It is possible to change the assignment using the Edit pages sub-menu. This menu allows you to configure the page selection for the current input. As a workaround, you can use XEdit, open the layout that contains the text you wish to modify e. The Src box shows the current assignment. Page 56 Operation of the Monitor Wall Changing Crosspoints The video from the first video level assignment within the selected logical source appears in the video window.
When the current layout is reloaded, either of the following two situations may apply. Page 58 Operation of the Monitor Wall Changing Crosspoints The source signal displayed on the monitor is routed to the selected destination. Note: What you see on the wall is not a list of physical inputs, but of logical inputs labels. Even if the monitor is synchronized with an LTC source, frame count is not displayed. Keep pressing the key to cycle through all the available options, until the buttons show the appropriate settings.
This action can be assigned to a monitor on the monitor wall, it can be triggered by loading or unloading a layout, or it can be a background action. If two displays are connected to the multiviewer, then the resolution is applied to both. Page 67 Kaleido-X system. With a Kaleido-X, or Kaleido-X16, you can set the IP address, system name, and other parameters via a control panel on the monitor wall. Page 71 The cascade makes it possible to monitor up to 48 video inputs—in the case of a Kaleido-X16 cascade—, or up to 24 video Instead, there is a single multiviewer reset button that sends a reboot command to the multiviewer.
Page 74 Managing Kaleido-X Systems Opening the XEdit Software When first opening XEdit in offline mode, the database contains the default configuration for a Kaleido-X 7RU system, including a fully-populated frame all cards present and a set of predefined logical sources.
Connection status Multiviewer model System name System IP address It is also possible to verify which version of the Kaleido-X software is installed on this multiviewer, by moving to pointer to the system name in the System list. Disabling Access Control To disable access control 1 Connect to the multiviewer you wish to unprotect see Connecting to a Multiviewer, on page XEdit prompts you for a password. The Export to Multiviewer window appears, prompting you for the IP address of the multiviewer to which you wish to transfer the database.
Otherwise type the appropriate IP address in the box. A window appears, prompting you to confirm that you really want to export data to the multiviewer. Page 82 Managing Kaleido-X Systems Exporting a Database If you were working in offline mode, against a database imported from your existing cluster system, and all cluster members are currently available, then click OK to proceed. On the other hand, if a cluster member happens to be unavailable, or if you are cloning a cluster configuration to a different set of multiviewers, you may need to remove members from the selection and change IP addresses.
All cluster members now have the latest configuration from the local workspace. Creating a Backup Use the Create backup and Restore backup functions to manage copies of your system database. The resolutions are saved as an XEdit collection file, with a extension. If you have a different multiviewer model—i. Page 86 System list is selected. To represent a The next message prompts you about populating the database with a factory-default configuration for the selected multiviewer model.
Creating a cluster involves the following steps: 1 add multiviewers to your system 2 configure new rooms that include displays fed by the different multiviewers 3 create layouts for the new rooms 4 replicate RCP users from one multiviewer to all other systems that are part of the cluster You are now ready to add more multiviewers to the system.
The Add Multiviewer to Cluster window appears. A progress window appears while XEdit applies default settings to your new cluster configuration. Page 94 Managing Kaleido-X Systems Creating a Cluster Creating Rooms for a Cluster System Create rooms for the cluster system, by adding displays associated with the different multiviewers as appropriate. See Setting Up Rooms on page , for details.
XEdit will not let you use a name if there is already a room with this name associated with one of the multiviewers within the cluster. In XEdit, these virtual card slots are, for the most Page 96 Streams, on page When you import streams from a spreadsheet, this erases all previously imported streams and associated logical sources.
It may also overwrite streams that you had manually added and logical sources if they have the same name or index as a stream whose configuration is being imported. After a few minutes, if XEdit is connected to the multiviewer, all programs included in the transport streams are discovered. Note: The set of discovered programs does not necessarily match the programs listed in the spreadsheet.
Enter this information Index If your system involves a control panel from which you control your multiviewer as a router, set a source number for the logical source associated with this program to be available through the KX Router logical router, by entering the appropriate number in Enter the level name on the second heading row.
Sample spreadsheet: Additional static text levels area 5 Repeat this procedure until you have added the required information for all the programs you wish to monitor. The Multicast Stream Configuration window appears. The Unicast Stream Configuration window appears. Changes to the system are saved.
If you are not planning on adding these streams back to your system, then you may now wish to remove logical sources that were based on them: see Removing Logical Sources for Removed Programs in a Transport Stream, on You new system representation is saved.
If you wish to use default rooms and layouts as a starting point for building your system, you can either import the In some situations you may wish to repurpose an existing XEdit database that was designed for a specific multiviewer and use it with a different multiviewer model.
