INTRODUCTION/PRODUCT OVERVIEW
This Operating Manual contains procedures and descriptive information for proper installation and
operation of the Datum 6504 IRIG-B Distribution module.
NOTE …
The 6504 is built in one of two chassis configurations: 6504A or 6504B. The 6504A is the
original chassis design, which is superceded by the 6504B chassis. They are functionally
identical in every way except for the ALARM OVERRIDE switch, which appears on the
front panel of the 6504A. This switch is optional for the 6504B, and is located on the rear
panel when it is furnished.
The Datum 6504 IRIG-B Distribution module accepts a single IRIG-B timing signal and provides ten
buffered IRIG-B timing signal outputs.

PURPOSE OF EQUIPMENT
The Datum 6504 IRIG-B Distribution module uses Datum’s high performance distribution technology
created for its line of cesium standards. The 1U (1.75" high) chassis houses a set of very low noise
and high isolation RF amplifiers. Up to ten Datum 6504 RF Distribution modules may be daisy chained
to provide up to 100 independently buffered outputs of the common input. The level of the input signal
and all ten output signals are monitored, providing a visual indicator of signal presence as well as a
summary fault (form-C relay) for each module.
A complete list of performance characteristics is provided in Chapter Four.
INSTRUMENT IDENTIFICATION
The model number 6504 may be followed by a slash (/) and a three-digit number to indicate an option
that is supplied within the instrument.
PREPARATION FOR SHIPMENT
To turn off the Datum 6504 prior to shipment, remove the AC power from the plug on the rear panel.
Package the instrument in its original packing if possible. If the original packing materials are not
available, pack in a reinforced cardboard carton using foam to take up any space inside the carton.
Do not use foam popcorn or crushed paper for packing.
If the instrument is being returned to Datum, contact the Service Department at 1-800-938-9888 for
product return information.

INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
The Datum 6504 is designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack and take up 1 U of
vertical space (1.75"). The chassis depth is 10 inches.
POWER CONNECTION/FUSES/VOLTAGE SELECTION
The Datum 6504 is powered from an AC source by a detachable power supply cord. The power cord
is the disconnect device. Refer to Chapter Four for power supply requirements. The AC fuses are
located inside the AC connector/filter. The hot and neutral lines are fused separately. To change
fuses, refer to Figure 2-1. Open the cover on the AC connector/filter by applying a screwdriver to the
cover slot. Once the cover is open, each fuse holder may be removed for inspection or replacement.
Replace only with a 0.2A, 250V fuse as specified in Chapter Four.
FIGURE 2-1. AC INPUT FILTER/FUSES/VOLTAGE SELECTOR
The Datum 6504 may be powered from 120 or 240 VAC. To change the AC input between 120 and 240 VAC,
refer to Figure 2-1. Open the cover on the AC input connector by applying a screwdriver to the cover slot.
Once the cover is open, a selector switch may be rolled left or right to line up "120" or "240" with the small
window in the connector cover. Replace the cover on the AC input connector by snapping in place.

CAUTION …
Do not use the voltages labeled "100" or "230", as they are not connected.
DC POWER CONNECTION
The Datum 6504 (DC version) is powered from a DC source. The connections are made at TB1 as
shown in Figure 2-2. The voltage input may be 20 V to 75 V.
FIGURE 2-2. DC POWER CONNECTION
SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
Connect the signal to be distributed to one of the two D connectors labeled INPUT. Set the impedance
switch to 50Ω(down) if only one 6504 module is to be used. If multiple 6504 modules are used to
obtain more than twelve outputs, see Figure 2-4.
Output cables may be connected in any order to the D connectors labeled 1 to 12. Refer to Figure 2-3.
FIGURE 2-3. SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
With the 6504 powered, the green power indicator on the front panel will illuminate. The impedance
switch should be set to 50Ωif there is only one module. The red indicator next to the input signal is off
to show that there is a good input signal.
DAISY-CHAINING MORE THAN ONE MODULE
If more than ten outputs are required, up to ten Datum 6504 modules can be driven by a common input
signal to produce up to 100 outputs. Figure 2-4 illustrates this connection.
