6.3.2 Distributing Alarm Settings
Alarm settings can be distributed automatically from one XP-DSM to another. They
can also be distributed to all the XP-DSMs on a network by using a DSM Setup File.
The procedure is a follows:
STEP 1: Make the desired SCTE-HMS alarm settings on a master XP-DSM,
according to the methods described in the sections above.
STEP 2: Createan.s19imageleofthemasterXP-DSM’salarmsettings.
To create an .s19 image le of the master XP-DSM’s alarm settings, you must rst
obtain its SCTE-HMS conguration. This can be done in two ways.
Method A: If the Web server is enabled (default), enter the master XP-DSM’s IP
address followed by “/?X=con” (e.g. http://192.168.1.4/?X=con) into a
Web browser.
Method B: Connect a local computer to the master XP-DSM using the local port
adapter (Alpha P/N 745-826-21). Enter the command >CONFIG at the
prompt.
In either case, the SCTE-HMS conguration should be displayed as follows:
Copy the data between the dashed lines and paste it into a plain text le (Microsoft
notepad or equivalent. Do not use Microsoft Word.). Execute the following steps to
convert this text to an .s19 image:
a. Replace “cong ” with “S1” throughout the le. Remove any spaces between
‘S1’ and the remainder of the row.
b. Add the line “S004000043B8” at the beginning of the le.
c. Add the line “S804000000FB” at the end of the le.
d. Ensure there is one extra line entered at the end of the last line in the le. For
example, go to the end of the last row of data and press the <Enter> key once.
