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. The memory on the controller boards will
need to be cleared and reset (see Clearing Persistent Memory (PMEM) on
page 106). Adding new inputs at the end of tables will
help to avoid this
interruption.
5. Save your changes, validate, compile, and activate the configuration
set.
Data Switching Applications
In Venus DM 400B data switching applications, the switcher input table is
used to assign a logical name to each physical port connected to a “tribu-
tary” device. See Figure115 for an example and the Switche
r Input table
settings.
Figure 115. Example of DM 400B System.
Similarly, the switcher output table is used to assign a logical name to each
physical port connected to a “controller” device.
Note All port numbers that reside in the Switcher Output table must also have an
entry in the Switcher Input table (This is done to avoid possible Status display
problems and is checked by the PC compiler).
