Configuration
Connections
HTTP Connection
This connector uses an HTTP connection and requires the following input during element creation:
HTTP CONNECTION:
- IP address/host: The polling IP or URL of the destination.
- IP port: The IP port of the destination.
SOCKET.IO NOTIFICATION CONNECTION (in QAction):
- IP address/host: The connector will extract this from the configured HTTP connection.
- IP port: The connector is hard-coded to use 8896 when the HTTP connection uses HTTPS; if the connection uses HTTP, port 8889 is used.
Initialization
Additional configuration is necessary for a newly created Haivision Manager element. Specifically, an API key must be configured to enable communication with the Haivision data source. This key allows the connector to authenticate requests and access the required information from the Haivision system. Ensure the API key is obtained from your Haivision platform and entered in the appropriate parameter field on the General page of the element.
How to Use
The connector displays Haivision Manager data. API calls are used to retrieve the device information.
On the General page of this connector, you can configure the API key to enable communication with the device.
Via the right-click menu of the SDI, NDI, and IP Outputs tables on the Outputs page, you can manage the live stream from a connected field unit, using the Play Stream and Stop Stream options.
