5. Install the codec module into the K2 Summit system.

6. Start up the K2 Summit system.

On restart, the K2 Summit system rescans hardware and automatically discovers the codec option
card.

7. If a message appears, follow the instructions in the message to either restart or shutdown/startup.

This second startup process is necessary so that the K2 Summit system can reconfigure
appropriately.

8. After installing the card, start up and log on to the K2 Summit system with administrator privileges,

then load software onto the codec board as follows:

a) Stop all Grass Valley services except for

Grass Valley Host File Service

.

b) From the Windows command prompt, navigate to the following directory:

C:\profile

c) Type the following and press

Enter

.

srtploader -U

This ensures that the board is flashed with the proper version to be compatible with K2 software.

Next, license the K2 Summit system for K2 AppCenter Elite, if it is not already licensed. The license
enables the ChannelFlex functionality supported by the codec option card.

NOTE: Once a channel is operational, if you then remove the codec option card from the codec
module you must also delete

C:/profile/config/config.xml

. Failure to do so causes errors in

Configuration Manager.
