For more details on converting module modes, please see the Upgrade Guide.
In this mode, the Switch+IP module will required be configured identically to the primary unit. Port A on the
module should be connected to the output of the Primary and this will monitor the streams.
Port B on the module will by default be muted on the output. When a loss of bitrate is detected on a multicast
from the Primary unit, the output multicast from the Backup unit will be un-muted. This multicast will continue
to be output until there is a return of bitrate from the Primary multicast.
12.6.3 SWITCHING BEHAVIOR
By default in an error state where the Backup unit is streaming, when the output streams from the Primary return
these will be detected by the Backup and its outputs will return to a muted sate.
If it is required that the Primary continue to be muted when there are no errors present, then it is possible to
enable the ‘Disable Ports On Error’ option found under the Redundancy->Output menu for this module in the
GUI:
