1.3.4 CHANNELS OVERVIEW
Channels input/output and name are automatically defined according to the
parameters entered in the fields: Base configuration, Video Players, Video
Recorders and SLSM Rec.
The player channels are allocated first (starting with OUT1), then the record
channels are allocated (starting with IN1)
Note:
To modify the parameters included in the “Channels’ area”, press F3 to
enter the Advanced Configuration mode
TYPE
Possible values: [Rec, Play, SLSM Rec, SLSM Rec. 1, SLSM Rec. 2, SLSM Rec. 3]
This parameter is automatically set according to the settings of the previous ones.
It defines the type of channel and depends on the values of Video Players, Video
Recorders and SLSM Rec.
CTRL
Possible values: [Sony, DD35, VDCP, Odetics, Edit Rec, AVSP, IPDP]
This parameter defines which system or protocol controls the current channel.
This parameter is automatically set and not editable when the Base Configuration
is set to LSM or Video Delay.
PORT
Range: [1 … 6]
This parameter defines the RS422 port number that controls each channel. These
fields are not available with LSM and Video Delay configurations.
Note:
A single Sony BVW serial connection can control multiple PGM channels
which are ganged on an XT server. It is therefore possible to assign the
same RS422 port number (#n), which corresponds to a Sony BVW
protocol, to several PGM channels on the same XT server.
A single Odetics or VDCP serial connection can control two PGM paired
channels, in a Fill and Key configuration, on an XT server. It is therefore
possible to assign the same RS422 port number (#n), which corresponds
to a VDCP or Odetics protocol, to the Fill and Key player channels of one
XT server. The first channel will be assigned as the Fill channel and the
second will automatically be the Key channel.
