..Maintenance Manual Part 2 (not supplied with the HDS-V3232) This manual contains detailed information on the maintenance and servicing of HDS-V3232 and their parts (board layout, schematic diagram, detailed part list and so on). If this manual is required, please contact to Sony’s service organization.
This manual describes the information that premises the service board parts replacement (board layouts, schematic diagrams and detailed parts list) of the HDS-X3000 series. If this manual is required, please contact your local Sony Sales Office/Service Center. (7) BKS-R3216/R1617/R3219 ..Operation Manual (supplied with each unit) This manual explains the notes on operating, specifications, locations and functions of each unit.
It sets the configuration and operation of the router system. It monitors the system in operation and displays the messages. A unique control protocol called S-BUS (Sony serial bus) is used for controlling the switcher system. With this protocol, all control signals are transmitted by using one 75 Z coaxial cable. The transmission path is called the “S-BUS data link”.
Page 12
When units other than these are used, some terminal displays will be different and some functions cannot be used. Therefore, please contact to Sony’s service organization to upgrade the version of your software. Use the same version software for the same models of routing switcher or remote control units on the S- BUS data link.
1-2. System Control 1-2-1. Specifications and functions of control port The DVS-V3232B/V6464B and HDS-V3232 digital video routing switcher is equipped with four kinds of remote ports REMOTE 1 (S-BUS), REMOTE 2 (9-pin), REMOTE 3 (25-pin), and REMOTE 4 (monitor S-BUS). Other switchers are equipped with three kinds of remote ports excluding REMOTE 4. The specifications and functions of the control ports are as follows.
Page 14
1-2. System Control REMOTE 3 D-sub 25-pin (MODEM side pin arrangement) Protocol RS-232C, 9600 bps , 8bit, No Parity, No check Function With this port the communication between the primary station and the control terminal and the setting of the units are performed. It is recommended that the control terminal be always connected to the switcher set to the primary station, so that you can see error message of the communication circuit and operation condition of units.
1-2-2. S-BUS control The S-BUS control is a remote control system. It has a simple connection structure and provides highly efficient communication. Multiple routing switchers and remote control units are connected to a single bus line to form a control network called the S-BUS data link. The units on this S-BUS data link commu- nicate with each other using the S-BUS protocol, select the necessary data from the control data transmit- ted through the data link, and operate according to the data.

1-2-3. 9-pin remote control The Sony digital routing switcher can be controlled from external control units connected to the RE- MOTE 2 (D-sub 9-pin) using RS-422A. For DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232, the functions performed by 9-pin remote control, can especially be upgraded to a great extent. The following three kinds of 9-pin remote protocols can be used.

2-1. Main Functions of Router System 1) The routing switcher is equipped with a system controller. It therefore does not require an additional controller for controlling the routing switchers. 2) By the cascade connection, up to 512 x 512 crosspoints can be selected. 3) Up to 8 levels can be assigned.
2-5. Number of Units 2-2. Built-in Controller The Sony digital routing switcher incorporates a system controller and therefore does not require a separate external controller. When several routing switchers are connected to the S-BUS, the CPU of the switcher set as the primary station will control the whole system.
2-6. Protect Function Function which protects the crosspoint set so that it cannot be released using other remote control units. While the protect function is on, the destination of the crosspoint to be protected will be fixed. Once the protect is set, it will not be released by any command, except those from the control terminal and the control unit used to set it.
2-10. Setting the Input/Output Name (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) 2-10. Setting the Input/Output Name (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) The following names can be used for the input/output connectors of the routing switcher. 1. “Type+Number” name 2. ”Description“ name There are altogether three kinds of numbers that can be set as input/output numbers. These are “physical number”, “connector number”, and “virtual number”.
Page 25
The name “Type + Num” consists of four alphabets and three numbers. It is assigned to the virtual number. Sixteen kinds of letters can be set for the “Type” part. Number 1 to 999 can be used for the “Num” part. Examples: CAM 234, VTR 145 The name “Description”...
2-11. Virtual Mapping Function (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) 2-11. Virtual Mapping Function (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) Several routing switchers can be mapped on a virtual matrix with 512 inputs and 512 outputs in router system. The matrix of one switcher can be also divided into several virtual levels and mapped. For example, a switcher handling the 4:2:2 video signal and a switcher handling the 4 fsc video signal can be mapped on the same level.
2-12. Free Assignment Function (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) 2-12. Free Assignment Function (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) While the same input/output number can be assigned, through levels 1 to 8, for each input/output name, different physical number can also be assigned on each level for an input/output name. The following figure shows the case that DVS-V6464B is used for level 1 and DVS-A3232 for levels 2 and 3.
2-13. Monitor Function (BKDS-V3292B only) 2-13. Monitor Function (BKDS-V3292B only) If a DVS-V3232B/V6464B is equipped with the optional BKDS-V3292B, any input/output signal can be monitored. The input and output signals can be observed on different monitors or on the same monitor by switching channels.

