Connecting the Monitor and A/B Switch Box

An upgrade to Intuity AUDIX Release 5 does not include a new monitor, unless ordered separately. Both the older and newer systems can use the same monitor during the upgrade. However, the systems must be relatively close to each other.

 

Note: If another monitor is available, this task is not required. Go to the next task in the procedure.

The monitor on the older system is equipped with a power cable and a video signal cable. The power cable has a male plug at one end and a female plug at the other end. One end of the signal cable has a video input connector, and the other end is permanently attached to the monitor.

To connect the monitor to both systems through the A/B switch box:

1. Turn off the video monitor.
2. Disconnect the video cable from the older system.
    
   

   Note: The video signal cable is attached to a female connector on the video controller card of the older system.

3. Attach the video cable from the older system to Position C on the A/B switch box. See A/B Switch Box Connections.
4. Attach one of the two video cables from the reusable upgrade kit (RUK) to the video controller circuit card in the older system. Tighten the thumbscrews on the connector.
5. Attach the other end of this video cable to Position A on the A/B switch box.
6. Attach the second video cable from the RUK to the video controller circuit card in the newer system and tighten the thumbscrews on the video cable connector.
7. Attach the other end of this video cable to Position B on the A/B switch box.
8. Connect power to the older system, the newer system, and the video monitor.


 


Note: If this is a MAP/5P upgrade, ignore the three-way power cable at this point. Connect the straight power cable to the back of the new MAP/5P.

9. Turn on the video monitor.
