Configuration and Operation<br />
Configuration for all <strong>NK</strong> devices is via the Phoenix Control<br />
Surface or a web browser. Each router level may be divided<br />
into smaller partitions that may be assigned to a unique or<br />
common switching level.<br />
Operation is via any <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> remote control panel,<br />
the Phoenix Control Surface or <strong>NK</strong>-VCP virtual control<br />
panel. Every key of each <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> remote control panel<br />
is configurable to enable panels to be customised for the<br />
project or the operator.<br />
Phoenix is a simple-to-use, highly visual GUI. With Phoenix,<br />
the full capabilities of the <strong>NK</strong> system are available from your<br />
PC, including configuration of all router levels and remote<br />
control panels, monitoring and system control.<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-VCP virtual control panel enables users to remotely<br />
control an entire <strong>NK</strong> system, making crosspoints as easy as<br />
a mouse click!<br />

The T-Bus Control System<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-IPS Network Bridge is connected to other <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong><br />
devices via the Codan Broadcast T-Bus control system,<br />
a multi-drop RS-485 control system supporting collision<br />
detection and half-duplex communication. The T-Bus control<br />
system minimises cable connections between devices, acting<br />
as both the communications line and a reliable means to<br />
phantom power <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> devices, such as the RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1, the<br />
<strong>NK</strong>-SCP/A and the <strong>NK</strong>-GPI.<br />
The T-Bus control system’s collision detection support ensures<br />
that if two devices transmit messages at the same time they<br />
will not send incorrect data to other devices on the line. All<br />
components that utilise the T-Bus Control System are able<br />
to monitor communication on the line to ensure that no<br />
two devices are transmitting at the same time, maximising<br />
reliability and minimising the risk of communication errors.<br />
Router Flexibility<br />
The <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> of routers may be configured with multiple<br />
partitions, effectively making two or more smaller routers from<br />
the one frame. Partitioning enables a flexible routing solution<br />
for applications where multiple switches must be activated<br />
on the one level. Partitions configured on the analogue<br />
video level enables users to configure single routers to switch<br />
independent YUV or RGB signals simultaneously. For the<br />
analogue and digital audio levels, users can partition routers<br />
to switch simultaneously when using multiple language<br />
streams.<br />

Kondor 2<br />
Large Scale Router Levels<br />
Overview<br />
Codan Broadcast’s <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> of routers extend to sizes up to<br />
256 x 256 through the use of Kondor 2 router levels.<br />
The Kondor 2 provides a trusted and proven routing<br />
switcher capability in its own right. Many hundreds of<br />
Kondor 2 systems have been used worldwide in outside<br />
broadcast vans, production, post-production and studio<br />
environments, encompassing the most sophisticated and<br />
demanding applications. The Kondor 2 is engineered with<br />
no active components fixed inside the frame. The flexibility<br />
of the Kondor 2 is the uniquely engineered architecture of<br />
the 8-channel and 16-channel I/O cards and the innovative<br />
free-form backplane.<br />
The Kondor 2 offers users the ability to mix and match video,<br />
SDI, HDTV (SD/HD multi-definition), audio and AES/EBU<br />
signals —all in the same high-density rack frame.<br />
A 5 RU frame houses 25 modules. Multiple frames may be<br />
joined together for large configurations. Each frame slot can<br />
house input or output cards, a matrix switching core or a<br />
power supply, giving maximum flexibility to customers.<br />
All devices in a Kondor 2 frame (I/O cards, matrix switching<br />
cores and power supplies) are hot swappable without taking<br />
the router off-line and without removing any signal cable.<br />
In addition, users can move from SDI to HDTV eight inputs/<br />
outputs at a time—all at nominal cost.<br />

A 1 RU fan system with front removable fan tray is located on top or bottom depending<br />
on cooling needs. The fan trays slide out for service and replacement while the system is<br />
operational. Three high efficiency fans draw air in through the filtered front door, through<br />
the power supplies, up through the cards, and exhaust via the back and sides. Other<br />
cooling options are available for systems made up with multiple frames.<br />
With the Kondor 2 router levels, the <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> of routers now provides capacity from<br />
the smallest applications through to the very large; all in a modular fashion. The full<br />
capabilities of the <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> systems are available when using Kondor 2 router levels,<br />
including the Phoenix Control Surface, <strong>NK</strong>-IPS network bridge, <strong>NK</strong>-VRC virtual routing<br />
core and <strong>NK</strong>-GPI interface. Naturally, all <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> remote control panels may be used as<br />
well as Geneos control panels via the <strong>NK</strong>-JBX interface.<br />

