Switcher Output Table
The Switcher Output table (Figure120) performs similar functions as the
Switcher Input Table except that it applies to outputs.
Figure 120. Example of the Switcher Output Table
The Switcher Output table is used to give each physical output a logical
name in the Logical Output Name column. These names can be up to eight
characters in length. One table must be defined for each switcher in the
system.
In Venus DM 400B data switching applicat
ions, the Switcher Output table
is used to assign a logical name to each physical port connected to a “con-
troller” device.
Security
Unlike the Switcher Inputs table, the outputs table has several provisions
for security.
A Security Board can be identified for an
output by entering the name of a
controller board in the Security field (such as “CM1”). This setting would
limit switching the output to only controls that are connected to that board.
The name must be one of those already entered in the Switcher Description
Ta bl e.
A Security Board Type can be entered in the S-T fi
eld. Only controls con-
nected to a control board of that type
could then be used to switch the
output. A dash (“−”) entry in the S-T field means “none.” The board types
that can be selected are “VM” and “SI.”
A Password level can be entered in the Password field for the output. This
option is descr
ibed in Setting Password Levels for Switcher Outputs on
page 147.
