MVN-IP360 Indicators and Switches
The MVN-IP360 card can be installed in the 10-slot DFR-8310 frame, or in the 20-slot
DFR-8321 or OG3-FR frames. Prior to installing the card, first install the corresponding rear
panel I/O module. Note that the rear I/O panel for the DFR-8321 and OG3-FR frames is
different from the panel for the DFR-8310; if you have the wrong panel, please contact
ImmediaTV to have it replaced
1
.
Rear I/O Panel Indicators
There are two rear I/O panels available for the MVN-IP360 encoder, to support different analog
audio inputs:
Unbalanced Audio I/O Panel
Balanced Audio I/O Panel
All MVN-IP360 I/O panels have two software-configurable Composite/SDI video inputs on
standard BNC connectors and two 100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet ports on standard RJ-45 connectors.
There also two unused BNC ports. The unbalanced audio I/O panel includes four RCA
connectors, and the balanced audio I/O panel includes four terminal blocks. The panels are
depicted in the next page.
Each of the video inputs has a green indicator LED, with the following states:
LED off: no video signal detected, or input not configured.
LED flashing: video input locked to the video signal.
oLED flashing about once per second: input video is SD.
oLED flashing about twice per second: input video is HD-SDI.
oLED flashing about 4 times per second: input video is 3G-SDI (1080p60).
Each of the Gigabit Ethernet ports has two indicator LEDs, with the following states:
Green LED:
oOff: No link
oOn: Link
Yellow LED:
oOff: No activity (transmit and/or receive)
oFlashing: Port is currently transmitting and/or receiving

Note that the balanced audio rear I/O panel is only supported boards with hardware version 4 and
higher. The hardware version is available in the Product Tab in DashBoard.
Front Indicators
A similar set of indicators exist in the front of the board. These are visible when the frame front
door is opened. The indicator layout is depicted below.
The LED indicators are as follows:
Status LED: indicates the overall status of the board.
oGreen: no active alarm
oRed: at least one critical alarm present
When inserting a board in the frame, this LED will be red until the board starts operation.
At that point, it will turn green if there is no active alarm or stay red if there is at least one
alarm.
Power OK LED: indicates that the power received from the frame is OK.
oGreen: power OK

13
oOff: no power (or insufficient voltage –check the frame power status)
VID 1 and VID 2 LEDs: these behave exactly the same as the corresponding rear I/O
panel indicators.
ENC1 and ENC2 LEDs: these LEDs flash if the corresponding encoder is running, with
output available for routing to ASI, UDP or RTP. They will not flash if the encoder is
stopped (either by explicit configuration or by lack of input) or if it is in one of the Web
streaming modes (HTTP Live Streaming or Direct HTTP Streaming).
ETH1 and ETH2 LEDs: these indicate the status of the corresponding Ethernet
connection.
oOff: no link
oOn: link OK, no activity
oBlinking: link OK, port is transmitting and/or receiving packets

Top Corner
The MVN-IP360 board has other LEDs that may or may not be illuminated. They are intended
for engineering debug only.
Front Switches
The MVN-IP360 board has two pushbutton-type switches in the front, just below the LEDs, as
depicted below. Their operation is as follows:
Default IP Switch: This switch is used to recover the board in the unlikely case of a
corrupted or broken firmware update. In most cases, the MVN-IP360 will detect the

14
error and automatically fall back into the factory-default firmware load. If it does not,
pull the card out, press and hold this switch, and push the card back into the frame while
still holding the switch. You can release the switch once the Status LED turns orange.
This action causes the card to revert to the factory-default firmware.
Reset Switch: Pressing this pushbutton switch causes the card to reset.

ITV-IP360c Indicators and Switches
The ITV-IP360c can be used as a desktop encoder, or in a 19” rack-mount tray that holds up to
three units:
Back Panel
The ITV-IP360c ships with one of two possible back panels:
Unbalanced Audio Back Panel
Balanced Audio Back Panel
The panels are depicted in the next page.
Both panels include two software-configurable Composite/SDI video inputs on standard BNC
connectors, two streaming 100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet ports on standard RJ-45 connectors, and two
control 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet ports on standard RJ-45 connectors, in addition to the analog
audio connectors. In the unbalanced version, the analog audio connectors are standard RCA
jacks; in the balanced audio version, the analog audio connectors are terminal blocks.

Each of the video inputs has a green indicator LED, with the following states:
LED off: no video signal detected, or input not configured.
LED flashing: video input locked to the video signal.

The front panel LED indicators are as follows:
STAT: indicates the overall status of the unit.
oGreen: no active alarm
oRed: at least one critical alarm present
When powering up the unit, this LED will be red until the board starts operation. At that
point, it will turn green if there is no active alarm or stay red if there is at least one alarm.
PWR: indicates that the power is OK.
oGreen: power OK
oOff: no power or insufficient voltage
CH1/CH2 VID: these behave exactly the same as the corresponding back panel video
input indicators.
CH1/CH2 ENC: these LEDs flash if the corresponding encoder is running, with output
available for routing to ASI, UDP or RTP. They will not flash if the encoder is stopped
(either by explicit configuration or by lack of input) or if it is in one of the Web streaming
modes (HTTP Live Streaming or Direct HTTP Streaming).
CH1/CH2 ETH and CTL: these indicate the status of the corresponding Ethernet
connection.
oOff: no link
oOn: link OK, no activity
oBlinking: link OK, port is transmitting and/or receiving packets
Front Panel Default Switch
The front panel has a recessed switch that can be used to restore the unit to its defaults. Use a
pen or a small screwdriver to press this switch.

18
If the switch is pressed during normal operation, the control port IP address, mask and gateway
are restored to the following factory default settings:
IP Address: 192.168.1.30
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
The STAT front panel indicator will change colors for about 3 seconds to acknowledge the
change. Note that this operation does not disturb the encoding function or the streaming
Ethernet ports (i.e., it is not service-affecting). The IP addresses of the streaming ports may be
also automatically changed if they are in the same subnet as the control IP address above.
If you press and hold this switch when the unit is powered off, and then power up the unit while
holding the switch, the following actions will be performed:
The control IP address, mask and gateway are reset to the factory defaults as described
above.
The unit configuration is cleared.
The unit reverts to the factory-installed firmware.
As before, the STAT LED will temporarily change color to acknowledge the command. When it
changes color, you can release the switch. You can use this feature in the unlikely event of a
corrupted firmware upgrade or a corrupted configuration.

Ethernet ports on standard RJ-45 connectors, and two control 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet ports
on standard RJ-45 connectors, in addition to the analog audio connectors. In the unbalanced
version, the analog audio connectors are standard RCA jacks; in the balanced audio version, the
analog audio connectors are terminal blocks.
