Setting Jumpers
The ENC/ENS6800+ module has three jumpers that you need to set: J3 (See Jumper J3 for Local or Remote Control on page 12) J1 (See Setting Jumper J1 for Genlock Source on page 13) P1 (See Setting Jumper P1 for Reclocking and IO_DELAY Output on page 14)
Figure 2-1. Location of the J3, J1 and P1Jumpers
Jumper J3 for Local or Remote Control

Note
You need to configure modules for local or remote operation prior to power-up. To change the configuration, first remove power from the module, reset the jumper, and then reapply power. The white triangle near the jumper pins on the module indicates pin 1.
Follow this procedure to set the J3 jumper for either local or remote control: 1. Locate jumper J3 on the module (beside the extractor handle). Figure 2-1 shows the standard location of the J3 jumper.
12
2. Place a jumper on pins 1 and 2 to set the module for Remote control or pins 2 and 3 to set the module for Local control. See Figure 2-2.
Remote control setting
Local control setting
Figure 2-2. Jumper J3 Settings for Local and Remote Control
Setting Jumper J1 for Genlock Source

Follow this procedure to select the Genlock source by setting the J1 jumper to either Local or Frame mode: 1. Locate jumper J1 on the module. See Figure 2-1 on page 12. 2. Place a jumper on pins 1 and 2 if the genlock source is from the local back connector (L) or pins 2 and 3 if the genlock source is from the frame (F). The frame genlock is available only with the FR6802+ frame.
Local mode
Frame mode
Figure 2-3. Jumper J1 Settings for Local or Frame Mode The genlock source is not only selected by the J1 jumper setting described above, but by the Reference Input Select parameter setting you make in Bank 0, rotary switch setting D (see Table 3-3: Card-Edge Parameter Options ENC/ENS6800+ Modules on page 22). Parameter setting options include the following: Genlock 1 (labeled 525 on the rear module)/ Frame Genlock: If this setting is chosen, then the genlock source must come from either the Genlock 1 input of the rear module (labeled 525) or from
13
the FR6802+ frame genlock input. This is determined by the position of jumper J1 on the ENC6800+ or ENS6800+ module as shown in Figure 2-3. Genlock 2 (labeled 625 on the rear module): If this setting is chosen, the genlock source will be taken from the Genlock 2 input of the rear module and is independent of the jumper J1 setting. Auto: Varies between Genlock 1/Frame and Genlock 2 genlock. This is used if the card is expected to auto-switch between an NTSC or PAL-M reference and a PAL-B reference based on the video input. In this case one reference input would be applied to the Genlock 2 input, and the other reference input would be applied to either Genlock 1 or Frame. Then when the input signal changes between SD 525 and SD 625, the genlock will automatically switch to the appropriate genlock source. Remember that jumper J1 determines whether Genlock 1 or Frame is the source of the first genlock input (see Figure 2-3).
Note
Even though the rear module is labeled 525 for Genlock 1 and 625 for Genlock 2 either type of standard can be applied to either of the inputs. They are not 525 or 625 dependent. However the same type of genlock format (NTSC or PAL-B) should never be applied to both genlock input sources at the same time.
When the genlock source input is valid, the Genlock LED will turn green. If you are using an ENS6800+ and the Genlock LED never turns green, ensure that the Frame Sync Mode parameter is not set to Delay.
Setting Jumper P1 for Reclocking and IO_DELAY Output

Follow this procedure to set the P1 jumper to select Reclocked SDI or IO_DELAY output to a BNC output connector on the back module: 1. Locate jumper P1 on the module. See Figure 2-1 on page 12. 2. Place a jumper on pins 2 and 3 to set the module for SDI RCLK, or place a jumper on pins 1 and 2 and another jumper on pins 3 and 4 to set the module to output IO_DELAY.
Note
The ENC6800+ does not have IO_DELAY.

