EXE Bandwidth Limiting Script
Date Revised: Jan-12-16 Revision 1.0
c. Ports set to wrong type
i. Go to Port tab on Guest webpage, ensure Transceiver Type is set to the right
cable type. There are 2 types of cable.
o Optical: Use for fiber cables.
o DAC: Use for copper cables.
ii. If you need to set series of port at one time, follow these steps:
o SSH to guest.
o Type cfgsh
o Type set portConfigTransceiverType <port range> <type>
Example:
set portConfigTransceiverType 10..40 dac
set portConfigTransceiverType 100..240 optical
d. Link is down on the other side (end-device)
i. Ensure the link is UP on other device which is connected to EXE port.
e. Bad SFP
i. Go to Port tab on Guest webpage and check “TX power level” and “RX power
level”.
o Tx[dBm] should read no less than -8.2, and no greater than +0.5
o Rx[dBm] should read no less than -10, and no greater than +0.5
ii. If Tx power is -16, -20 or -40, it is means it is a bad SFP.
3. EXE not swiching in VBI - Verify reference (Genlock) status
a. From guest SSH to FC by using command:
o ssh fc01 (For the top FC)
o ssh fc02 (For the bottom FC)
b. Change directory to /evertz/factory/fc folder and run ./ref script
FC-01# cd /evertz/factory/fc
FC-01# ./ref
o Ref1: 15.7331655129 kHz (15890)
o Ref2: not detected (32768)
i. The ./ref utility reports the detected line rate:
o NTSC is 27000000/1716 = 15.734 kHz
o PAL is 27000000/1728 = 15.625 kHz
o HD formats have higher frequency line rates.
