mixer this button can be selected and
now the new command value(s) is(are)
inserted to the On-Air grid.
This is useful if the volume of a

instead of having to manually adjust the
audio mixer each time the command is
triggered.
If access to the full Audio Follow menu
is needed, simply right-click on the
button on the VU Meter to open the

Streamer Control
As an option the Broadcast Pix switcher can also provide control of the full line of
ViewCast Streamers, like the Niagara 2120 and 7500, over a TCP/IP connection.
Depending on which ViewCast Streamer is used, various compression or bit rates
and codecs for streaming can be used. All these settings can then be saved into
groups, which are presets. Each ViewCast Streamer can save up to 12 groups,
and all 12 of these groups can then be selected from Broadcast Pix to start and
stop the stream and also monitor its status. All the configuration of the groups is
done on the ViewCast through its web interface. For more information on how to
configure groups please refer to the ViewCast users manual.
Installing Streamer Control
To use the Streamer Control, the System Option needs to be installed. On new
systems this is preinstalled, to enable this option after the initial purchase, see
Installing System Options for more information.
The control for all 12 groups is over a single Cat5 – TCP/IP connection. The
control can either be connected to the Broadcast Pix Control network card (with
the Server and panel) using a network hub or on the secondary network card with
your ‘house’ network, using a crossover cable (if connecting only the ViewCast) or
a network hub (if connecting to more network devices).
If connecting to the Broadcast Pix Control (NIC 2 on the Server as shown below),
the 192.168.53.XXX subnet must be used. If using the other NIC card, it may be
configured with your own network settings.
