APWeb – Initial Setup by Network Admin

When entering the number of the new routing level (VM), apply the following rules:

VM Numbering Rules

The VM number must match the level numbers on the Octaire as follows:

All (audio-follow-video) routing level (VM) = 0

Video routing level (VM) = 1

Audio routing level (VM) = 2

Important: When you specify the number of inputs and outputs for a VM, they will always correspond to the first inputs and outputs in the system. For example, if you want to create a VM that only provides access to 16 outputs in a system with 48 outputs, they will be the first 16 outputs.

To manually define a routing level (VM):

1.From any page in the website, click the Configuration link.

2.Under Bootup Operations (Discover System Configuration must be selected), unselect the Force VM Discovery option.

3.Click Apply and reboot when prompted.

4.From any page in the website, click the Define VM link.

5.If desired or required, delete the existing VM definitions first (see the instructions below).

6.Enter a VM number (follow the Numbering Rules above).

7.Enter the corresponding VM name: All (audio-follow-video), Video, or Audio.

8.Enter the number of inputs and outputs for the system (e.g., No. Inputs 48, No. Outputs 16).

9.Click Create.

The VM is added to the drop down list in the VM Selection Pad dialog box for the XBar, to the Home page, and to the list of VMs under the Delete VM section.

Note: Deleting a VM that corresponds to one of the preconfigured levels on the Octaire will remove it from the APWeb server but not from the Octaire itself. To recover the preconfigured levels, turn VM discovery back on (reselect the Force VM Discovery option, see Steps 1 and 2 above). When APWeb is rebooted, the routing levels from the systems will be retrieved and replace the manually configured ones in the list.

To delete an existing routing level (VM):

1.From any page in the website, click the Define VM link.

2.Under the Delete VM section, select one or more VMs to be deleted from the VM list (to multi- select, hold down the Control key on your PC as you click each VM).

3.Click Delete.

The VM is removed from the list (and is also removed on the Home page and from the drop down list in the VM Selection Pad dialog box for the XBar).
