16 3-2. Redundant Processor A secondary CPU can be installed on MFR Series main units (excluding MFR-1616/1616A) to configure CPU redundancy. An active CPU controls the system and the other CPU monitors the system. The CPU usage state (which CPU is active) can be checked by monitoring through Web-Based Control. * Note that CPU change-over takes about 30 seconds from when an abnormal condition occurs. MFR-5000/8000 MFR-5000/8000 main units have two LAN ports for connecting to a computer. Make sure to open Web-Based Control via the LAN port of an active CPU. Otherwise, the message as shown in the figure below will appear and the settings will not be applied. Settings in the Network Settings and SNMP Settings page, however, are possible on an inactive CPU. A message will appear when connecting to an inactive CPU. The CPU usage state (which CPU is active) can be checked under [mfrmucpustatus] > [mfrmuactivecpu] through SNMP. MFR-1616R / 3216 / 3216RPS / 3232 / 3232RPS / 3000 Normally the primary CPU is active and the secondary CPU (MFR-SRCPU/3000) is automatically activated to take over only when a failure occurs on the primary CPU. In the same way, Web-based Control normally connects to the primary CPU. When a failure occurs on the primary CPU, it automatically connects to the secondary CPU. An error message will appear when failures occur on the secondary CPU. If the secondary CPU is activated: MFR-1616R/3216/3232: When the primary CPU is active. When the secondary CPU is active. SRCPU is displayed under Unit Name. SRCPU is displayed. 16

Item Alternative Source Route Switching Mode Alternative source channel. RS-422 system requires one-to-one (destination to source) assignments. Therefore, if a source has assigned to a destination and another destination selects the source, the Alternative Source is forcibly assigned to the former destination. Two routing paths are available for routing within a card. Via Main MTX Direct Signals are routed through the Matrix card. Fastest and minimum routing. (Available when input and output ports are on the same card. Switching Mode should be OFF.) If the mode is enabled (ON), RS-422 data are arranged in 8-bit data unit to prevent data loss or corruption during switching. In such case, a Data rate, Parity and Stop bit should be set for all communications transferred across the card. Data Rate: Setting range: 2,400 bps to 115,200 bps. Parity: Select from None, Odd or Even. Stop Bit. Select 1-bit or 2-bit. 62

63 RS-422 Data I/O Settings (1) Click a slot label in the Port Assign area. A port list of the RS-422 data I/O card installed in the slot is displayed below the slot label. (2) Specify a logical level under Level. (3) Performs the required port settings. Click the slot label again to close the port list. Item IN/OUT Channel Pin Assign 2-way Assign Input (SRC), Output (DST), or None for a port. Both Input and Output can be assigned to a single port. This can dynamically change Input / Output and pin assignments. (2-Way must be checked on.) Specify a logical level under Level. Select a pin assignments type: Device: Used in cases such as VTR connections via cross-over cable. Controller: Used in cases such as Editor connections via cross-over cable. If checked on, both Input and Output can be assigned to a single port. IMPORTANT Note that data switches may be delayed by one field relative to video or audio switches due to a delay when Switching Mode is set to ON. Lossless data transfer cannot be guaranteed when pin assignments of a port are automatically changed due to the 2-way function. 63

124 12. Main Unit Link The Main Unit Link feature is available in the following versions. MFR-3232/3232RPS/3216/3216RPS/1616/1616R Firmware version 1.22 or higher (MFR-1616A: 1.23 or higher) GUI version: 1.61 or higher MFR-5000 Firmware version 1.62 or higher GUI version 1.63 or higher MFR-8000 Firmware version 1.65 or higher GUI version 1.68 or higher MFR-5000/8000 Mixed Link Firmware version 1.76 or higher GUI version 1.85 or higher MFR-3000 Firmware version 1.78 or higher GUI version 1.84 or higher If a serial port on a Main Unit is set to one of the following: Router / HVS connection Router / HVS connection type2 Tally out (TSL Ver. 3.1) Tally out (TSL Ver. 4.0) the Main Unit Link mode cannot be applied to the Main Unit. To apply the Link mode, change the serial port setting. (See section Port Settings. ) Two types of link systems are available: Parallel Link and Expanded Matrix. (MFR-8000 units support only the Parallel Link mode.) When a Main Unit link is properly set, the linked Main Units are displayed on the navigation tree in the left pane of the window as shown below. <Parallel Link system> <Expanded Matrix system> 124

