Image of the Mux Panel

Selecting a port node in the Component Tree causes the Multiplex panel to display on the right. This panel shows a list of multiplexes configured for the selected input or output GigE or ASI port. The view is split in two parts: the top part shows the list of multiplexes for a port and bottom part shows the programs and tables associated with the selected multiplex on the port.

Important: The input line and output line correspond to the same physical port, but they are displayed separately in the Component Tree to let you manage inputs and outputs separately.

The following describes the panels in this window:
