Probel SW-P-08/02 Configurable Models

Probel SW-P-08 and SW-P-02 are versatile routing protocols used by many router and video switcher manufacturers for 3rd party control of their devices. Since the protocol is used by so many manufacturers, we have made configurable models for each protocol to allow for size customization. 

 

As the configurable models are not able to be auto detected, it is necessary to add the devices manually. Select the configurable model for SW-P-02 or SW-P-08 depending on which of the protocols the device supports.

For both models, it is needed to specify the IP Address and protocol specific port used by the device. For SW-P-08, it is also necessary to specify the Matrix ID. If needing control of multiple Matrixes of SW-P-08, additional instances of the device should be added per MatrixID.

For both models, it is needed to specify the number of destinations and sources. For SW-P-08, it is also necessary to specify the number of levels.
