1.3 Important warnings

Important warnings:

• Maximum and minimum ambient temperature:The maximum ambient temperature for the LED wall is 60 °C, the minimum temperature is -20 °C.

• High leakage current:The combination of multiple FLX Power System DPR-2700 units and FLX-NNI Controller units in an installation results in in-creased levels of leakage current. In order to avoid risk of electric shock due to high leakage current, proper grounding of theinstallation is required.

• Flammable materials:Keep flammable materials away from the installation (such as curtains). A lot of energy is transferred into heat. The installationshould be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Proper ventilationmust be provided.

• Disconnect deviceA readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building installation wiring. See also chapter "Importantwarnings for the FLX Power System DPR-2700", page 7.

• Risk of electric shock / Risk of fire:To protect against risk of fire by overloading of power cables, MAXIMUM 256 FLX-24 pixels may be connected to one outputport of the FLX-HUB and MAXIMUM 8192 FLX-24 pixels may be connected to one power output socket of the FLX Powerchassis DPR-2700. The FLX Power System DPR-2700 must be connected to the local power net according the manufacturerspecifications and installation instructions delivered with the FLX Power System DPR-2700. If you are unable to install the ACrequirements, contact your electrician. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding.

• No self supporting power/data cablesThe FLX-24 Connector strings are not self supporting.

• This equipment MUST be earthed:In order to protect against risk of electric shock, the installation should be properly grounded. Defeating the purpose of thegrounding type plug will expose you to the risk of electric shock.

• Power system:It is recommended to use a TN-S power distribution system (a power distribution system with a separate neutral and groundingconductor) in order to avoid large ground current loops due to voltage differences in the neutral conductor. The total electricalinstallation should be protected by an appropriately rated disconnect switch, circuit breakers, over voltage protector and GroundFault Current Interrupters. The installation shall be done according to the local electrical installation codes. In Europe specialattention should be given to EN 60364, the standard for electrical installation of buildings. In Germany VDE 0100 should beadhered to. In America, special attention should be given to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

• Mains cords:The power cords delivered with this system have special properties for safety. They are not user serviceable. If the power cordsare damaged, replace them only with new ones. Never try to repair a power cord.

• Data cables:The data cables provided with this system have special properties for safety. They are not user serviceable. If the data cablesare damaged, replace them only with new ones. Never try to repair a data cable. Avoid exposure of data cables to accidentalcontact with lightning or power conductors.

• IP66 rating:The FLX-24 pixels, the FLX-HUB units and there connecting wires have an IP66 rating and are therefore totally protectedagainst dust and against high pressure water jets from any direction. Do not use these FLX products in an environment whichrequire a better protection rating then the rating it was designed for. The FLX Power System DPR-2700 and the FLX-NNIController units can only be used indoor in a dust free and dry environment.IP-ratings are defined by the IEC 60529 and this standard also explains in detail how the tests should be performed. Thisincludes the duration (time) which the equipment shall withstand water without damage or malfunction.Ingress Protection (IP) rating is identified by a code that consists of the letters IP followed by two digits and an optional letter.

6 dust tight no ingress of dust; complete protection against contact

6 water jets protected against high pressure water jets from any direction

The FLX-24 pixels, the FLX-HUB units and their connecting wires are designed for outdoor use under a protective roof (orsimilar arrangement) that prevents prolonged exposure to rain.The FLX-24 pixels, the FLX-HUB units and their connecting wires are not designed to be subjected to continuous rain, such asunprotected outdoor use. This requires a higher protection rating.

2.1 Mechanical requirements

Mechanical requirements for the FLX-24 pixelBarco offers different carrying systems for the FLX-24 pixel such as the FLX-P50, FLX-P100, FLX-N100, etc. These standard FLXcarrying systems allows a creative, flexible, fast and easy set up of the FLX-24 pixels. The mechanical installation requirementsdepend on the FLX carrying system used. Consult the installation manual, which comes with the FLX carrying systems, to know themechanical requirements of the FLX carrying system.

