Preparing a system for iTX software

Installing the drivers

The SDI video card in an Output Server or Encode Server machine requires the correct device

driver. Grass Valley supply drivers for supported cards in the installation folder, iTX Suite. The

drivers are contained in a Zip file in the Drivers folder:

When you extract the Zip-file contents, various unzipped files appear in three folders. One of

the folders, called 1 - Drivers, has subfolders containing the driver installation files for different

types of video card:

The drivers are for the Xena 2Ke and the Corvid SDI video cards.
1.

After copying the iTX Suite folder to a machine, unzip the AJA Drivers Zip file.

2.

Install the required driver in one of the standard ways, depending on how the operating

system that is running on the machine responds to the presence of the SDI video card.
For example, start the Windows device-driver installation wizard from the Device Manager

control panel. See below, "Steps to follow when using the Hardware Update Wizard".
When prompted to specify the driver that is to be installed, select it from one of the

folders. Drivers are identified by files with the filename extension ".inf".

3.

Restart the machine.
