Network (NIC) Connections
All network connections are made at the rear panel of the VN-Matrix 300.
CAUTION: Do not proceed with connecting VN-Matrix 300 to an existing network until
it is correctly configured using the Low level configuration procedure.
Incorrect connection or configuration may cause disruption to other
network users.
Typically, the VN-Matrix 300 will connect to convenient network point on an existing in-
house network. Use the correct cable type for your chosen network.
Single Network Connection
The VN-Matrix 300 may be congured to run on a single physical network port (1 or 2). In
this configuration all data (image, ancillary and control including monitoring) is transported
over a single physical link.
The VN-Matrix 300 may be used over both switched (single segment) and routed
(multi-segment) networks.
Dual Network Connection
If required, both network connections may be used. In this configuration image and ancillary
data is transported on one connection whilst the other network port is used for monitoring
and or management functions.
System Control Data
System control is managed by the VN-Matrix 300 that has been designated as the controller.
Any changes made in the interface are sent to the affected VN-Matrix 300 device from the
controller. The control information between the controller and any other VN-Matrix 300 unit
in the system is sent via the network that has been assigned to the controller.
