"send on Level"
will stream if the incoming sound is above
the Trigger level
Trigger level
Only used when Streaming mode is
Set to a value between 0 and 65535.
Open the Device status page and look for the Input peak
value to get a hint for the trigger value. This page refreshes
itself every second.
Pre Trigger Start
Pre Trigger Start can be adjusted to prevent cut offs when
starting to talk too early. It defines the amount of time that
will be streamed before the actual trigger occurred.
Post Trigger Play
Post Trigger Play can be adjusted to prevent cut offs when
releasing the button too early. Defines the amount of time
that the device will stream on after the actual trigger has
been cleared.
Buffer Underrun Mode (TCP)
The Buffer Underrun Mode defines the action if a TCP
stream is slower than the real stream from the encoder. In
this case the output streaming buffer underruns and cannot
hold older data anymore. The device can then "disconnect"
the TCP connection or it can "skip" the stream directly to
the encoder stream without disconnecting TCP.
Stream Packet Strategy
The Streaming Strategy defines how a packet is build and
sent. On "lowest latency" the encoded data will be sent
directly after the encoding. On "optimal package" the
packet will be filled up before sending.
UDP Tx Source Port
This setting is only used when working with a custom
software application. Enter the source port number to be
used when sending a UDP stream. Set to a value between 0
and 65535. When set to 0 the source port is set to the
same port as selected in destination port in section
to
. If destination is set to
Receiver Port is used.
Radio Path
Enter a radio path to listen to the transmitted stream of
this device using an MP3 player program like WinAmp.
The URL to connect is http://x.x.x.x/p
http://x.x.x.x/p. Where x.x.x.x
http://x.x.x.x/p
http://x.x.x.x/p
the IP address of this device and /p /p /p /p is this path.
Example: http://192.168.0.24/xstream
The device can serve up to 6 radio streams.
Stream to
There are up to 8 destinations to stream to. Each one can
be directed to a device, multicast or broadcast address.
Conn. type
Choose the type of connection:
"not used"
for unused destinations
"Raw UDP"
for a UDP connection
"Raw TCP"
for a TCP connection
"on Level"
.
"origin source"
then UDP
x.x.x.x is
x.x.x.x
x.x.x.x
IP # # # #
Enter the 4 values of the destination IP address e.g.:
"0.0.0.0"
for unused destinations except when connection
type set to UDP it will be broadcasted e.g. "192.168.0.255"
"192.168.0.34"
"192.168.0.255"
Port #
Enter the port number to be used for each destination.
Set to a value between 0 and 65535. A
destinations will use the respective
are set to
"3030"
UDP
Note
The default setting (factory defaults) for the streaming
destination # 1 is Raw UDP 0.0.0.0 : 0. This means it is
UDP broadcasting on port 3030!
Considerations
The choice of settings to distribute the stream to other
devices depends on your environment and desired
functionality.
If the stream should be received guaranteed by only a few
devices (up to 8) we recommend to use TCP since lost
packets are retransmitted automatically.
If the stream is intended to be received by many devices
we recommend to use UDP broadcast as long as all devices
are on the LAN as broadcast is not be able to pass over a
WAN.
If your network infrastructure is capable of multicasting use
multicast to reduce the traffic generated by broadcasting.
A mix of all the above is possible as each of the 8 destina-
tions allow the individually choice of the connection type.
7.6 SNMP settings
Stream
SNMP settings are for advanced users only. Different
SNMP traps can be generated depending on the state of the
Barix Instreamer. The traps are triggered according to
specific audio values as following:
Trap Target IP Address
Enter the IP address of the SNMP trap destination.
Low Audio Level
Define the low audio level for the trap generation. A trap
will be generated as soon as the audio level goes below this
value (aud the silence timeout is run out).
High Audio Level
Define the high audio level for the trap generation. A trap
will be generated as soon as the audio level goes above this
value.
Trap Repeat
Define the repeat interval for the SNMP trap sending. The
trap will be repeated if the values are still according to the
defined trap stages after this repeat time.
