Email address fields

The eight Email address fields identify the e-mail addresses of the personnel to

whom the CrossPoint or MAV switcher e-mails notification of its failure and repair

status. Standard e-mail address conventions (nnnnn@xxx.com) apply.
The check boxes and drop boxes associated with each address field permit the

operator to specify specific criteria under which the switcher will e-mail recipients.

In the associated Missing Inputs drop boxes, select the inputs to monitor for

presence or absence of a signal. Check the Fans and Power boxes to monitor the

cooling and power supplies. In the associated E-Mail Options drop box, select

whether the recipient is to be e-mailed of failures, fixes, both, not notified, or to

be removed from the e-mail list. The Suspend option is useful for temporarily

removing personnel from the e-mail list when they are unavailable, such as on

travel or vacation. Deleting an e-mail addressee and clicking the Submit button

removes the recipient from e-mail notification completely.

Firmware Upgrade page

The Firmware Upgrade page provides a way to replace the firmware that is coded

on the switcher’s control board without taking the switcher out of service, opening

the switcher enclosure, and replacing the firmware chip. Access the Firmware

Upgrade page (figure 6-8) by clicking the Firmware Upgrade link on the System

Settings page.
