Getting Started
It should be noted, when this feature is used for the insertion of SI/PSI tables, it is
expected that the internal SI/PSI generation is turned off (Select the output
Transport Stream, and in the Properties window, switch off all tables).
3.8.7 How to Configure the Front Panel Video Confidence Monitor
The confidence monitor on the front panel can be configured to monitor the video
input on any VCM fitted to the chassis, from either the GUI or the front panel.
From the GUI go to Device Configuration > Advanced Setup > Base Unit > Front
Panel Parameters > Video Monitor Setup > Video Monitor Video Select. The
Properties panel will provide a drop down box listing all available sources with the
relevant slot number (in many cases this will be only a single VCM). Select the
required source.
There is a preview time for the confidence monitor that sets the time the monitor
display is active from the time the ON button is pressed. This is to help maximize the
life of the monitor. If a longer preview time is required, from the GUI go to Device
Configuration > Advanced Setup > Base Unit > Front Panel Parameters and set
the Video Monitor Preview Time to the required value (in seconds).
From the front panel navigate to Unit Config > Display Setup > Video Monitor
Input and select the required source.
3.8.8 How to Configure VLAN Tagging
VLAN tagging can be used to segregate IP packets from data interfaces.
VLAN Creation
A VLAN is created by specifying the VLAN ID, IP address and the Netmask. All
Transport Streams which are tagged to this VLAN use the VLAN IP address as its
source IP address. Hence the VLAN and VLAN ID must be created before it can be
used to tag a Transport Stream.
To create VLANs, on the Advanced Setup tab of the Device Configuration page
navigate to the Device > Vlan Tags folder, select the output you want to assign the
VLAN tag to, and click Add in the Properties pane and configure the IP settings as
required. Alternatively, on the front panel navigate to Advanced/System/Vlan Tags
and set up the VLANs as required.
Alternatively VLANs can be created via the Service Configuration page by clicking
on the Manage button next to the Vlan Tag parameter.
The available options are listed in the following table.
