VistaLINK® PRO PLUS

SNMP Monitoring & Control Software for all Applications

VistaLINK® PRO

VistaLINK® & SNMP: The real "plus" of SNMP is its simplicity. Through VistaLINK®, thousands of network nodes are monitored and configured world-wide via SNMP. VistaLINK® PRO and VistaLINK® PRO PLUS unite all SNMP-based equipment from Evertz® and beyond, providing monitoring & configuration capabilities for your mission critical needs. VistaLINK® is the most complete & comprehensive entirely SNMP-based signal monitoring & equipment configuration solution.

Features include terminal equipment configuration & monitoring (on the same module), fiber module health status & link monitoring, discrete signal monitoring, multi-wall display monitoring and monitoring-by-exception solutions.

Simple, reliable, secure and efficient network monitoring a control for your facility equipment through VistaLINK® and SNMP. All of Evertz® VistaLINK® -capable products have built-in probing and monitoring.

Effective and simple-to-use graphics, unparalleled drill-down information, external notification tools, and a network efficient SNMP monitoring & configuration architecture. VistaLINK® PRO PLUS provides you with all the details.
Configuration Management: VistaLINK® PRO configuration software (VLPRO-C) is provided free to users allowing unlimited configuration capabilities for Evertz® VistaLINK® -capable equipment.
Alarm/Event Notification Client: Expand the VistaLINK® PRO configuration tool by adding centralized alarm management. Define & set critical alarms, alarm severities and filters. Built-in external alarm notification tools include audible alerts, “smart” email notification and/or contract closure triggers.

VistaLINK® PRO PLUS: Building on standard VistaLINK® PRO configuration clients, add user-configurable pictoral representations of your broadcast facility - local and remote. Start with global perspectives and drill down to specific rack and frame layouts or consolidate important status information and direct configuration control on a single display.

Import facility block diagrams or generate an off-line simulation using virtual equipment and graphics from the VistaLINK® media library. Link multiple views for the most effective facility or application presentation. Integrate your VistaLINK® PRO PLUS graphic screens with a VIP™ or MVP® and get the best of both on-screen signal display and network monitoring & configuration.
Scheduling and Auto-Response: Automate facility monitoring & configuration operations or limit false alarming by scheduling changes based on times & dates or events. Program hardware & router changes to be triggered by incoming alarms or exceeded parameter thresholds. Combine routines and Boolean logic to create complex automated logic response systems. Routines can be created within the program wizard or via external scripting mechanisms.
Monitor Web Clients: Unlock the capability of a remote system or facility health monitoring solution through VistaLINK® PRO + WEB clients. Go beyond a firewall to monitor your facility conveniently through a browser, while receiving email and pager fault notifications as they occur.
Third-Party Monitoring & Interfacing: For Third-party SNMP-enabled or legacy equipment monitoring & configuration, VistaLINK® may be extended to unify all of your system monitoring needs in one package.
Router Control: Evertz® and third-party router control provides full X-Y style panels or custom user-created virtual panels to handle even the most specific router control needs. ThumbLINK®: Video, audio and data signal monitoring is enhanced in VistaLINK® through the ability to view thumbnail images from supporting modules, which can be viewed in separate windows or embedded into custom user-designed graphics client UI screens.

VistaLINK® provides a fully user-constructable, graphical environment.
Start with global perspectives, and drill down to specific rack and
frame layouts or consolidate important status info and
direct configuration control on a single display.

Network Control Panels

The 1RU 9000NCP, 2RU 9000NCP2 and the more advanced CP-2200E are rack mounted control panel interfaces to VistaLINK® -capable modules, allowing for real-time selection & configuration control of enabled parameters through SNMP.

These network control panels can be used to control a subset of an enabled module's full parameter set - usually the "proc amp" - and operational parameters such as video & audio level adjustments and gain control. All panels connect to the network via Ethernet and can be further customized with user-specific labels and preset quick-access configuration buttons.

VistaLINK® Features

Simplify Complex Control and Monitoring
By better managing and maintaining the output quality and consistency of a broadcast service the benefit of a quality monitoring and control system is realized. VistaLINK® PRO allows operators the ability to rapidly diagnosis and correct system faults. VistaLINK® PRO provides intuitive easy to understand interfaces for even the most complex broadcast systems, focusing the operator on the root cause of a problem or fault.

Monitoring “Everything”, View by Exception
By using Evertz multi-input monitoring electronics, VistaLINK® PRO provides a monitored by exception environment. Keying operators to real faults and not requiring unnecessary maintenance of good channels increases the operators efficiency and reduces Mean Time to Repair (MTTR).

VistaLINK® Capabilities

By expanding its reach and centralizing your monitoring and control system needs, VistaLINK® PRO lowers CAPEX by reducing the amount of systems you initially need to deploy to successfully manage the complete operation. VistaLINK® PRO's more powerful toolset and monitoring by exception functionality also lowers OPEX by improving operator efficiency and speed.

VistaLINK® & SNMP - Simple, Reliable, Secure & Efficient

Integration Convenience Via Interoperability

Similar to a number of other equipment interoperability efforts underway, Evertz has initiated a partnership effort with third-party SNMP Network Control System developers to proactively develop SNMP communication interfaces, offering end-users, with existing SNMP Network Managers and Control Systems, a proven solution for interfacing to Evertz equipment. Evertz's VistaLINK® Partnership Program is not only intended to establish end-user confidence with SNMP applications, but also reduces development time and expenses surrounding potentially extensive implementation issues or the need for yet another SNMP Manager.
