CBP to Input Bus B on the
MKE-3901.
5. On the PT-CBP, connect the station reference to one connector on an
available Sync connection.
6. On the MKE-3901 back module, connect the signal Squeeze Bkgd input to
an output on the PT-CBP.
7. Connect an available serial port (SERIAL1 or SERIAL2) on the PT-CBP to
Serial Port E in the Multi Function I/O connector on the MKE-3901. This
can be done by direct connection or by ICONM-BO-V breakout module
connection. When using the ICONM-BO-V breakout module, either serial
port of the PT-CBP must be connected to the RS-232/422-E port on the
breakout module as indicated in Figure 4-29 on page 119.
The Platinum router serial port baud rate must be set to 38400.
IconMaster can control the Platinum over Ethernet.
