Status (I/O-22)
The I/O-22, in the Q-SYS Designer Inventory list, represents a physical piece of equipment.
The physical I/O-22 is an Input/Output device. Analog input sources can be connected to the I/O-22 and the analog audio is converted to digital audio and sent over the Q-LAN network to the Core for Processing. Likewise, digital audio can be sent from the Core over the Q-LAN network to the I/O-22 which converts the digital signal to analog for local use.
The I/O-22 in the Inventory list has several components under it that are placed in the Schematic for use in your system.
This Topic covers the Status component of the I/O-22.
Properties
I/O-22 Properties
Name
The Name may contain ASCII letters 'a' through 'z' (case-insensitive), the digits '0' through '9', and the hyphen. Names cannot begin or end with a hyphen. No other symbols, punctuation characters, or blank spaces are permitted.
Note: This name must match the Hostname for the device as defined in Core Manager or Peripheral Manager.
Location
User-defined name that groups the component with other components in the same physical location – for example, "Rack 1" – or in the same organizational scheme.
Is Required
When enabled, and the device is not found on the network, the device is reported as 'Missing', which is an error condition. This is the default behavior. When disabled, and the device is not found on the network, the device is reported as 'Not Present', which is not an error condition.
Dynamically Paired
Indicates that this virtual component can be paired with the same type of hardware without changing the network ID of the hardware or the name of this component. Refer to the Q-SYS Core Manager Dynamic Pairing topic for more information. The default is 'No'.
Verbose
Displays the Networking and Audio Stream details for LAN A (and LAN B, if applicable to the device). You must have Is Network Redundant set to Yes to see LAN B details.
The Verbose property is available only when you select the I/O-22 Component in the Schematic.
Graphic Properties
Label
Use the Label property to change the name of the component in the schematic. The Label property defaults to the component name. To learn more about renaming schematic elements, see Organizing Your Design.
Position
The coordinates reference a specific place in the schematic - for example,"100,100" (horizontal, vertical). 0,0 is the upper left corner of the schematic.
Fill
Sets the fill color of the component in the schematic.
Script Access Properties
Code Name
Displays the currently assign name for control access. You can use the auto-assigned name or customize it. Q-SYS will automatically check all Code Names in the design to ensure name is unique.
Script Access
Defines whether the component will be accessible by script and/or externally, or not at all. Choices include All, External, None (default), and Script.
- None (default) - Not accessible by any script, plugin, or by Q-SYS Remote Control Protocol (QRC).
- Script - Can be accessed by scripts, such as Text Controller, Block Controllers, and plugins only.
- External - Can only be accessed by 3rd party controls systems using component commands from the Q-SYS Remote Control Protocol (QRC).
- All - No restrictions, can be accessed by 3rd party control systems via Q-SYS Remote Control Protocol (QRC), or script objects or plugin objects.
Tip: Use Script Programmer Mode to quickly view the Script Access setting directly on the component in the design schematic without the need to disconnect from the Q-SYS Core processor.
Controls
I/O-22 Status
ID
When the ID/Identify button, in the Q-SYS Designer Status component, or the Configurator's Network Configuration for the hardware,or on the physical hardware is pressed, the ID buttons in the Configurator and Status component flash, and the LED on the physical Hardware flashes to indicate the association between the three.
The indicators will flash for 5 minutes unless you stop them by pressing any one of the buttons.
Status LED
This LED changes color to indicate the current status of the I/O-22. See Status for the meanings of the various colors.
Status
Component status is conveyed with the Status LED and Status box, which uses both color and text to indicate the current condition:
- OK: The device is functioning normally.
- Initializing: The device is in the process of a firmware or configuration update, or the design is starting.
- Compromised: The device is functioning, but a non-fatal problem exists. Refer to the Status box for details.
- Missing: The device cannot be discovered.
- Fault: The device is malfunctioning or is not properly configured. Refer to the Status box for details.
- Unknown: This status appears during a Core reboot (for example, during a firmware update), or when a design is being uploaded to the Core and before it has started running.
- Not Present: If applicable to the device, this status appears when the device is not connected to the network and its Is Required component property is set to 'No'. This status also appears if the device component's Dynamically Paired property is set to 'Yes', pairing has not been assigned in Core Manager, and the device component's Is Required property is set to 'Yes'. See Dynamic Pairing.
Clock Offset
This text field displays the clock difference between the associated I/O-22 and the Master Clock. The unit of measure is indicated in the text readout.
Grandmaster
The clock master of the network.
Parent Port
The device and interface name that this device is syncing to when it's not the clock master. Usually it is the same as the Grandmaster name.
Temperature
Text field indicating the current temperature inside the associated I/O-22, measured in Celsius. Typically about 60° C.
Details
You must select Verbose Yes in the Properties for this field to display.
Text indicating the Details of any errors occurring with the I/O-22. The information in this field is updated regularly and is cumulative. None of the items listed below display unless there is a value associated with it. If there are values associated with these, call Support.

Power
These four LEDs indicate which power source is being used for the I/O-22.
POE A
PoE A (LAN A) is supplied by a POE switch, or an injector.
Produces 2 - 3 W average power, 8-10 W peak power from the loudspeaker for ~ 10 seconds
POE B
PoE B (LAN B) is supplied by a POE switch, or an injector.
Produces 2 - 3 W average power, 8-10 W peak power from the loudspeaker for ~ 10 seconds
POE A Plus
PoE A Plus (LAN A) is supplied by a POE Plus switch, or an injector.
Produces 8-10 W Average output power from the loudspeaker.
POE B Plus
PoE B Plus (LAN B) is supplied by a POE Plus switch, or an injector.
Produces 8-10 W Average output power from the loudspeaker.
Aux Power
Aux Power is 24 VDC, 30 W, 1.25 A, supplied by an external power supply.
Produces 8-10 W Average output power from the loudspeaker.
Audio Streams
To see both input and output Audio Streams information, you must have cards installed in the slots giving both inputs and outputs. For example, a Line Input card gives you Input Audio Streams, a Line Out card gives you Output Audio Streams.
Input OK
LED indicating the status of the Input Audio Stream for LAN A or LAN B.
Input Details
Text indicating the details of the status of the I/O-22 Input Audio Stream. The information in this field is updated regularly and is displayed as running totals. An item is displayed only when the value is not zero.

In Input and Output Audio Streams, accept_count should be equivalent to the on_time packets. This value is expected to be non-zero.
The units are 16 samples, so accept_count should go up by 3000 per second.
too_late indicates clock sync problems. If Clock Offset is larger than a single digit, check the QoS configuration on the switches for the clock traffic (the highest priority DSCP). If too_late is not zero but the Clock Offset is zero or very small, check the QoS configuration on the switches for audio traffic (the second highest priority DSCP).
missing_count could mean network problems such as bad cables, check the CRC error counters for the switches.
Control Pins
The I/O-22 in the Inventory list has no Control Pins. The available Control Pins for the I/O-22 Status Component depend on settings in Properties.
