Preliminary 8-2002 RSHD Smartcaster Installation Manual

Connect a keyboard to the Smartcaster control computer.

Connect the VGA monitor to the Smartcaster Control Computer.

Note that there is often a keyboard and mouse supplied for the RSHD box, these are

included by the supplier, and not strictly needed, but can be put away as spare parts.

Power

Connect the Main CPU, RSHD CPU, the VGA monitor and Wall Wart for the RIDZ to

the surge suppressor, and then the surge suppressor to the UPS. There are several schools

of thought to UPS systems, and the issue of running the monitor on the UPS or not. The

monitor will drain the UPS faster, but how long will the typical power failure last at you r

location? A UPS is designed for brief outages, and in those cases, interrupting the

monitor can be avoided by putting it on the UPS as well. If you have a standby power

source that takes a few minutes to get “on line” you may be well served by leaving the

monitor off of the UPS.

LAN Network

Connect the LAN cables from the RSHD and the Smartcaster control computers to the

Switch. Please note that the network LAN switch also needs to be kept in operation

during a power failure. See the above section of this guide for details. Be aware that

some Office Warehouse type stores often carry these cables in pre-made lengths, and for

short runs these may be more cost effective that making up your own cables. It might

also be worthwhile to call any local business telephone companies and have them bid on

installing all the network cables in new construction.

Keyboard / Video extenders

For short runs, adding an extension to a keyboard mouse or monitor may work just fine,

but much over ten feet, and a more active solution may be needed, in the appendix are

some pointers on CAT 5 KVM extenders.

Computer to RIDZ control

The Smartcaster control computer is currently in charge of the audio switcher. This

control is done with a 20-wire flat ribbon cable. This is also the same card that accepts

the closures inputs from relays or switches in the satellite receivers and consoles.

Connector One and Connector Two

CON1 connects to J1 on the back of the RIDZ Switcher. This is the flat gray 20-

conductor control line that enables the SMARTCASTER to give commands to the

switcher.
