Laser Safety - Fiber Output SFP and QSFP Modules Warning
LASER SAFETY
IQUCP25/50 User Manual
The average optical output power does not exceed 0 dBm (1mW) under normal operating conditions. Unused optical outputs should be covered to prevent direct exposure to the laser beam. Even though the power of these lasers is low, the beam should be treated with caution and common sense because it is intense and concentrated. Laser radiation can cause irreversible and permanent damage of eyesight. Please read the following guidelines carefully:
· Make sure that a fiber is connected to the board's fiber outputs before power is applied. If a fiber cable (e.g. patchcord) is already connected to an output, make sure that the cable's other end is connected, too, before powering up the board.
· Do not look in the end of a fiber to see if light is coming out. The laser wavelengths being used are totally invisible to the human eye and can cause permanent damage. Always use optical instrumentation, such as an optical power meter, to verify light output.

Installing SDC License Files
License Files
SDC functionality options are installed by purchasing and loading an appropriate license from Grass Valley. These are provided as small zip files; the license key within the file is tied to the serial number of the particular IQUCP25/50 module for which it has been purchased. Some licenses also use a password. Licenses must be installed to RollCall and then loaded onto the module, which activates the new SDC functionality.
Installing the License to RollCall
For general information on importing and installing license files, see the Grass Valley RollCall Control Panel User Manual or RollMechanic Operator's Manual.
1 Copy the license zip file to a convenient place, such as the Windows Desktop. 2 Start RollCall, open the Edit menu, and click Licenses. The License Viewer is displayed:
RollCall License Viewer Note: If the UCP Licenses tab is not visible, RollCall will need to be updated. Contact Grass Valley for assistance.
25
Introduction Installing SDC License Files
3 Open the UCP Licenses tab, and click Import Licenses; a Windows Browse dialog is displayed.
4 Browse to the zip file's location, select the file, and click OK. The license is imported into RollCall, and the license details are displayed on the License Viewer. Close RollCall. The license is now available to load onto the module.
Loading an SDC
1 Start RollCall, and open the Configuration page. Scroll down so that the Card Firmware, Software Version and Installed 25(50)G Licensed Options panes can be seen:
· The Card Firmware pane displays the firmware option currently loaded. Any further firmware offering more options is displayed on the New pane. See Configuration on page 42 for more information.
· The Software Version pane displays details of the currently loaded SDC license. Alternative SDCs available for loading are displayed on the New pane.
· The Installed 25(50)G Licensed Options pane shows all licenses installed. 2 Select the required SDC from the Software Version > New pane, and:
· if the same I/O configuration is to be used, click Restart. The module will reboot, and start with the new SDC functionality.
26
IQUCP25/50 User Manual · if a different I/O configuration is to be used, enable the Reset to Defaults on Restart checkbox. This will cause any existing details stored on the module, other than network IP settings, to be cleared down, then restart the module. See Defaults on page 117 for more information.
IMPORTANT! Existing details must be cleared down before establishing a new configuration. Failure to do this may result in unexpected behavior from the module. The module is now ready to use.

