2 FC-321 - Getting Started

2 Getting Started

We recommend that you:

•Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging

materials for possible future shipment

•Review the contents of this user manual

•Use Kramer high-performance high-resolution cables

Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date

user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware

upgrades are available (where appropriate).

2.1 Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

•Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)

•Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

•Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality

•Position your Kramer FC-321 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and

dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

This section explains how to connect the FC-321.

Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your

SD/HD-SDI IN 1 connector.

2. Connect a digital video source (for example, a digital video player 2) to the

SD/HD-SDI IN 2 connector.

3. Connect the HDMI connector to an HDMI acceptor (for example, a plasma

display).

4. Using a small screwdriver, turn the SDI AUDIO GROUP SELECT rotary

switch to select an SDI stereo channel from 0 to 7.

5. Connect the 5V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the

adapter to the mains electricity (not illustrated in Figure 2).
