Product Manual – DOC. 8879C
Using SIMPL Windows
NOTE:
Selection of the transmitters for subscription or selection of subscription lists can
be performed using the web interface only.
Manually select a subscribed transmitter for routing in Slot-1000: XIO Routing. Set the
<VideoOut>
analog input join to the desired transmitter. For additional information,
refer to the SIMPL Windows help file.
Daisy Chain
DM-NVX-36x(C) devices include two RJ-45 1000BASE-T ports (Ethernet ports 1 and 2)
and one SFP LAN port (Ethernet port 4). The ports can be used to daisy chain multiple
DM NVX devices. In a daisy chain configuration, DM NVX devices connect directly to one
another in a series. The daisy chain configuration can consist of one transmitter and up
to 64 receivers or can include receivers only (maximum of 64). Only one DM NVX device in
the daisy chain must connect to the LAN. All DM NVX devices in the daisy chain must use
the same stream.
NOTES:
•
A daisy chain configuration is not supported if Port Selection functionality is enabled.
Refer to “Network Port Selection” on page 66 for additional information.
•
A daisy chain configuration can be used for a video wall (refer to “Video Wall
Processing” on page 47) and also for individual displays that are to show the same
video image.
The following sections provide information about switching subscribed and
nonsubscribed transmitters in a daisy chain configuration.
Switching Subscribed Transmitters

use the web interface or SIMPL Windows.

1.
Click the Settings tab and then click Routing.
2.
In the Stream Routing section:
