Turn off power to the MultiTasker enclosure and remove the input AC power cord. Step 2. Locate the MT107-104 currently installed in the MultiTasker. Verify there is an empty slot in the enclosure for the new MT107-303 card. The MT107-303 must be installed directly to the right of the MT107-104 Matrix Engine. For example, if the engine is installed in slots 9 and 10, the first MT107-303 output card should be installed in slot 11, the second in slot 12, and so on. Step 3. Route the ribbon cables through the notch in the add-on boards and connect to the MT107-104 base assembly using the special high-bandwidth cables provided with the engine. Make sure the cable connector is secured in the socket of the output connector card. Step 4. Attach the opposite end of the ribbon cable to the card and carefully slide the MT107-303 into the empty slot in the MultiTasker enclosure. Step 5. Secure the card by tightening the retainer screws at the top and bottom. Step 6. Connect the output of the MT107-303 to the input of a Twisted Pair receiver using ALTINEX cable part number MS8704TP. Step 7. Restore AC power to the enclosure. Step 8. The MT107-303 is now ready for operation. 7.1 RS-232 CONTROL The MT107-303 has many advanced remote-control capabilities as part of an MT107-104 Matrix Switcher. These capabilities are accessible through standard RS-232 communication. The actual controlling can be accomplished through a computer control system or any other device capable of sending RS-232 commands. 7.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMMANDS Please see the MT107-104 User's Guide for a full listing of commands available for the MT107-303 as part of a MultiTasker Matrix Switcher. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 8 We have carefully tested and found no problems in the supplied MT107-303. However, we would like to offer suggestions for the following: 8.1 NO DISPLAY Cause 1: The source has a problem. Solution: Check the source and make sure that there is a signal present and all source connections are correct. If the source is working and there is still no display, see Cause 2. Cause 2: The input signal is not detected. Solution 1: In AVSnap®, or other control software, send the [SDI] command. This command is detailed in the MT107-104's User Guide. Verify a signal is detected for the output number in question. If a signal is not detected, see Solution 2. Solution 2: Verify the MT107-303 is connected to the MT107-104 and that the cable is in good condition. If a signal is detected, see Cause 3. If there is no signal detected, please call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300. 400-0372-005 8 MULTITASKER Cause 3: The path is not selected. Solution: Make sure the input to output path is correctly selected. For example, Input 2 is connected to Output 1 in the Matrix Engine status. Physically, the source signal should be connected to Input 2 and the display cable should be connected to Output 1. See RS-232 accessible commands in Section 7 of the MT107-104 User’s Guide for command details. If no display is present, see Cause 4. Cause 4: Cable connections are incorrect. Solution: Make sure that cables are properly connected. Also, make sure that the continuity and wiring are good. If there is still no display present, see Cause 5. Cause 5: The display has a problem. Solution: Make sure the display is powered and is turned on. If there is still no display, please call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300.
