Intelligent Dual Switchover for SD/HD/ASI Sources

Model: ACO6800+IDSD

Monitor Input 1 (primary) for loss of signal and failover to Input 2 (secondary)Single-channel module only
Switchback to primary happens when the primary signal has been restored for a predetermined period of time
Input relay bypass on the back module (to ensure signal path in the event of power loss to the frame)
Remote control and status via GPI/GPO
GPI control (Switch Input 1 online, Switch Input 2 online, Relay Bypass)

The ACO6800+ switchover module is designed for the 6800+™ core processing platform and provides both the primary and backup paths critical to maintaining uninterrupted video and audio signal flow. Multiple versions of the ACO6800+ are offered to suit the varied redundancy needs of broadcast and production facilities, OB trucks, satellite operators, cable headends, and mobile TV and IPTV operations. The ACO6800+ is available as a single- or dual-channel module that provides switchover capabilities from the primary to the backup path in the event of a signal failure. In addition to the basic switchover module, the ACO6800+ is also available as an intelligent Q-SEE™-compliant module that monitors video, audio and metadata at ingest, checks levels for consistency and scans for errors.

GPO status (Input 1 online, Input 2 online, Relay Bypass active)
GPI can be user-configured for momentary/latched and high/low operation
GPO status can be user-configured (high/low, momentary/latched) to indicate status
Configuration, control and status via CCS Navigator
Toggle switch on front of module to force switch between primary (up position) and secondary (down position) inputs
Apply Q-SEE alarm monitoring to each of two inputs (SD+8 AES embedded or HD+8 AES embedded). ACO is user-configured to operate in either SD or HD format. There is no automatic input format detection. Both inputs are actively monitored. By default, all alar
Generate a Q-SEE thumbnail for one of the two inputs
Online only — up to two frames per second with audio meter for one of eight embedded AES signals
Online and offline — up to one frame per second, each with audio meter for one of eight embedded AES signals (the same one for each thumbnail)
Thumbnails are generated as they are selected in the user interface