Overview<br />
The RCP-<strong>NK</strong>Q remote control panel offers 17 coloured<br />
backlit graphic LCD keys with multiple menus, enabling users<br />
to instantly navigate through the system with few key presses.<br />
The press of a menu key in the main menu opens a submenu,<br />
which refreshes the panel keys with new functions and<br />
labels.<br />
Assignment of navigation keys enables quick access to menus.<br />
Custom key labels (up to 10 characters across 2 lines), icons<br />
and colours can also be defined by the user for instant<br />
recognition of any key function. The colours and functions<br />
of the keys are set up using the Phoenix Control Surface,<br />
then this configuration document is sent to the panel. This<br />
eliminates unauthorised or accidental reprogramming.<br />
The RCP-<strong>NK</strong>Q is ideal for use on Outside Broadcast vans<br />
or in production houses where configurations change<br />
regularly. It is equally as useful in studios where the unlimited<br />
configurations enable fast and simple customised setups of<br />
each panel.<br />

RCP-<strong>NK</strong>M<br />
Remote Control Panel<br />
Overview<br />
Each of the 40 keys of the RCP-<strong>NK</strong>M remote control panel<br />
can be assigned from a range of switch functions in the<br />
Phoenix Control Surface. The back-lit 16 x 2 LCD provides<br />
a large source and destination status display. The fully<br />
illuminated keys also have removable clear polycarbonate<br />
caps to enable labelling. Backlighting enables the labels to<br />
be viewed in low-lit control rooms making the panel perfect<br />
for almost any application. The panel can be used with any<br />
size router as XY, cutbus or multi-cutbus. The panel may also<br />
control multiple router levels, either tied or as breakaways.<br />
The flexibility of the RCP-<strong>NK</strong>M means that even after major<br />
system changes, it can be fully reprogrammed without the<br />
limitations of fixed function panels. Each panel can be<br />
assigned to any portion of the router with an individual set of<br />
labels and panel layout.<br />

RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1 Remote Control Panel<br />
Overview<br />
The RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1 features 40 soft, fully programmable backlit<br />
keys arranged in a 32 + 8 configuration for convenient<br />
function key layout. The RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1 remote control panel can<br />
be used with any size router as XY, cutbus or multi-cutbus.<br />
The RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1 panel may also control multiple router levels,<br />
either tied or as breakaways.<br />
Connected via the T-Bus control system, the RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1 is<br />
phantom-powered by the router to which it is connected.<br />
Multiple control panels can be linked together and powered<br />
from the one router.<br />
One of the most useful and flexible features of the RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1<br />
remote control panel is the ability to install the front key panel<br />
locally to <strong>NK</strong>-16 routers. Localising RCP-<strong>NK</strong>1 remote control<br />
panels ensures that rack space is maximised and cable<br />
connections are minimised. Alternatively, installing panels<br />
remotely means that panels do not necessarily have to be<br />
installed in the immediate vicinity of the routers, and can be<br />
connected and installed in other rooms if required.<br />

<strong>NK</strong>-IPS Network Bridge<br />
Overview<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-IPS network bridge is the external gateway to all<br />
<strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> devices for configuration, firmware upgrades,<br />
monitoring and remote control.<br />
The full capabilities of the Phoenix Control Surface, a web<br />
browser or the <strong>NK</strong>-VCP virtual control panel are available<br />
from any computer when connected locally or through a<br />
network to the <strong>NK</strong>-IPS network bridge.<br />
The 8-port hub on the rear of the <strong>NK</strong>-IPS enables flexibility<br />
of installation and isolating groups of devices. In the event<br />
of a critical error, the 8 port hub and connection of devices<br />
in a star layout means that individual device failure does not<br />
affect the entire system.<br />
Alarm status and monitoring is displayed on the <strong>NK</strong>-IPS On<br />
line Devices web page enabling users to locate errors and<br />
troubleshoot problems.<br />
Applications<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-IPS network bridge is suited to environments where<br />
systems and devices must periodically be reconfigured, for<br />
remote control, or within environments where devices need<br />
to be locked to prevent changes in configuration.<br />
When coupled with the Phoenix Control Surface, a web<br />
browser or the <strong>NK</strong>-VCP virtual control panel, users have<br />
unparalleled versatility for device customisation, firmware<br />
upgrades, alarm display and system operation. At the same<br />
time, the <strong>NK</strong>-IPS can limit access through password control.<br />
The alarm status, visible from the Phoenix Control Surface<br />
or a web browser, shows warnings, and errors. Users can<br />
select the device to display information and a brief alarm<br />

<strong>NK</strong>-VRC Virtual <strong>Routing</strong> Core<br />
Overview<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-VRC offers a virtual routing solution to any <strong>NK</strong> routing<br />
swicther system. The <strong>NK</strong>-VRC offers up to 2 000 virtual source<br />
and destination assignments for the routing system, making<br />
it ideal for environments where resources may be added in<br />
the future.<br />
Virtual routing enables grouping of several physical inputs<br />
and outputs for a switch. The virtual routing capability of the<br />
<strong>NK</strong>-VRC allows the creation of virtual I/O assignments for up<br />
to 1 000 sources and 1 000 destinations.<br />
Users can configure the <strong>NK</strong>-VRC so that the <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> routing<br />
switcher system knows which physical input socket to use for<br />
each of the 32 levels and each virtual I/O assignment.<br />
Physical inputs and outputs may be assigned to more than<br />
one virtual label, resulting in a virtual routing table (physical<br />
source/destination and level combinations) larger than the<br />
actual system size.<br />

