Grass Valley VM 3000 System Controllers v.7.4 - Manual (Page 92)

Hardware Installation
2−20 VM 3000 Installation and Operating Manual
Software Configuration
The VM 3000 connected to the Encore must be configured using the Network Description table (page 5−22) and Serial Proto-
col table (page 5−25).
When Jupiter is controlling Encore, the Serial protocol setting is: GNP (Grass Valley Native Protocol), 9600 baud.
The router must be defined on the Switcher Description table (page 5−31). From that point, switcher inputs, outputs, a CP
Level Set, and CP input/Output Sets must be defined.
Note: If Encore is controlling Jupiter, different software settings are required. See page 2−82.
Redundant Installation
Some Encore systems may be equipped with redundant System Controller Boards (SCBs). In this case, the recommended
arrangement is to install a redundant VM 3000 and connect the VMs to the SCBs with a double−Y cable. See Figure 2−23.
