Please observe the topology below to correctly configure your SX40 system for Processor Redundancy.

rn

rn

rn
• Both processors may be fed from the same video source if required. HDMI/SDI through can be used, but isn’t recommended; an upstream splitter is preferable

rn

• Each processor may be fed from a completely independent video source if required. These may be different formats (HDMI/SDI), resolutions, framerates, etc. – there’s no requirement for any aspect of the sources to match

rn

• Can be used with or without closed loop redundancy (image above shown with closed loop redundancy)

rn

• XD firmware must be updated for redundancy to function correctly

rn

• Failover, when triggered, takes approximately 2-3 seconds for panels to be re-associated to the backup processor, during this time, no video will be shown

rn

• Once the system has been cabled correctly, redundancy should be enabled and the correct role set for each processor under the Failover tab

Our processor User Interface now has Chinese language support. This can be accessed from the Preferences menu, under the Language section using the change language dropdown. ​

rn

Fixtures can now be rotated in increments of 90 degrees on the Tessera SX40 LED processor.

rn

Restore factory defaults/format SD card can cause fixture library instability
​If you perform either of these operations please reboot your processor before browsing to the fixture library window as this may otherwise be unstable.​

rn

​Settings from Tessera Control are not applied to newly discovered fixtures
If using Tessera Control to alter Brightness, Temperature or Gamma, these settings are not sent to newly discovered fixtures until a change is made to the value. ​

rn

​Tessera Remote and Tessera Control may not work on Mac OSX El Capitan
When running on a Mac OSX El Capitan the Tessera Remote and Tessera Control applications can fail to detect network ports. This appears to be limited to cases where no default gateway is specified on the computer’s network interface.

rn

In situations where no default gateway is set using DHCP, we recommend specifying a default gateway manually. PCs running Windows and Macs running OSX Yosemite or earlier are not affected. ​

rn

Tessera Remote may fail to import project files
In some cases Tessera Remote may fail to import project files from local storage. As a workaround create the project from scratch, or use a local monitor, keyboard and mouse to import the project file before connecting with Tessera Remote. ​

rn

​Some input devices on KVM switches do not work
We have had reports that trackpads may not function correctly when connected to the processor via a KVM switch. As a workaround we recommend using a mouse, or connecting input devices directly to the processor’s USB ports. ​

rn

​Monitors connected via DisplayPort-to-VGA adapters may be unstable
Local user interface monitors connected to the processor via certian active DisplayPort-to-VGA adapters may give an unstable image or the monitor is not detected at all. As a workaround we recommend using a DVI or DisplayPort monitor.