Next to the standard FLX carrying systems that Barco offers, you can design your own FLX carrying solution. The illustration belowshows the cutting dimensions for the FLX-24 pixel. For more information or help about FLX-24 pixel support grids, contact Barco.

Alignment of the FLX-24 pixelsIt is recommended that all pixels of the same display are equally oriented to avoid color deviations when looking at the display underextreme viewing angels. There are two solutions to align the FLX-24 pixels easily.1. The first solution is using a support plate with a (keyhole) cutout of the top side of the FLX-24 pixel. Note that the top side of

the FLX-24 pixel has a lid which can be used to orient all pixels equally. The drawing below shows the cutout dimensions (inmm) required for the top side of the FLX-24 pixel.

2. The second solution is using a support plate with one or two raised edges for the FLX-24 pixel socket. Note that the bottomside of the FLX-24 pixel socket has two straight edges (in parallel) which can be used to align the pixel socket. The center ofthe bottom side of the FLX-24 pixel socket is provided with a M3 mounting hole. The maximum depth of this mounting hole is6mm. The drawing below shows the dimensions (in mm) required for the bottom side of the FLX-24 pixel socket.

The metal plate where the pixel or pixel socket is mounted on, should be 1,5 mm thick. It is recommended to brush the support gridwith grain 120 to smooth away all burns.

CAUTION: Make sure when making your own support grid for the FLX-24 pixel that the support grid is pro-vided with the necessary attachment points to fasten the support grid.

10 R59770420 FLX-24 21/12/2009


2.2 Electrical requirements

Electrical requirements for the FLX-24 pixelThe power for the FLX-24 pixels is delivered by the FLX Power rectifiers DPR-2700 installed in the FLX Power Chassis DPR-2700.One FLX Power chassis DPR-2700, fully equipped with six rectifiers each delivering 2700 watt, consumes maximum 16200 watt.For that one FLX Power System DPR-2700 requires a nominal three phase AC input of 230V (delta connection) or 400V (starconnection), 50-60Hz.

The power cord to connect the FLX Power chassis DPR-2700 with the power net is not delivered with the FLX Power SystemDPR-2700. The customer must provide the correct type of power cord. The cross-sectional area of the conductors in the powersupply cord shall not be less than 6 mm² or 8 AWG for 400V star connection (L1/L2/L3/N/PE) or 10 mm² or 6 AWG for 230V deltaconnection (L1/L2/L3/PE). For more information see the installation manual included in the box of the FLX Power System DPR-2700.

All AC connections must be made per the latest issue of the National Electrical Code and must also conform to all local codes. TheAC supply must be installed by a qualified electrician in conformance to local codes. Hardware, wire sizes and conduit types mustcomply with local codes. To protect operating personnel, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommendsthat the cabinet be grounded. In no event shall the FLX Power System DPR-2700 be operated without an adequate cabinet groundconnection. An AC breaker must provide adequate isolation between the FLX Power chassis DPR-2700 input and Commercial ACMain.

The power consumption of the FLX-NNI Controller and the DX-100/DX-700 Digitizer is negligible compared to the power consump-tion of the FLX Power System DPR-2700. One FLX-NNI Controller consumes maximum 0,5 amps at 230VAC, 50Hz (100-240VAC;1-0,5A; 50-60Hz). One DX-100/DX-700 Digitizer consumes maximum 0,5 amps at 230VAC, 50Hz. Standard power cords (CEE orNEMA plug) are delivered with the FLX-NNI Controller and the DX-700 Digitizer.

The FLX system allows a physical split up of the control center, where the DX-100/DX-700 Digitizer and FLX-NNI Controller unitsare located, and the power center, where the FLX Power System DPR-2700 is located. This way the length of the power cables canbe shorten to reduce the loss of voltage over the power cables. Futhermore, the heat dissipation and the noise generation of therectifiers can be isolated and managed in a suitable area.

