1 Introduction
The SW808 is an SDI and DVB-ASI compatible, 8 x 8 crosspoint routing switch.
Switch synchronisation is provided by either SDI or analogue references, allowing the
SW808 to switch in the vertical blanking interval to avoid picture disturbance. The
designated switching lines are 6 and 319 in 625 line systems and 10 and 273 in 525 line.
There is also provision to switch immediately for cases where there is no common
reference.
SW808 8 x 8 router
Individual crosspoints can be set and multiple crosspoint salvos can be created to change
a number of crosspoints at once. Up to 16 macros or custom routing table assignments
may be stored and recalled and up to 16 snapshots of the router table may be captured as
presets for later recall.
Control is available from the SW808 Controller panel, Statesman PC control Software, an
active control panel or the card edge. Names may be assigned to inputs and outputs from
Statesman and active control panels.
The main features are as follows:
•SDI 8 x 8 routing switch
•SDI or analogue reference
•Two feeds of each output
•Salvos, macros and router ‘snapshot’ presets
•Names may be assigned to inputs and outputs
•GPI selection of macros and presets
•Control and status monitoring via dedicated SW808 Controller, Statesman,
frame/remote control panels or the card edge

Crystal Vision Introduction
SW808 User Manual R1.8 4 22/12/2008
The SW808 Controller
The SW808 Controller is a dedicated 1U panel designed to control a single SW808 8 x 8
routing switch, with dedicated buttons for each of the eight sources and eight destinations.
SW808 8 x 8 router panel
Control is quick and easy: select output, select input and press the 'take' button.
Alternatively salvos can be created and stored to change a number of outputs at once.
GPI control of the first two destinations is provided with optional tally.
Rear connector options
The SW808 is a ‘double decker’ module that occupies two slots. It can be used in a 2U
frame with the RM19 rear connector or in a 1U frame and Desk Top Box by using the
RM20 rear connector.
When used with the four-slot RM19 rear connector all eight inputs and eight outputs are
available. The RM19 will only fit into a 2U rackframe allowing up to three SW808
modules.
When used with the two-slot RM20 rear connector eight inputs and three outputs are
available. Six modules will fit into a 2U rack frame, three in a 1U and one in a desktop
box.
The RM19 rear module has both SDI and analogue reference inputs, with an SDI
reference loop allowing a source to be wired as both a matrix signal input and a reference
input. The RM20 offers one reference input, switch selectable between SDI and analogue.
Further details of the rear modules can be found in the Installation Chapter.

2 The SW808 Controller panel
The SW808 Controller panel is designed to control the SW808 8 x 8 routing switch using
a RS422 serial link. The controller has dedicated buttons for each of the eight sources and
eight destinations together with a TAKE button and Salvo SAVE and RECALL buttons.
SW808 Controller panel
2.1 Installing the Controller
The SW808 has a number of external control lines that can be configured for GPI or
RS485 control. These control lines MUST be configured for RS485 to enable SW808
Controller communication as explained in section 6.5. It is NOT possible to retain GPI
control when the controller panel is enabled. However, the SW808 panel has its own GPI
control built in as described later in this chapter.
The panel communicates with Crystal Vision frames via a serial communication link
using the 422 BUS port at the rear of the panel. Standard UTP patch cables may be used
with an appropriate adaptor for the Crystal Vision frame remote connector.
SW808 Controller panel – rear view
The RJ45 422 BUS port is next to the GPI I/O connector. Other RJ45 connectors and the
four-way DIP switch are NOT used.
Each card slot in a frame has its control lines brought out to different 26-way D-type
frame remote connectors on the rear of the frame. The following tables show which
remote connectors to use for different frames and frame slots:
SW808 card slots and frame remote connectors

The appropriate remote connector(s) should be connected to the 422 Bus connector at the
rear of the panel using an adaptor, as explained in the next section.
Note: The second serial port on the SW808 is used for controller communications allowing front
panel and Statesman control at the same time as controller access.

Controller to frame remote wiring
The connection from the control panel to the appropriate frame remote connector has a
cable with a D-type plug at one end and an RJ45 connector at the other.
It is suggested that a short adaptor cable be made with a standard RJ45 patch lead and an
in-line coupler used to make the required overall cable length.

Note: The RJ45 connector at the rear of Indigo frames should not be used to connect controller
panels.
For the panel to work jumper links PL4-PL7 need to be fitted towards the rear of the board as
explained in section 6.5 This will disable GPI control of the SW808 module, but controller
GPIs will be available.

SW808 User Manual R1.8 8 22/12/2008
Using Controller GPIs
The Controller GPIs are provided to allow remote control of the first two destinations
with optional tally outputs.
There are 18 GPI lines, which can be configured as inputs or outputs. When used as
inputs they control source selection for destinations 1 and 2. They may also be used as
tallies when configured as outputs.
GPIs 1 –8 control destination 1 and are enabled by GPI 17.
GPIs 9 – 16 control destination 2 and are enabled by GPI 18.
With GPIs 1 – 8 enabled, selecting GPI 1 will set destination 1 to source 1, pressing GPI 2
will set destination 1 to source 2 etc… The same applies for destination 2 with GPIs 9 –
16.
The GPIs will also give a tally output so that when destination 1 is connected to source 4,
GPI 4 will be low. This tally will follow destinations 1 and 2, no matter from where the
routing is updated.
The pinout for the 26 way ‘D’ connector at the rear of the SW808 Controller panel is as
follows:
26-way D-type pin connections

1 +5V 10 GPI_6 19 GPI_14

9 +5V 18 GPI_13
Note: GPIs 19 and 20 are currently unassigned.

2.2 SW808 Controller operation
To use the SW808 Controller proceed as follows:
•Connect the SW808 Controller panel to a Crystal Vision frame with an SW808
module installed as explained in the previous section
•Power the Controller panel - the panel will automatically search for an SW808
module
SW808 Controller panel
Searching Mode
The panel indicates that it is in ‘searching mode’ by flashing the source and destination
buttons and LEDs in a back and forth pattern. Button presses will have no effect whilst
searching.
The panel will remain in ‘searching mode’ until it has established communications with a
SW808 board. If communication with a SW808 is lost, it will return to ‘searching mode’.
Panel LED Meaning when lit Comment
Ref Reference present. Composite/SDI reference selection cannot be made from the panel.
Comms Comms OK Illuminates to indicate communication with SW808.
Panel lock Panel locked All buttons are locked out. To toggle panel lock on and off hold down
source 1 button and destination 8 button for approximately 3 seconds.
Input
present Shows which paths
have signals The eight LEDs under the source buttons show video in to the SW808,
and the eight LEDs under the destination buttons show video out of the
SW808 and are therefore routing dependent.
Changing crosspoint assignments
To change routing, first press the destination button and then the new source button. The
new source button will flash and the TAKE button will light. Then press the TAKE button
and the new routing will be updated on the SW808. Where the output selection remains
unchanged any source may be selected and routed to that output by simply selecting the
source and pressing TAKE.
Tip: Always assign sources to destinations by first selecting a destination followed by a source to
route to that destination.
To undo routing that hasn’t been ‘taken’ press the destination and then the original
source. This will be the source button that is lit and not flashing.
Viewing crosspoint assignments
To see which source is connected to which destination, press the destination button and
the source connected to it will light. One source can go to more than one destination.
