CONFIGURING SECTION PROCESSORS
When an Argo Surface section
processor has been initially
programmed with its software and
firmware, it is given default primary
and secondary IP addresses.
In order to put sections together to
build a surface the IP addresses and
the Config switches on the rear of
each console section is changed to
unique values for each processor.
Fig 1 above right shows the section
processor Config switches and Primary/
Secondary surface links which can be
accessed from the rear of the console.
Although the section processors and
Config switches will have been set by the
production team at the factory, it is useful
to know how these are configured.
A computer is connected via the Ethernet
port into each section processor in turn
and the IP primary / secondary addresses
changed from their factory defaults of
172.16.255.197/24
&
172.16.255.198/24
for the first section processor, to
192.168.24.101/24
&
192.168.25.101/24
and for the second section processor to
192.168.24.102/24
&
192.168.25.102/24
etc for the number of section processors.
Fig 2 middle right shows the Configure
application being used to configure the
virtual adapter for the Argo Surface on the
primary Impulse core, which has been set
to be in the same subnet as the Section
processors in the Surface.
In addition to configuring the section
processors IP addresses, the Config
switches on each section processor are set
to different values, which are used by
the surface layout arrangement in the
Configure application.
In this example the first section processor
is set to 0x1, i.e. (0000000001) and a
fader panel added for faders 1-12, the
second section processor is set to 0x2 i.e.
(0000000010) and a fader panel added for
faders 13-24, etc for the required number of
section processors to be populated.

Fig 3 below right shows the console
surface layout page in the Configuration
Application which uses the Section
Processor configuration switches to
identify each section column and add
the various Fader/Wild/Monitor/Short
Fader/Touch TFT and Meter TFT panels
associated with it. Note: in Argo the individual panels
themselves do not have unique IP
addresses, the panels are accessed
via their section processors using its IP
Address to process control data and
generate TFT and LED displays.
