Snell Wilcox IQUPC00
The Snell Wilcox IQUPC00 connector monitors and controls changes on the up-converter unit through a Rollcall smart-serial protocol. The card is used in the IQ Modular Chassis.
About
The connector periodically polls relevant information from the device. This happens every 15 seconds for Rollcall protocol purposes and every two hours for backchannel purposes.

Installation and configuration
Creation
Serial Main Connection
This connector uses a serial connection and requires the following input during element creation:
SERIAL CONNECTION:
Interface connection:
- IP address/host: The polling IP of the device.
- IP port: The IP port of the device, by default 2050.
- Bus address: The bus of the card on the chassis. The default, UU.PP (Hex), shows the expected structure of the address, where UU is the chassis ID, and the PP is the card position, both in Hex.

Video - Widescreen
This page contains the configuration for widescreen mapping. This includes settings for the Reader, Writer, general Read/Write Mapping and Line Blanking for several line combinations. It also contains Global Preset settings.
Delay - Genlock
This page contains the Delay, Dolby-E Auto Line and User Dolby-E Lines settings for the Genlock part of the system.
Ancillary Data
On this page, you can configure several auxiliary parts of the system, such as SMTPE 2016, the Ancillary Input States, ATC, and several SD VBI Lines.
Audio - Input Disembed
This page contains the audio configuration for the eight Disembed channels. It allows you to make changes to the ProcAmp, Mute, Stereo, Inverts and Dolby Lines.
Audio - Routing Input
On this page, you can check the available Input Names, check the eight Hide AES Inputs, and configure the eight Input Routing buses and the Routing Input Destination.
Audio - Routing Output Embed
This page contains the configuration for the Audio Output Routing, the Output Routing Options and the Audio Output Destination. It also displays the Output Routing Status.
Audio - Setup
This page allows you to configure the Audio Bus Delays on several levels, the Test Tones, the Audio Levels and the Remote RollTrack Sources.
It also displays the Total Pair Delay for each of the eight buses and allows you to configure the delays in a more Coarse or Fine way.
Audio - Mixer
This page allows you to select the mixer in use, configure the LoRo part of the mixer, and configure each of the six Mixer Sources, including the Source, ProcGain, Invert and Mute.
Audio - Output Embed
On this page, you can configure the Default ProcAmp, as well as the eight output Embed channels, including the ProcAmp, Mute, Stereo and Dolby Line.
You can also configure the Embed Groups, which join each of the followed outputs into a single unit. This means that there are four groups:
- Embed 1+2
- Embed 3+4
- Embed 5+6
- Embed 7+8
Loud Monitoring
On this page, you can view and configure the settings related to the loudness of the audio. This includes general loudness parameters, Block parameters, and the two Loudness Monitors and their five audio channels.
There are also subpages for Multi Band AGC, general Multi Band, AGC, Up Mixer, audio Master and the Parametric Equalizer.

This page displays the status of the Common parameters, Encoder parameters and Channel Assignment parameters.
It also provides access to subpages for the Programs, the Metadata, the Outputs, the Encoder, the Decoder, the Metadata Control and the Inputs.
Logging - Miscellaneous
This page contains the Miscellaneous Values for the card, which include states, versions and uptimes. The page also allows you to configure whether to log those values or not.
Logging - Video Input
This page contains the Video Input Values for both video inputs of the card, which include states, errors and identification. The page also allows you to configure whether to log those values or not.
You can also find the Reference Values for the card here, including states and identification. For these values too, you can configure the logging.
Logging - Video Output
This page contains the Video Output Values for both video outputs of the card, which include states, errors and identification. The page also allows you to configure whether to log those values or not.
Logging - Audio Embed
This page contains two Input Embed Values groups, one Input Embedded Values group, and a group for Output Embed Values, and contains state information for each of these groups. It also allows you to configure whether to log those values or not.
Logging - Audio Embed Dolby
This page contains the Audio Dolby Values and the Output Embed Dolby Values of the card, which include states, errors and identification. The page also allows you to configure whether to log those values or not.
Logging - Ancillary
This page contains two ANC Input Values and one ANC Output Value for the card, which refer to auxiliary data for each of those groups. The page also allows you to configure whether to log those values or not.
System - Memories
The page displays the configurable User Memory setting slots 1 to 16 of the device.
You can recall the settings from any of the previous slots with the Recall Memory option and check the last used memory setting slot in the Last User Memory.
To save a memory setting, first use the Select Memory parameter to either select one of the memory slots or select None, configure the name using the Change Memory Name parameter (which will be displayed for the corresponding Memory Name Values parameter), and select whether to Save or Clear the memory. Note that when you clear the memory, the configuration associated with it will be lost, and you will need to save it again later in order to re-create it.
