Status (I/O-Core 110f)

Use Q-SYS Core Manager to switch a Q-SYS Core 110f to I/O-Core 110f mode. For more information, see Utilities in the Core Manager Help.

Note: After switching to I/O-Core 110f mode, use Q-SYS Configurator (within Q-SYS Designer Software) to discover and configure the device within the I/O Devices category. Selecting the I/O-Core 110f opens Peripheral Manager, which you can also use to change the mode back to Core 110f mode.

Properties

I/O Core 110f 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'.

GPIO

(Core 110 Series models only)

This property determines whether to expose GPIO In and GPIO Out components in the Inventory tree.

Disabled: GPIO components are not shown in the Inventory tree. Use this setting for Core 110v2, which does not include GPIO inputs and outputs.
Enabled: (default) GPIO components are shown in the Inventory tree. Use this setting for Core 110f v1 or Core 110c, as these models include GPIO inputs and outputs.
Optional: GPIO components are shown in the Inventory tree. However, reporting of Missing, Compromised, or Fault statuses related to the actual hardware presence of GPIO will not occur.

External USB Audio

When enabled, you can connect an external audio device to the USB input and route audio to and from that device. See External USB Audio Device In and External USB Audio Device Out.

Verbose

This property is only available when you select the I/O-510i Status component in your schematic. Select whether to expose Details (CPU statistics) and Audio Streams sections in the Status control panel.

Telephony Properties

Telephone Country

Select the country in which the telephone service resides.

Telephone Tone Output

When 'Yes' is selected, the Ring, Entry, Exit, and DTMF tones are fed to a separate output channel (Tone Output) on the POTS In component. These tones can now be routed independent of the voice audio.

Call Sync

Select whether to expose a Call Sync output pin for the POTS Controller component, which sends call states to the Call Sync component. The default is 'No'.

Network & Clocking Properties

Network Receive Buffer

Adds extra buffer time to the default maximum of 1 ms.

Additional Network Receive Buffer time is useful in (rare) cases where the network latency through the network exceeds the default maximum. Additional network latency my be introduced by sub-optimal QoS functionality, some layer-3 routing implementations, long distances or large networks.

Because the specified additional latency is added both to transfers from I/O devices to the Core and from the Core to I/O devices, the additional system latency is twice the amount of additional receive buffer selected. Total system latency based on this setting is calculated and displayed immediately below the Network Receive Buffer property.

Clock Source

Select Internal (default) or GPIO In Pin 1. The GPIO selection requires an external TTL level word clock or a GPS connection: pin 1 is signal, ground in is indicated by the ground symbol on either end of the connector. When you select GPIO In Pin 1 as the clock source, GPIO Pin 1 is no longer displayed. The clock source should be connected to pin 1 of the GPIO connector.

Clock Type

When the Clock Source is set to a GPIO pin, the Clock Type field is available: GPS (1PPS or 5PPS) or Word Clock.

Baud Rate

For 1PPS clocks, the default baud rate is 4800.
For 5PPS clocks, the default baud rate is 19200.

USB Bridging Properties

Refer to the USB Audio Bridge and USB Video Bridge topics.

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

ID

Click to display the ID indicator on the I/O-Core 110f front panel, as well as flash an indicator in Q-SYS Configurator next to the associated I/O-Core 110f . The front panel shows the ID indicator for 5 minutes unless you press the ID button again.

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.

Processor Temp.

The current temperature, in Celsius, of the I/O-Core 110f processor.

Chassis Temp.

The current temperature, in Celsius, of the I/O-Core 110f chassis.

Chassis Fan

Indicates the current RPMs of the I/O-Core 110f chassis fan.

Details

This section only appears when the Verbose property is set to 'Yes', and displays any error conditions. Contact Support if you see any errors reported here. Click Reset Details to clear the information.

Network

Clock Master

LED indicating if the Core is the Master Clock for the Q-SYS system or not. The Core can be the Master Clock even if the clock is synchronized to an external clock.

Grandmaster

Displays either the Q-SYS Core processor name or the PTP Clock GUID. Note that:

There can only be one Grandmaster for a Q-SYS design (for all LAN interfaces of the device). It is possible for Q-SYS to resolve to a PTP Grandmaster present on LAN B, if enabled and present.
If available, the Core Name is displayed instead of the raw PTP clock GUID. (The Core Name is not available in some clocking topologies – for example, when a higher priority boundary clock between systems is present or with some Software Dante configurations, as when the Core syncs indirectly to another device via Software Dante’s boundary clock.)
A PTP Clock GUID can look similar to a MAC address, but is not the same and may not be related to a device’s actual MAC address.
If the PTP Clock GUID is derived from a MAC address (whether a Q-SYS Core processor or third-party device), it can be any MAC address on that device (any LAN interface, including those without a network connection).

PTPv1 (Dante)

Used specifically for Dante audio networking integration within the Q-SYS ecosystem

Clock Offset

Indicates how much of an offset exists, in microseconds, between the device and the network Grandmaster.

Parent Port

The clock Parent Port is the device and interface name to which the device is syncing. Typically, this is the Grandmaster.

Link

When the LED is lit, it means the interface is "UP," signifying that the network connection is active and functioning properly. Conversely, when the LED is not illuminated, it indicates that the interface is "DOWN," suggesting that there may be issues with the network connection.

IP Address

Displays the IP Address the Core is connected to.

Mode

Determines how device operates within the network environment.

Auto: The network interface automatically negotiates it settings with the network infrastructure.

Static: The network interface's settings are manually configured by the user, including the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and other parameters.

Off: Disables the network interface, preventing it from sending or receiving network traffic.

PTPv2 State

Refers to the operational state or role of a network device or interface.

Passive: A device in the passive state is not actively transmitting or receiving data.

Slave: A device in the slave state is subordinate to another device, known as the master.

Master: A device in the master state holds authority or control over one or more slave devices in a network.

Uncalibrated: The uncalibrated state indicates a transition state between modes.

Speed

Refers to the data transfer rate supported by a network interface or connection. Speed indicates the transfer rate of megabits per second (Mbps).
