Installation and Setup

Epica DGX 16 and Epica DGX 32 Instruction Manual

Important: If power is cycled on the enclosure, the USB connection must be reestablished. Remove

the USB cable and close the software application in use. Then reconnect the USB cable to the same

USB connector used previously and reopen the communication software.

Attaching Input and Output Cables

Input and output connectors are the attachment points for source and destination devices that connect to

the system. Viewed from the rear of the enclosure, the input boards (for attaching sources) are on the left,

and the output boards (for attaching destinations) are on the right.

Epica DGX 16 – Enclosures have 8 horizontal board slots (4 slots each for the input and the output

boards, with 4 connectors per board), allowing for a maximum configuration of 16x16 (FIG. 20).

Epica DGX 32 – Enclosures have 16 vertical board slots (8 slots each for the input and the output

boards, with 4 connectors per board), allowing for a maximum configuration of 32x32 (FIG. 21).

Connectors and Input and Output Channels

Epica DGX 16 – Input and output channels numbers correspond to the connectors and are located

between the input and output boards. For inputs, numbering is consecutive from left to right on each

board from the top board to the bottom one; outputs start over at 1 and follow the same pattern.

Epica DGX 32 – Input and output channels numbers correspond to the connectors and are located on the

numbering plate (metal strip) directly above the boards. For inputs, numbering is consecutive from top to

bottom on each board from the left board to right one; outputs start over at 1 and follow the same pattern

For board connector information and specifications, see the DGX SC Optical Board chapter on page 47

and the DGX DVI Board chapter on page 53.