Installing 6800+ Modules

Caution
Before installing your modules, see the Maximum 6800+ Frame Power Ratings chart at the beginning of this chapter.
There are two types of modules: Double-slot back connectors Front modules
Back connectors for this module come in the double-slot size. Up to ten front modules can fit in an FR6802+ frame if they are connected to double-slot back connectors (two spaces are required to accommodate the extra width of the back connector). You can install most 6800+ modules in any unused slot without interfering with other frame functions.
Making Connections
Once you have installed the ENC/ENS6800+ module, you can connect it to the appropriate input and outputs. See Figure 1-2 on page 6 and Figure 1-3 on page 7.
Removing 6800+ Modules

Note
Modules are hot-swappable and can be removed or replaced without powering down the frame.
To remove a module from an FR6802+ or 6800/7000 series frame, follow these steps: 1. Pull out the finger-release screws on the right and left side of the front panel, and then open it. 2. Grasp the extractor handle on the installed module, and then pull the module out of its slot using the handle as a lever. 3. Close the front panel to ensure proper frame ventilation. 4. Remove the back connector from an FR6800+ frame in this way: a. Unscrew the top of the corresponding back connector, and tip it towards you.
15
b. Pull the bottom lip of the back connector from its slot.
Caution
To prevent overheating during general frame operation and maintain proper airflow, keep the front panel closed and all back connector slots covered during operation.
c. Reinstall a new or blank back connector in the empty slot to ensure proper frame ventilation. 5. Remove the back connector overlay from the back panel of a 6800/7000 series frame. Replace with a new back connector overlay, if required.

Table 3-2 Parameter Options describes all of the parameter settings for the ENC/ENS6800+, including the original factory defaults. To return this module to its default settings, you can either reset each parameter individually or do a global recall following this procedure: 1. Rotate the hex switch to 0. 2. Toggle the navigation switch to the bank number 0. Use the control LEDs to verify which bank you have selected, or use an available 6800+ software control option (serial/local or Ethernet/remote) to aid in confirming your bank selection. 3. Rotate the hex switch to the global recall parameter F. 4. Toggle the navigation switch to On. Use an available 6800+ software control option to aid in viewing, setting, and confirming the parameter value.
Reading Software and Hardware Versions

The current software version of your ENC/ENS6800+ module can only be viewed using a CCS-enabled control panel or a CCS software application, such as Pilot or +Pilot Lite. See your RCP-CCS-1U Installation and Operation Manual, CCS software application user manual, or CCS software application online help for information on viewing software and hardware version numbers.

Cross-Color Reduction Filter

This section describes the cross-color reduction filters that are available for the ENS-6804 board. The filter responses and characteristics are limited to the structure of the custom FIR filter ASIC. These are 12-bit coefficients with 15-tap folded FIR.
Filter Summary
The implementation of each Cross-Color Reduction filter consists of two filters: a vertical high pass filter and a horizontal high pass filter. The frequency response of the vertical HPF is fixed and is non-programmable, while the horizontal HPF is programmable. Table A-1 summarizes the selectable horizontal high pass filters. The values are the approximate bandwidths for the application. Examine the filter plots for greater detail. Table A-1. Bandwidth of Cross-Color Reduction Filters Horizontal Pass Filters

