Transfer compatibility considerations
When transferring material between K2 systems and other Grass Valley products, you
must consider the specifications of the different products. The following table
illustrates some of these considerations:
Also refer to “Transferring between different types of systems” on page 68 .
Also refer to “Protocols supported” on page 138 .
Control point PC system requirements
If you are building your own control point PC, the machine you chose must meet the
following requirements. These requirements assume that the PC is dedicated to its
function as the control point for the K2 Media Client and that no other applications
run on the PC that could interfere with system performance.
Setting Value Comments
Disk Prerolls 10 frames —
Frames to send Play early
(Preroll Play) 10 frames These two settings should be the same as the Disk
Prerolls setting. However, if there is extra fixed
latency in your RS-422 communication path, you
might need to adjust the settings differently.
Frames to send Record early
(Preroll Record) 10 frames
Disk Port Comm Timeout 60 frames This is the minimum required by K2. Do not use the
Harris default value, which is 10.
Back To Back Rec Unchecked K2 does not support this feature.
