Controls and Communications
This rear panel part, located on the right of the codec connectors, presents connectors
that allow the EVS server to communicate with other devices. The connectors are
described from top left to bottom right:
The Loop connector allows the loop of PGM1 on REC1 to be able to use the internal loop
feature.
The SAS-HDX connector allows the connection to the external disk array SAS-HDX if it
is installed.
The Multiviewer connectors allow a monitor to be connected directly to the server, and to
display PGM and REC channels as configured in the Multicam Configuration window, in
the Monitoring tab, Multiviewer page. See the Multicam Configuration manual for a
description of the configuration parameters.
The XNet2 connectors allow the interconnection of EVS servers, and/or XStore in an
XNet2 network. The IN connector of a server is connected to the OUT connector of
another server, and so on to form a closed loop network.
The GPI connector allows GPI (General Purpose Interface) devices to send or receive
electric pulses that will trigger commands on the server or to be connected with third-party
devices.
The Audio Monitoring Output connector is a DA-15 connector that allows audio output
connections for monitoring purposes.