Understanding IQUCP25/50 Configuration
The IQUCP25/50 supports a variety of configurations, so as to offer the greatest flexibility in terms of the types and number of SDI signals that can be processed. These configurations can be broadly grouped into five types of use case, as detailed below.
Use Case Use Case 1
SDI format
1 x SD/HD/3G
IP Format 1 x ST2110 1 x ST2022
Description
In this use case there is a direct 1-1 mapping between a BNC and a spigot page. This use case supports SD/HD/3G SDI formats.
Use Case 2
4 x SD/HD/3G
4 x ST2110 4 x ST2022
This is an extension of use case 1, but takes into account that spigots can be grouped together in blocks of 4. This behavior is controlled via the Link page - see Link Control on page 77.
Use Case 3 Use Case 4
12G-SDI 12G-SDI
1 x ST2110
4 x ST2110 4 x ST2022
12G-SDI effectively carries 4 x 3G-SDI sub-images (links) over a 12G physical interface. When in this use case, Link 1 is considered to be the master, and Links 2, 3 and 4 are considered to be slaves. Where appropriate, the slave components follow the master.
In this use case there is one single ST2110-20 flow.
In this use case a 12G-SDI signal and its sub-images are used to create 4 unique flows, one for each sub-image. The master/slave behavior is still adopted, with Link 1 being the master.
43
Essence Processing SDC Configuration
Use Case Use Case 5
SDI format
4 x SD/HD/3G
IP Format 1 x ST2110
Description
In this use case, a UHD signal is represented by 4 x 3G-SDI (ST425-5), and results in a single ST2110-20 flow. As before, the master/slave behavior is still adopted, with Link 1 being the master.
From a deployment perspective, it is recommended that 8/8 builds are favored for 1080p59. Whilst the IP core does not impose any limitations on the end user as to which signals are sent/received from which spigot, there are three important limitations that otherwise need to be taken into account when deploying a system:
1 The user is required to ensure that the bandwidth of the media interface is not exceeded. For example, if the 0/16 configuration of a IQUCP25 was used with 16 unique 1080p50 ST2110-20 ST2022-7 streams, this would clearly exceed the 25GbE data rate of the media interface, and so would subsequently fail.
2 PLUS, if the card is in Make-Before-Break mode, then for every simultaneous change the stream count is 2, not 1, for duration of the change.
3 PLUS, there is an IP Receiver hardware limitation on the IQUCP25 and IQUCP50 as to the number of streams that can be processed concurrently. This is captured in the table below.
IP Format ST2110-20 ST2110-20 ST2022-6 ST2110-20 ST2110-20
Video Format 1080p50 1080p59 1080p59 2160p50 2160p59
Max # Streams 16 14 12 4 4

Firmware Naming Convention
Product firmware file names, such as found in the Card Firmware>New pane (see Setting Spigot Configuration on page 51), adopt the following naming convention:
I/O FEC
SDI Format
0/16 RS = RS-
0/4 FEC
4/12
FC = FCFEC
8/8
8/0
12/4
16/0
SD-3G = SD/HD/3G
SD-UHD = SD/HD/3G/12G
SDI Interface Number of IP Interfaces
1xSDI = 1 BNC
1x211020/30/40
4xSDI = 4 BNC
1x2022-6 1xVC2
4x211020/30/40
Options
+FS = Input Frame Sync
The above applies if not specified in both directions. Otherwise:
(RX) = IP Receive side only
(TX) = IP Transmit side only
The different elements making up the file name are separated by spaces, except for FEC and SDI Format values, which are separated by a colon and a space. The SD Interface and Number of IP Interfaces values are enclosed by brackets and separated by a comma and a space. If required, RX/TX values are also enclosed by brackets, and inserted after the Number of IP Interfaces values. For example:
12/4 FC: SD-3G (1xSDI, 1x2022-6(RX), 1x2110-20/30/40)

PTP - An Overview
PTP provides a mechanism for distributing a common reference clock throughout the system. Each device maintains an internal clock that is synchronized to this common reference clock. RTP timestamps within the RTP packet header (and extended header) are used for synchronization.
Synchronization across multiple essence streams is achieved by comparing the offset between the RTP timestamp and clock.

Time Sync Configuration page The following facilities are available from this page:
Option Time Sync Mode
Description
Click a radio button to select the required mode. PTP options require a grandmaster clock to be present in the system. Note: Mixing modes within a system is not advisable. For example, PTP uses atomic time (TAI), whereas NTP is UTC, which is leap-second corrected. So, the two systems will not give identical results. Options are:
· PTP Multicast - this uses multicast for both sync and follow-up messages.
· PTP Unicast - this uses multicast for the sync messages and unicast for the follow-up messages.
· NTP - uses NTP for local clock correction. NTP can usually maintain time to an accuracy of around 1-10ms, but this value could rise to something on the order of >100ms, depending on network congestion, asymmetry, etc. This potentially means that 1-5 frames of misalignment of the local device clocks may be seen across the network.
· Freerun - the local device clock is left to free run, that is it is not corrected with respect to the world clock. This will drift over time.
Select as required.

