Configure GVAdmin account
This task applies to a computer on which EDIUS software is installed, as follows:
• GV STRATUS/EDIUS client PC
• EDIUS XRE Server

• GV STRATUS software is installed on the computer.

Install Grass Valley Prerequisite Files on the SiteConfig PC
Aurora products, including Aurora Playout, share Microsoft .NET as common prerequisite software.
This common software is installed with
Prerequisite Files 2.0.exe , which is part of a separate
installation package. You install this prerequisite software package on the control point PC so that
when SiteConfig deploys any software that needs the prerequisite software, it uses the software
installation files from the common package. This reduces the size of
.cab files overall and makes
software download more manageable.
1. Check release notes for the required version of prerequisite files, if any.
2. On the SiteConfig PC, open Windows Add/Remove programs and look for Grass Valley
Prerequisite Files , then proceed as follows:
• If the required version of prerequisite files is installed, do not proceed with this task.
• If prerequisite files are not installed or are not at the required version, proceed with this task.
3. Procure the required prerequisite software installation file as listed in the following:
Location Prerequisite file Product
Grass Valley website SiteConfig
Application software download page .
GrassValley_PrerequisiteFiles_2.0.0.zip
(Microsoft .NET installer) All Aurora
products
4. On the SiteConfig PC, run the installation file. The installation program copies prerequisite files
to C:\Program Files\Grass Valley\Prerequisite Files .