2-14. Tie Line Management (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) 2-14. Tie Line Management (DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 and HDS-V3232) If the primary station is a DVS-V3232B/V6464B, BKPF-R70 or HDS-V3232, by previously setting four signal paths between routing switchers, unused signal paths can be selected automatically and protected when input and output names are selected.
Operation example: 1. IN023 and OUT027 are selected from the remote control unit. 2. The CPU of the primary station detects IN023 from the source group. In the example below, the corresponding group is S002. 3. Like for IN023, the CPU also detects OUT027. The corresponding group is D002. 4.
2-16. Self-Diagnosis Function 2-16. Self-Diagnosis Function The routing switcher performed self-diagnosis on the following items and displays the results on the control terminal connected to the primary station. O Presence of board and its sort O Version of ROM on the control board O Presence of backup power supply unit/backup CPU board O Detection of fan rotation O Display of reference signal...
2-17. Route Function One of an application of Router is to expand number of Source inputs for DVS-7000 connecting with DVS-V6464B, show below. Route function is to display a source input chasing from a last program out even performing 4 times Re- entry function with DVS-7000/DME.
2-18. Enhanced Restriction of Selected Block (BKS-R1607/R3210 only) 2-18. Enhanced Restriction of Selected Block (BKS-R1607/R3210 only) If you define a certain number of outputs, you can vary a number of inputs which would not be capable with the older panel. This is applicable with BKS-R1607 and BKS-R3210.
3-1. Selecting the Control Terminal Load Windows 3.1 to an IBM PC/AT compatible machine (CPU: 80486 or a faster and more powerful micro-processor, clock: 25 MHz or faster enough) and use it as a control terminal in the terminal mode of Windows.

The screen returns to the menu screen when [Ctrl] _ [E] is pressed at each menu item.
4-1. Outline This setup procedure is written for the setup operator to understand the setup procedure, and more importantly, the philosophy behind the setup. Time spent now, before actually sitting down at the Setup Terminal will greatly enhance the flexibility of your router system (routing switcher system). If your system is only comprised of DVS-V**** routing switchers the setup approach is much simpler, and pretty strait forward.
4-2. Preliminary Information Before Installation 4-2. Preliminary Information Before Installation The control area of each switcher when used as the primary station is as follows. Model Input control area area DVS-V6464B 1 to 512 DVS-A3232 DVS-RS1616 DVS-TC3232 DVS-V3232B 1 to 512 DVS-V1616 BVS-V3232 BVS-A3232...
4-3. Preparation Before Setup 4-3. Preparation Before Setup 1. Set a primary station DVS-V6464B or DVS-V3232B is recommended as the primary station. Set M/S switch on the CPU-149 board to “M” position Station ID automatically will equal one. Set only one primary station. If more than two are set as the primary, they will not work correctly.
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures 4-4. Basic Setup Procedures 1. Identify all in/out signals, and segregate them into 16 types of sources and destinations (1) Make IN/OUT list of each routing switcher Make input/output list of each routing switcher referring to installation, or wiring diagram or other documentation showing router interconnection.

