Description
Notes
Device Name
Enter a user-friendly name for the unit.
More descriptive names in this field help you organize
and manage the N-Series 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. Avoid using
special characters.
TX Enable
Enable to generate and transmit multicast streams.
Compressed Stream
View/edit the current transmit compressed stream
number. Enable the port you wish to transmit the stream
on (
P0
or
P1
).
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).
Uncompressed Stream
View/edit the current transmit uncompressed stream
number. Enable the
P1
checkbox if you want the unit to
output an uncompressed stream.
P1
can stream both compressed and uncompressed,
and it can do so simultaneously. If you prefer to use
compressed video and disable uncompressed (so as
not to overwhelm the network) disable this
P1
checkbox.