ENC/ENS6800+ Troubleshooting
Overview
The following checklists will help you solve some of the most commonly seen issues. It is split into the following two sections: Genlock Issues on page 48 Output Issues on page 51
For best results, use + Pilot Lite software to check settings and parameters if housed inside an FR6802+ frame. + Pilot Lite software is installed on a PC that connects to the 6800+ frame via the serial port connector at the rear of the frame, and can be downloaded from www.broadcast.harris.com/leitch. Use a null modem RS-232 cable to connect between the PC and the 6800+ frame.
47
Genlock Issues
If the ENC/ENS6800+ cannot lock to genlock, proceed through the following checklist: 1. Check that the Reference Input Select parameter is properly set. There are three choices: Genlock 1/Frame Genlock - When this setting is chosen, the genlock source must come from either the Genlock 1 input (labelled 525) of the back module or from the FR6802+ frame genlock input. This is determined by the position of jumper J1 on the ENC/ENS6800+ module. Set to pins 1 and 2 for Genlock 1 input and pins 2 and 3 for FRAME input, as shown below.
Note
Although the ENC6800+ does not have a frame synchronizer, it still uses the Genlock input for correct color framing on the composite outputs. The ENC6800+ cannot be upgraded to an ENS6800+ in the field.
Figure B-1. Genlock Mode Jumper Locations and Settings
Note
The back module has Genlock 1 labeled 525 and Genlock 2 labeled 625. Despite this inaccurate labeling, Genlock 1 can accept an NTSC, PAL-M or PAL-B reference and is not limited to NTSC only as the labeling implies. The same is true for the Genlock 2 input.
Genlock 2 - If this setting is chosen the genlock source will be taken from the Genlock 2 input (labelled 625) of the back module and is independent of the jumper setting. Auto - If this setting is chosen, the genlock source will vary between Genlock 1/Frame and Genlock 2 genlock. Use this setting if the card is expected to auto-switch between an NTSC or PAL-M reference and a PAL-B reference based on the video input. In this case an NTSC reference would be applied one Genlock input and a PAL-B reference applied to the other. Then when the input signal changes between NTSC and PAL-B, the genlock will automatically switch to the appropriate genlock
48
source. Remember that the jumper determines whether Genlock 1 or the Frame is the source of the second genlock input (see Figure B-1 on page 48).
Note
The same type of genlock format (NTSC, PAL-M, or PAL-B) should never be applied to both genlock input sources at the same time.
When the genlock input is valid, the D7 Genlock LED on the card edge will turn green. 2. (ENS6800+ only) Check that the Frame Sync Mode parameter is set to Sync mode. If this parameter is set to Delay, it will not synchronize the video to the genlock reference. 3. Check that the Genlock Mode parameter is not set to Free Run mode. If this parameter is set to Free Run, the video will not synchronize to the genlock reference. 4. Check that the SDI Video Standard parameter is set to the correct standard for the current video input. This parameter is normally left in Auto mode where it will automatically switch between 525 and 625 SDI video standards as the input changes. However if this is forced into 525 or 625, then the genlock input must match the chosen standard. For example, if 625 mode is selected but an NTSC reference is present on the genlock input, the unit will not genlock or synchronize.
Note
Bent pins may also cause communications issues with Pilot Lite, Pilot or Navigator.
5. If the first four items are correct on your module, the next thing to check is the back module. Follow these steps: a. Unplug the front module. b. Unscrew and remove the back module.
49
c. Check that the 20 pin spring connector at the bottom of the back module does not have any bent or pressed in pins. (See Figure B-2.) Even a slightly depressed or bent pin may cause genlock issues.
20-pin connector
Figure B-2. Back Module to Front Module Connector d. If there are bent pins carefully re-position them to their correct positions. If this is not possible then the back module can be exchanged for a new one. Use part number ENC/ENS6800+DR. 6. If the ENC/ENS6800+ can still not be genlocked, attempt doing a Factory Recall on the module.
50
Output Issues
If the SDI output has issues such as no output, unstable output or frozen output, proceed with the following checklist. 1. Check that the Video Output Standard Set parameter is set correctly. If a 525 SDI input is present, then the valid output standard choices are NTSC or PAL-M. If PAL-B is chosen but NTSC is desired, the module will not pass good video. 2. (ENS6800+ only) - If the video output appears to be frozen, check that the Freeze Enable parameter is not set to Enable. When this parameter is set to Enable, the ENS6800+ will freeze the last video frame or field that was received. 3. (ENS6800+ only) - If the video output appears to be stuck on a test pattern, check that the Test Signal Enable parameter is not enabled. 4. If Closed Captioning on Line 21 does not appear to be picked up by CC decoders or is intermittent, ensure that the Line 21 VBI parameters are set to Luma only. This bypasses any cross color artifacts that may occur. a. First go to the Field Select parameter and select Field 1. b. Go to the Line 21 VBI parameter and select Luma only. c. If there is Closed Caption 2 (CC 2) on Field 2 then go back to the Field Select parameter and choose Field 2 and repeat step b. If the CC decoder still has problems decoding the closed captioning, check that there is no setup on Line 21. Go to the Setup Starting Line parameter and set it to 22 so that setup is not added to Line 21. 5. If the output is still not valid, try doing a Factory Recall. 6. Check the Module Status LED on the card edge. If it is flashing red, there is a likely hardware or firmware fault. Contact Customer Service. If after going through this checklist the ENC6800+ or ENS6800+ module still does not operate as expected, contact customer service for further assistance. Send an email to service@leitch.com.

