Sierra Router Tab
This allows the TCP settings of a connection to a Sierra Video Systems Router to be
configured. Once the connection to the router has been established, the first row of
UMDs in each video window will acquire the applicable source names of the router
according to the source that is feeding the destinations connected to the multiviewer. As
cross-points are changed in the router, the UMDs will be updated.
The Physical connections from Router to Multiviewer table allows setting up of the
wiring between the router's physical outputs and the multiviewer's physical inputs. (This
table also applies to the serial port settings if the router is being communicated with
through the serial port).
Enabled – Allows the multiviewer to attempt to connect to a Sierra router over Ethernet.
(If this is ticked AND the serial port protocol is set to Sierra Router then the Ethernet port
wins; the serial port will NOT attempt to connect to a router).
IP Address – The IP address of the Sierra router.
Port – TCP port to connect to the Sierra router with. Normally a Sierra router uses port
10001, however this can vary.
Physical connections from Router to Multiviewer – table to set up to reflect the wiring
between the router and the multiviewer. The columns are:
MV Input – Lists all the inputs on the multiviewer. Fields in this column cannot be edited.
Router Output – In these fields, enter the physical output number of the router that is
connected to the multiviewer's input.
Router Level – In these fields, enter the level in the router that the output comes from.
Connected – Untick this field if the associated input does not come from the router.
