Configuring the AOIP Merging Option Card
This appendix provides basic information about configuring the Merging ZMAN card
by invoking the card’s internal configuration application. The Merging card can be
configured through a connection to the Ethernet AOIP Port using a browser on the
Ravenna network and by using the Merging Aneman Windows application. Aneman
is available for free download at:
https://www.merging.com/support/downloads#aneman
The iAM-12G-SDI can be configured using its Front Panel controls or its web
interface through its Management port. Details specific to the iAM-12G-SDI can be
found in Chapters 2 and 4 of this manual.
For a Quick Start, set the Source Select menu item on the Front Panel to AOIP to
configure iAM-12G-SDI to receive/source a Ravenna Stream over its AOIP port.
The Source Select Menu control also allows selection of a range of channels in
groups of 16 channels 1-16 … 49-64. More details including definition of Presets
and individual channel parameters are available by reference to other chapters of
this manual.
The Merging Ravenna card runs specific firmware from Merging and augmented by
Wohler for use within the iAM-12G-SDI. The card will not function correctly if the
user downloads and installs firmware from any source besides Wohler. The Wohler
augmentation includes the ability to support 64 channels.
The Merging card is pre-configured to DHCP mode to obtain its IP address
automatically from the Ravenna network. The Ravenna network should be a
separate address space from the iAM-12G-SDI Management port. For example, the
iAM-12G-SDI might be connected to a 10.11.11 subnet and the Ravenna network
devices connected together on a 10.15.15 subnet. Aneman and a suitable browser
must be resident on a host workstation on the same Ravenna subnet to access the
Merging card. For this Appendix, the Ravenna network address will be referred to
as <Ravenna subnet>. The Merging card address will then be <Ravenna subnet>.x
where x is the specific address of the card on the subnet.
Power the iAM-12G-SDI and verify the Ethernet connector LEDs are lit and/or
blinking. It may take a few minutes for the card to be fully recognized on the
Ravenna network after powering the iAM-12G-SDI.
For Aneman access, the card parameters including its IP address should appear in a
panel at the bottom of the screen. In Aneman, make sure Devices under Menu
