Page 45: Cm-4400 Control System's Protection Features
CM-4400 Control System’s Protection Features CM-4400 Control System’s Protection Features The CM-4400 has many features that are for your protection. These features include: • Alarms • Single CM-4400 • Redundant CM-4400 • Redundant Units Alarm Modes The CM-4400’s alarm system will start in the following conditions: •...
Page 46: Alarms In A Single Cm-4400 Installation
Section 2 — Hardware Installation Alarms in a Single CM-4400 Installation If the master alarm is asserted by the main CPU watchdog timer (and assuming that the power supply is operating properly), the CM-4400 will be rebooted automatically. Alarms in a Redundant CM-4400 Installation For additional protection, a redundant CM-4400 can be installed.
Page 47: Replacing A Failed Redundant Unit
CM-4400 Control System’s Protection Features Replacing a Failed Redundant Unit Protection can be further enhanced by maintaining a third Control Module (CM) as a replacement or stand-by unit (See Figure 10). Should the master fail, the redundant CM-4400 would assume control; the third CM-4400 would then be installed on the network and the failed master removed.
Page 48 Section 2 — Hardware Installation A fault condition is indicated by a “00,” “01,” or “FF” indication on the front panel LED display, or, in the case of a failed power supply, no illumi- nated lamps. Router control should have been switched to the other CM. Verify that control has switched by looking for the green Activate lamp.

Page 164: Entering Or Editing Input Names And Numbers
Section 5 — The Configurator Application 2. A more flexible approach is to modify the Switcher Input table so that a single input name will address different physical inputs from one level to another. For example, the switcher could be wired as shown in Figure 114, where black burst is input 64 on the video level, test tone is input 0 on the audio levels, and a time code generator is input 0 on the time code level.
Page 165 Switcher Input Table 4. Add new inputs at the end of the tables. Row numbers on Jupiter tables are used as the logical numbers for sources. Changing the row number of an existing source (by inserting/ deleting a new input in the middle of the table, for example) will disrupt control of the system.

Page 208: Point-To-Point Switching
Section 5 — The Configurator Application Point-to-Point Switching Point-to-point switching insures that a source can be switched to only one destination at a time. Jupiter AccuSwitch supports the following router options support point- to-point switching: • Advise • Enforce A safe input must be configured for point-to-point switching to occur. The SAFE input A SAFE input must be defined before a destination can be cleared.
Page 209 Point-to-Point Switching In the example above (Figure 154), VCR 1 is the only destination that is receiving data from the editor. The transmit data from an editor can only be switched to one VCR at a time. Point-to-Point Switching Router Options The router options are explained below: Enforce: When the Enforce option is selected or turned on, the software will automatically switch the previous destination to the SAFE input.
