5.12 Video mu ltiplexer Eneo
5.12.1 Description
The Eneo multiplexer allows the connection of 16 input videos, which are digitalized and shown as a composite
image at output. A spot service monitor supplies the display of one of the inputs.
Communication from keyboard to multiplexer is one-way. It is necessary to determine whether the connected
multiplexer is a black & white or colour model, since the specifications and protocols are different in the two
cases.
It is also possible to control the multiplexer indirectly, using a new generation video matrix (EKR-8/4, EKR-16/4).
This type of control is described in § 5.15 - Controlling the multiplexer using a video device, page 48.

The connection is of the RS485 type (one-way) and the maximum distance between keyboard and multiplexer is
1200 metres.
5.12.2.2 Multiplexer settings
The Eneo multiplexer is available in two versions that differ in their control protocol.
It can only be set up using the local multiplexer keyboard. Setup the RS485 communication mode, the baud rate
and A protocol.
See the respective manual.
5.12.2.3 Keyboard settings
While the keyboard is being set up, the

Control of a Eneo multiplexer
It is necessary to specify whether the multiplexer is a colour
model (
) or black & white ().
Four baud rate values are available.
It is only possible to connect one keyboard to each Eneo multiplexer, and therefore the identification number of
the keyboard is of no importance. More than one multiplexer can be controlled by the same keyboard, as long
as they are identified by different unit numbers.