CAUTION: Prevent at all times that dust or dirt sticks to the O-ring of the FLX-24 pixel socket. In case theO-ring is damaged or contaminated with dust and/or dirt the IP66 rating can no longer be guaranteed. Notethat Teflon spray is applied to the O-ring to ensure a good sealing without risk of degeneration of the O-ring.

Do not let an FLX-24 pixel socket unused. Always install an FLX-24 pixel upon each socket in the pixel string.Keep the FLX-24 pixel upon the socket for storing.

ConnectivityThe FLX-24 Pixel can be plugged into a molded FLX-24 socket on a cable or into a FLX-24 socket witch is mounted on a strip (PCBboard). Barco offers two standard connector strings and two standard strips:

• FLX-24 connector string for 16 FLX-24 Pixels at a pitch of 16 cm. (R9899549: 1 piece)• FLX-24 connector string for 64 FLX-24 Pixels at a pitch of 16 cm. (R9899550: 1 piece)• FLX-S50 strip for 16 FLX-24 Pixels at a pitch of 50 mm. (R9899556B16: 16 pieces)• FLX-S25 strip for 32 FLX-24 Pixels at a pitch of 25 mm. (R9899555B16: 16 pieces)

R59770420 FLX-24 21/12/2009 17


The connector string and strips can be used together in the same FLX-24 pixel string. The plugs of the connector strings and stripsare from the bayonet mount locking mechanism. Up to 256 FLX-24 pixels can be connected in one string. Each FLX-24 pixel stringmust be connected via an FLX-24 converter cable (R9899553B8: 8 pieces) with one of the output ports of the FLX-HUB.

3.3 FLX-NNI ControllerIntroduction FLX-NNI ControllerThe housing of the FLX-NNI Controller has a width of 19” (480mm) and a height of 5,25” (133mm) which is the equivalent of 3 rackunits U (1U = 1,75” = 44,45mm). These dimensions makes the FLX-NNI Controller suitable to build in a standard 19” rack. Therear side of the FLX-NNI Controller is equipped with a power input socket (type C14) on which the required input voltage of 100-240VAC; 1-0,5A; 50-60 Hz (0,5 amps at 230VAC) is applied to. The FLX-NNI Controller is not designed for outdoor use and thus mustinstalled indoor.

The front side of the FLX-NNI Controller consist in an ON/OFF switch, an LCD display, a navigation button, one data input socket,two data output sockets, and eight data output ports (type RJ45). With the LCD display and navigation button you can retrieve/mod-ify several settings/values of the FLX-NNI Controller and of the connected FLX-HUB units. The data input socket (IN) has to beconnected with the output port of the DX-700 Digitizer or with one of the two data output sockets (TRU) of the previous FLX-NNIController. Each data output port can be connected to one FLX-HUB. The data output ports are numbered from 1 to 8, left to rightand top to bottom.

The FLX-NNI Controller can only be used with the new generation of DX digitizers like the DX-100 and DX-700 Digitizer. The re-syncunit detects the data stream applied to the data input socket. The controller extracts its required data from the incoming data stream.The extracted content if further processed and sent via the eight data output ports to the FLX-HUB units. Furthermore, the re-syncunit reinforces the incoming data stream and redirects the stream to the data output ports (TRU).

The standard data cable used between the FLX-NNI Controller units are of the straight type (not crossed). Because of this thedata input port is designed as “slave” port and the two data output ports are designed as “master” ports. The differences betweenthe “slave” and “master” ports is that the receiving and transmitting pins are switched. A data connection between two FLX-NNIController units must always be made between a “master” port and a “slave” port. Nevertheless, the data stream is bidirectional. Itis also important to know that the digitizer output is of the “master” type.

