Description
Notes
Device Name
Enter a user-friendly name for the unit.
More descriptive names in this field help you organize
and manage the SVSI system efficiently. Names
based on the unit’s location and function are very
useful. Some good examples are
Lobby-Left-VGA
(for
left side of lobby, VGA input)
or
CR201-HDMI
(for
Conference Room 201, HDMI input). Keep in mind the
matrices are organized alphanumerically.
TX Enable
Enable to broadcast the AV signals. Disable to turn off/
stop broadcasting.
Stream
View/edit the current transmit stream number.
To better understand this setting, think of Encoders
more like a channel on a cable box, rather than a
traditional AV Matrix. Each Encoder must have a
unique stream number, just like every channel must
have a unique channel number (e.g., Food Network
and HGTV cannot both be on channel 201).
Audio Input Type
Select
Unbalanced
(single-ended) or
Balanced
analog
audio input.
Video Source
Select which input port is encoding video.
Selecting
HDMI/VGA
declares HDMI as the primary
port and VGA as the secondary port (when there is no
HDMI input). Selecting
VGA only
or
HDMI only
disables the other video input port.
Scaler
Enable to scale outgoing content to a fixed resolution or
to use the
Crop/Pan/Zoom
functions.