Description
The IQUCP25/50 supports PTPv2 only.
If a PTPv1 message is received, it is discarded, and this counter incremented. This would be an indication that the grandmaster clock is not configured correctly.
If the product receives messages on the PTP multicast address port 319 or 320 that are not messages defined as PTP ones this counter is incremented.
PTP messages with an invalid length cause this counter to increment.
Increments on the reception of a follow_up message but the sync message is indicating 1 step.
Increments for every PTP message where the sequence number is as expected but its timestamp is not valid.
Increments for every delay_resp message where its sequence number is as expected but its timestamp is not valid.
This is the average network delay time from the grandmaster to the UCP. This should be stable and in the order of 10-20s.
The average error is the difference between the grandmaster and the UCP local clock. If locked, this number will be small.
From IEEE1588 7.7.2.1: "For each of the message types Announce, Sync, Delay_Req and Pdelay_Req, the mean time interval between successive messages shall be represented as the logarithm to the base 2 of this time interval measured in seconds on the local clock of the device sending the message. The values of these logarithmic attributes shall be selected from integers in the range ?128 to 127 subject to further limits established in an applicable PTP profile. The interpretation of the logMessageInterval depends on the message type; see 13.3.2.11. Except for Delay_Req messages (see 9.5.11.2), a node shall, with 90% confidence, issue messages with intervals within ±30% of the stated value of this attribute."
Return actual minimum interval between delay request messages. This is as set in the PTP Delay Request Frequency control. See Configuration on page 42.
Values are, {256/s, 128/s, 64/s, 32/s, 16/s, 8/s, 4/s, 2/s, 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s}.

Increments if none of the following are received within any 2second period:
· follow_up
· delay_resp
· sync
· announce
If the IQUCP25/50 receives a time earlier than the last, this counter is incremented. This could be because of a fault with the grandmaster, or because there are multiple grandmasters in the system.
This increments if the local clock offset is >300ns, <-300ns.
This increments if the network delay is >120%, or <80% of the previous value.
Uses the correctionField in the header of delay_resp message from the grandmaster.
From IEEE1588 13.3.2.7: "The correctionField is the value of the correction measured in nanoseconds and multiplied by 65536. For example, 2.5 ns is represented as 0x28000.
Increments if the correctionField is > 40000 (0.61ns).
Increments for every follow_up message that is out of sequence.
Increments for every follow_up message that is not from the expected clock.
Increments for every delay_response message that is out of sequence.
See Histogram, below.
Histogram
The Histogram provides a graphical representation of the distribution of differences between the module's clock and the PTP grandmaster clock. Every time the clock difference is recalculated, the relevant bar is incremented. A correctly functioning system will show a distinct peak around the 0ns level.

The receiver packet buffer provides additional buffering for a received IP flow. Typically this is required where the IP flow is bursty in nature. However, increasing buffering can affect the time required to switch between IP flows at a spigot, owing to increased switching latency. Adjust as required.
Note: When UHD quad-link configurations are used, Slave spigots automatically use the same settings as their associated Master.

Architecture
The IQUCP25/50-MV module comprises a MV SDC multiviewer block running on an IQUCP25/50 `base module' (see Figure 6-3) and it has the following functional inputs and outputs:
· 12 channels of video input (video IP streams, IP Rx); and · 4 channels of video output (video IP streams, IP Tx) + 4 SDI video HD-BNC copy outputs.
Fig. 6-3: IQUCP25/50-MV Module Functional Block Diagram
Multiviewer Input Scaling
The multiviewer block has 12 video inputs and four head display outputs. There are 12 image scaling blocks within the multiviewer, one scaler per input. The internal multiviewer architecture means that:
· Only one scaling per input. · An input can only appear once on any head display output.
IP Streams In and Out
Video IP streams are transmitted from or received at `spigots' and may be sent/received on redundant networks. Destination spigots receive IP streams (IP Rx) and source spigots send IP Streams (IP Tx). The IQUCP25/50 `base module' can accommodate various software-defined cores and has 16 generic video channels comprising one IP spigot per channel (IP Rx, or IP Tx) and one internal SDI video connection per channel (output SDI, or input SDI respectively). For the IQUCP25/50-MV module, the base module input/output configuration is:
· 12 destination spigots (IP Rx, converting video IP streams to SDI for MV SDC); · 4 source spigots (IP Tx, converting SDI from MV SDC into video IP streams); and · 4 channels of SDI HD-BNC output. See Figure 6-4.

