Configuration

Connections

HTTP Main connection

This connector uses an HTTP connection and requires the following input during element creation.

HTTP CONNECTION:

  • IP address/host: The pooling IP of the device, e.g., bcam.broadcast.bskyb.com.
  • IP port: The IP port of the device, e.g., 80.
  • Bus address: This should consist of a combination of the node/device name, the BUS value representing the channel, and the channel type (Standard, Entertainment or Sports). If the proxy server has to be bypassed, also specify BypassProxy. For example: ByPassProxy;NodeName/DeviceName;Bus;ChannelType

How to Use

This connector dynamically creates an HTTP address to obtain information through a JSON configuration. When you configure the element, make sure to specify the node/device in the bus address field as mentioned above, so that the connector creates the address for the specified device.

On the Device Status page, you can view alarms for VICC File Age, Status and Commercial Minutes. The page also shows the total minutes and frames during different time slots.