Page 52
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures (2) Assign Name Types (Menu Item [B]) Now select, and enter your 16 source and destination name pre-fixes. Once again, up to 16 type names used for source/destination name are decided using 4 letters (except “;”). Set using the menu item [B : SET SOURCE/DESTINATION TYPE].
Page 53
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures Figure 2 shows that no two levels need to occupy the same size space in the X, and Y directions. As our example in figure 1 demonstrates, level 1 could be 32 by 32 in 2 dimensional X, Y space, while levels 2, and 3 are only 16 by 16.
Page 54
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures Going back to the VTR 1 example, each of the 3 routing switcher outputs (SDI, AES/EBU, and analog audio) could be assigned to a different level, under the VTR001 label. Whenever destination VTR001 was selected all 3 crosspoints in the 3 different routing switchers would switch together.
Page 55
With this approach, you need the control terminal connected to the primary routing switcher, or a control panel that allows access to individual “levels”, like the BKS-R1607, BKS-R1608, BKS-R3209 or BKS- R3210 to control only one level of VTR001 routing. Figure 4 shows this approach.

Example : Destinations . Satellite 1 connected to SDI routing switcher OUT 9 (SDI routing switcher given label destinations 001-032) . DAT 1 connected to AES/EBU routing switcher OUT 9 (AES/EBU routing switcher given label destinations 033-048) . Satellite 1 connected to Analog Audio OUT 9 (Analog audio routing switcher given label destinations 049-064) Therefore : SDI Satellite 1...
Page 58
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures With this approach sources, and destinations like the VTR’s would be level mapped together so that all 3 routing switchers switch at the same time under the VTR001, VTR002, etc. label. But in the case of output 11, of each of the 3 routing switchers, the 1, and 3 levels (SDI, and analog audio respectively) would be level mapped and switched together (REM001) while output 11 of level 2, which is DAT003 would be virtually mapped off away from the other 2, so that it could be easily switched on it’s own.

Page 60
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures Now select suitable names for sources/destinations using Type name, and number and enter them in the IN/OUT list of each routing switcher (menu item [C]). Remember that you have to attention to the ins, and outs of routing switchers on all levels when you build this list.
Page 61
3. Set Level Table (Menu Item [E]) This is the step where you assign what levels you want each name or label to be assigned to. You also assign the names of the various levels (here SDI, AES, and AUD are used). The information entered here was derived from figure 7.
Page 62
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures 4. Physical Assignment (Menu Item [L]) Now we actually associate the labels or names to a physical routing switcher input or output. Assign the physical source/destination number and the physical level to the virtual source/destination name and the virtual levels using the menu item [L : SET PHYSICAL ASSIGNMENT].
Page 63
Additionally, an individual routing switcher can be divided in 2, or more virtual routing switchers. This means that one level can be made to look like 2, or more levels. In our example our 3 level routing switcher could have the AES/EBU routing switcher split into 2 virtual levels. Our 3 routing switcher system would now have 4 levels.

Page 67
Instead of one large routing switcher, there are often 2 separate routing switchers. One handling 4:2:2, and the other 4fsc. The output of the 4:2:2 would cascade through the 4:2:2 to 4fsc converters, and on to the inputs of the 4fsc routing switcher. The opposite configuration would be set up for going from 4fsc to 4:2:2.
Page 68
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures 9. Description Name (Menu Item [J]) In addition to Type + Number names, letter names (16 letters can be displayed on the BKS-R3281, most through only display 7) can be used. This is called a “Description name”. To set to Description names mode, select DESCRIP.NAME using the menu item [J : NAME STYLE].
Page 69
4-4. Basic Setup Procedures 10. Control Panel Setup (Menu Item [R]) Each individual control panel is contacted, and programmed by selecting [R] in the setup menu, and then by entering the S-BUS address of the desired panel. If the control panels are enabled in the menu item [Z : SET UNIT DETECTABLE], this might help you identify the panels address in question.