Configuration and Control
An IQUCP25/50-MV module comprises two functional blocks for configuration and control. These control blocks can be accessed through certain IQUCP25/50-MV module communication interfaces (see Figure 6-6). RollCall templates are accessed via different IP port numbers at the same IP address and have separate RollCall templates (see Table 6-6).
Separate RollCall templates
Fig. 6-6: IQUCP-MV Control Blocks
Note: On an IQUCP50 using a single QSFP connector for 2 x 50Gbit input, Ethernet inputs 1 and 2 may arrive on the same QSFP. To avoid this, it is recommended that a rear with 2 x physically separate single-input QSFP connectors is used instead.

Multiviewer SDC Configuration and Control
The operational control interface for the IQUCP25/50-MV multiviewer is `in-band', i.e. via the media network.
Note: The MV SDC is only operationally accessible via the media network interfaces.
IMPORTANT The operational control interface for IQUCP25/50-MV is via the media network (in-band). The interface is used:
· for setting up the multiviewer; · for selecting different multiviewer video wall layouts; and · by the Grass Valley Orbit Client tool to:
· setup IP routing to/from the module; and · push/pull multiviewer video wall designs to/from the module.
Getting Started and Configuration
Initial configuration of a module is done via the IQ gateway network connection and remaining configuration via a media network connection; this includes configuring each IP spigot with multicast settings - typically done using the Grass Valley Orbit Client tool with its IP Routing license option.
a) Initial configuration for "Getting Going" Fig. 6-7: IQUCP25/50 Getting Start and Configuration
b) Further configuration
Operation and Configuration
Module operation uses the media network connections for multiviewer inputs (video IP streams), multiviewer head display outputs (video IP streams), pushing/pulling multiviewer video wall designs, changing over layouts, and module control/status messages etc.

Reference Timing
The IQ Modular frame's analog video reference inputs can be used to lock the IQUCP25/50MV's display outputs and use as the reference for the video inputs. PTP can also be used as the reference source for the Video IP inputs.
Video Wall Design
The layout and style of the MV SDC multiviewer video walls are designed with the Grass Valley Orbit software application. Wall designs are stored as individual projects (Grass Valley Orbit projects), which are then pushed to an IQUCP25/50-MV device for use. Multiple wall layout designs may be generated and stored on a PC. Different wall designs can then be pushed to (or pulled from) the multiviewer for different IQUCP25/50-MV monitoring applications. This is done over a media network connection. Orbit multiviewer projects for an IQUCP25/50-MV device should have a `IQ Multiviewer project' project type. See Figure 6-9.

IQUCP25/50 MV SDC Chapter User Manual
Introduction
The Grass Valley Orbit tool is used to define the appearance of the multiviewer video wall deployed on a IQUCP25/50-MV with an Orbit multiviewer project. The Orbit tool (with an IP routing license) may also be used to configure the IP input and output spigots of the module in a media network, using an Orbit IP routing project.
Orbit Projects
All layout information, settings and design information is stored in an Orbit project. Projects can be created from scratch, opened from PC storage or pulled from a device. A project may be viewed and edited in Orbit in `design mode'. When editing is complete, the project can be saved to the local PC storage and pushed to a device that Orbit is connected to.
Project Names
The project name is used as an identifier by Orbit. Project names should be meaningful, concise and unique. Use unique project names for each device (for example, for each multiviewer). When a project is opened in Orbit, the project name may be edited, if required. This forms a new, separate Orbit project.
Note: If a default project has been pulled from a multiviewer, re-name the project before pushing it back to the multiviewer.
CAUTION Local projects, projects on devices, or copies of projects that have the same project name are treated as being versions of the same project by Orbit.
Opening an Orbit Multiviewer Project
Orbit aims to keep a project up to date. If there are any differences between a project open in Orbit and the same-named project on a connected device, then the user is required to resolve a difference by choosing between projects before proceeding to edit the project. When opening a project, Orbit follows a sequence of actions:
1 Orbit attempts to connect to the specified device (For example, to a multiviewer). 2 Orbit checks for a project with the same name. 3 Orbit checks for any differences between a local project and the device's project. 4 Orbit warns the user if a local project and a project on a connected device differ. 5 Orbit prompts the user to decide which copy of the project is to be edited.

