ASI-310 User Manual (Iss. 03) Configuration • 4–7
Alarm Settings
The Alarms Settings tab allows you to specify the conditions that are included in the Card
Status tab and reported though SNMP if enabled on the frame.
To specify the error conditions to report:
1. Select the Alarms Settings tab.
Alarms Settings Tab
2. Select the Unsupported Rear Module box to report when the ASI-310 does not work
properly with the installed rear module; for example, it may be missing connectors that
are essential for the ASI-310's operation.
3. Select the Invalid Video (ASI) box to report when the ASI input is connected but is not
recognized as ASI.
4. Select the OSD Enabled box to report when the ASI/OSD output has been switched to
OSD mode, which is a serious error if you are using the ASI signal in downstream
equipment. If you are not using the ASI output, this is not an error condition and you can
disable this alarm.
5. Select the No Video (ASI) box to report when the ASI input signal is not connected.
6. Select the No Video (310) box to report that the 310 input signal is not connected or its
data rate is incorrect.
7. Select the Overflow (ASI) box to report when the ASI input data rate, minus any nulls,
is higher than the 310 Output rate. Consequently, data is being lost from the Transport
Stream.
8. Select the Unknown Rear Module box to report when the ASI-310 does not recognize
this rear module and thus may not work properly. This and the Unsupported Rear
Module alarm should only occur when a card is first plugged in i.e. before it is put into
service.
9. If you do not plan to use the 310-to-ASI converter or the Lock to 310 Input setting of the
310 Output Clock, you should clear the No Video (310) box, so that the absence of this
input does not cause the card status indicator to be red.
10. If you do not use the ASI-to-310 converter, you should clear the Invalid Video (ASI),
No Video (ASI) and Overflow (ASI) boxes.
