    BrightEye NXT 430-X, 430, 415, 410-H, 410 Compact Routers Configuring Ports Some of the BrightEye NXT Router ports are fixed as inputs or outputs, whereas the flexible I/O ports are configured as inputs or outputs from the Ports menu. Naming the ports can make router operation more intuitive.
  • Page 9: Adjusting Audio Levels

    Quick Start Guide Adjusting Audio Levels When the signal is output through a Clean Switch, you can adjust audio levels on a per-input and per-channel basis. The BrightEye NXT compact routers can apply gain or attenuation from +12.0 dB to -70 dB. When the Clean Switch is in Mix mode, the audio output will properly mix between the adjusted settings of one input to the adjusted settings of the new source.
  • Page 10 BrightEye NXT 430-X, 430, 415, 410-H, 410 Compact Routers Clean Switching on Models 430 and 410 The BrightEye NXT 430 and 410 have two clean switches that are useful when switching between asynchronous sources or taking a router output directly to air. To switch cleanly between different sources, the sources and the clean switch must share the same format and standard.
  • Page 11 Clean Switching and Up/Down/Cross Converting on Models 430-X and 410-H The BrightEye NXT 430-X and 410-H have two clean switches with which you can switch between asynchronous sources without glitches or pops. Both clean switches also have up/down/cross converters. Simply by setting the output standard of each clean switch, configured independently, they automatically convert any SMPTE broadcast resolution source to your chosen output standard, regardless of the signal’s incoming format.

Plug an Ethernet cable into the BrightEye NXT Router to connect directly to a computer or to your Ethernet network.
  • Page 13 Quick Start Guide Requesting the Web Control Point After you have set the BrightEye NXT’s IP address to be compatible with your network, you can connect to the BrightEye NXT with a web browser to establish a web control point. Navigate to the BrightEye NXT’s new IP address with your web browser.
  • Page 14 BrightEye NXT 430-X, 430, 415, 410-H, 410 Compact Routers Web Browser Router Control Window You can control the router through its web browser user interface to perform takes, direct takes, dissolves, gang, and gang combined with direct takes. Thumbnail representations of the router’s Sources are shown in the upper area, Destinations in the lower area.
  • Page 15 Quick Start Guide Settings Menu > Profiles The web browser Settings menus provide complete control of the router, including a software update interface, network settings, timing and automation control. Of special interest is the Profiles menu which allows you to define which Sources and Destinations can be accessed from a Control Point other than the router itself.
