RDS Encoder Check

Keep an eye on your RDS encoders

  • Failed alive checks are signalled in three different ways:
    • SNMP trap
    • Digital I/O modules
    • Writing an entry to the Windows Event Log
  • Monitor spare encoder takeover
    • Active spare encoders are signalled via SNMP
  • Monitor PI of all encoders for data consistency check
    • In case of a wrong PI (e. g. when replacing an encoder with a brand new one) the encoder will get initialized with the data from Arcos Network used to set up the encoders.
  • Runs smoothly in the background as a Windows service
  • Tight integration with the OCTO IP Server and Router

Overview

The RDS Encoder Check will help you to monitor your RDS encoder network, as it does provide an alive-check (heart beat) for every encoder; it will even reinitialize an encoder in case it does find an inconsistency in the encoder data.
It is tightly integrated with the other 2wcom software products: Arcos Network can be used to provide the necessary encoder information, the OCTO IP server is recommended to do the necessary routing to the encoders.
