Customize Labels - Router Deck Control
If your Videohub features RS-422 deck control ports, Customize Labels is also used to specify the labels
assigned to each RS-422 serial port. You can label these ports in a similar way to the video ports.
Videohub will automatically change serial port directions. You can connect any deck or workstation, whether
they are acting as slave or master, to any port on the Videohub.
When two RS-422 ports are routed to each other, Videohub will automatically change the direction
of the serial port communication, determining which are the slave and master devices. Videohub
will detect any change in the master and slave devices and will automatically change the direction of
RS-422 control as required.
This is very useful in situations where you’re running deck to deck editing. The deck with which you’re
editing and setting in and out points, becomes a master controller which controls another slave deck. In this
example, the deck with which you set the in and out points becomes a controller device. That’s because
this deck is now controlling another deck. Deck to deck editing is not as popular as it once was but with
Videohub it’s still easy.
