Pro-Bel SW-P-02
The Pro-Bel SW-P-02 protocol provides an interface to set or remove audio connections in the output routing of a controlled device from remote devices.
About
This protocol can be used to monitor and control any router that supports the Pro-Bel SW-P-02 protocol. A TCP/IP connection is used in order to successfully retrieve and configure the matrix. An SNMP connection is used for the PSU and FAN information of the device.
A matrix is used in order to easily connect a destination with a source.

Installation and configuration
Creation
Serial connection
This connector uses a serial connection and requires the following input during element creation:
SERIAL connection:
- Type of port: The type of port of the connection, by default TCP/IP.
- IP address/host: The polling IP of the device.
- IP port: The IP port of the connection device.
- Bus address: The "NumberOfInputs" and "NumberOfOutputs" of the matrix separated by a "." (range of inputs and outputs: 1-1024). For instance: "1024.1024".
SNMP 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.
- Port number: The port of the connection device, by default 161.
- Get community string: The community string needed to read from the device. The default value is public.
Usage
Matrix
This page contains the matrix, sized according to the Number of Inputs and Number of Outputs specified during configuration.
Device
This page contains the PSU and FAN fault tables of the device.
Configuration
This page contains the following parameters:
- Router Connection: Displays the status (Responding or Not Responding) of the router's connection.
- Matrix Configuration: Displays any detected misconfigurations. The status OK indicates that the matrix was successfully configured.
- Number of Inputs: Displays the selected number of inputs for the matrix.
- Number of Outputs: Displays the selected number of outputs for the matrix.
- Router Type: Displays the type of the router.
- Matrix Polling: Enables or disables the polling of the matrix information.
- Refresh CrossPoints: Manually refreshes the entire matrix.
- Device Polling: Enables or disables the polling of the PSU and FAN fault tables.
- Refresh PSU and FAN: Manually refreshes the PSU and FAN fault tables.
