Task 11: Managing the iControl Edge Configuration Files
Two or more configuration spreadsheets are used to specify the network, audio channel, video
channel and associated information for your iControl Edge network. The first spreadsheet,
Locations.xls, is used to specify the physical locations (i.e. head ends) in your network. Each
physical location corresponds to a separate spreadsheet containing multiple signal IDs that
map to actual monitored channels. The signals, in turn, correspond to multiple signal paths
that map to the physical path of the signal among different devices. In addition, you may need
to create configuration files to define the commands that will be used by the Global Caché
GC-100 Network Adapter to control your set-top boxes. A separate configuration file is needed
for each specific set-top box model.
Creating Configuration files for the Global Caché GC-100 Network Adapter
Each Global Caché GC-100 Network Adapter that shipped with your system can control up
to six different set-top boxes. Depending on the set-top box model, the set of supported
IR signals may vary and follow different standards.
Your iControl Edge system includes a set of predefined configuration files for the following
set-top box models:
