Each control code pair is sent twice. provides the same processing as for n=3.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming 5.3.16. Display System Status This command displays the upstream line 21 data channels that are turned on (i.e.: upstream data being passed through to the output) and the number of bytes of memory remaining to store articles and XDS packets.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming The parameter name identifies the name of the article. The article can subsequently be referred to by its name. If the article name already exists, the new article with the same name will replace the previous article.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming The article called ‘Test” will be placed at the end of the Text 2 output queue. The article will be deleted after it is output 5 times. ^A1<sp>Test<sp>T2<sp>9999<sp>H<cr> The article called ‘Test” will have its repeat count change to indefinite. It will not be placed into any of the output queues.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming 5.4.5. Display Article Status This command allows the user to view the list of articles stored in the article memory and display their status. The status includes the article name, repeat count, (9999 if infinite) the keep/delete status, and the memory storage needed for the article.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming 5.5. EXTENDED DATA SERVICES Extended Data Services (XDS) information is encoded into Field 2 and is intended to supply program related and other information to the viewer. XDS data can inform the viewer of such information as current program title, length of show, type of show, time left in show, and V-Chip-compatible program rating information.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming The XDS article length is checked for the following commonly used articles: Program ID (0101), V-Chip Content Advisory (0105), Station Call Letters (0502), and Time Zone (0704). If the article length is not in the valid range for the packet type, the encoder will reject it.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming 5.5.3. Queue XDS Packets This command will delete the entire specified XDS output queue and replace it with the packets named (if any). The user enters the packet ids of the XDS packets separated by <cr> in the order that they are to appear in the output queue.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming When multiple ports are permitted access to a particular data type, conflicts will be resolved on a “first come, first served” basis. The caption encoder maintains a list of which ports are active for each data type. Normally, the various keyer commands (such as ^A2, ^A3, ^A6, ^A7) will set and clear the active status automatically.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming Example: ^AQ PB – XDS –T2 –C2 C1 T1<cr> This command will disallow Port B from all field 2 data types, and enable Port B for captions and text in field 1. ^AQ C1<cr>...
This command will reset a port. This command immediately clears the input and output data queues and resets the MIO-CCE-4K/3G to the Transparent State in Field 1 and Field 2. Article and XDS output queues are not reset by this command. They must be explicitly reset by using the queue articles and queue XDS commands.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming UPGRADE PROCEDURES 6.1. FIRMWARE UPGRADE Using the WebEASY on a web interface is the fastest and recommended way to load the firmware onto the ® MIO-CCE-3G/4K modules. On the top of the web page for the MIO-CCE-3G/4K modules, there is a button labelled Upgrade. The Upgrade tab is used to check current firmware version and upload the latest firmware (Figure 5-1).
Control A Protocol Test Using a Terminal Program Control-A protocol can be used to determine if captions are processed and available out of Ports A, B, or C. Please ensure the latest firmware is downloaded from www.evertz.com and installed in the MIO-CCE- 3G/4K.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming Set the Port settings to match the settings in Hyper-terminal as shown above. • Press ENTER on the keyboard and ensure you see an asterix (*) prompt every time you push the •...
Captions are Not Being Encoded At All If there is no option in the captioning/teleprompter software for the Evertz encoder, configure your software to communicate with an EEG 270, EEG 370 or EEG 470 model Smart Encoder. The Evertz caption protocol is compatible with these units.
MIO–CCE–4K/3G SMPTE ST 2110/4K/3G/HD/SD Closed Caption Encoder with Media–to–IP Streaming 7.1.8. How Can I Block Upstream Captions? Depending on the user’s specific needs, there are many ways to accomplish this. If all upstream captions are to be blocked, the recommended approach is to issue the serial port commands ^A6 F1 and ^A6 F2 to place both Field 1 and Field 2 into NULL STATE.
7.2. BEFORE YOU CALL EVERTZ TECHNICAL SUPPORT Check for any product upgrades that may address your problem at the Evertz web site (www.evertz.com) and consult your software vendor. After reviewing the website and calling Evertz customer service, you will be asked for specific technical information, which should be prepared in advance for speedy assistance: •...