Make before Break - causes the destination spigot to buffer new IP stream data packets before connection to current IP stream is broken; this results in a smoother transition onscreen, but requires more bandwidth.
Break before Make - simply swaps IP data stream received at the destination spigot without buffering.
Take (Destination Spigot)
Click the Take button to apply any changes made to spigot or flow properties in the Spigot panel.
Fig. 6-43: Take
Status and IP Flow Panels (Destination Spigot)
The IP Flow panels are arranged into two columns: Primary flows and Secondary flows. (Primary IP flows pass through one network connection to the IQUCP25/50-MV module, secondary through the other.) Additionally, for each primary and secondary network connection, there is a summary Status panel (see Figure 6-44). Each network connection can carry more than one flow. For spigots 5 to 16, there is: one video flow, one audio flow, and one metadata IP flow. Each flow has an IP Flow panel.

Status Panel
IQUCP25/50 MV SDC Chapter User Manual
Fig. 6-44: Status Panel Example
The Status panel reports status information for each enabled flow. · Mac - IP flow received over IP network. · Loopback - IP flow received by the module looped-back from the module. Not useful in IQUCP25/50-MV applications - it is a feature of the IQUCP25/50 base module. (Such loop-back could be achieved by either explicitly setting the IQUCP25/50-MV module to receive a flow from itself, or by using the module's loop-back router facility.)
IP Flow Panel
The IP Flow panel allows multicast IP flow and IP port details to be defined for the selected spigot. Figure 6-45 shows an example IP Flow panel. In a Grass Valley IP routing system, some of these settings are set up by Orbit. This is indicated in Table 6-27.

REFERENCE_N_STATE
Valid values are: · OK: Locked · OK: Input · WARN: Freerun · WARN: CrossLock
TIMESYNC_N_MODE
Valid values are:
· Free running: Card is using its own clock with no reference to any other source.
· PTP Multicast: Card is synchronizing to a PTP grandmaster clock using multicast network messages.
· PTP Unicast: As PTP Multicast but using the delay request. Reply messages are unicast to minimize network traffic.
· NTP: Module clock is synchronized to an NTP clock. Generally less precise than PTP.
TIMESYNC_N_NETWORK
Network port currently being used for synchronization for IQUCP-MV modules, dependent on the choice of interfaces made on the Time Configuration template. If PTP and multiple interfaces are enabled, the PTP synchronization will switch ports if it doesn't see regular sync messages on the port.
TIMESYNC_N_CLOCK_ID
Identification number of PTP clock being used for synchronization. This is not necessarily the grandmaster clock identity, as there can be intermediate clocks between the grandmaster and the card, depending on network configuration.
TIMESYNC_N_CLOCK_STATE
Valid values are:
· Free running: Card is not being synchronized.
· No Lock: PTP being used but clocks haven't synchronized within +/- 1mS.
· Locked: PTP being used and clocks are within the accepted range.
· NTP: Module using NTP to synchronize.

TIMESYNC_N_STDV_ERROR The standard deviation in the average error.
TIMESYNC_N_ GRANDMASTER
Identity of network clock acting as PTP grandmaster. This is the source of the PTP synchronization messages used by all PTP slave clocks on the network. If there are multiple grandmasters, they should negotiate between themselves to identify the most accurate and then silence the others.
TIMESYNC_N_LAST_LOCK
Time when the module last changed from not locked to locked. Ideally this will be a few seconds after the module has powered up. This allows the user to confirm which clock the module has synchronized to.
TIMESYNC_N_ SYNCHRONISATIONS
Reports the number of times the card has synchronized since it was powered up. Ideally this will be a low number, as cards are expected to synchronize and stay synchronized. Large numbers indicate possible problems with the network or grandmaster clock.
TIMESYNC_N_STATE
Reports OK if interface N is communicating with the PTP clock. Where N is 1 or 2.
TIMESYNC_N_CLOCK_ADDRESS Reports the IP address of the PTP clock being followed by the card on interface N.
Note: Depending on the network configuration, this is not necessarily the same as the IP address of the grandmaster PTP clock.
TIMESYNC_N_REQUEST_INTER Reports the time between the delay request messages
VAL

