Redundancy Flip Controls
The new fields are:
Redundancy Status:
this field indicates which address (primary or backup) is currently

if the
Flip
button is clicked, the port will flip the redundancy (i.e.,

When the Advanced view is selected, additional fields appear in the table, as depicted below:
The Advanced view includes all items in the Basic view plus the following:
Backup Mode:
The configured value of this parameter.
IP Packet Rate (pkts/s):
The measured IP input packet rate, in packets/second. This
field is useful for debugging: if you have a non-zero IP Packet Rate, but a zero TS Bit
Rate, this indicates that the packets being received by the MVN-XC440 do not contain a
valid transport stream. This allows differentiation between a transport network problem
(no packets being received) and a data format problem (packets contain invalid data).
Source Address:
The active source address (i.e., the address currently being used by the
input). This will have the word “Any” if the Source was configured as
Any Source
, or
the configured IP address.
IP Inputs: Program Info Tab
For IP Inputs with a valid transport stream containing at least one program, the
Program Info
tab shows the contents of the transport stream, as illustrated below:
