Just took delivery of an Ultrix Carbonite and so far I am loving it. I assume the MicroSD card in the back is for the system drive, however it has me wondering if I can also use it as a secure media store.

Has anyone gotten Rosstalk Crosspoint Commands to work in #Ultrix now that it is supported in version 4.5? Typically an XPT command for a switcher requires identifying the "bus". I'm not sure how to translate that into the Ultrix world. Any example Ultrix commands would be greatly apricated. --- ...