Introduction
RollCall templates for the MV SDC described here are accessed via IP port 2051; they are not accessible from the Gateway card. The templates are used to configure and control the IQUCP25/50-MV module's MV SDC multiviewer. Configuration/control is done using Grass Valley's RollCall Control Panel, part of the Grass Valley RollCall Suite. The MV SDC multiviewer configuration is typically performed once after IQUCP25/50-MV installation.
Note: Install the RollCall Control Panel software on your computer. See the RollCall Control Panel User Manual ("RollCall V4 Suite & RollCall Lite" Introduction manual) and contact Grass Valley Support for information.
RollCall Control Panel may be used to configure and control various IQUCP25/50-MV multiviewer items, including:
· selection of video wall layouts; · monitoring alarm status; · acknowledging alarms; and · control of timer widgets on the video wall.

Introduction
This "Getting Going" section describes a quick set up procedure to carry out basic setting up of the IQUCP25/50 module and basic exercising of the IQUCP25/50-MV module. The generic IQUCP25 Module from the factory must be licensed to carry out one of the software-defined core functions it is capable of. A new IQUCP25 Module contains all available software-defined cores, including the MV SDC, but no licenses are present. A new module defaults to the Essence Processing SDC functionality and will need to be licensed for the MV SDC.
Procedure
The procedure below will carry out some basic setting up of a IQUCP25/50 module to configure it be a IQUCP25/50-MV; this includes selecting the multiviewer core and setting up Ethernet interfaces. The procedure will then describe how to configure the IQUCP25/50MV for receiving and sending video IP streams and modifying the multiviewer video wall. The `Getting Going' procedure includes:
· STEP 1: Module Hardware Installation on page 232. · STEP 2: Configuring IQUCP25/50 to be an IQUCP25/50-MV on page 233. · STEP 3: IQUCP25/50-MV Physical Connections on page 233. · STEP 4: Booting Up on page 235. · STEP 5: Preliminary IQUCP25/50-MV Configuration on page 237. · STEP 6: IQUCP25/50-MV Media Interface(s) Setup (Video IP Streams) on page 242. · STEP 7: Make a Change to the Video Wall on page 244.
231
Multiviewer SDC STEP 1: Module Hardware Installation
Assumptions
It is assumed that: · The IQUCP25/50-MV module is new and from the factory. · There is a corresponding MV SDC license for the module. · The IQUCP25/50-MV module is to be fitted into a slot in an IQ frame. · A control network is available to perform some preliminary configuration via the IQ modular frame. · A media network is available to: · carry out remaining module configuration; and · source video IP streams for the module; and · receive multiviewer head display output video IP streams from the module.
STEP 1: Module Hardware Installation
Module installation into the IQ frame is described in the · Grass Valley `IQH4B High Power 4U Modular Enclosure Installation and User Manual'. (See the manual sub-sections on `Installing and Removing Modules' and `Slots'.)
When the IQUCP25/50 module is installed into the IQ frame, one of its control interfaces is accessible via the IQ Gateway connection: The module can be accessed by RollCall Control Panel and the IQUCP25/50 base module templates can be accessed. (Note: The IQUCP25/50 MV SDC multiviewer templates are not accessible at this stage.)
232
IQUCP25/50 MV SDC Chapter User Manual
STEP 2: Configuring IQUCP25/50 to be an IQUCP25/50-MV
The generic IQUCP25/50 module is supplied with software which contains each of the available software defined cores, unlicensed. By default, a new IQUCP25/50 module starts up with the Essence Processing core selected but unlicensed. First of all, the IQUCP25/50 module must be configured to be an IQUCP25/50-MV module by licensing it with a MV SDC license. This is done via the IQ Gateway interface and is described below:
STEP 2.1: Install MV SDC License onto a Module
The process for installing a license on a IQUCP25/50 module is similar to the process for a general IQ module. This is described in Installing a License onto a Module on page 232, and uses the IQ frame's IQ Gateway interface.
STEP 2.2: Selecting/Loading an MV SDC License
