5.2.2 Initial Commissioning of the Matrix
1. Connect the monitor, keyboard, and mouse to a functionally tested CON Unit.
2. Connect the CON Unit to an I/O port of the matrix by using interconnect cables (Cat X or fiber).
3. Connect the CON Unit to the power supply unit(s)/power socket(s).
4. Connect the matrix to the power sockets.
5. Establish the power supply voltage to the matrix and the CON Unit.
6. Wait until the boot process of the matrix is finished and the status LED flashes green.
7. Open the OSD via keyboard command 2x Left Shift, o.
The Caps Lock and Scroll Lock LEDs on the keyboard are flashing, and the OSD is opened with the
Switch
menu as a start page.
8. Press Esc to enter the main menu.
The OSD can be operated via keyboard and mouse.
9. Select
Configuration
in the main menu.
10. Login with administrator rights (see chapter 6.1, page 70).
11. Configure initially as requested (see from chapter 6.2, from page 71).
12. Save the settings by selecting
Configuration > Save
(see chapter 6.10.1, page 142).
13. Restart the matrix by selecting
Configuration > Restart Matrix
(see chapter 9.2.1, page 308).
Optional: Establish a network connection between the matrix and the management software to set an
extended configuration (from chapter 5.4, page 64).
The default IP address is 192.168.100.99 and DHCP is deactivated.
After initial configuration of the matrix and after changing the configuration of the system or the Matrix
Grid, we recommend to de-register the primary controller board and to boot the secondary controller
board until the boot process is finished.
When installing several matrices at the same time, it is strongly recommended to install them in sequence
and to assign unique IP addresses to avoid IP address conflicts.
5.3 Connecting the Matrix to the Sinks and the Sources
The CON Units/CPU Units can be hot plugged at the matrix.
NOTICE
Faults in redundant matrix systems or dysfunctional updates
The primary interconnect port is used for updates. With redundant extender modules, if only the
secondary interconnect port is connected to the matrix, no update can be performed.
To get a correct mapping of redundant links in fully redundant matrix systems and to perform effective
and complete updates, we recommend:
Connect all extender modules with interconnect port 1 to one matrix and with interconnect port 2 to the
other matrix.
Activate the
Primary Preferred
function (see chapter 6.3.1, page 72).
Please do not connect all extender modules at once to the matrix. It is recommended to connect them one
by one and then rename them directly.
Preconditions
•
The matrix is initially commissioned.
•
A Point-to-Point connection of each CON Unit and CPU Unit has been established.
