2 The most advanced control system FEWER REStartS Ppowerful control hardware Miranda offers two choices for enterprise-class NVISION 9000 controllers. The NVISION 920 can be either a single or dual redundant controller in 1ru, perfect for all applications in which rackspace, low noise and low power/heat considerations are paramount. The NV960 controllers are 2ru servers designed for maximum network and router/panel capacity for complex, multi-router / multi-control system applications. Dual redundancy options for both controllers provide hot-standby, mirrored redundancy for continuous, fail-safe operation in the most demanding environments. dynamic updates: no need for restarts Another aspect of the system s resilience is its dynamic configuration capability. The system can be reconfigured for many new workflow parameters, without a requirement to restart the system or take it offline. The process of reconfiguration is speeded by the efficient design of the database which avoids duplication of data entry. instant recall of SYStem snapshots To improve productivity in production control rooms, the controllers allow saving and recalling of system snapshots, which capture the current NVISION 9000 configuration, as well as the current state of the crosspoint image in all the routers in the system. This allows an operator to save configurations for specific productions, and then instantly re-load them when they are required for the next production. CENTRALIZED DIStriBUTED FflEXible, VErsatile architecture Miranda NVISION routers offer outstanding control flexibility, and can be configured for centralized or distributed operations. In essence, the system can be readily adapted for different workflows and administration requirements. The NVISION 9000 control system leverages the power of Miranda s Hybrid Routing architecture that offers the convenience of integrated audio processing and simplified cable management with no compromises on reliability. NVISION 9000 s optional DHP (Dynamic Hybrid Pathfinding) automatically routes signals via the audio processing modules whenever required, under manual or automated control, and can extend hybrid audio functionality even when the NVISION router is not a full hybrid router. Uunprecedented, facility wide integration NVISION routers provide exceptional integration across a facility, including with multiviewers, signal processors, master control switchers and production switchers. This streamlines facility hardware and lowers costs, and can also deliver enhanced operator productivity from improved control systems (see Kaleido multiviewers). Vtr 01 advanced tally management The NVISION 9000 control system offers advanced tally management with production switchers and monitor wall systems in control rooms. The system also provides rich integration with thirdparty tally controllers. Easier transition to 3gBps/ HD from legacy routing With highly effective bridging with legacy third-party routers, the NVISION controller allows a simpler transition to 3Gbps/HD. A phased move to 3Gbps/HD can be made, with minimal disruption and cost, by first controlling an NVISION router with an existing supported thirdparty controller. Subsequently, the facility can move to a more advanced NVISION control system. Aadvanced re-legendable NVISion control panels A wide array of control panels is available to address the workflow requirements of different operator positions, including soft panels, hard panels, and new re-legendable LCD panels. These panels can all be mixed-and-matched to suit individual station requirements. integration with Compact router system The highly space and cost efficient NVISION Compact routers can be controlled by the NVISION 9000 controller. This brings more advanced control options to the NVISION Compact routers range, and allows full integration of systems comprising NVISION Compact routers and other NVISION routers. Aadvanced tie-line management The system can be configured for very large systems, with up to 400 control panels and up to 250 routers per system controller. Complex interactions with multiple routers can be configured using advanced multi-hop, tie-line management abilities. 252

9 ORDERING INFORMATION The NVISION 9000 control system is an advanced platform for routing control. Different configurations of the system controllers are available to address a broad range of requirements with regards to features, function and redundancy. NV960 uses a single 2RU system controller, NV965 uses a pair of 2RU system controllers to offer full redundancy. NV967 includes a pair of system controllers, RS-485 port cards, NV9700 remote diagnostic and change-over panel, as well as all cables required to connect the included components together. NV920 is the latest enterprise-class controller hardware, which offers single or redundant configurations in a 1RU rack size. The NV920 runs the same NV9000 software as the NV960 platform, and includes many of the same options, but fewer TCP/IP ports and less serial control functionality. The NV920 is ideal for most applications, especially when rack space, heat emission, and power consumption are concerns. The NV960 hardware should be used for DHP applications.
