Important Notes:
·
When connecting over IP to G3 codecs only in-band data is available via the Music and
MusicPLUS algorithms.
·
Use firmware higher than 2.8.xx in the Bridge-IT, Genie and Merlin families of codecs to
enable auxiliary data over multicast connections.
· It is important to enable serial port flow control as it regulates the flow of data through the
serial port. If disabled, data will flow unregulated and some may be lost.
· Ensure you configure the serial port baud rate to match the setting of the external device
to which you are connecting. Ideally the settings on both codecs should match, or you
could have data overflow issues.
· Only the dialing codec needs to be configured to send RS232 data. Session data sent
from the dialing codec will configure all other compatible codecs (non-G3) when you
connect.
· RS232 data can be sent from the dialing codec to all endpoints of a multi-unicast or
multicast connection if your codec is capable of these connections. Note: Bidirectional
RS232 data is only available on the first connection dialed when multi-unicasting.
