IntelligentSource™

7thSense IntelligentSource™ is a method of inserting data into the top line of source frames in order to detect frame sequence breaks and trigger same-frame failover to a backup stream. This can work across Juggler modules to provide either an automatic or manual loop option for source failover. Use of the 7thSense IntelligentSource API in conjunction with this allows both sync and video data monitoring.

IntelligentSource detection is seen in the selected video channel as an ‘IS’ icon:

The ‘IS’ icon will be grey until IntelligentSource is enabled. It is enabled, per required video channels for a Juggler, in the VideoChannel Properties panel for that channel of the Juggler:

Frame Count and Frame Time will be incrementing when all is well.

If using a stream with IntelligentSource data, check ‘Remove First Line’ to strip off the additional row of pixels used to convey the frame data.

The IS icon will be green when enabled and good IntelligentSource data is flowing, and red if enabled but no IntelligentSource data is being received. If IntelligentSource framecount/time data stops incrementing, the IS icon for the channel will be yellow.

In the event of signal failure, a double-banked Juggler system will switch instantly to the second system.

To implement IntelligentSource with Delta 2.7 software, document M450: IntelligentSource API is available from 7thSense.