Pilot Lite Fails to Communicate with Installed Modules

Confirm that the following items are not the reason for the communication failure: Proper module slot has not been specified (+ Pilot Lite is not communicating with the appropriate slot). See your FR6802+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information on slot identification. COM port is used elsewhere (Check that the correct COM port is configured in + Pilot Lite and that another application is not using that COM port). Actual frame ID does not match with the two DIP switch settings in the back of the frame (+ Pilot Lite is not communicating with the proper frame). See your FR6802+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information on frame ID switch settings. A null modem cable is not being used. Between the PC running + Pilot Lite and the FR6802+ frame, there should be a null RS-232 modem cable. At minimum, this requires that pins 2 and 3 are crossed and 5 to 5 for ground. ICE6800+ module is installed in the frame (+ Pilot Lite control is disabled if an ICE6800+ module is installed in the frame; ICE6800+ modules are used for CCS control).
55
A legacy 6800 series product is in the frame. + Pilot Lite cannot communicate with legacy 6800 series products. They will not be discovered or controlled by + Pilot Lite, although they can be installed in the FR6802+ frame and work using card edge controls. The module must be from the 6800+ product family. Check that the back module does not have any bent pinsFollow this procedure: a. Unplug the front module. b. Unscrew and remove the back module. c. View the 20-pin spring connector at the bottom of the back module. See Figure C-1.
20-pin connector
Figure C-1. Back Module to Front Module Connector This connector should not have any bent or pressed pins. Even a slightly depresssed or bent pin may cause genlock issues. d. If there are bent pins, carefully re-position them to their correct positions. If this is not possible, then a back module can be exchanged for a new one. +
Pilot Lite Does Not Find All Modules in Frame

If a discovery is started too soon after frame power-up, + Pilot Lite will not find all the installed modules. Refresh + Pilot Lite (File > Refresh), and ensure that installed modules are fully powered-up before discovery.
56
If a module is plugged into the frame after a discovery, + Pilot Lite does not automatically detect the module. Refresh + Pilot Lite (File > Refresh) to discover the newly installed module. If a Legacy 6800 series product is in the frame, + Pilot Lite will not detect it. + Pilot Lite cannot communicate with legacy 6800 series products. Although they can be installed in the FR6802+ frame and work using card edge controls, they will not be discovered or controlled by + Pilot Lite. For + Pilot Lite to find a module, it must be from the 6800+ product family. +
Pilot Lite or CCS Software Application Not Responding

+ Pilot Lite and CCS applications such as Navigator or Pilot cannot run on the same PC at the same time. Both applications can be installed, but only one can be opened at a time.
Pilot Lite Cannot Control a Module Showing in the Control Window

Consider these questions: Did you physically set the jumper for local control? If so, set this jumper to the REM position for remote control. Is the module properly seated in the frame, and in the right slot? Check the positioning of the module in its slot in the frame. Does the Control window indicate the device is ready? The device may be powered off or disconnected from the network. See + Pilot Lite Status Bar Reports Not Ready on page 57.
Pilot Lite Status Bar Reports Not Ready

+ Pilot Lite reports each devices connection status in the status bar. If the connection status message reads Not Ready, check the following: Is the module properly seated in the frame? Check the position of the module in the frame. Is the frame connected to the network? Check the devices network connection. For + Pilot Lite, an RS-232 null modem cable is required between the PC and the FR6802+ frame.
If the status bar still reports no status or Not Ready for the frame or device, try restarting + Pilot Lite.
57
CCS Software Application or Remote Control Panel Does Not Communicate with Module
CCS software applications (such as Pilot, CoPilot, and Navigator) and remote control panels require the purchase and installation of an ICE6800+ module in an FR6802+XF frame in order to communicate remotely via Ethernet.
Alarm Query Fails When a Device Reboots

When you reboot a device connected to your PC, the alarm traffic and status update messages may cause an alarm query request to time out and fail. While the query does not automatically retry, it will post an Alarm query failed message to the Diagnostics window. To clear an Alarm query failed message, right-click inside the Diagnostics window, and then select Refresh from the resulting context menu.
