being selected or seen by the other VistaMax com-
munity devices).
The first destination signal that is shown
(
dst=241,KSU A ALG, 242
) identifies the sig-
nal as the A analog output of the KSU (signal 241);
that its displayed name is KSU A ALG; and that
the signal is stereo linked to the next signal (by
the
,242
at the end of the entry).
The “right channel” of the KSU A analog output
(
dst=242,{NA1R
) is hidden because of the { (open
bracket) in front of the signal name. On stereo sig-
nals the right channel is always hidden by default.
Dx_PUBLISH.CFG
As part of a VistaMax system, each console and
frame has a unique device number assigned in its
nqx.ini
file. In order for a device to know what
sources are available from other devices, a Device
Publish file is created by VMCC in the form of
Dx_publish.cfg
where
x
is the console’s de-
vice number. The example below shows the same
section as the local_publish file shown previously:
;AudioSrc Card#: 46
src=161,11.MM1
src=162,11.MM1R
src=163,11.MM2
src=164,11.MM2R
src=165,{11.MM3,166
src=166,{11.MM3R
src=167,{11.MM4,168
src=168,{11.MM4R
;
;AudioDst Card#: 46
dst=241,11.NA1,242
dst=242,{11.NA1R
dst=243,11.NA2,244
dst=244,{11.NA2R
dst=245,11.NA3,246
dst=246,{11.NA3R
dst=247,11.NA4,248
dst=248,{11.NA4R
VMCC distributes a device publish file to every
other device in the community. The file is like the
local_publish.cfg
file except that the names
consist of: the Call Group entry (11 in the example
above), the community Name Radix entry (a pe-
riod in the example above) and the four-character
Community Name (as defined in the VMCC Sig-
nal Summary).
RMXd Server Configuration
Several software programs must be installed on
the setup computer in order to configure the RMX-
digital server files. These programs are supplied
on the 99-5000 CD-ROM. They can also be down-
loaded from the Harris FTP site (see page 5-1 in
Maintenance for FTP access details).
COMMUNITY MONITOR
Community Monitor (CM) runs as a process on
the setup computer (it initially appears as only a
tray icon:
. Right-click on the icon and select
Show Monitor Display).
The Community Monitor listens to communi-
cations on the VistaMax LAN from all VistaMax
community members. It obtains such parameters
as IP address, device name and MAC address for
each community member. It also writes a text file
on the setup computer,
C o m m u n i t y
Monitor.txt
, that identifies each community
member. This file is updated with each commu-
nity member change. Thus, CM should always be
run prior to inspecting a community in VMCC.
VISTAMAX CONTROL CENTER
The VistaMax Control Center (VMCC) is the user
interface for editing and maintaining the settings
of the various RMX
d server setup files (
nqx.ini
,
init.mac
,
edgedevice.ini
,
routers.ini
,
local_publish.cfg
and
dx_publish.cfg
)
so the console fits into a particular VistaMax com-
munity. This is covered in more detail throughout
the remainder of this chapter.
The VMCC program (icon:
) not only sets
up and maintains files for any RMX
digital con-
sole—it also does the same thing for all VistaMax
community members (any RMX
digital or BMX-
digital console, VistaMax rack or VistaMax edge
device connected to the LAN). It also automati-
cally updates each interdependent file when any
