Horus User Manual
System Info (Set Up):
In this sub menu you will find details on the Horus internals; current consumption, voltage,
temperature, fan speed, serial number and the firmware version currently installed.
Backlight: Dim active will darken the Horus display’s luminosity. Does in turn also save
some power and hence some internally generated heat…
Cooling Mode: Settings for either Low, Mid or High Cooling. This will affect the speed of fan
in reference to the internally measured temperature. While there is no
universal preferred setting, we recommend that unless noise levels are a
concern, you leave the setting on Mid or High for the coolest operation and
best protective results.
Low: Fan starts above 45°C
Mid: Fan starts above 35°C
High: Fan always on at lowest speed (less noise), speed starts rising above
25 °C
Terminations: 75Ω for WCK: Sets 75Ω termination for the Wordclock Input. Enabling this
will disable the Wordclock output.
75Ω for Video: Sets 75Ω termination for the Video reference Input. Unless the
Video Reference signal provided to the Horus is daisy-chained to other
equipment, you should always terminate your Video signal for most reliable
operation.
Shutdown: Completes a proper shutdown of the Horus unit, including a save of the
current configuration. Do not attempt to shutdown the Horus unit in other
ways (such as flipping the power switch on the back of the device).
Reboot: Power cycles the Horus unit (shutdown>Boot up)
Reboot maintenance Power cycles the Horus unit (shutdown>Boot up) and restarts in Maintenance
mode (required mode for Firmware upgrade)
Save Config: Will save all current settings and parameters of the Horus
