17.9 Enabling Relays & RS232 Data
Data must be enabled to activate contact closure operation and RS232 data. The codec supports
both in-band and out-of-band data depending on the algorithm you are using. In-band RPTP data
is automatically enabled when using the Tieline Music or MusicPLUS algorithms over IP. It is also
possible to enable synchronized out-of-band data using any algorithm via the
RS232 data port on
the codec.
Algorithm Selected IP
Tieline Music and
MusicPLUS
·
In-band RPTP data is enabled automatically
·
Synchronized out-of-band data can be enabled and disabled as
required
· Using out-of-band data with rules between G5 codecs employing
relay reflection minimizes latency
· These algorithms must be used when connected to G3 codecs
as they don't support out-of-band data
All other algorithms
· No in-band data available; synchronized out-of-band data can
be enabled and disabled
Select Enable Auxiliary Data when creating a program in the Program Manager panel to
enable out-of-band RS232 data and activate rules employing relay reflection over a connection.
This will allow the codec to connect to external devices and send RS232-compatible data via the
serial port on the rear panel. Alternatively, enable auxiliary data using the
Setup menu as follows:
1. Press the HOME button to return to the Home screen.
2. Use the navigation buttons on the front panel to select Connect and press the button.
3. Select IP and press the button.
4. Select Tieline (or Sessionless and then Peer-to-Peer ) and press the button.
5. Use the down navigation button to select Setup and press the button.
6. Navigate to Data and press to toggle between Enabled and Disabled (Note: default
setting is Disabled ).
Configuring Control Port Contact Closure Operation
The Rules panel in the Web-GUI can be used to configure switch inputs and relay outputs. Codec
'rules' configure events based on specific codec actions. Typically rules are based on a change in
the state of a physical
CONTROL PORT GPIO, or a WheatNet-IP logic IO, or a codec program
being connected or disconnected. Rules can only be created with the Web-GUI while the codec is
disconnected. There are three ways to create rules in the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI:
1. Rules panel : Configure codec level rules related to programs and/or hardware and
software I/O states.
2. Program Manager panel : Configure program level rules early in the Program Manager
panel wizard.
3. Program Manager panel : Configure stream level rules for an audio stream when
proceeding through the Program Manager panel wizard..
Important Notes: A non-WheatNet-IP Tieline codec can be configured to trigger a logic IO
in a Tieline Genie Distribution and Merlin PLUS WheatNet-IP codec, as well as physical
CONTROL PORT GPIOs. The codec has:
·
2 physical CONTROL PORT GPIOs.
· 5 Tieline and WheatNet virtual inputs (1-5). Note: Virtual inputs 3-5 can be
activated using the F1 button and keypad numbers 1-3 on the codec.
·
64 Tieline virtual logic outputs. Note: Tieline logic IOs (LIOs) are only
supported between Genie, Merlin, ViA and Bridge-IT IP codecs.
