MX-FR Series Modular Matrix Frames – User's Manual

Applied CPU2 firmware: v3.5.7b8 | LDC software: v2.5.17b2
Locking Operation Flowchart
Buttons on the extenders can be locked by front panel operation or remotely, but the two ways of locking are
not the same. If buttons were locked by a front panel operation, they can be unlocked by a RICOD unlock
command followed by an unlock operation on the front panel.
Video Routers
The routers behave differently, because locking the whole front panel is not reasonable. When the RICOD
function is enabled for an output port (see RICOD_SLEN command in the
Querying the RICOD SLAVE Status
section) and a lock command is received over the same port, then the output port will be "output locked".
This is the same output lock function as described in the
section. The output lock is reported
back by the protocol (shown in the controller software and on the web, as well) and displayed on the front
panel. The output lock can be overridden and turned off by protocol or front panel.
If the output lock is enabled for a given port, a remote RICOD command is also able to turn it off.
ATTENTION!
The accepted RICOD command overrides the output lock function. If the RICOD function is
turned on for a given output port, then the output lock condition can be changed remotely.

RICOD-Capable Devices
The RICOD functionality is currently implemented in the following devices:
▪
MX-FR frames with CPU2, firmware version 3.3.5r and above.
▪
UMX4x4 Pro, firmware version 1.2.4r and above.
▪
UMX-TP-TX100R, firmware version 1.1.6r and above.
▪
WP-UMX-TP-TX100, firmware version 1.1.0r and above.
▪
FP-UMX-TP-TX100, firmware version 1.1.0r and above.
* The MX-FR series modular matrix frames with MX-CPU2 processor boards (with firmware version 3.3.5r
and above) support reduced RICOD capabilities: only MASTER mode is available and only by protocol
commands. RICOD SLAVE mode and the front panel operation are not implemented.
