Chapter 4 – Advanced ST 2110 Configuration
This Chapter offers technical information regarding IT configuration for ST
2110 workflows, useful to IT professionals responsible for network system
administration.
Configuration Summary
With s2110 firmware, each Io IP must be configured before operation. This
configuration process can be accomplished using AJA's Control Panel software,
and includes the following steps:
• Create a unique base IP address for each SFP module.
• Create JSON or SDP configuration files that determine the IP attributes of each
transmit and receive stream.
• Apply the correct configuration file for each stream to the each Io IP.
Io IP running s2110 firmware supports three configuration methods to specify the
required transmit and receive stream IP information:
• JSON Script - Generate and apply a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file
containing all the required information for each Io IP. The Control Panel
Follow Input
parameter of the capture Io IP must be turned Off, and the user
manually sets the Control Panel frame buffer format to match the input. For
advanced users only after initial setup.
• SDP URL - Enter the URL of a network location that has a desired Session
Description Protocol (SDP) file for a stream to be received. This may be the
URL of the transmitting Io IP device itself. The Control Panel
Follow Input
parameter must be turned On before applying the configuration, and
the operator uses
Refresh
to update the Io IP's frame buffer format if the
incoming signal format changes.
• SDP File - Export an SDP file from a transmit Io IP and then import it into a
receive Io IP. This file reflects the transmit device's output configuration at the
time of creation, and a new SDP file must be generated and imported if the
incoming signal format changes. The Control Panel
Follow Input
parameter
must be turned On before applying each configuration.
Initial Io IP ST 2110 Installation and Network Configuration
1. Install the Io IP with SFP module(s) into your computer.
2. Install AJA's Desktop Software package on the same computer.
3. Connect the Io IP's SFP module(s) to your 10 GigE media network.
4. Connect the Io IP's HDMI output to a compatible HDMI monitor.
5. Launch AJA's Control Panel application and select
IP Config
