External Control
Vega serial and IP ports are set by default to allow external system controllers to be directly
connected, to control the router.
Video source and destination numbers are as labelled on the router rear panels. Please
refer to the Vega User Manual for audio offsets and mapping of audio inputs and outputs.
Redundant Internal Controller (Controller B if fitted)
If the main internal controller (Controller A) fails, control is automatically transferred to the
redundant internal controller (Controller B).
Controller B is on the second ethernet port and has default IP address
172.19.39.151
.
Finally
Once testing has been successfully completed, power off the Vega 100 Series router by
removing the mains leads from the live power source.
The router can now be installed where required. See the Vega 100 Series User Manual for
rack mounting details.
Updating Vega
The software and firmware of both Vega controllers can be updated remotely using the IP
network link (via the SAM RollCall control panel screen).
It is also possible to update the firmware of the input/output cards and the crosspoint
cards.
Please refer to the Vega 100 Series user manual for the recommended update procedure.