This section explains how to calibrate features related with the different signal types. Unlike other elements in a multiviewer configuration, system calibrations do not need to be saved. Zero dBFS corresponds to the maximum possible level. The brightness and contrast adjustment controls appear. Expand the headings to show the controls if they are not visible. Page Calibrating the Kaleido-X Multiviewer Output Calibrations This has the same effect as selecting every output head one by one, and adjusting the sliders to the same value for the selected parameter.
Note: If you want to apply the same values to all the other output heads in your system, you must click the Apply to all button for Green master FIRST, and then the Apply to all buttons for blue and red in any order. Page This has the same effect as selecting every output head one by one, and adjusting the Color saturation slider to the same value. Using these connectors, it is possible to feed keying material to the multiviewer. Page Calibrating the Kaleido-X Multiviewer Output Calibrations on your purposes, the content provided through the DVI input can be set either as a background or as a foreground for the layout shown on the monitor wall.
This has the same effect as configuring every output head one by one, and selecting the same keying mode for each. The audio monitoring delay adjustment control appears. Expand the Calibration heading to show the control if it is not visible. The expanded module will show the output heads. Depending on the multiviewer model, other items may also appear. A hierarchical list representing the current system appears. Select Zero VU.
The default value is dB, on a scale of dB to 0 dB. In the case of a Kaleido-X multiviewer model, one license is needed per input card. Alternatively, use the slider to set the page number. Page Router Output Calibrations You can type the value directly in the boxes, or use the slider controls. Page Configuring Alarms The general status manager GSM is the service responsible for central management of all alarm conditions within a monitoring and control system.
The alarms may be related to Miranda devices, or other supported third-party devices, and are organized into folders. The current status of each alarm is shown as an icon next to its name. The default debouncing parameters are as follows: Attribute Default value Range Description Set duration 15 seconds 0 s — s This is the time interval to wait before triggering an alarm once a probe has been in a continuous error state. Such a global alarm combines all the individual alarm statuses into an overall status, where the most critical events take precedence.
Example: Three alarms occur, two of which can be acknowledged without further action, while the other one is considered an Error.
The lines of text extracted from the video source metadata are displayed within the corresponding video window. By default the threshold is set at 8 IRE. Freeze sensitivity Freeze detection is done by comparing successive frames. An alarm is raised if all available channels are below the threshold. The default debouncing parameters see Alarm Debouncing, on page apply to most alarms.
To configure alarm debouncing 1 Connect to the multiviewer you wish to configure, if you wish to apply the changes in real time see Connecting to a Multiviewer, on page The Build Virtual Alarm window appears. Alarm providers Alarm browser 3 In the Status logic section, select one of the following three options: Virtual alarm status is best status among selected alarms AND — This causes the virtual alarm to reflect whether or not all of its sub-alarms have the same status.
Page Configuring Alarms Managing Virtual Alarms green or error red , but you want the error condition to be considered as minor yellow in the virtual alarm calculation. Alternatively, click the Actions tab. Refer to Creating Virtual Alarms, on page , as needed. The selected virtual alarm is removed from your configuration.
Managing Alarm Logging As part of the alarm calibration process, you can specify that an alarm, when triggered, be logged to an iControl application server that has a GSM log plug-in configured for this multiviewer. These significant events are flagged within the Kaleido-X system as alarms. The trap targets list shows all trap targets currently identified for the selected multiviewer. SNMP Managers that are trap targets for this multiviewer are identified by their host address and port number.
Page Logical Sources Logical Sources This chapter explain how to configure logical sources for your multiviewer system. Key Concepts Term Description Logical source A logical source called a channel, in earlier versions of the documentation refers to a group of physical audio, video, or metadata sources, and text attributes.
Page Logical Sources Creating and Configuring Logical Sources Automatically Adding Logical Sources A set of logical sources based on external video router sources or on multiviewer inputs can be added to the sources table, as a single operation, by clicking Create logical sources on the menu that appears when you right-click supported elements in the filtered system list.
Page Logical Sources Creating and Configuring Logical Sources A new entry appears in the sources table, with all assignments based on the logical source template see Defining Physical Assignments, on page Note: Under Source info, dynamic and static names resulting from the Name level assignments are limited to 48 characters and automatically truncated as needed.
Page 16 on input card A. On the Kaleido-X16, only the input numbers 01 to 16 appear. A logical source is added at the bottom of the sources table. Add level A new level appears under the selected category. Defining Physical Assignments Once you have created a logical source, you must make the physical assignments. This is required before you can create a layout. These three pre-set filters help reduce noise generated by the digital-to- analog conversion process, with each filter offering a different sonic option depending on the source material.