The process for selecting a license on a IQUCP25/50 module is similar to the process required for a general IQ module. This is described in Loading (Selecting) Software Version on a Module on page 232, and uses the IQ frame's IQ Gateway interface.
STEP 2.3: Restart
Restart the module. After the module has restarted, it will be a IQUCP25/50-MV and a media network connection is used for further configuration steps.
STEP 3: IQUCP25/50-MV Physical Connections
The sub-section includes the following connections for a IQUCP25/50-MV module: STEP 3.1: HD-BNC - Multiviewer Head Display Outputs on page 234 STEP 3.2: Control Connection on page 234 STEP 3.3: Media Connections - Multiviewer Inputs and Outputs on page 234
After the module has restarted with an MV SDC selected, it is a IQUCP25/50-MV and may be connected up as such.
Note: When the module restarts it becomes a IQUCP25/50-MV with the interfaces described in Interfaces on page 126.
The IQUCP25/50-MV interface connections to be made are described below.
233
Multiviewer SDC STEP 3: IQUCP25/50-MV Physical Connections
STEP 3.1: HD-BNC - Multiviewer Head Display Outputs
To view the multiviewer head display outputs directly: · Connect the four rear HD-BNCs to SDI video monitors. (For HD-BNC rear connector numbers, see Table 6-5 on page 130 and Figure 6-5 on page 130.)
Other connections to the module are via media Ethernet interfaces and these interfaces are configured in the next sub-section before these connections can be realized.
STEP 3.2: Control Connection
The IQ Gateway interface accesses only the IQUCP25/50 base module RollCall templates. For all control connections to the IQUCP25/50-MV module, including to all the RollCall templates, use the media network interfaces. The two rear media network Ethernet interfaces (SFP-1 and 2) are the normal operational control connections (i.e. `in-band' control). These are used by Grass Valley Orbit and can access both the:
· IQUCP25/50 base module RollCall templates; and · MV SDC Multiviewer RollCall templates. See STEP 3.3: Media Connections - Multiviewer Inputs and Outputs on page 234, for media interface connection.
Note: The `card front' Ethernet interface is for Grass Valley engineering use only. It can access both the IQUCP25/50 base module and the MV SDC Multiviewer RollCall templates.
STEP 3.3: Media Connections - Multiviewer Inputs and Outputs
The video IP stream connections to/from the module are via the rear media Ethernet interfaces (SFP-1 and SFP-2). The IP stream settings for the all source and destination spigots that use the media interfaces is all done later in this `Getting Going' procedure (see STEP 6: IQUCP25/50-MV Media Interface(s) Setup (Video IP Streams) on page 242). Spigots:
· 5 to 16 will receive video IP streams from the media network; and · 1 to 4 will source video IP streams - the multiviewer head display outputs. This connection is also used for control and configuration.
234
IQUCP25/50 MV SDC Chapter User Manual
STEP 4: Booting Up
The IQUCP25/50-MV module boots up: · after power is applied; or · after fitting or re-seating the module in a powered-up IQ Modular frame; or · following a system reset. (A `System Reset' may be performed from a RollCall template - for example, via RollCall Control Panel.)
Booting takes about 75 seconds to complete. Note: Module outputs are interrupted during booting, After booting is complete at this stage:
· All the card edge LEDs show module status. (See Card-Edge LEDs on page 35.) · A multiviewer video wall is shown on the head display outputs.
(For a new module, a default video wall is shown, see Default IQUCP25/50-MV Video Wall on page 235.)
Default IQUCP25/50-MV Video Wall
The MV SDC is shipped with a default Orbit multiviewer project. Its video wall layout displays all multiviewer video inputs. This is shown in Figure 6-71.
Multiviewer video inputs 1 to 12 are shown
Fig. 6-71: Default Project - Head Display Outputs 1 to 4 (Output 1 shown) The layout is repeated across the four head display outputs ("Output 1", "Output 2", "Output 3", Output 4") with the same wall layout.
235
Multiviewer SDC Default IQUCP25/50-MV Video Wall
CAUTION
Re-sizing a video input on one output will re-size it on the other outputs also, as each video input only undergoes one scaling. This does not affect the tile layout since only the content is scaled - the layout is unaffected, so any graphics overlay will not change.

