Important! Performing a factory reset will erase all I/O routing as well as any other custom settings
you may have saved. This information cannot be reclaimed once you reset the UPMAX ISC,
even by contacting customer support or expressing genuine remorse for your decision. We
strongly recommend backing up your configuration to a computer before performing a factory reset
to avoid re-setter’s remorse. You have been warned!
Hardware Relay Bypass
UPMAX ISC includes a hard relay bypass that removes all internal circuits and processes from the signal
path and connects each SDI and AES-3 input directly to its corresponding output.
To toggle the relay bypass on and off, simultaneously press and hold the Left, Down, and Right keys for
three seconds until a red countdown timer appears in the bottom left corner of the display. Do not confuse
this sequence with the Factory Reset procedure described above.
Remote User Interface
Connecting to UPMAX ISC using the web-based user interface.
Connecting to UPMAX ISC
As mentioned previously, certain settings and configurations can be accessed and performed using the front
panel buttons and screen but the UPMAX ISC is designed to be connected to a network and operated
through its web-based interface.
IMPORTANT: As explained in detail in the
section, UPMAX ISC must be connected to 1000BASE-T (Gigabit) switch ports, and the
Control and AES67 ports should not be connected to a common network with the same
netmask/subnet.
Installation and Initial Setup Using the Front Panel
No special client software is required, and the HTML-5-based GUI is device, operating system, and browser
agnostic. We recommend using Google Chrome or Apple Safari. The computer or tablet should be on the
same network and subnet as the UPMAX ISC.
Once the UPMAX ISC and your computer are connected to your network, enter the IP address of the
UPMAX ISC to which you want to connect in the URL field of your browser. Once connected, the Home
Screen will appear. As you navigate through the user interface, clicking on the UPMAX ISC logo (4-1A) in
the top left corner will always return you to this screen.
Multiple users can connect to the same UPMAX ISC hardware simultaneously. Anyone connected to the
unit will be able to see the information on this screen including the unit’s name (4-1B) and physical
location (4-1C).
Additionally, all users can access the Meters screen (4-1D) which shows input and output level meters
along with pertinent information about the input or output bitstream (depending on the workflow selected).
