Appendix A Remote control protocols
Using BVW protocol to control K2 systems
BVW commands are available via RS-422 serial ports.
A subset of BVW commands is supported through AppCenter in protocol mode.
Insert/Edit is not supported.
E to E commands have no effect on the HD-00 K2 Media Client. Do not issue E to E
commands to the HD-00 K2 Media Client. Also refer to
“Loop through and E to E”
on page 38
.
In AppCenter, you must set a channel’s options to enable protocol control of the
channel. Subsequently, when the K2 client starts up, the channel is immediately
available for protocol control. Manual log on is not required.
For channels in gang mode, the protocol must connect to the lowest numbered channel
in the gang. This is required to support jog/shuttle of ganged channels.
Loop-play mode on the K2 Media Client is not supported.
To set in and out points with BVW protocol, load clips only from the working bin.
The BVW extended device type request (00.11.00) command returns a unique value
for SD-00 K2 Media Clients (D8.03) and HD-00 K2 Media Clients (D8.04).
