Crosspoint lines
Crosspoint lines assign default and scheduled crosspoints between resources. A
basic explanation of these events is included below.
The following is the column-by-column layout of crosspoint lines:
• Column 1-2: source index number.
• Column 3: separator (-).
• Column 4-5: destination index number.
• Column 6: separator (,).
• Column 7: crosspoint indicator (“C” or “c”).
• Column 8: ‘D’ or ‘S’ for default or schedule crosspoints.
Scheduled crosspoint connections take precedence during playback, default
crosspoints take effect at all other times (or in the absence of scheduled
crosspoints). Typically, scheduled and default crosspoints are used in sets of
three to define playback and E-to-E modes, as follows:
- Default connection of an input to an output (E-E).
- Default connection of an input to a codec (for recording).
- Scheduled connection of the codec to the output (to override E-E during
PB).
A configuration file should only have crosspoint lines for video and timecode.
The sample configuration files that follow provide examples of resource and
crosspoint lines.
