Click the '+' sign next to the IP address, followed by the '+' sign next to ASI Inputs to view the eighteen
ASI inputs that are present. For simplicity a description of one of the inputs will be provided, this
description applies to all eighteen different ASI inputs. Right click Input 1 and select view configuration.
This configuration window is divided into 6 different tabs, the following sections 3.2.1 to 3.3.4 provide
detailed descriptions of each tab.

3.2.1. PID Monitor Tab

The PID Monitor tab is where VLPro displays the standard Transport Stream parameters. As shown in
Figure 3-3 it is possible to see a basic view of most of the packets within the TS stream. They are
organized in ascending order by Service ID but can also be re-ordered by Prog #. This can be done by
double clicking the column header, make sure you are not in the auto refresh mode when doing this.
For each individual PID it is possible to view its type and encoding standard.
Note: The PID Monitor is a dynamic view; by clicking the auto refresh button it is
possible to see near instantaneous values for the stream.
