UTILIZATION GRAPH
The U liza on Graph (seen in Figure 21 ) indicates the incoming and outgoing u liza on of the network. The bars
indicate the average data rate used by the system during each one-second window. It is possible that the size of
these bars will vary because CrossLock (in some modes) has control over data rate through a technique called
“thro ling”. Based on network feedback sta s cs, CrossLock will reduce or increase the u liza on dynamically. If
more than one network device is in use, the u liza on graph will be color-coded, indica ng the rela ve u liza on
of each network device. A color-code key for network devices appears below the graph. Overlayed on the network
u liza on graph is a gray line. This is the encoder target rate, which re
fl ects the bitrate chosen in the pro fi le used in
the connec on. This is treated as a maximum value, so u liza on should mostly remain below this line.
CROSSLOCK SETTINGS
Clicking the “CrossLock Se ngs” header during an ac ve connec on will display the CrossLock delay sliders . There
are independent sliders available for transmit and receive opera on, as shown in Figure 22 .
