Status (QIO-WP-BT)

This topic covers the Status component for the QIO-WP-BT audio wall plate module and includes overall health status, network information, audio stream monitoring, and sensor data.

Link to Hardware information: QIO-WP-BT

Properties

Refer to the Properties Panel help topic for general information. In addition to standard Graphic and Script Access properties, the following properties are available:

Name

User-defined name for the device component. (Inherited from device properties.)

Location

User-defined physical location. (Inherited from device properties.)

Is Required

When set to Yes, Q-SYS Designer expects the device to be present on the network when the design runs. (Inherited from device properties.)

Dynamically Paired

When set to 'Yes', allows pairing the physical hardware dynamically in Core Manager. (Inherited from device properties.)

Audio Mode

Determines the type of audio streaming and bridging allowed by the connected Bluetooth device:

Media & Call Bridging: Paired devices can stream both phone call audio and media playback. Exposes a 2-channel (stereo) Bluetooth Input and 1-channel Bluetooth Output component.

Media Bridging: Paired devices can only stream audio from media applications (e.g., music playback). Phone call audio is blocked. Exposes a 2-channel (stereo) Bluetooth Input component.

Call Bridging: Paired devices can only stream bi-directional audio for phone calls. Exposes a 1-channel Bluetooth Input and 1-channel Bluetooth Output component.

AuraCast: Broadcasts audio to multiple supported receiving devices simultaneously. Exposes a 2-channel (stereo) Bluetooth Output component.

Verbose

When set to 'Yes', a Details section displays in the control panel with device statistics and errors, along with a Reset button. Additionally, the Input Details and Output Details fields appear depending on the presence of audio input or output components in the schematic.

Controls

The controls for the QIO-WP-BT Status component are organized into sections matching the Control Panel group boxes.

Status

ID

When the ID (Identify) button is pressed in the Status component, Configurator's Network Configuration, or on the physical hardware, the ID buttons and the physical hardware LED flash to indicate association.

Indicators flash for 5 minutes unless stopped by pressing any of the ID buttons.

Note: ID mode overrides all other LED control modes.

Status LED

Changes color to indicate the current operating condition of the device. See Status for color definitions.

Status

Displays color-coded text messages indicating the current status of the active device:

Component status is conveyed with the Status LED and Status box, which uses both color and text to indicate the current condition:

Processor Temp

Displays the current processor temperature for the primary module in degrees Centigrade (°C).

Details

Displays text indicating cumulative statistics and errors occurring with the device. Updates regularly. (Only visible when Verbose is set to Yes.)

Reset Details

Click this button to reset the statistics in the Details field to zero. (Only visible when Verbose is set to Yes.)

Audio Streams

Note: This section only appears if an audio input or output component from this inventory item is present in the schematic.

Input OK

LED indicating the status of the network audio input stream:

Input Details

Displays detailed packet and stream statistics for the input audio stream (e.g., accept count, drop count, missing count, latency timing). (Only visible when an input component is in the schematic and Verbose is set to Yes.)

Output OK

LED indicating the status of the network audio output stream:

On (Green): Output stream is active and healthy.

Off: No output stream or stream error.

(Only visible if an output component is in the schematic.)

Output Details

Displays detailed packet and stream statistics for the output audio stream. (Only visible when an output component is in the schematic and Verbose is set to Yes.)

Stream Reset Details

Click this button to reset input and output audio stream statistics to zero. (Only visible when an input/output component is in the schematic and Verbose is set to Yes.)

Network

Grandmaster

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

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.

 

LAN A

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.

Speed

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

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.
