+Tick the 'Activate' check box to enable Services Synchronisation, then fill out the following fields:
+\\
+<file>
+Protocol            Multicast (Redis can be used in Cloud implementations where multicasts are not available)
+Mode                All (no other option)
+Pool Name           You can use any name, it must be unique. I generally use the channel/service name.
+Network interface   Set the network interface you wish the synchronisation comms to travel over.
+Address             The Multicast Address you wish to use (can be the same for all services)
+Port                Set the port you wish to use (can be the same on all services)
+The Multicast Address and Port can be the same as long as the Pool Name is unique on all services
+</file>
+This has to be configured the same on both 1+1 Encoders (or split encoders)
+\\
+\\
+----
+==== Dual Output Prevention ====
+Dual Output Prevention ensures that two encoders running in a 1+1 setup have only one encoder actually outputting a TS Multicast. Both encoders are encoding content, both are creating a TS, and (if required) statistical multiplexing, but the 'backup' encoder has its output 'muted'

+This section is similar to the 'services synchronisation' but has a few less settings:
+\\
+<file>
+Network Interface          The interface you wish to run the comms on (in this case, mngt is a teamed interface)
+Address                    The Multicast address for the messaging (can be the same for each service)
+Port                       The Multicast Port (can be the same for each service)
+Group name                 Must be a unique value, I normally use the channel/service name.
+The Multicast Address and Port can be the same as long as the Pool Name is unique on all services
+</file>
+\\
+\\
+----
+Remember that both 'Services Synchronisation' and 'Dual Output Prevention' only run in 1+1 scenarios.
