Pairing the Decoder with Haivision EMS

Haivision EMS (Element Management System) allows simple management of Haivision-only devices. To get started, enable the EMS service on the Makito X4 decoder and then pair the decoder with Haivision-EMS. This allows the EMS to communicate with the decoder, for example, to monitor the connection status. 

To manage a Makito X4 device through Haivision-EMS, the device must first be discovered and paired with the system.

Note

For device discovery to work, mDNS must be enabled on each of the Makito X4 devices you wish to pair.

To pair the Makito X4 decoder with Haivision-EMS:

  1. On the Services page, toggle the EMS button to On . 
    The EMS settings now appear:
  2. Enter the passcode (copied and pasted from Haivision EMS).

    Note

    On a new system, the EMS Address and Port are blank. When a pairing code is pasted in, the address and port are automatically filled in to reflect the IP address and port contained in the pairing code. 

    (Optional) You may change the EMS Address and Port in order to override the defaults extracted from the paring code, for example, to accommodate network security requirements.

  3. (Optional) Increase the value in the Keep Alive field to ensure the Makito X can be paired with EMS and remain connected during file transfer.

    The Keep Alive value is also filled in when the pairing code is pasted in. "Keep Alive" is the time interval in seconds in which the device will ping the EMS server to maintain its connection. 

  4. Click Pair.
    This initiates the pairing and communication with the EMS server.


To unpair the Makito X4 decoder from Haivision-EMS:

  1. On the Haivision EMS dialog, click Unpair.

    The unpairing takes effect immediately.
