In this system, the interface with a router (routing switcher) uses the S-Bus
protocol. It is therefore necessary to assign inputs and outputs of the switcher
and so on to an S-Bus space.
To carry out this assignment, use the Router/Tally >Router menu. The
assignment is common to the parallel and serial tallies.

To display the Router menu

In the Engineering Setup menu, select VF6 ‘Router/Tally’ and HF1 ‘Router.’
The status area shows the device names to be assigned to the S-Bus space, the
matrix size, source address, destination address, and level.

The following functions are available here.
•

Matrix Size:

Assign the switcher matrix of each switcher processor to S-Bus

space, and select the matrix size and positioning level, source address
settings, and so on.

•

External Box:

To obtain the signal selection status of external devices with

a parallel input, assign a matrix as an external selector in the S-Bus space.
Make the matrix size, assignment level, source address, and other settings.

•

Alias Name Gp:

Set the group number for an S-Bus description name to be

displayed in the source name displays for a cross-point operation.

Assigning Switcher Inputs and Outputs to S-Bus Space

In the group of the Router/Tally >Router menu, select the device
to which the settings apply.

SWR1:

Settings apply to switcher 1.

SWR2:

Settings apply to switcher 2.

Note

When there are two switchers on the same network, the SWR2 (second
switcher) settings are required. If there is only one switcher, the settings
are not required.

In the group, select the matrix size.

Standard (136

138):

Assign the switcher S-Bus space at full size. You

can assign all switcher inputs and outputs to the S-Bus space, but this
causes some waste of S-Bus space.
