b Device Setup panel — This panel controls various global actions for the device.
zDevice Type — This field will always display storage as the device type for the
VNM Recorder and cannot be changed.
NOTE: When this field displays none, source, or display, it means that the
device is a codec, encoder, or decoder.
zMode — A device can be configured using four modes.
NOTE: This configuration option is not available for the VNM Recorder. These
modes are detailed for reference purposes.
zenable — This is normal operation.
zdisable — Using this mode on a source device stops streaming to the
network, but still shows pass‑through output. Using this mode on a display
device outputs a splash screen in place of normal data.
zstandby — Using this mode on a source device stops streaming and disables
pass‑through output. Using this mode on a display device disables all output.
VN‑Matrix 300 / 325 devices do not support standby mode.
ztest — Using this mode on a device (source or display) shows a splash screen
with the words "Test Mode". Normal streaming is suspended.
zData Interface — This option allows the streaming interface to be specified.
Currently, the only option available is Cat6, which uses the eth0 (primary)
network interface.
zMulticast TTL — This field is used to specify the number of hops multicast traffic
will make between routed domains when it exits a source. It is not used for TCP or
unicast RTP traffic and is only used on a source.
c Licensed Features panel — This panel is used to manage the device license and
indicates what features the user has access to. If the device has an incorrect checksum
for the licensed features, a license error message will be shown and the device will not
support streaming functions.
NOTE: The VNM Recorder contains a default license that allows for five recorder
channels and five player channels. It is currently not possible to change the
device license on the VNM Recorder.
CAUTION: DO NOT place controller license information into this panel. Doing
this may cause the VNM Recorder to stop responding. This panel is used for
device licenses only. See Controller Licensing on page 42 of the Accounts
Page section for information about controller licenses.
d Configuration panel — This panel indicates what features the user is able to control.
Each device consists of a number of components which are accessed by clicking on
the appropriate links.
The Recorder icon accesses the pages that manage the recording of VN-Matrix
PURE3 streams to the VNM Recorder hard disk.
The Player icon accesses the pages that manage the playback of previously
recorded VN-Matrix PURE3 streams.