<strong>NK</strong>-RP1<br />
Redundant Power Supply<br />
Overview<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-RP1 offers a reliable, fault tolerant and fail-safe option<br />
for <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> routers and peripheral devices. The <strong>NK</strong>-RP1<br />
supplies redundant power to up to four routers and devices, to<br />
a total power consumption of 100 watts. The <strong>NK</strong>-RP1 provides<br />
GPI outputs to indicate alarms, in the event that one power<br />
supply has failed. The heartbeat LED on the front of the unit<br />
also blinks if one PSU has failed.<br />
During normal operation, the design of the <strong>NK</strong>-RP1 enables<br />
balancing of the power load, delivering high reliability to all<br />
connected routers and devices. When configured as a dualredundant<br />
positive and negative power supply, the <strong>NK</strong>-RP1<br />
has greater than 80% efficiency as a negative power source,<br />
providing both efficient and low-temperature operation.<br />
The <strong>NK</strong>-RP1 comes standard as a positive power rail supply.<br />
A negative power rail option may be installed as an upgrade<br />
by simply removing the front panel and inserting the <strong>NK</strong>-RP1-<br />
NEG option card (required for <strong>NK</strong>-A16/32 and <strong>NK</strong>-V16/32<br />

visual representation of the panel, allowing users to edit buttons easily<br />
with the mouse.<br />
When used with the off-line editing feature, custom modules enable<br />
users to get a feel for devices before they are connected to the system.<br />

In this distributed <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> routing switcher system,<br />
the Phoenix Control Surface in London can control<br />
or configure equipment located in Sydney.<br />
The <strong>NK</strong> Switchboard enables users to locally<br />
or remotely control an entire <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> routing<br />
switcher system. If required, it is also possible<br />
to control multiple systems, alternating between<br />
each as needed. Each system may be configured<br />
by the <strong>NK</strong>-IPS independently of other systems on<br />
the network.<br />
The <strong>NK</strong> Switchboard also allows users to protect<br />
outputs as well as providing machine control<br />
functionality. Each system may be configured<br />
on-the-fly to display and control almost any<br />
amount of inputs, outputs and levels.<br />
Any protected outputs are displayed on the<br />
<strong>NK</strong> Switchboard, including protects activated<br />
from control panels or other Phoenix users.<br />
The <strong>NK</strong> Switchboard<br />
The <strong>NK</strong> Switchboard provides users with a simple interface<br />
for crosspoint switching and router status display.<br />

Advanced Features<br />
The advanced features of the Phoenix Control Surface provide users with unique options for system<br />
management and control. The USB key provides secure access for engineers and system integrators.<br />
The save and restore function is especially useful for applications where devices need to be reconfigured<br />
regularly and quickly. Off-line editing allows users to edit device configurations while the system itself is<br />
on line or on air. Another significant feature of Phoenix is the ability to send one configuration to multiple<br />
devices, making it perfect for redundant applications.<br />
The File Explorer<br />
The File Explorer provides users with quick and easy access<br />
to saved device configurations and firmware files.<br />
Save and Restore<br />
The Phoenix Control Surface can save any number of system<br />
configurations to disk, making the <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> ideal for applications<br />
such as OB vans where significant and rapid configuration<br />
changes are required. Configurations may each be saved to a<br />
separate folder and recalled when required.<br />
Off-line Editing<br />
The off-line editing feature of Phoenix makes it the ideal solution<br />
when planning for growth of an <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> routing switcher system.<br />
Default device configurations may be accessed from the Phoenix<br />
Installation CD and edited before the device has been physically<br />
installed into the existing system.<br />
Secure Access<br />
The Phoenix USB key provides secure access for device configuration and system control. The USB key<br />
may be removed when users leave their workstation, without having to exit the program itself. This ensures<br />
that Phoenix can stay on line 24 hours a day if required, and the ability to change system configuration<br />
can be restricted to selected engineers.<br />
Upgrading Device Firmware<br />

Support for New <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> Devices<br />
Newly released and future products in the <strong>NK</strong> <strong>Series</strong> family can be edited straight away, but many new<br />
devices will have a custom module for easier configuration. Simply download the custom module for the<br />
newly purchased hardware module for an immediate start!<br />
The Phoenix Control Surface allows easy uploading of firmware to devices. New firmware may be<br />
downloaded from the Codan Broadcast website and displayed in the File Explorer in Phoenix.<br />

Automatic Software Updates<br />
Phoenix is composed of a series of independent modules, allowing each module to be updated without<br />
the need to update the program core itself. If a specific device module does require a core update for<br />
functionality, the dependency is resolved automatically when installing updates from the Update Centre.<br />
The Update Centre may be used to update the Phoenix Control Surface core modules, library modules,<br />
existing device modules as well as install new custom modules.<br />
Updates may also be installed manually if the updates have been downloaded directly from the Codan<br />
Broadcast website.<br />
The Automatic Update Check can be enabled to search the Update Centre for module updates,<br />
enhancements and additions, keeping Phoenix up-to-date when features are implemented.<br />
