Installation Static Discharge Whenever handling the ADC-9032 and other related equipment, please observe all static discharge precautions as described in the following note: ESD Susceptibility — Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive semiconductor devices. Avoid handling circuit boards in high static environments, such as carpeted areas, and when wearing synthetic fiber clothing. Always exercise proper grounding precautions when working on circuit boards and related equipment.
adhesive is very aggressive and is not easily removed. The adhesive will cure fully in 24 hours. To install Surface Mount Strips 1. Remove the Protective Backing Film from the adhesive on the bottom of the two VELCRO® brand Surface Mount Strips. 2. Adhere the Surface Mount Strips to the bottom side of the chassis. (Figure 2) Figure 2 Surface Mount Installation Option 3. Remove the Protective Backing Film from the other side of the VELCRO® brand Surface Mount Strips. 4.
To install the Flat Metal Plate 1. Affix the flat metal plate to the bottom of the chassis using the chassis screws as shown in Figure 3. Figure 3 Flat Metal Plate Installation Option 2. Affix the metal plate by the two extended holes to the desired location with customer supplied bolts or screws according to the installation requirements. Non-Slip Pads Four non-slip adhesive pads have been supplied for desktop placements.

Setup Power Adaptor and Supply Connect the PS-9000 power adaptor to the power supply connector. The PS-9000 provides regulated +5V DC (5%) @ up to 2A. The DC power cord has a locking connector that securely fastens into the power supply DC jack on the ADC-9032. The ADC-9032 has a standard miniature power jack (center pin positive).
Status and Selection LEDs The front panel of the module has four LEDs that display the status of the input signals, and indicate menu function and configuration selections. The LED locations are described in Figure 6.

b.For menu items that have multiple selections, the LED will be in a state as indicated in the Function Setup and Configuration Menu. For menu items that have a range, the descriptions are provided in Table 2 on page 16. Setup (Iss.
Configuration Use the Function Select switch and the Down and Up buttons to configure the ADC-9032 to convert analog video signals to SDI. Settings are described in the section “Function Setup and Configuration Menu Table” on page 16. Refer to Figure 7 for switch and button locations.
2. To change Video Standard configuration to PAL (625/50): • Keep the Function Select in Position 0. • Press the Down button once. • The DOWN LED will be unlit and the UP LED will be lit, to indicate PAL (625/50) configuration selection. Function Setup and Configuration Menu Table A single press of the Down and Up buttons is a “momentary” click of the button unless indicated by “(h)”.

Auto Gain Use this menu to automatically try to compensate for any perceived gain deficiencies. Auto Gain is based on sync amplitude. Standard/VTR Mode This menu enables the module to convert either broadcast quality or non-broadcast quality analog input signals independently, selectable according to the level of the video quality to be received. The level of conversion quality required for a non-broadcast VTR signal is different than a broadcast signal.
Setup On If the incoming analog composite video has Setup, then this user-controlled setting should be set to On. If there is no Setup on the incoming analog composite video, then this user-controlled setting should be set to Off. This setting controls how the decoder will scale the analog video, and where it will set black in the digital domain. The default setting for this control is determined by the standard in use, with NTSC and PAL-M defaulting to On, with the DOWN LED unlit, and the UP LED lit.
Status Report This menu selection is primarily for Ross Video use. If an on-board error has occurred with the ADC-9032, this menu item will provide some indication as to the nature of the problem. In Status Report mode, the DOWN and UP LEDs will flash at the same time and the number of consecutive flashes will indicate the type of error. A simple single flash followed by a long pause before repeating means no error is reported. If multiple flashes occur, record the number of flashes.