125 12-1. Parallel Link System Example The following procedure explains how to set up a parallel link of an MFR-1616 (for video signals) and MFR-1616A (for audio signals) units. The MFR-1616 acts as Master and when crosspoints are changed in the MFR-1616, they are also changed on the MFR-1616A accordingly. <Main Unit Link Setup> 1. Refer to section "Parallel Link System Example" in the MFR-1616/ 1616R/ 3216/ 3216RPS/ 3232/ 3232RPS/ 1616A Operation Manual to set IP addresses for the Main Units. MFR-1616 (Master) MFR-1616A (Slave) MFR-LAN PC-LAN Connect the MFR-1616, MFR-1616A, Remote Units and a PC (GUI). 3. Access the [Web-based Control] of the MFR-1616 by specifying 4. Open the Build Settings page and set link settings as shown below. Check on the Build Enable check box. Select 10 for the Master Unit ID. Click Link on the MFR-1616 displayed in the Linked Matrix area, then click Send. Click Link on the MFR-1616A to add it to the link system as a slave. 5. Re-open the Build Settings page of the MFR The MFR system will change to Main Unit Link mode and the MFR-1616A will appear on the navigation tree in the left pane. 6. Click Link on the MFR-1616A, then click Send. A warning message for Source/Dest Assignment will be displayed. If you want to create assignments automatically, click OK. If you want to create assingments manually, click Cancel. Once the video and audio parallel link system is properly set, crosspoints on the MFR-1616A will be switched in accordance with crosspoint changes on the MFR

126 12-2. Expanded Matrix System Example The following procedure explains how to set up an Expanded Matrix link using three MFR-3232 units. <Setting Up the Main Unit Link> 1. Refer to section "Expanded Matrix System Example" in the MFR-1616/ 1616R/ 3216/ 3216RPS/ 3232/ 3232RPS/ 1616A Operation Manual to change IP addresses for the Main Units, for example, as shown in the table below, and do not overlap the IP address in the same subnet. MFR-3232 (Master) MFR-3232 (Slave) MFR-3232 (Slave) MFR-LAN PC-LAN Connect all devices, the Main and Remote Units and a PC(GUI), within the system. 3. Access to the [Web-based Control] of the MFR-3232 to be set as the Master unit by specifying its URL. ( in the example above) 4. Open the Build Settings page and set link settings as shown below. Check on the Build Enable check box. Select 10 for the Master Unit ID. Click Link on the MFR-3232 displayed in the Linked Matrix area, then click Send. 5. Re-open the Build Settings page of the Master unit. The MFR system will change to Main Unit Link mode and the two other MFR-3232 units will appear on the navigation tree in the left pane. Click Link. Click Link. 126

127 6. Click Add Expanded Matrix to display the Matrix Setup area. 7. Click on a desired matrix pattern to display the pattern in the Matrix Setup area. Click Select Unit ("A" in the figure at left), then click on the MFR-3232 ("B" in the figure) to add the MFR-3232 to the link system as shown in the figure at right. A B 127

128 8. Repeat Step 7 to complete your matrix pattern, then click OK to apply settings. 9. Signal connections (I/O connections of these units) and input and output sizes (numbers) will be displayed in the matrix pattern area. Click Send to confirm the settings. Wait until the Applying Build Settings message disappears and then click Send. 10. A warning message for Source/Dest Assignment will be displayed. If you want to create assignemnts automatically, click OK. If you want to create assignments manually, click Cancel. 128
