Barnfind BTF1
The Barnfind BTF1 connector is an SNMP connector that is used in order to monitor an Input and Output Port Table with Matrix layout.
About
This connector displays an Input Port Table and Output Port Table. The link between the two is set in the Output Port Table as InputPortOutputPort. These two tables make it possible to generate a Matrix with the necessary crosspoints.

Creation
SNMP Main Connection
This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) connection and requires the following input during element creation:
- IP address/host: The polling IP of the device.
- Port: The port of the connected device, by default 161.
- Get community string: The community string used when reading values from the device. The default value is public.
- Set community string: The community string used when setting values on the device. The default value is private.
Usage
Matrix
This page displays the complete matrix with all the crosspoints. The crosspoints can be modified in the matrix.
The labels come from the Output Label and Input Label parameters in the Output Ports Table and Input Ports Table.
Inputs
This page displays the Input Ports Table, which lists all input ports with their names, labels and parameters. The Input Label can be edited as normal text and the other editable parameters can be changed from a list.
Outputs
This page displays the Output Ports Table, which lists all output ports with their names, labels, linked input port and parameters. The Output Label can be edited as normal text, the InputPortOutputPort is a list with all possible input ports, and the other editable parameters can be changed from a list.
General
This page displays the Model, Serial Number and all Diagnostics, such as the temperature, RPM and voltage.
In addition, there are page buttons linking to SFP Info, Hardware and Firmware:
- The SPF Info subpage displays all Common and Smart info on all available SFPs.
- The Hardware subpage displays every possible Hardware Type and all the Hardware Type Parameters. These are linked and are used to fill in the correct parameters in the Inputs and Outputs.
- On the Firmware subpage, you can check for firmware upgrades and view the relevant log. If an upgrade is available, you can do a Firmware Upgrade.
Automatic Change Over
This page displays a tree control containing the output table and the automatic change over table for each row. It allows you to configure all automatic change over parameters. This includes the enabling and disabling of each input interface.
Web Interface
This page displays the web interface of the device. Note that the client machine has to be able to access the device, as otherwise it will not be possible to open the web interface. In addition, the QBit Q561 web interface is not currently supported by Internet Explorer.
