New Integrations

Grass Valley NVision NP0016 Compatible Router

• Added Crosspoint control, partition discovery, and status monitoring over TCP, including dual controller support.

For more information, see: Grass Valley NVision NP0016 Compatible Router.

Added

Destination Locking

• Introduced locking of Destinations from the Control Panel and Hardware Panels. Locks appear on Ports, Port Containers, and Snapshots, and locking can be enabled or disabled per Preset.

• Locks apply to routing through hi and its connected Hardware Panels. They do not prevent another controller from changing the router directly. Operators can release their own locks; releasing another operator's lock requires the appropriate unlock permission.

For more information, see: Destination Locks.

MediorNet Redundant Connection

• Added support for a redundant Riedel MediorNet Ember+ connection.

• Routing and Parameter Control follow the active MediorNet frame after a changeover. Redundant connection addresses can also be added to Nodes restored from an existing Backup.

Port Containers in Triggers

• Added Port Container support to Crosspoint Triggers.

For more information, see: Rules.

Name From Device Search

• Added a Name from device search in the Node Port list.

For more information, see: Nodes.

Loudness Parameter Mapping

• Added the Loudness Parameter value mapping for the new Parameter type in mxGUI 10.0.2.6.

Changed

Lock Indicators

• Updated lock icons on Hardware Panels and the router panel, and added lock display on the Snapshot Connections tab and Node details pages.

For more information, see: Destination Locks.

Locks on Restore and Delete

• Changed Backup restore to ignore locks and device deletion to remove the locks created by Hardware Panels.

• After restoring a Backup, apply the required Destination locks again.

For more information, see: Destination Locks.