Basic Video Wall on page 255 TSL Support on page 256
IQUCP25/50 MV SDC Chapter User Manual
Multiviewer video wall layouts are designed and managed with the Grass Valley Orbit application. Please refer to the published Orbit documentation for instruction about how to use Orbit in multiviewer applications. This manual assumes the reader is familiar with the Orbit software and only outline information is given.
Basic Video Wall
Multiviewer video wall layouts are designed with the Grass Valley Orbit application and are called `Orbit projects'. These multiviewer projects can be pushed to a multiviewer, such as an IQUCP25/50-MV, to be deployed and the video wall can be viewed on monitor displays directly via the HD-BNC outputs of the IQUCP25/50-MV, or across a media network using the video IP stream outputs.
Video wall layouts can be pulled from an IQUCP25/50-MV multiviewer and modified and pushed back.
The form and appearance of a video wall design on a multiviewer device may be changed through the use of Orbit `walls', `layouts' and `themes'.
Procedure:
The procedure for video wall design and deployment is similar to the procedure for Grass Valley's MV-8 Series of multiviewers (MV-800 etc).
A `basic video wall' is described in the Orbit documentation and includes:
·Initial Screen

Multiviewer SDC TSL Support
TSL Support
TSL Protocol Tally Settings
TSL protocols are used widely throughout the industry for communication between a TSL Tally controller and Under Monitor Displays (UMDs). The protocol enables tally lamp control and text label data to be carried to each UMD device. A TSL Tally controller handles the tally data in a video system and provides TSL Tally control information to each UMD. The IQUCP25 Module supports two TSL protocols: TSL 3.1 and TSL 5.0. Initial TSL support settings are described here. Setting up the multiviewer to work with a TSL tally-based system involves the following steps:
· Specify how the multiviewer gets the TSL Tally message information. See Specifying Multiviewer TSL Tally Mode on page 256.
· Specify index parameters for each UMD on the video wall. See Specifying Index Parameters for each UMD on page 257.
Specifying Multiviewer TSL Tally Mode
The multiviewer may get its TSL Tally information in one of two modes: · Server Mode - IQUCP25/50-MV listens for Tally messages. Specify the IQUCP25/50-MV IP address and network port to receive Tally messages on. · Client Mode - IQUCP25/50-MV reads Tally messages from a Tally controller. Specify the IP address and network port number of the Tally controller.

IQUCP25/50 MV SDC Chapter User Manual The Grass Valley RollCall Control Panel application is used to configure the settings for an IQUCP25/50-MV multiviewer in the RollCall TSL screen; see RollCall TSL Template on page 226.
Specifying Index Parameters for each UMD
Use the Grass Valley Orbit application to set the properties of each UMD in a video tile on the video wall layout. The properties differ between TSL Protocol 3.1 and 5.0. The style of the UMD widget can be selected with the Preferences > UMD Style property. The index parameters used by each UMD are specifiable in the UMD properties. Values can be set manually or values can be automatically assigned as part of assigning inputs to video tiles. (Refer to Orbit documentation.) UMD Properties - TSL Protocol Version 3.1 TSL Protocol 3.1 is the original TSL protocol for sending data over a serial comms connection or via Ethernet. The multiviewer supports an Ethernet connection. Each multiviewer monitor screen is addressed with a Display address. Each UMD associated with a video tile must have its 3.1 Display Address property set up.

UMD Properties - TSL Protocol Version 5.0 TSL Protocol 5.0 is a 16-bit protocol, introduced to handle multiviewer display devices over Ethernet. It supports ASCII or Unicode character sets, and data is sent as UDP or TCP/IP over Ethernet. Each multiviewer monitor screen is addressed by a Screen Index and each UMD within it by a Display Index. Each UMD associated with a video tile must have two parameters set up:
· 5.0 Screen Index - Index number (address) of each display monitor. (16-bit, $FFFF reserved. 0 = not used.)
· 5.0 Display Index - Index number for each UMD in a display. (16-bit, $FFFF reserved. 0-based.)
