Jupiter L-S Series Control Panels Installation and Operating Manual
Glossary
CPL
Control Point Language. Protocol used to
control Trinix router through Encore / SMS
7000 Ethernet connection to NR-33000
Broadlinx board.
crosspoint
Distribution switcher circuit where input sig-
nal can be connected to output bus.
crosspoint bus
Also called the matrix bus. A five-pair bus
that carries switching and status commands
between the crosspoint (matrix) cards and
the control device.
CRS
Concerto Routing Switcher.
D
DDE
Dynamic Data Exchange. A form of inter-
protocol communication that uses shared
memory to exchange data between applica-
tions.
delegation
Use of a special control panel or supervisory
display to restrict control of a specific VTR to
a particular control panel or panels. The del-
egation process does not actually connect a
control panel to a machine; rather, it allows
the connection to be made using the normal
machine linkage procedures. See also Link-
age.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Pro-
vides automatic TCP/IP configuration when
a DHCP server is present on the network.
DVB-ASI
Digital Video Broadcasting -Asynchronous
Serial Interface.
DSP
Digital signal processor.
E
EBU
European Broadcasting Union. Internet ad-
dress: http://www.ebu.ch/.
ESbus
Nickname for EBU/SMPTE RS-422 bus pro-
tocol for remote control of television produc-
tion equipment using a full-duplex four-
wire, asynchronous serial, 38.4 kbits/s digi-
tal channel. Connectors are 9-pin D. Incorpo-
rates ANSI-SMPTE 207M and
Recommended Practice 113. The Jupiter Seri-
al bus is designed to be compatible with ES-
bus; however, the serial data cable supplied
by Thomson uses only 5 conductors. (In Jupi-
ter systems, “ESbus” usually refers to VTR
control.)
EScontrol
Control of a “remote” (non-crosspoint bus)
routing switcher using proposed ES
BUS
rout-
ing switcher dialect. Also referred to as “ES-
bus Router
” protocol.
ESnet
Nickname for EBU/SMPTE proposed proto-
col for remote control of television produc-
tion equipment based on
THIN
NET
.
ESswitch
control of a routing switcher using a third-
party computer operating according to the
proposed ES
BUS
routing switcher dialect.
Also referred to as “ES
BUS
T
RIBUTARY
” proto-
col.
