7. ICMP
7.7 ICMP configuration via Communicato r
About ICMP configuration
Following parameters a re available to configure the ICMP:
• Global settings: allows defining nam e of the ICMP, host nam e (network identifier) and IP address which can be used for com -
munication with external content dev ices.
• User settings: definition of all users allowed on the ICM P.
• Server settings: definition of access to servers and storage libraries of content (movies, KDM, etc.).
• Player settings: Audio delay and audio output frequency.
• Audio channel: allows defin ing the mapping of audio channels (content) on each audio output (AES outputs of the ICMP).
• Scheduler setting: Enable/Disable scheduler at startup, delays allowed in scheduler mode and length of schedule history.
• Devices: allows defining communication ports settings, to access external devices controlled by the au tomation.
• Automation Cues: ev ent cues that are triggered from different sources and to which can be assigned actions to be executed
by the autom ation eng ine.
• Verify internal clock of the ICMP.
All installation and maintenance operations on the ICMP are performed via Communicator, the Barco config-
uration software. P lease refer to the Communicator user guide for f urther information.
About Default settings
The restore of factory setting is a feature that allows rem oving all settings performed o n the ICM P and replaces them with the default
values set at the factory. P lease refer to the Communicator user guide for further information.
About the ICMP internal clock
The crystal on the ICMP board that manages the clock shows a certain drift ( all crystals do). W ith the Com m unicator the internal
clock can be adjusted. This maintenance action should be repea ted every 3 m onths. When neglected the system will locks up.
From ICMP software version 1.2.1 onwards it is possible to enable NTP (N etwork Time Protocol). You have to configure (at instal-
lation) an IP address where the ICM P can find a s ync signal. From then on, and as long as the connection is ac tive, the ICMP will
automatically keep its clock correct. Fo r de tailed instructions see u ser guide of the Communicator.
