2.5 Encoder Control
This tab allows you to control all Videon encoders currently on your network. If the device that is
currently serving the user interface has an “
Encoder
” role enabled, it will be the first row in the
table. (You can tell which device is serving the interface by looking at the top right corner of the
interface window.) Each row shows a summary of an individual encoder’s status and provides a
Configure
button for the
Encoder Settings
and a
Configure
button for the
Output Settings.
Information about the encoder:
