Board Communication

Note

Direct Board Communication via the Board Comm interface is NOT an oper-
ation that is typically performed by the end user. This functionality should
ONLY be attempted under the direction of Grass Valley’s Technical Support or
Engineering personnel.

When the

Board Comm

button is selected, the following section will be shown

next to the button:

Figure 159. Deployment Center Board Communication

The command drop-down list contains available commands that can be
sent to the board according to the current board state. Select a command
and click the

Send

button to send the command. If a command requires

parameters, parameter text boxes will be displayed to allow the user to
enter the information.

To reboot a board, for example, do the following:

1.

Select the preferred board(s) in the board list.

2.

Select REBOOT from the Board Communication drop-down list.

3.

Click

Send

to send the reboot command to the selected boards.

The control center always tries to push the board to the “Started” state. If
the user wants to manually stop the system, press the

Stop/Unload

button.
