ASI-IP-GTW User's Manual

When the bi-directional feature is enabled, a third option ‘ASI <--> IP’ is available to operate half of the ASI connectors as inputs and the other half as outputs.

Note that a mode switch requires a device re-boot, this is done automatically when pressing OK in the confirmation window that is displayed when a new mode is selected.

Reset device: Press this button to perform a soft reset of the device. An alert is displayed, with an option to cancel, before the reset message is sent to the box.

On the lower part of the Device info page, three sub-pages are available: Network, Time settings and Alarms.
