Bit Rate:
This field is only shown if the
ASI Rate
control is set to
Manual
. Enter the
desired bit rate in bits/second.
•
Source:
This field indicates the source for the ASI Output content. For the current
firmware version, the only option is the ASI Input content. Future versions of the
firmware will offer additional options.
Once the desired configuration is entered, click on the

ASI Output Port: Statistics Tab
The Statistics Tab for the ASI Output Port provides a quick visual summary status. An example
is depicted below.
The ASI Port indicator can have the following values:
•
TX OK
: The port is operating normally in transmit mode (ASI Output).
•
TX Overflow:
The port is in manual bit rate setting, and the connected bit rate is
excessive. The Dashboard Card State will be red and the Status LED in the front of the
board will also be red. To correct this problem, either externally reduce the input bit rate,
or increase the ASI output bit rate, or configure the port in Automatic mode.
If this
alarm is active, data is being dropped
.
•
TX Unlocked:
The port is in transmit mode, automatic bit rate, and there is no data
rate coming to it. Any downstream ASI receivers will lose lock.