CAUTION: Barco uses HDMI connectors and cables, which allows a higher bandwidth for data communicationbetween the FLX-NNI Controller units and DX-700 Digitizer. Nevertheless, Barco does not use the standardHDMI protocol but their own communication protocol NNI (New Netebuk Interface). As a result the pin config-uration of the HDMI connector is different as well. Because of this never connect a device, having standardHDMI input or output ports such as an LCD display or a DVD player, with an FLX-NNI Controller unit or a DX-700Digitizer. Such a connection could be harmful for both Barco devices as for the standard HDMI devices.

Cables used with the FLX-NNI ControllerThe FLX-NNI Controller unit comes with an EU power cord and a US power cord.

Image 3-12 Image 3-13

Barco offers three lengths of NNI cables (HDMI plugs with latches) to connect the FLX-NNI Controller units with each other. Thedifferent lengths are 1 meter, 5 meter and 10 meter. Note that one NNI cable of 1 meter is delivered with the FLX-NNI Controller.

Image 3-14NNI cable of 1 meter with latch (R9854800: 5 pieces).



To connect the output ports of the FLX-NNI Controller with the FLX-HUB units Barco offers FLX-data cables with RJ45 plugs whichare equipped with IP66 protection shells. The FLX-data cables are not included because the length of these cables vary fromapplication to application. There are three lengths available: 20 meter, 50 meter and 100 meter.

Futhermore, Barco offers also an IP66 upgrade kit for the RJ45 plugs of a standard network cable. The standard network cablesused must be of the Cat 5 - STP type. Note that the maximum allowed distance between FLX-NNI Controller and FLX-HUB is 100meter. Only the RJ45 plug at the side of the FLX-HUB requires IP66 protection shells.

Gamma

The transfer characteristics of most cameras and displays are nonlinear. For a display, a small change in amplitudewhen the signal level is small produces a change in the display brightness level, but the same change in amplitude at ahigh level will not produce the same magnitude of brightness change. This nonlinearity is known as gamma. Differentgamma curves are available to compensate the nonlinearity.

The FLX-NNI Controller contains a default pixel stringconfiguration. This default configuration consist of 64 lines of 256pixels. The first 8 lines are applied to the data output port 1 (OUT1), the next 8 to port 2 (OUT 2) and so on. The first line on eachport goes to the first output of its connected HUB. The second lineto the second output and so on up to eight.

This default line/pixel configuration allows to view content or testpatterns on the pixels connected with the FLX-NNI Controller.The content displayed will be mixed up because the physicallocation of the pixels does probably not match with the defaultconfiguration.

The ’Restore settings’ is a very useful option to get back all thesettings of the FLX-NNI Controller in case of a replacement. Theresult is an image on the screen which is exactly the same asbefore. In other words, no ’Init replaced’ or ’Re-detection’ with theDirector toolset has to be done.

The option ’Restore settings’ is possible because the FLX-NNI Controller sends every 5 minutes all settingsof the FLX-NNI Controller to the flash memory of all connected FLX-HUB units. This way, a backup is made ofthe FLX-NNI Controller settings (Address, Board serial, Ctrl serial, Gamma, Contrast, etc. Excluding the pixelstring configuration map).

A backup is made of the ’pixel string configuration map’ during the upload of the design in the FLX-NNI Con-troller with the Director toolset. This backup is stored in the flash memory of the first detected FLX-HUB. So,only one of the connected FLX-HUB units contains the backup of the pixel string configuration map. Thismeans that you have to select this FLX-HUB which contains the backup of the map to restore all the informa-tion (map + settings). Otherwise, only the FLX-NNI Controller settings will be restored.

The ’Restore settings’ option has to be activated within 5 minutes after the power is switched on of the newFLX-NNI Controller. Otherwise, the new FLX-NNI Controller will overwrite the stored settings on all connectedFLX-HUB units with its settings. This will make the pixel string configuration map unavailable for restoring.

