Imagine Communications Selenio X100
The Imagine Communications Selenio X100 is a standalone frame synchronizer and converter unit. This connector provides complete monitoring and configuration for this device. Specifically, it contains information regarding audio, video, data and GPI processing.
About
This connector displays information on different pages, described in the Usage section of this document.
The versioning for the connector is specifically engineered to tie in with the firmware version of the card the connector supports. It uses the following format: X.X.X.Y, with X.X.X being the firmware version of the card and .Y the specific connector iteration for this firmware. For example, 5.0.28.2 means the connector is the second iteration for firmware 5.0.28.

Installation and configuration
Creation
SNMP main connection
This connector uses a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) connection and requires the following input during element creation:
SNMP CONNECTION:
- IP address/host: The polling IP of the device.
- Device address: Slot number where the card is plugged in. 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.
Timing
All data gets retrieved from the device in three ways.
Timers
- Slow Timer: Triggers every hour and retrieves non-essential and configurable parameters.
- Medium Timer: Triggers every 15 minutes and retrieves status parameters.
- Alarm Slow Timer: Triggers every 30 seconds and retrieves alarm information (see note below).
- Very Fast Timer: Triggers every 3 seconds and retrieves dirty changes and alarm information (see note below).
Dirty Changes
- Every 3 seconds, a check is done for any changed configurable values. If such a change is detected, the new value is retrieved and instantly updated in the element. (If the change concerns a table cell, the complete table is refreshed.) After a change is detected, the check occurs faster and is performed every 0.5 seconds until no more changes are detected.
Traps
- When enabled and set up on the device (via Misc > SNMP), traps can be sent to DataMiner whenever an alarm occurs. The traps are accepted and processed.
Note
You can toggle alarm information to be retrieved either every 30 seconds or every 3 seconds. The default value is every 3 seconds. It is recommended to only change this to 30 seconds when you enable traps to be sent to DataMiner.
Usage
The connector contains different pages, divided into several sections using separators.
General section
This section consists of the following pages:
- General: Contains information such as a configurable Custom Name, the Version and the Serial Number.
- Alarming: Contains a table with the possible alarms the device can generate and its current state (Active priority 0 ->10 or Inactive). Alarm polling can be toggled to 30 seconds or 3 seconds.
- Status: Contains status parameters for Temperature, Power Supply and Fans, and a parameter value for the Main Board LEDs.
Video section
In this section, you can find monitoring and configuration values for the Video Input, Analog Input Control, Video Output and Routing, Analog Output Control, Video Reference and Processing Channel 1 and 2.
Audio section
In this section, you can find data concerning AAP 1-4 Configuration, AES IO Assignment, Input Control and Status, De-embedding, Embedding, Input Delay and Sync, Audio TSG, ProcAmp, Advanced Audio Processing, Output Routing and Delay and Audio Metadata.
Misc section
This section contains various data concerning the Serial, SNMP and Network Setup, as well as Versioning and Licensing, Green (Power save setup), SFP Status and Cal (AnalogAudio and VID).
Data section
This section contains Output, Input and Advanced Status and Control settings.
Control section
This section contains the GPI and Rules Engine.
