Imagine Communications Selenio J2K1 DEC

This connector can be used to monitor and control the decoder functionality of the Imagine Communications Selenio JPEG2000.

The Imagine Communications Selenio JPEG2000 is a multichannel encoder/decoder solution, offering real-time, high-quality JPEG2000 compression over IP.

About

There are 2 connectors that can be used to monitor and control the Imagine Communications Selenio JPEG2000 card.

This connector only supports the decoder functionality. The Imagine Communications Selenio J2K1 ENC connector can be used to monitor and control the encoder functionality of the card.

The connector has two different versions to support 2-channel and 4-channel decoders. Starting from version 3.0.0.1, DVEs can be created for the 4 decoder channels, whereas from version 4.0.0.1 onwards, DVEs can be created for 2 decoder channels.

Configuration

Connections

SNMP Main Connection

This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMPv2) connection and requires the following input during element creation:

SNMP CONNECTION:

  • IP address/host: The polling IP of the device.
  • Device address: Slot number that the card is plugged in at. Range 1-14.

SNMP Settings:

  • Port number: The port of the connected device, by default 161.
  • Get community string: The community string needed to read from the device. The default value is public.
  • Set community string: The community string needed to set to the device. The default value is public.

Usage

General

Contains general information about the card.

DVE

Available from version 3.0.0.1 onwards.

This page allows you to enable/disable DVE creation for each of the 2 or 4 decoder channels. You can also give a custom name to a DVE or hide it.

Alarming

Contains the Alarm Table, with all the possible alarms that the card can generate and their current state (Active priority 0->10 or Inactive).

Alarm polling can be toggled to 30 seconds or 3 seconds.

Module

Contains management information for the module.

Module Status

Displays status information for the module.

Decoder Control

Displays the management information for the SDI out source.

Decoder [1 - 4]/[1-2]

For each decoder channel (1 - 4)/(1-2), the same pages are available:

  • Decoder [x] Control: Contains settings related to decoder control functions.
  • Decoder [x] Video: Contains video information and settings.
  • Decoder [x] Audio: Contains audio information and settings.
  • Decoder [x] Data Services: Contains information and settings related to decoder field lines.
  • Decoder [x] TS Input: Contains information and settings related to the input transmission and status.
  • Decoder [x] TS Demux: Contains information and settings related to video and audio demux, stream, selector and status.
  • Decoder [x] Sync: Contains settings related to the vertical and horizontal phase of the frame sync and allows you to enable genlock.

IP LAN

Displays settings and information related to the data Ethernet interface.

IP LAN [A-D]

These pages display general information to manage the data Ethernet interface of LAN type A - D.

Audio Expansion Status

Displays general information about the audio expansion status.

Audio Expansion Sync Select

Displays general information about audio expansion sync select.

Audio Expansion Level

Displays general information about audio expansion input/output level.

Audio Expansion Expander 1 Routing

Displays general information about audio expansion 1 output source.

Audio Expansion Expander 2 Routing

Displays general information about audio expansion 2 output source.

Selenio Controller

Displays the module webpage. 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.

Notes

Timing

All data gets retrieved from the device in three ways.

  1. Timers:

    • Slow timer that triggers every hour and retrieves non-essential and configurable parameters.
    • Medium timer that triggers every 15 minutes and retrieves status parameters.
    • Alarm slow timer that triggers every 30 seconds and retrieves alarm information. By default, this is retrieved every 3 seconds instead. It is advisable not to change this to 30 seconds unless you enable traps to be sent to DataMiner.
    • Fast timer that triggers every 10 seconds and retrieves slot information (state, temperature, protection).
    • Very fast timer that triggers every 3 seconds and retrieves dirty changes and alarm information. Alarm information can be toggled to be retrieved every 3 seconds instead.
    • Regular timer that triggers every 300 seconds.
  2. Dirty changes

    • Every 3 seconds, the connector checks if any configurable values have changed. If it detects such a change, it instantly updates the displayed information with the new value. If the change is the cell of a table, the complete table is refreshed. After a change is detected, the check is boosted and performed every 0.5 seconds, until no more changes are detected.
  3. Traps

    • When enabled and set up on the chassis, traps can be sent to DataMiner whenever an alarm occurs.
