Stream tab
and
remove the tick in the
Enabled
option. The disabled sources / destinations can be hidden when you disable
the
Show Disabled Streams
option.
5.11.6. Give Unique Names for the Sources and Destinations
INFO:
You can find more details about the stream and device naming in the
section.
The default name of the streams are generated from the MAC address of the device and a port number of
the endpoint. The better recognition of the streams might be helped to give unique names.
Naming of the Streams
Click on the source / destination port where the
stream is transmitted / received. Select the
Stream
tab
and find the
Stream name
field and type a unique
name which can describe the stream well, for
example: Intro_4K.
Give names to the Source and Destination sides
either, it will help a lot of the setting the crosspoint states later.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
The stream names are searchable with the

Naming of the Endpoint Devices
Click on the source / destination port where the
device is. It does not matter you select the 01 or 02
port. Select the
Device tab
and find the
Device label
field and type a unique name which can describe
the device well, for example: RX2_MeetingRoom.
Give names to the Source and Destination sides
either, it will help a lot of the re-order the endpoints in the Device map.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
If you are not sure which is your selected device physically, use the
Identify unit
function.
Clicking on the button results the blinking of the front panel status LEDs for 10 seconds.

5.11.7. Add Tags to the Video Streams
More tags can be attached to the streams and devices for the effective searchability.
Click on the source / destination port where the
stream is transmitted / received. Select the
Stream
tab
and find the
Tags
section and type a custom text
which can describe more streams well, for example:
Edited_by_Eric, and add it to the affected streams.
INFO:
The following information are automatically added to the tags: stream name, device label, logical
device ID.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
The tags are searchable with the
5.11.8. Customize the Order of the Endpoints
INFO:
You can find more details about the default port numbering in the
The default order of the endpoints is generated by the MMU based on the discovery order of the units -
independently of the operation mode. This order can be customized in the
Device map
tool.
Device map window
Click on the
Device map
button, the tool opens in a new window. The order of the devices can be changed
easily using drag and drop method by the mouse. See more details about it in the