3.5 FLX-HUBIntroductionThe FLX-HUB is the interface between the FLX-24 pixel strings, the FLX-NNI Controller and the DPR-2700 power system. Powerfrom the DPR-2700 power system and data from the FLX-NNI Controller are brought together on the FLX-HUB for further distributionto the FLX-24 pixel strings.

The robust housing of the FLX-HUB has an IP66 protection rating which makes the FLX-HUB suitable for outdoor installations. TheFLX-HUB has one data input port (RJ45 socket), eight power/data output ports (one port per pixel string) and one multi pole powerinput socket. Eight power circuits, one power circuit per output port, enter the FLX-HUB via this multi pole power input socket. Thepower/data output ports are numbered and equipped with a protection cap. The data input port and the power/data output portshave a diagnostic LED for fast troubleshooting.

The FLX-HUB has an internal test pattern generator which can be activated via the user interface of the FLX-NNI Controller or viathe Director toolset. The Director toolset can be used to updated the software and firmware of the FLX-HUB as well.

Interesting to know is that all the FLX-HUB units contains a backup of the settings (address, gamma curve, board serial number, etc.)of the connected FLX-NNI Controller unit. Only the first detected FLX-HUB (first used output of the FLX-NNI Controller) contains thepixel string configuration map of the connected FLX-NNI Controller unit. Take this into account when replacing one of the FLX-HUBunits. Use the Director toolset to send a new ’backup’ of the pixels string configuration map to the replaced components.

CAUTION: A pixel string of maximum 256 FLX-24 pixels may be connected to one power/data output port ofthe FLX-HUB.

CAUTION: Make sure that an O-ring is present inside the socket of all Power/data output ports. Replacedamaged O-rings immediately.

Mounting accessories of the FLX-HUBDue to the versatility and creativity of FLX applications the FLX-HUB has to be mount in different environments (indoor, outdoor,hanging, etc.). For that Barco offers three different mounting brackets for the FLX-HUB:

• 19” rack mounting bracket for dual FLX-HUB.• Rental mounting bracket.• Fixed mounting bracket (fix install).

The 19” rack mounting bracket for dual FLX-HUB is included in the order package of two FLX-HUB units:R9856090B2.

3.6 FLX power system DPR-2700

IntroductionThe FLX Power System DPR-2700 consists of a chassis with two DC distribution shelves of three modular FLX Power RectifierDPR-2700 units and a Control and Supervisory Unit (CSU). The FLX Power System DPR-2700 requires a nominal three phase ACinput of 230V (delta connection) or 400V (star connection), 50-60Hz.

The rear side of the power chassis has two power output ports (multi pole sockets) which provide in 16 (2 x 8) protected circuits witha DC output of -54V.

One power output port of the FLX Power System DPR-2700 can power maximum 8192 FLX-24 pixels. The FLX Power SystemDPR-2700 has two power output ports, so one FLX Power System DPR-2700 can power maximum 16384 FLX-24 pixels. This largenumber of pixels can only be powered in case the total length of the power cables, from the power output port to the last FLX-24 pixelin the connector string, is limited. Otherwise, the voltage drop over the power cables will be too high and because of this disablingthe last FLX-24 pixels in the string.

FLX Power Rectifier DPR-2700The FLX Power System DPR-2700 contains 6 removable (not hot swappable) FLX Power Rectifier DPR-2700 units. One rectifiercan deliver 2700 Watt (50 ampere DC). In case a rectifier fails, the other rectifiers remain delivering there maximum power. Forvideo applications with typical video content the FLX Power System DPR-2700 will run at average 30-40% of its maximum. So, incase a rectifier fails it will probably not be visible during the event. The malfunction rectifier can be replaced after the event.

34 R59770420 FLX-24 21/12/2009


Image 3-27FLX Power Rectifier DPR-2700 (R9899432)

For critical lighting installations (100% brightness) where no interruption of the event can be afford, it is rec-ommended to reduce the maximum number of FLX-24 pixels per FLX Power System DPR-2700 (80%). So, incase a rectifier fails, the remaining power is sufficient to power the connected FLX system for 100%. Other-wise, it could be that the last pixels in the strings are underpowered which will be noticeable in the displayedcontent.

