Redundancy Control
As described in the Redundancy Options section, the IP Inputs offer option of defining a primary
and a backup address/port combination. This is enabled in by the Backup parameter, which
offers the following options:
•
Disabled: no redundancy.
•
Automatic: a redundant address/port can be defined, and the input will automatically
switch between primary and backup if the stream disappears. If this option is selected, a
new field is displayed, where the Switch Time can be configured; valid values are
between 2 and 45 seconds:
•
Manual: a redundant address/port can be defined, but the input will not automatically
switch – that will have to be done manually by the operator. Redundancy switches are
performed in the Redundancy Tab, described later in the Redundancy section.
Addressing Parameters
The Addressing parameters allow the definition of one or two address/port combinations for
reception. If Backup is set to Disabled, only the primary settings are displayed; otherwise, both
the primary and backup settings are displayed, as shown below.
