How Many Tie Lines?
How many Masterpiece inputs do you need to convert to Tie Lines? This is entirely dependent
on a few external factors, such as:
• How many inputs available on the Masterpiece (max number shown below):
• HD = 40 Tie Lines
• UHD = 12 Tie Lines
• How many router destinations are available.
• How many router sources need to be selected on Masterpiece at any one time.
For example:
If the user wants to select different external router sources on the A and B bus of ME2 this
would require 2 Tie Lines.
For HD this would require 2 router destinations and 2 Masterpiece inputs.
For UHD this would require 8 router destinations and 8 Masterpiece inputs.
If the user requires external router sources on the A and B bus plus Key 1 and Key 2, this would
require 4 Tie Lines.
In summary: Each different external router source selected simultaneously requires a Tie Line.
Masterpiece
Each Tie Line requires one router destination and Masterpiece input in HD, or 4 router
destinations and 4 Masterpiece inputs in UHD.
Setup
Protocol Setup
To setup the protocol, the user will have to go to the Eng Config - Protocols menu. Use the
“Protocol Type” parameter to select “Router”, then, use the “Available Protocol” parameter to
select the required protocol. For this example, “SW-P-08 Router” is selected. Touch the {Load}
button to add the protocol to the “Loaded Protocols” table.
Note: If at all possible, it is recommended that the user creates more Tie
Lines than are actually required. This gives some redundancy and reduces
the risk of the system running out of available Tie Lines