For monitoring and diagnostics of the FLX Power System DPR-2700 consult the operation manual of the FLXPower System DPR-2700.

Power cables and power splitter cablesBarco offers two lengths of FLX power cables, 5 and 25 meter. Only these power cables and the custom made power cables, whichmeets the requirements as described below, may be used to connect the FLX-HUB with the FLX Power System DPR-2700 (or otherBarco approved power system for FLX).

Barco offers also an FLX power splitter cable which has four output plugs. The normally eight protected circuits per output plug aresplit-up into two protected circuits per output plug. This means that more FLX-HUB units can be connected to the same FLX PowerSystem DPR-2700. However, take into account that maximum 8192 FLX-24 pixels per power output port of the FLX Power SystemDPR-2700 are allowed. With other words, maximum 256 pixels per protected circuit.

4.1 Set up process of an FLX display

Set up process:1. The first stage in the process is creating in the project in the Director toolset on the basis of a sketch of the creative concept which

you want to realize. A project exist in one or more configurations and each configuration exist in one or more designs of FLX-NNIController units. The designs can be the same or different from each other. Consult the user guide of the Director toolset formore detailed information on how to define a new project.

2. Install the FLX-24 pixels according your creative concept and realize the cabling of the FLX-24 pixels. Note that Barco offersseveral FLX carriers. See installation manual of the used carrier for detailed installation instructions of the FLX-24 pixels. Donot forget to place a protection cap on the last unused plug in the pixel string.In case the standard FLX-24 connector strings does not match with the concept of your creative design, contact Barco for moreinfo about customized FLX-24 connector strings with the pitch that meet your requirements.

3. Install the FLX-HUB units and connect these with the FLX-24 pixel strings. Each output port of the FLX-HUB must be connectedwith an FLX-24 converter cable. The FLX-24 connector string is connected with the output plug of the converter cable. TheFLX-HUB units can be installed in a 19” rack or on stage. See chapters "Mounting the 19” rack bracket on the FLX-HUB", page50 and "Mounting the rental bracket on the FLX-HUB", page 47. Up to 20 meter FLX-HUB output extension cables can be usedto connect the pixel strings with the input ports of the FLX-HUB units. See chapter "FLX-HUB", page 30.

4. Install the FLX-NNI Controller units and connect the data output ports with the data input ports of the FLX-HUB units. Note thatthe maximum allowed length of data cable is 100 meter.When using standard UTP cat 6 network cables, make sure that the RJ45 plugs of the network cables are provided with IP66protection shells. See chapter "Installing the RJ45 IP66 protection shells", page 51.

5. Connect the data IN and TRU ports of the FLX-NNI Controller units with each other. The maximum allowed length is 10 meter.6. Provide each FLX-NNI Controller unit with power.7. Install the DX-700 Digitizer, apply a source and connect the data output port of the digitizer with the input port of the first FLX-NNI

Controller unit in the system. See installation manual of the DX-700 Digitizer for detailed installation instructions.8. Install the FLX Power System DPR-2700 units and connect the power output sockets with the FLX-HUB units. Maximum 50

meter power cable is allowed. Take into account that one FLX Power System DPR-2700 unit can power maximum 16384FLX-24 pixels. Use a power splitter cable to split the power output in to four outputs. See chapter "FLX power system DPR-2700", page 34.Connect all FLX Power System DPR-2700 units with the power net. Make sure that the power net meets the requirements asstated in the chapter "Electrical requirements", page 11.

4.3 Mounting the FLX-24 pixel in its socket

Necessary toolsNo tools.

