    6.4 Service Failover and Intelligent Stream Redundancy There are two redundancy options available with a Service Failover license: 1. Service Failover – Configure a secondary source to replace a primary source in the same chassis when one or more user-configured trigger conditions are detected. 2.
  • Page 48 In Watch the source mode, source monitoring and secondary source substitution take place before the transcode processor. The substituted secondary source will be transcoded using the same transcode profile that was applied to the primary source. It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure that the transcode pro- cessor license and transcode profile are compatible with the secondary source.
  • Page 49 The Duration parameter to the right of PAT loss applies to the PAT loss, PMT loss, Video frame loss and the Encrypted stream errors parameters. Whenever a Threshold and Duration threshold is exceeded, an alarm is displayed in the Output Monitor. If Fail- over mode is set to Automatic Failover, the system will fail over to the configured secondary source.
  • Page 50 In all cases, alarms are generated when monitored parameters are exceeded. Figure 6.30 - Failover Modes Alarms When one or more monitor settings are exceeded, an alarm is generated for the output stream. The alarm mes- sage indicates the failover type and lists the triggered parameters. Examples of the alarm triggers are shown below.

    Note: When watching video in VLC it is recommended that the 1:1 Original Zoom level be used. Viewing in full screen mode requires that the video be scaled to match the monitor resolution, which may cause it to appear slightly distorted. If a larger image is desired, the 2:1 Zoom option can be used to scale the image without dis- tortion.
