Example of a Serial

Recall

The advantage of using GPI IN Response with presets is that you can trigger a series or
even a looping series of preset recalls. For example, suppose GPI IN 1 Response in Preset 1
is set to Preset 2, and GPI IN Response in Preset 2 is set to Preset 1. Triggering the GPI will
toggle between the two presets.

Example of an

Unintended Recall

Suppose you trigger GPI IN 1 while the current GPI IN 1 Response parameter is set to
Preset 1. This recalls Preset 1 as expected. However, suppose Preset 1 contains a stored
GPI IN 1 Response setting of No Action. If you trigger GPI IN 1 later, expecting to recall
Preset 1 again, the FS2 instead performs No Action. To prevent unexpected changes in
the GPI IN Response parameters, set these parameters as desired before storing presets; in
the example, set GPI IN 1 to Preset 1 before you store Preset 1.

CONFIG Menu Group

The CONFIG Menu Group includes parameters for setting up the FS2’s network, system
name, SNMP, alarm, and screen saver configurations.

1 System Name

This parameter defines a unique name for the FS2. This same name is used both when
displaying systems via the web interface and when displaying the FS2’s screen saver.

Name Entry Procedure

Set the name as follows:

1. Push ADJUST momentarily to enter character editing mode.

2. Turn SELECT to advance the blinking cursor to each character.

3. Turn ADJUST to scroll through the choices for each character. These characters are

allowed: A through Z (uppercase), a through z (lowercase), numerals, hyphen (-),
period (.), and space (blank). Leave the desired character selected and advance to the
next one.

4. Push ADJUST to save and activate the name after all characters are defined.

• To abandon changes before saving, push SELECT.

• To return to the default name at any time, hold down ADJUST.

NOTE:

To eliminate trailing characters to shorten an existing system name, overwrite them with a
hyphen (-) or space.

2.1 IP Config

This parameter determines the type of TCP/IP network configuration used by the FS2.
Consult your network administrator about how to set this value.

Variable

Set the system name, up to 20 characters. Default: aja-fs2

DHCP

(default)

Static Addr

Select automatic IP address assignment from the LAN DHCP server. If

the FS2 cannot find a DHCP server, it fails over to the static IP address.

Assign a static IP address manually (using parameters 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4).
The factory default static IP address: 192.168.0.2
