Physical Description
Note
This page includes information regarding both the original Makito X1 chassis and the Makito X1 chassis v2. The Network connector and DC IN/IO connector on v2 have been changed in order to meet higher vibration requirements.
Following is a description of the Makito X1 interfaces, connectors, and LED status indicators:
The Makito X1 comes equipped with the following interfaces:
- DC In & I/O connector combining:
- Power (+5VDC, < 8 W),
- Analog audio inputs (Two (2) channels of analog audio -- 10K, 20K or 40K kOhms input impedance)
- Serial (RS-232/422 Port – can be used for Management, Pass-thru or KLV or CoT metadata ingest)
- CVBS/SDI connector → 75 Ω BNC (either analog CVBS (Composite Video Baseband Signal) or SDI video signal with format auto-detected)
- Network connector → 10/100/1000 Base-T Gigabit Ethernet; cable also includes a Reset button
The BNC connector is used for Composite (CVBS), SD-SDI (Serial Digital Interface) and HD-SDI video input signals. It is also a 3G-SDI capable interface supporting 1080p 50/60 fps video @ 3Gbps. In addition, the BNC connector supports auto-detection of the HD resolution and embedded digital audio.
LED Status Indicator
The LED color and flashing (blinking) speed indicate the status (operational state) of the encoder.
| Function | Description | Indication |
|---|---|---|
STATUS | Off | No power |
Green fast blinking | Reset button is pressed for less than four seconds. If the Reset button is not pressed, there is a power fault. | |
Green slow blinking | Booting/Initialization | |
Green solid | Booting/Initialization sequence is complete (No fault/OK). | |
Orange fast blinking | Reset button is pressed for more than five seconds (Factory Reset enabled). After Orange fast blinking, the LED turns off, stays off for a while, and then starts Green slow blinking towards the end of the booting up. |
