Configuring a Router Controller
295
This is the logical router that will be controlled by the router control panel. When the multi-viewer
receives commands over the serial port on the output card selected in step 4, it will know these are
destined for the logical router corresponding to “SmallLogicalRouter”.
To add a control panel that uses the SW-P-02 protocol:
• Refer to procedure above but, at step 1, select Router Controller (Pro-Bel SW-P-02) from the
Equipment library instead of Router Controller (Network Compact) .
Adding an Intelligent Router Controller
An intelligent router controller is one that can issue switching commands to any router connected to
(controlled by) the multi-viewer. In order to be able to do this, it must attach a unique identifier to each
command that will allow the Kaleido-X Software to direct the command to the appropriate device. This
unique identifier is the “Logical router matrix ID”, which is similar to the “Level or frame ID” for a physical
router, but identifies a logical router.
So, for example, if you press a button on the external panel that is set up to make a crosspoint change on
logical router matrix ID 0, the Kaleido-X Software will receive this command, look up matrix ID 0 to find
the physical router it is mapped to, and then forward the crosspoint change to the physical router using
the appropriate protocol. In such cases, the Kaleido-X Software acts as a “protocol translator” for the
control panel.
To add a Snell (Pro-Bel) SW-P-08 (or equivalent) router controller:
1. Click and drag Router Controller (Pro-Bel SW-P-08) from the Equipment library to the System
hierarchical list:
Note: The VikinX Compact protocol allows you to specify one logical router only (it is a one-to-one
controller protocol).
