Introduction to iControl Edge 11
The system can include one or more Allégro encoders for streaming remote signals in the form of full-
motion video and audible audio. This allows operators, from their desktop, to listen to audio programs and
to view high-quality video streams featuring multiple video images, closed captioning, audio level meters
and metadata.
As a multi-signal monitoring system, iControl Edge performs simultaneous verification on multiple remote,
multi-format video, audio and ancillary signals from set-top boxes, while cycling through channels. The
system provides signal probing on an extensive set of signal parameters, including:
• video signal loss
• video black
• video freeze
• video luma
• macroblocking (optional)
• audio silence
• audio overload
In the event of a signal fault, the system generates alarms and provides telemetry information, which is
automatically logged for reports.