How to mount the FLX-24 pixel in its socket?1. Check if the socket is provided with an O-ring (red rubber ring).Note: “Interflon fluor grease 2” is applied to the O-ring at factory for an optimal sealing without risk for “stress cracking”. Only

these types of grease are allowed which do not result in “stress cracking”.

2. Approach the socket with the FLX-24 pixel. Make sure that the three positioning pins (reference 3) of the FLX-24 pixel are alignedwith mounting holes (reference 1) on the socket.Tip: One side of the pixel and the socket is marked with “stripes” (reference 2) and the other side with “dots” (reference 4).

These markings can be used for a quick alignment of the pixel on in the socket.

3. Press the FLX-24 pixel in its socket.

To remove the pixel, just pull it straight out of its socket. Or, place the blade of a screw driver in the spareopening at the bottom of the FLX-24 pixel and wriggle it out of its socket.

CAUTION: Prevent at all times that dust or dirt sticks to the O-ring of the FLX-24 pixel socket. In case theO-ring is damaged or contaminated with dust and/or dirt the IP66 rating can no longer be guaranteed. Notethat Teflon spray is applied to the O-ring to ensure a good sealing without risk of degeneration of the O-ring.

Do not let an FLX-24 pixel socket unused. Always install an FLX-24 pixel upon each socket in the pixel string.Keep the FLX-24 pixel upon the socket for storing.

5. Maintenance

5.3 Replacing the FLX-NNI Controller

What has to be done?The FLX-NNI Controller has to be replaced and the settings of the original FLX-NNI Controller have to be ’restored’ into the newFLX-NNI Controller. The result is an image on the screen which is exactly the same as before. In other words, no ’Init replaced’ or’Re-detection’ with the Director toolset has to be done.

The option ’Restore settings’ is possible because the FLX-NNI Controller sends every 5 minutes all settingsof the FLX-NNI Controller to the flash memory of all connected FLX-HUB units. This way, a backup is made ofthe FLX-NNI Controller settings (Address, Board serial, Ctrl serial, Gamma, Contrast, etc. Excluding the pixelstring configuration map).

A backup is made of the ’pixel string configuration map’ during the upload of the design in the FLX-NNI Con-troller with the Director toolset. This backup is stored in the flash memory of the first detected FLX-HUB. So,only one of the connected FLX-HUB units contains the backup of the pixel string configuration map. Thismeans that you have to select this FLX-HUB which contains the backup of the map to restore all the informa-tion (map + settings). Otherwise, only the FLX-NNI Controller settings will be restored.

The ’Restore settings’ option has to be activated within 5 minutes after the power is switched on of the newFLX-NNI Controller. Otherwise, the new FLX-NNI Controller will overwrite the stored settings on all connectedFLX-HUB units with its settings. This will make the pixel string configuration map unavailable for restoring.

How to replace the FLX-NNI Controller?1. Switch off the power of the FLX-NNI Controller which you want to replace.

2. Disconnect all network cables from the data output ports (RJ45) of the FLX-NNI Controller.Tip: Mark the network cables, prior to disconnecting, from 1 to 8 according the data output ports.

3. Disconnect the data cables from the data IN and TRU ports of the FLX-NNI Controller.

4. Disconnect the power cable from the power input socket at the rear of the FLX-NNI Controller.

5. Replace the FLX-NNI Controller and reconnect the power cable. Do not switch on!

6. Reconnect the data cables with the data IN and TRU ports of the FLX-NNI Controller.

7. Reconnect all network cables with the data output ports (RJ45) of the FLX-NNI Controller.

8. Switch on the power of the FLX-NNI Controller and start the ’Restore settings’ procedure within 5 minutes. Do this by brows-ing in the user interface of the FLX-NNI Controller to BARCO FLX ► This controller ► Restore settings and then start theprocedure by selecting the option ► Restore now.Note: By default the FLX-HUB is selected which contains the backup of the pixel string configuration map as well. Do not select

another FLX-HUB.

As a result the settings and map are retrieved from the connected FLX-HUB.
