SMS7000 Control System Configuration

Most of the Concerto configuration procedures are the same as for earlier
Grass Valley matrices. This section covers only those procedures which are
unique to, or required by Concerto. Concerto-specific procedures are
covered here in the order you would create a configuration. See the Series
7000 Configuration Manual
for details about the other configuration steps
and procedures.

Configured Node Controller

After setting

Enables

and

Limits

, begin configuring a Node Controller by

choosing

Node Controllers

on the

Setup

menu. Step through the various set-

tings documented in the Node Controller Configuration section of the
Series 7000 Configuration Manual.

Only one configured node controller is used per frame, regardless of the
number of signal types in that frame. Create a slice for each physical matrix.
If you are creating a slice that contains Analog Audio and Digital Audio
modules use the signal type of Digital Audio for the slice, then set the indi-
vidual output signal type to Analog Audio for the analog outputs.

Remember that for the Concerto,

Inputsize

and

Outputsize

must be in multi-

ples of 32 and cannot exceed 128,

Exp

must always be set to 0 (no expan-

sion), and

W/O

must always be set to 0 (outputs 1-128). Ensure that you

specify a signal (

Sig)

type appropriate for the Concerto boards in the slice

you’re configuring.

When choosing the Frame type for a Concerto, scroll to the bottom of the
drop down list under the

Frm

column and double-click frame option

certo Matrix

(

AES Attributes allow
individual settings for
inputs and outputs.

Do not use this feature to
change the AES signal
type.

Enter settings for up to
four slices (one per
board) for a Concerto in
this section.
