them from responding correctly. Leitch can replace the firmware chip and it may be best to
upgrade to the latest firmware version in any case.
To support the Leitch protocol on TCP/IP, a login/password must be set. By default, the driver
uses
login=leitch and password=leitchadmin . To change the login/password values, add
the following two lines:
DEF_OPTIONS=" ${DEF_OPTIONS} -
Dcom.miranda.icontrol.routers.leitch.login=leitch"
DEF_OPTIONS=" ${DEF_OPTIONS} -
Dcom.miranda.icontrol.routers.leitch.password=leitchadmin"
Troubleshooting
Leitch routers are using ASCII protocol to communicate with the router. In case of successful
connection hitting will bring you to the command prompt (the > character). Press Q
to display the menu. To enable echo on the terminal type T O . To
enable reporting type @?. Once you enabled reporting the router will send changes in
its status back to the serial port.
How to get Firmware Version Number?
From the Leitch shell, type SHOW RPARM followed by <ENTER>.
Utah Scientific RCP-3 (SC-4 Controller Ethernet Only)
The RCP-3 protocol is supported by the following controller: UTAH-200, SC-3 and SC-4.
However, the driver only works with SC-4 controllers using an Ethernet connection. The SC-4
does not support RCP-3 serial protocol at this time.
When configuring the physical setting of the SC-4 in the Router Manager Configurator, you
must use the IP address of the System Controller with Port 5001.
The driver supports automatic labels and this means it will fetch them from the SC-4 controller
when it starts. To get them displayed in iControl and iRouter applications, you must set the
Auto update labels feature to ON in the configuration of the associated logical router in the
Router Manager Configurator.
IMPORTANT: The echo mode MUST be ON for the driver to work properly. If the echo mode is
off, you may not be able to switch crosspoints.
Note: Do not type Z at the command prompt unless you really want to
reset the router. If you do you will have to upload the configuration using the Leitch
RouterMapper software.
