9220-UM V1.1

The Basic view includes the following:

Enabled: The configured value of this parameter.

Locked: This column will have Yes for inputs that are receiving a valid transport stream,
and No for inputs that are not.

TS Bit Rate (b/s): This column provides the measured bit rate of the input transport
stream. This does not include UDP and IP overhead.

UDP Port: The active reception UDP port (i.e., the UDP port currently being used by the
input).

Reception Address: The active reception address (i.e., the address being currently used
by the input). If you selected Unicast, this field will contain the IP address of the
corresponding Ethernet interface. If you selected Multicast, this field will contain the
configured multicast address. If you selected Broadcast, this field will contain the word
“Broadcast”.

Stream Name: The configured stream name.

Edit Port: If you click on this button, you can modify all the parameters for this input.
The configuration area will re-open with the current input settings.

Delete Port: If you click on this button, the port is deleted and removed from the table.

When the Advanced view is selected, additional fields appear in the table, as depicted below:

The Advanced view includes all items in the Basic view plus the following:

Backup Mode: The configured value of this parameter.

IP Packet Rate (pkts/s): The measured IP input packet rate, in packets/second. This
field is useful for debugging: if you have a non-zero IP Packet Rate, but a zero TS Bit
Rate, this indicates that the packets being received by the 9220 do not contain a valid
transport stream. This allows differentiation between a transport network problem (no
packets being received) and a data format problem (packets contain invalid data).

Latency (ms): The configured value of this parameter.

Max Jitter (ms): The maximum jitter measured by the 9220 for this input stream. This
is reported as zero if there is no reception.

Source Address: The active source address (i.e., the address currently being used by the
input). This will have the word “Any” if the Source was configured as Any Source, or
the configured IP address.
