Status (I/O-Core Nano)
A Q-SYS Core Nano is capable of operating simply as a peripheral I/O device. In this mode, you add the I/O-Core Nano from the Inventory, and then configure a separate Q-SYS Core processor to run your design. In Peripheral Mode, you can configure the same Serial Port and HID components as Core Mode.
Note: Loudspeaker Monitor and USB routing via the USB Input and USB Output components is not supported in Peripheral Mode for the Core Nano. HID Keyboard, HID Media, and HID Conferencing are supported.
Switching Modes
Use Q-SYS Core Manager to switch a Q-SYS Core Nano to I/O-Core Nano mode. For more information, see Utilities in the Core Manager Help.
Note: After switching to I/O-Core Nano 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 Nano opens Peripheral Manager, which you can also use to change the mode back to Core Nano mode.
Properties
I/O Core Nano 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
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.
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.
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 Nano's front panel, as well as flash an indicator in Q-SYS Configurator next to the associated I/O-Core Nano. 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.
Clock Offset
Indicates how much of an offset exists, in microseconds, between the I/O-Core Nano and the network Grandmaster.
Grandmaster
Indicates the current clock master of the network.
Processor Temp.
The current temperature, in Celsius, of the I/O-Core Nano processor.
Chassis Temp.
The current temperature, in Celsius, of the I/O-Core Nano chassis.
Parent Port
The clock Parent Port is the device and interface name to which the I/O-Core Nano is syncing. Typically, this is the Grandmaster.
Chassis Fan
Indicates the current RPMs of the I/O-Core Nano's 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.
