For more details check out the video at the top of the article.

Trigger Mode: how do you want to fail over? Audio, MIDI, Either (which means if either drops, you fail over), or Both (requires both audio and midi to fail).

Auto Arm: Automatically arm failover from A to B.

Auto Switch to Scene A: If the computer for Scene A is connected and good, automatically switch over to Scene A. This is useful if you want to automatically jump back to A after a failover to B.

Audio Trigger, Audio Channel, and Audio Timeout: Only enabled when audio is chosen as part of failover. The trigger can be that the host is connected, audio is recognized, or whether the failover signal from LifeSine is cut. Audio Channel designates which channel LifeSine is expected on (default 13). Audio Timeout designates how fast the failover should kick in (default 2ms).

MIDI Trigger, MIDI Channel, and MIDI Timeout: Only enabled when midi is chosen as part of failover. The trigger can be that the host is connected, midi is recognized, or whether the failover signal is cut. MIDI Channel designates which channel the failover signal is expected on (defaults to 1, but any channel is great). MIDI Timeout designates how fast the failover should kick in (default 100ms).

Send MIDI on Failover: If you’re sending MIDI to both USB Ports, you might want to manually send a clear down to your instruments on failover. If that’s a prudent move for your configuration, you can choose a combination of Sustain Pedal Off, All Sound Off, All Notes Off, or Reset All Controls. You can control which MIDI channels and MIDI ports this is sent to by default.
