4.3. SIGNAL AND SYSTEM MONITORING
The EMR router supports signal monitoring of both inputs and outputs. It is also incorporates
comprehensive system monitoring, including SFP data rates and interior temperatures.
Monitored data is available through VistaLINK® SNMP for facility-wide monitoring systems. System
status may also be monitored remotely by accessing the device’s webEASY web browser interface.
User-configurable GPIO are also provided for connection to an external system.
4.4. CONTROL SYSTEM
The EMR router is fully compatible with all Evertz router control panels and interfaces, including
connectivity to a comprehensive list of third-party control solutions.
The EMR router can be configured with the following control options: Ethernet or Serial. The following
sections provide more details regarding these options.
4.4.1. Controlling the EMR using Ethernet
The EMR supports Evertz control panels that have an Ethernet connection. The EMR supports Quartz
protocol commands over the Ethernet port. Therefore, any control device that supports Quartz protocol
can control the EMR via Ethernet.

NOTE: Ethernet control access to the EMR is achieved via user-defined
ports as explained in Section 6.1 .
Section 6.1.1 describes the method used to set up the EMR for use with Ethernet control panels.
Consult the instruction manual for the respective panels for information regarding their IP address
setup.
4.4.2. Controlling the EMR using Serial
The EMR supports Quartz protocol commands over the serial port (slave end). Any control device that
supports Quartz protocol can control the EMR via the serial port on the rear of the frame.
For information regarding the Quartz protocol, contact Evertz service. See section 2.3.2 for a
description of the pin-outs of the serial port.
