7.5 Enabling/Disabling Video/Audio Redundancy

7.5.1 Video Redundancy

The video redundant crosspoint algorithm is enabled or disabled by using the Generic

Configuration Editor. See the Workbench manual for information on using the Generic

Configuration editor.

Nucleus2 (2463) Controller Navigate to:

Devices | Devices[1]: LocalRouterDevice | LocalRouterControl |

RouterSpecificControl: Sirius800Control | RedundantXpntControl |

Enable = True

Nucleus (2450) Controller Navigate to:

Control2450| CommonControl|RouterSpecificControl: Sirius800Control |

RedundantXpntControl | Enable = True

Select the required action from the drop down menu:

• Redundant crosspoint algorithm enabled = True

• Redundant crosspoint algorithm disabled = False

Note:

• Sirius 850 single frame: Enabling video redundancy will enable redundancy for

the main and expansion crosspoint modules in the router (if fitted).

• Sirius 850 dual frame systems: Enabling video redundancy in frame one will

enable redundancy for the main crosspoint modules mounted in frame one and the

expansion crosspoint modules mounted in frame two. The reverse is true for frame

two. In a dual frame system if redundancy is enabled in one frame it must also be

enabled in the other frame.

Important:

• If video redundancy is enabled or disabled the configuration must be pushed by

Workbench to the controller for the new setting to take effect.

• If the action on fail setting (see section 7.6) for video or audio needs to be changed

make these changes at the same time and only one push is then required.

• In a dual controller system use the Push Config to Controller(s) button in

Workbench to make sure both controllers are set the same.
